Every year, one of our favorite traditions is our annual girls’ trip to the city to launch the holiday season. This year we ended up being a tad limited in what we could do because I can’t walk too much after my knee surgery, but we had a blast nonetheless, and once again it was […]
Holly is back!!!! (You can see her work from previous years here!) It’s been a somewhat stressful few months around here, so I am so excited to have her around again because she is making me smile pretty much every day… In our family the Elf on the Shelf is a little different, because of […]
I made it through another 30 days of daily shooting! As much as I love my camera, I find it so difficult to pick it up every day. This month it was so wonderful to have a group of women to do it with—The Photographer Within is definitely one of my Thankful things for 2014! […]

I feel so badly to have neglected my blog for so long—life just got ahead of me over the last half of the summer! But there is one more very important event that desperately deserves to be posted, and that is my wonderful in-laws’ 50th anniversary party in Minnesota. Marriage is at once beautifully rewarding […]
