4th of July fun!

These girls have been some real life savers! They gave me so much confidence to do all the projects that we did together that you'll see below. Kristy and Dalan on the left, and Allyse and Rob in the middle, and no we didn't plan the red and blue, but it was the 4th of July! I led a sing-a-long which was absolutely hilarious with a bunch of adults singing "This land is your land" and "I'm proud to be an American" It was only after those two songs that I noticed all of the kids had gone to play at the playground....ha haBeautiful Stillwater and Taylors Falls...our first explorations

Big Changes

We are really enjoying the move to Minneapolis. Pete likes his job a lot, but it is a bit stressful. Things are great here, recently I got a job with the International School of Minnesota which is so exciting! This summer I have taken up homemaking. It is pretty fun!! Here are a few pictures to show our trip out here and my projects.

We painted an accent wall a tranquil gray blue which was really fun to do together, and we like how it turned out.Here was our dining room, and then we did a little shabby chic - ing to it.

Here are the napkins that my friends and I made into pillows.

Ah, Mackinac Island!! How fun that little place was!! Imagine, a whole island with no cars....just bikes, boats, and carriages!
