Donut Walks are the Best Walks

Smoothie face cutie.

This kid gets in so much trouble, but he's darn cute.

Another snowstorm rolled through our parts. Unlike most Minnesotan's I wasn't surprised to see another one this winter.

It snows, like, every April, folks.

Our first stop was donuts at Bogart's, but we weren't sure if they'd have anything left.

Did we make it before the doughnuts sold out?

I guess we made it.

They must be making more because there never is this many at this time of the day.

Brooke was clearly happy to have her pick of donuts.

Of course Meadow picked sprinkles, but the donut started falling apart along the walk.

Next we walked over to Uptown.

Little buddy was getting sleepy.

We walked into Papersource because I thought Meadow would dig it.

 I knew she'd love this store.

We also went to CB2 to look at some couches and beds. Maybe this year will be the year we get adult furniture.

Meadow really wanted this mirror. The circle one in the pink rock.

Hint, hint, Aunt Jen.

We also stopped in H&M. Meadow got a different dress and I got a sweater.

The main reason for our walk was to go the library. 

Even with no stairs in our unit Theo is an old pro at getting up and down them.

Yup.

We went to Sotarol for lupper. I'd had the food truck before, but no one else had been here.

Meadow was excited to read her new books.

My sushi burrito was so good.

Still reading.

Meadow's shrimp fried rice was so good.




When we were walking back I saw that Mohn Electric was closing. How sad.

They helped us build our chandelier in our old house.

Lately Meadow has been asking for a pet. I found my old Tamagotchi while looking for something else and thought it would be perfect for Meadow.

One of our neighbors messaged me and asked if Meadow wanted a chicken suit. I said yes and picked it up.

Mending, movies and popcorn.

A few days later the weather warmed up and most of the snow melted. 

So, we went for a family bike ride.

Gotta love biking with the kiddos and this gal.

Over the River & Through the Woods to Grandmothers House We Clean

My mom had wanted us to come down to my grandparents home to clean for months. Unfortunately a busy summer had kept us away. We finally made it a week after our honeymoon ended. We slept at my parents home in Cudahy before heading down to Racine. We got home from our trip on Tuesday and left for Milwaukee on Thursday. It was almost like an extended vacation. Before leaving the cities we stopped and had dinner at Foxy Falafel. It was pretty good and I like that she uses sprouted chickpeas.  I never knew my grandparents on Poppyseed Tuska's side so Grandma and Grandpa Wojcik were a special part of my life. They both passed away last year after living nearly 90 wonderful years.  Their home was always a wonderfully warm and inviting place. The perfect place to spend your Christmas Eve in front of a fire place. Since it's going to be sold, Brooke and I took on the massive task of organizing and cleaning the home. When Scott told me h...

Honeymoon: Locks, Falls and a Damn Ankle

Once we decided to exit stage Mackinac, we had to decide what to do asap.

Sisters, a Brother and Walking Chicago

  Summer always seems to mean one thing: weddings. Whether I'm shooting or attending, we're bound to end up at a few every year.  This time around we were heading down to Chicago from my big sister Katrina's nuptials. I feel like all our vacations are centered around a wedding or something wedding related. I wish we could go on a vacation without having to worry about being somewhere.   It also means a few repetitive trips down I-94. There aren't nearly enough unique stops off the interstate. One outlier is Foster Cheese Haus , the only organic Wisconsin cheese shop I know of. Run by the folks behind Castle Rock Organic Farms , we always try to stop by. Unfortunately for us they were closed on Wednesdays, but at least we got to spy on their darling garden out front.    Brooke and I arrived in Necedah. We decided to stop at Brooke's sister Brittany's home along the way to cut the ride in half and get her dressed hemmed.   ...
