Would you believe me if I told you I had a graduating class of eleven? Yes, 11! For those of you who don't know, I was born, raised, and still live in South Dakota. I grew up in a town of maybe 500 people. Our class was not the smallest in the school, but it was one of the smaller classes. I think the biggest class during that time period was maybe 20 students. Why am I telling you all of this? ...
Fall Travel Guide for the Black Hills of South Dakota
Many people visit the Black Hills of South Dakota during the summer months, but they often don't realize how much more exciting it is if they'd come back in the fall. The colors might not be the same as those of the upper Northeast states, but they're still pretty spectacular! A favorite of ours when we visit family in the Black Hills is driving through Spearfish Canyon. You can drive ...
God’s Church Will ALWAYS Take You Back

I am not a medical expert, but I am a ...
Why We Meal Plan {And How You Can Too!}
You've heard other people talk about it. You might even know a few people who do it. But how - and why - should you get on that meal planning bandwagon? Meal planning is really not all that hard! My husband and I started after we got married. At first, he hated it. He says I plan too much. (Is there such a thing?) He said we would run out of food. (We haven't.) He said he would go hungry. (He ...
Keeping Connected to Family When You Live Far Away
In today's world, many times we live far from some of our family. My husband and I are about 2.5 hours from our closest family members. Little J's grandparents all live about three hours away, and we have some siblings and cousins that are 6+ hours away. It can be hard to stay in touch! Thankfully with social media, it is much easier than it was years ago! Imagine this - my grandma ...
