Randomness

The last month has been a mix of low key days around the house and weekend adventures. I am loving the balance of staying home with little Reese while knowing that come Friday, our family will get out and explore something new. I love spending time with this sweet lady!

Friday we headed out to have dinner at Palmer Gulch with the Jacobs. We decided not to camp out but after seeing the grounds, we will definately have to go back when Reese is older... I don't mind camping for a night or two and know that camping is where the good memories are made!

Saturday we went to Bear Country USA- a drive through safari outside of town. We did see bears, and mountain lions, wolves, big horn sheep- I held Reese in  my lap and by the end of the drive she had fallen asleep. Then we ate at Olive Garden which was so comforting to me! Their salad and breadsticks are the same across the country and there is something soothing about that haha.

I am reading 'The Middle Place' right now and it is one of those books that fills your mind throughout the day. I love when a book is like that, it makes you think in new ways or consider things afresh- I firmly believe that life is more enjoyable when you are in the midst of a good read.

We finally pieced Reese's room together. I wanted it to have a slightly magical feel, some kind of special component. While there are a few touches still left to add, I think we achieved the look I wanted. It is a nice place to rock Reese during those quiet moments during the day when we both need a little bit of cheer and coziness.
