Just about everyone has a Bucket List, right? At least an unofficial one? On my Bucket List are two very important things to me. One is to see the Grand Canyon someday, and the other is to run a marathon. As my luck would have it, The Grand Canyon itself actually hosts a marathon every…

This has been a dream of mine for a long time… to recklessly attack an event with an energy and abandon known only to small children. I had heard about the Dirty Dash held at Bogus Basin, Boise’s local ski resort. I hadn’t heard amazing things about it, but when the opportunity arose to run…

I have been SO excited about getting this blog on a roll. I wanted our Baby Jace to have a new blog to feature all the amazing things that he is experiencing and that WE are experiencing as new parents. Many thanks to Nate for designing this for me, and for being EXTREMELY patient as…

We will be in Utah for Stephanie’s shower April 2nd from 6-8pm in Highland (near the point of the mountain between SLC and Provo). We would love to see you!

Summer Reading [I LOVE reading and I came across some great books this summer. Click on 'Luisa's Bookshelf' on the sidebar to see my ratings and reviews]. Summer Releases [Nate and I LOVED this movie. It might not have been perfect, but it left us thinking, wondering, discussing and wanting to see it again. For…

I have this theory that Nate's Power Balance Bands are causing grey hair! Ha! I also believe we can walk through walls . . . but that's another story. But seriously, Luisa, you are one of my favorite blog writers. Can't wait for your debut today on Perkes Photography!
Hugs!

I can’t even believe that the summer is over… *sigh*. I love the sun and the heat, and BBQ’s and having a tan, and gardening and boating and watermelon. I could digress endlessly. I’ve actually been pestering Nate a little about moving to a place with perpetual summers: Arizona, St. George, Southern California… but no….

Luisa!! I love your hat in those pictures…where did you get it?? I want one!!
Hello Darling!
Love the post! Thanks so much for keeping track of our CRAZY but fun lives. You're the best. ; )
I CUT MY HAIR!!! At first it was a very terrifying experience; this was the shortest its ever been in my life. I didn’t know how to style it; it turned out different every time. I needed product and accessories and time…. ahhhh! But now, it’s just fun. It was perfect to have on our…

bobby i love it!!! it looks awesome, of course you would look beautiful with any kind of hair!! i miss you.. see you soon !!
Looks great girl! You will have fun changing it and flipping out or flipping in, or doing the wavy thing. Me gusta.
I LLLLOOOVVVEEE IT! You look beautiful!! I always try to have cute short hair but it never works. This looks SO good on you!
It’s really not that our lives have become less interesting, because they haven’t. Or maybe they have and I’m just in denial. I’ve missed my old friend, “the blog”. I’m sure Nate hasn’t really missed me obsessing over the what, where, when’s, why’s and how’s of posting. But I sure have missed the obsession. January…

[...] after my house was ‘in order’, I started just MAKING stuff. Now, Nate got me a sewing machine for Valentines Day last year [YAY!!] and I am SO proud to say that I have put that baby to good [...]
Cute post!
Ok so I peaked…that little dress is beautiful…I coulnd't help but wonder
I texted you the measurements. Hopefully I sent my text to the right number this time.
You are truly amazing. i love and miss you.
Hey Luisa! Today is Dolan's birthday and his all-time favorite treat is oreos, so I just finished making the Oreo balls to surprise him when he gets home! They are delish!!! Thanks for sharing.
Good job Luisa!! I've been trying to improve my sewing skills lately too!! Thanks for that recipe–those sound/look soooo yummy!!!
I'm totally jealous! I just told Dane that the next big purchase I'd like would be a sewing machine! I'm impressed with that dress you made. My skills include sewing two pieces of cloth together… That's it!
Luisa:
LOVE the blog; totally understand the sabbatical–we're in one too! Great dress. Can't wait to see Brooke in it.
And Nate's talent for flipping crepes behind his back is HILARIOUS!
Always love a peek into your fun lives!
Hugs and love,
–Dad
