Sophie’s Zoo-Themed 3rd Birthday Party

Sophie’s Zoo-Themed 3rd Birthday Party

Sophie turned 3 on October 16! It's hard to believe she's been a 3-year-old for a month already. Where has the time gone? Like we do every year, we had an early birthday party for Sophie (her birthday falls right in the middle of our busy harvest season around here!). But it's still just as special - plus, I'm of the opinion that having your birthday party on a different day than your birthday just spreads the celebration out more! How fun! :) Celebrating a couple weeks later on her actual … [Read more...]

Crockpot Apple Pear Spice Cake

Happy fall, friends! It certainly feels like autumn in Minnesota today! It feels like 51 degrees here - windy, blustery, and lovely with leaves starting to change!

If you haven't heard yet, I have a YouTube channel as well, where I share snippets of our daily life, food, homeschooling, and more. I'd be honored if you'd head over there to … [Read more...]

13 Habits + Rhythms That Make a Big Difference for Me:

13 Habits + Rhythms That Make a Big Difference for Me:

I'm such a creature of habit. Are you like that, too? I suspect that most of us are - it's just human nature to gravitate towards what worked well for us last time! While there are times I certainly enjoy diving into something new (usually for me it's a fun new recipe to try), I've found that a good part of my emotional wellbeing - my general "settledness" - relies on peaceful, predictable routines in my daily life. Some of these rhythms have come and gone for me over the years, but as time … [Read more...]

Our Family Vacation to Door County, Wisconsin

Our Family Vacation to Door County, Wisconsin

Remember how my last blog post said, "I'm back!" ?? And how that was two whole months ago? Haha. Oh dear. It has been a busy summer (which is an understatement!). I know that 2020 has been quite the year for people all around the world. Here's a bit of a life update in the Olson home: In January, my husband Bjorn publicly announced he was running for the Minnesota House of Representatives. Our District has a seat that will soon be vacated. There was an endorsing convention (where delegates … [Read more...]
