I decided to bring back the photo diary. I enjoy looking back at the posts to see how I used to live my life.



As winter goes on the lazier I get on Sundays. Scott is worse then me, he is still in bed after I get up.



Scott had breakfast when we went out on Saturday to Mickey's. So we have brownies instead.



Just kidding. I have steel cut oats and a banana. I eat out of the pot to save on dishes.



Scott has chips and salsa.



Our shower has been broken for 2 weeks, this time the handle broke off.



We finally get dressed. It's warmer out in Minnesota so no long sleeved shirt today.



First we install our new doorbell.



Good thing there's an app for that.




Yay!



We head over to our local Menards. The store is closing so everything is super cheap.



We load up on things we might need.



We stop at a vintage pop up shop. It's the last day and everything is half off.



Then we head over to Home Depot for things Menards didn't have. Some &#$% stole our cart that had my reusable bag in it. I try not to get too upset in hopes that the person who took it used it for their purchases instead of a plastic bag.



We bought a bunch of seeds for our garden. I can't wait for spring.



We make dinner, aka breakfast.



Spinach and eggs. It looks like a mess but it was tasty.



I end the night by making chocolate heartlettes in honor of valentines tomorrow.

The tile artwork looks good against the red wall.

Japan Family Trip - Part II: Exploring the Shrines and Wilds of Nikko

We had originally planned on taking the bullet train down from Tokyo to Kyoto for a day or two. While being epically fast, it was a bit spendy for the four of us.  After talking to Brooke's coworker we settled on a two day trip to Nikko and its World Heritage Sites to break up our week in Tokyo. This turned out to be an amazing decision. The town is teaming with beauty from ancient shrines to epic waterfalls and some of the best meals we had on our trip. Kyoto didn't seem all that appealing to me when I started researching which location to go to. I too am glad we chose to head north to Nikko.  When we booked our Tobu Nikko Spacia X tickets I upgraded to the premium seats thinking that we'd be sitting facing one another. Instead we ended up with 4 individual seats, two in the first two rows and two in the last two rows. It turned out just fine with the kids sitting in front of us in two groups. Meadow and I were seated at the front of the car. Once in awhile we'd pas...

Backcountry Camping with Kids in Theodore Roosevelt National Park

Day 1  Back in May I stumbled upon Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I had no idea there was a National Park in North Dakota and that it was the northern end of the Badlands. Usually our summer vacations coincide with Scott's work trips. Since he didn't have any this summer I thought we should take advantage of actually taking a vacation. What, my workcations are always classics? I suppose a second real vacation this year wouldn't hurt. We definitely have more time than normal. As long as we took Covid-19  precautions and avoided people. We finally settled on a time to go. Blake joined us so we borrowed our dad's van so we could ride together. Scott had just driven from Michigan the day before. Blake had met my parents in Wisconsin to get the van and then drove from Duluth to pick us up. I offered to drive since I literally only drive twice a month.  I was still pretty tired from a long drive home. Since we were near Fergus Falls we had to stop by the abandoned state ho...

A 250th 4th of July in Three Lakes

A couple of weeks after we were last up at the cottage, you say? Not soon enough, we say. We assumed dinner would have already been done by the time we arrived so we stopped to eat at Culver's in Rhinelander. While we were eating, I got a text from my dad saying he was in Rhinelander with Chelsea at Urgent Care. I guess Viola had taken a hard fall. When we got to the cottage Daniel was just starting dinner.  We hadn't seen Viola since Christmas, she's a little girl now. She was super shy around us at first.  She did also just get back from the hospital. I'm not sure if I approve of fireworks the night we get there, but due to scheduling conflicts that's when Three Lakes got in their fireworks show. 2nd of July fireworks would do.
