For the first time in 3.5 years of marriage, I took my pillow and moved to the couch. I say moved because I didn’t really sleep. It’s ironic that a few hours before, I grabbed our vows which sit on our dresser and read them...

We decided last year (when we gave up on our lawn and yard) that this summer was going to be the year for our backyard. We decided to devote our time (instead of to the inside of our home) to the outside. To kill weeds,...
Last year worked so well, the online "Christmas letter" might become a tradition. Looking back on the past year and desperately try to catch everyone up, a better schedule is needed to post regularly on here in 2014. New year's resolution anyone? Noelle started a new...
Alright, It's not a zoo, per se (despite my ideas to fill it with chickens, mini cows, fainting goats, and our dog Chloe) We did, however, buy a home in Rochester, MN. Perhaps it was my recent career switch to real estate or deciding we really...

We woke up ready for a day in Memphis and a plan. We were going to start our day off at Mud Island, head to Graceland for a picture, catch the Peabody ducks walking down the red carpet, and do a tour of the Gibson...
[caption id="attachment_1785" align="alignnone" width="300"] Outside our fabulous hotel[/caption] Our last day in NOLA we decided to find a local rum distillery we had heard about. Chris and I have really enjoyed learning about the processes of making different beers/alcohols. Neither of us really liked rum. Notice I say...
We woke up and went to Mena's for a down home breakfast of grits and hash. It was pretty great authentic food which was followed up by lots of walking and sight-seeing and some more authentic food. Po-boys at Johnny's Po-boys. Then, it was the...
