kid art…. my fav.

annual fall retreat with the youth at my in laws…. in central wisconsin, is always a blast! this is the hus with his dad, westside jimmy!

note: andy's gear to whip kids around on the go cart and how the kids were less prepared!

fall in minnesota is pretty rad. love this tree at our church. love julianna (youth student) holding the ladies….. 12+ years of hanging with teens and i still love it. juli is such a blessing to our fam!

cuteness overload. my little ladies.

sometimes i spoil the girls and do their hair for them in the studio. (like my work clothes? ha) they love being pampered already!

 sometimes 4 year olds spill a whole jar of spaghetti sauce. took us a hour to clean up. no big deal. anxiety fest…….. note to moms: place jars out of reach…….

working on art for the studio…… i heart watercolor

fall = lots of library trips
aka = lots of reading at our home

the youth convention that we take our kids too is always amazing. i love being in the presence of the holy spirit with 4k + teens.
