It’s funny, because when you live in the midwest in a log home – you legitimately have cabin fever around this time of year. With no warm weather locale trip to look forward to, things are seeming pretty bleak over here with the negative degree wind chill temps.

So during this past three-day weekend, we had to come up with a few ideas on how to stay warm and keep our sanity at the same time. Here’s how we fared…

[did a little prep for Big Night 2016][took a stroll around Homemakers and snagged a cookie for the road][made blueberry muffins from scratch // recipe via Yammie’s Noshery][fresh flowers (ranunculus!!!) from Trader Joe’s][Evie’s first trip to the Science Center was a hit][and a little rule breaking to round things out…]

I didn’t realize how badly I want it to be spring until this past weekend, and I know we still have a long way to go. How do you keep the tots happy and burn off some of their NEVER ENDING energy during the winter months? This mama would love any and all ideas.
