Well, we made it 8 years with my wild child with no broken bones...until skate night last night. Stella has a small fracture on her finger and had to get a splint at the hospital today. But in true Stella fashion, it is not slowing her down! #wildchild #mamasgirl #brokenbone #bravegirl #wildone

📚 We had a fun, sunny, book filled summer! My girls completed a whopping 9 summer reading programs across our local area! I am so proud that they have a  true love of reading at their young ages. For #WhatchaReadingWednesday I'm sharing this book, "101 Books To Read Before You Grow Up". It is filled with many of our favorites and many more to add to our growing list of soon to read books!
Here are our favorite books from the list:
Ava: "Tuck Everlasting"
Stella: "Charlotte's Web"
Me: "Where the Red Fern Grows"
