Our little Lucky Camper (literal hole in the wall) coffee shop getting in a morning work out- with friends & chosen fam of @ponnopozz & Seth. As a girl who also appreciates the tiniest details I love that Adrianne even made a logo for their weekend to hand stamp all the coffee sleeves. Thats commitment, if weve ever seen it ……..(captured by @foreverhellofilms)

@erinbot hosted her funnest friend troop to help her ring in her birthday. And it was scout themed. 80s themed. joy themed. It was a complete and total vibe (and makes me wanna have a big birthday do-over) HBD to the luckiest girl. You & your scout patrol win the merit badge for most creative. Hands down. also! Shes the genius behind @boothbaderginsburg (vintage photo chemical booth). Something about then authentic old school photo strips that make are hearts swoon@rosewoodwed the producer who helped pull it all off !

I freaking love to zoom in.Do you see the Barefoot tippy toes?Little fingers stretching so far to hold moms hand ?A tossed bottle in grass that was mowed at sunrise (If you want somebody to see the things that some others dont always catch – you gotta check out what our girl @wanderlynnphotography did for Coleen & Danny)She makes us want to look closer for the little in-betweens. Its not lifes big posed moments that were gonna remember in the end- its the minutes in between

Earning your patina.We love supporting local brands. So when @mkebootco & our old friend @bennett_young asked if wed share our story about working at camp, we were happy to oblige.This summer, they shot a little film (and a lot of hours) for the fall line that is coming out. We promised to share a few previews & outtakes. And while I wont ever get used to being in pics, i have gotten used to my new boots. Thanks, @mkebootco for showing that women over 50 need work boots, too. And the kind that are made to last.Fun fact: in the chainsaw shot, I was 5 mos preg with Charlie (wearing the only pair of boots I had). At the risk of somebody getting offended- I did this with an abundance of caution. My brother is a lineman and an arborist, teaches chainsaw safety for the state – and the saw was a wedding registry gift. We were only clearing light brush- ( being one of 5 kids raised between corn & hogs, this was normal).Our dad always told us to keep your hands dirty. (Meaning keep your head down, dont be afraid of work. It gives you perspective & makes you grateful.) We have no shortage of opportunities around here for that. Looking forward to breaking these in. Heres to the things that earn their patina.

TODAYS THE DAY! Weve been busy beavers on this for the past year, so excited to get to share it today.We partnered up with Wallys – home of The Great American Roadtrip – to create a line of camping gear, tools, and toys that bring us back to the glory of our 1970s childhoods. From flying discs to tackle boxes, fishing vests to paddleball setssummertime camp essentials that never go out of style. Youll be well prepared for any and all camp activities. (As long as those activities are fishing, drinking, or some combination of the two).Camp is a place that grounds us in traditions and history. A place we call home. Its a place to come back to. A reminder that IF LOST RETURN TO CAMP.FROM OUR FRIENDS AT WALLYS: @wallys We teamed up with Camp Wandawega, the legendary summertime destination and lifestyle brand, to craft a collection of camping gear, tools, and toys that transport us straight back to the magic of 1970s childhood adventures.If youre road tripping, in Illinois or Missouri, you can find vintage Winnebagos outfitted with the whole camp line up.
