Finding Fossils in Wyoming

If you are fossil crazy, or maybe like us you are heading toward Glacier National Park, the Kemmerer, Wyoming area is a great place to spend a day. I don’t want to give a false sense of Kemmerer, WY as a destinaton, this is the desert after all, but we had a great day in […]

Easy Rock Painting with Kids

Rock painting seamlessly blended together my love of all things crafting with my love of exploring wherever we find ourselves.

When we unpacked the one box my eldest proclaimed the house lacked Christmas spirit. So we did some crafting. We made […]

Cafe du Midi

Fall Craft Time

We had a great time apple picking and came home with a ton of apples. Jeff would say it was closer to 20 kilos. […]
