On this day in 1975…a marriage began

Filed Under: Family Values Tagged With: family, marriage, milestones Leave a Comment

Today my parent’s celebrate 43 years of marriage. Here’s a look back at some grand memories from the “early days”. They still share the same smiles and twinkle!

Prunes and noodles for Good Friday? Yes. It’s a German Russian food tradition. I share more about on my AreaVoices blog here and find the story on my Instagram stories for today.

Mid-century modern fixer upper

Filed Under: Small Town Living 2 Comments

A fun 2017 challenge was a mid-century modern fixer-upper Nathan and I flipped in our small town. Below is a before and after comparison of the front exterior from August 2017  to November 2017. I share more in my Agweek column about the project. Find a gallery of before and after pictures on my Area Voices blog.

Happy “Golden” Birthday, Hunter!

Filed Under: Family Values Tagged With: birthdays, family, milestones, motherhood Leave a Comment

On August 20, 1997, at 3:14 p.m. via c-section, my first-born, Hunter James entered the world.  I didn’t know it at the time as an 18-year-old new mother but Hunter was the first best decision of my life.

Welcome to the Prairie…

I am a mom of three kids and a wife to Nathan. Together we live on the North Dakota prairie, 97 miles from a Starbuck's. I share about family, food, farming and the prairie that I love. I used to commute 98 miles one-way to work but it required too much coffee. So now I am home, consulting, speaking, writing and primarily, juggling family life.
