• Bergen is 4! We celebrated with a much anticipated “Ride the Ducks” tour through Seattle, a Sounders soccer game, and plenty of Mexican (his favorite) food and chocolate cake.
• Check in with our instagram account to follow our daily adventures. You’ll see we also celebrated an anniversary recently!

Inspiration::

• Planning ahead and preparing food, gear, supplies, etc. makes such a difference for me for ensuring successful adventures.  Maggie Whitley’s trick for a smooth weekend is so simple, but has been an important reminder.
• What do you think kids really want from their parents? Kid Project lets us in on a little secret.
• Do you have a reading routine? Ours is pretty sacred. More on why reading aloud is so important for young children.
• Did you see my post on (not) feeding wildlife? It was a bit of a rant, but important nonetheless. Play Outside Guide educates us more on Leave No Trace principals.
• Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods? Why one of these grocery chains is better to live near.

Hanging on to every last drop of summer…or ready for fall?

Happy Weekend!
