Life in Michigan's Upper Peninsula

Fashion Friday {12/2 -12/6}

Happy Friday everyone! I feel like this week went by super fast. Did anyone watch The Sound of Music live with Carrie Underwood last night? It was so good! Just another reason I am totally obsessed with her. Today, Fashion Friday is back!  Monday Tuesday Game day! I have to … [Read more...] about Fashion Friday {12/2 -12/6}

WIAW – Cleaning out the Camera

Hello everyone and happy hump dayyy! I love today because it means WIAW! I haven't taken a picture of a whole day of eats, so today I'm showing you some meals that haven't made it on the blog yet!  I tried a recipe from Pinterest that says to cook noodles in milk then add cheddar cheese and … [Read more...] about WIAW – Cleaning out the Camera

MIMM – Sleepover and Team Dinner

I honestly can't believe December is here. Where did 2013 go?! The good thing about December is that everything becomes Christmas! I had a great long weekend and am definitely not ready to go back to school. Only 3 weeks, then it's Christmas break!  Some marvelous happenings from … [Read more...] about MIMM – Sleepover and Team Dinner

Thanksgiving Fun!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I know I did. I have so much to be thankful for - a loving family, great friends, running - I could write a whole post on it! I woke up bright and early to run the annual Turkey Trot!    The weather was a lot different than last … [Read more...] about Thanksgiving Fun!

Pumpkin Oatmeal Bake

I just figured out how to add color to a post. Mwahahaha ;)  Anyway, I've got a recipe for you today! This is perfect for Christmas morning, or really any chilly winter morning. Or any morning at all. Or for dinner. It's just really good.   I based this off of my … [Read more...] about Pumpkin Oatmeal Bake

Friends, Food and Fun

I had a marvelous weekend filled with lots of friends, food, and fun. Let's recap!  On Friday I went to a scrimmage with my basketball team. We played really well, and I am so excited for our first game next Tuesday! We stopped on the way home for food and I bought a Pumpkin Pie Clif Bar. … [Read more...] about Friends, Food and Fun

Fashion Friday {11/18 – 11/22}

A Regular Day

Alright. I've been meaning to do one of these posts forever. They are my favorite to read! Now that I'm pretty much in the swing of things at school, I'm sharing what my typical day consists of! Let's throw in some eats and call it a WIAW :D  6:38 am: Alarm. Snooze. 6:43 … [Read more...] about A Regular Day

One Year Down, Three to Go

Now that cross country has been done for a month, I should probably get my recap of the season up ;) I found this year that as much as I love running, I don't really like racing twice a week. I like leisurely runs much more than practically sprinting for 20 minutes! At the finals, every school … [Read more...] about One Year Down, Three to Go

Fashion Friday {11/11 – 11/14}

No school for me today - it's opening day for hunting season! Yes, us Yoopers get a day off of school to hunt. I don't really like to hunt, but I'll happily take the day off of school! Monday   shirt: Club Monaco jeans: Lauren Conrad boots: … [Read more...] about Fashion Friday {11/11 – 11/14}

WIAW – Good Weekend

I had one of those weekends where I didn't have to make a single dinner. Now, in the past that would've made me super stressed about having dinner hanging over me. Instead I chose to enjoy not having to cook!  Friday night I went out for pizza with a few girls from my basketball team. 1 … [Read more...] about WIAW – Good Weekend

The Garden

First of all, a big thank you to all our veterans on this Veteran's Day. Thank you for serving our country! *** This year I decided that I wanted to plant my very own garden and grow my own produce. I found out that my step-grandpa has a humongous garden that he grows every … [Read more...] about The Garden
