  • Welcome to my blog!

    Hi! I'm Traci. I'm a Registered Nurse who loves quilting, knitting, cross stitch, and the great outdoors. In my pre-scrubs life, I owned Real Photography, and you can still see my old wedding and portrait photography site here .

    I've created a map that shows links to our camping/hiking/general family fun review posts that you can find here. It's pretty much the coolest thing on this site. Thanks, Google!

    I great big puffy heart *love* comments, so please let me know you visited! I try to always reply!

not looking forward to school starting

for many reasons, not least of them that Will used to go to school during Ellie’s long nap.  But all summer he has moped outside her door for the majority of her nap, more often than not waking her up.  When he starts kindergarten he’ll be gone all morning and get back home just in time for her to nap.  Not going to go down well with him, I can tell you that much.
