  • 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!

Will has been very interested in spelling words lately.  We tried to teach him to write cat or dog but it never really took.  And then, about two weeks ago, he asked Nic how to spell ‘love.’  And now he writes it everywhere.  On drawings for me, on drawings he makes for his friends, on packages he finds on the counter…I love finding those scrawled out LOVEs.
