Happy Friday Friends!
I am so, so happy it’s the weekend! This back to school stuff can be tiring, especially for this Mama!
This week I was going through some pictures from this summer and decided I would share some with you. Every year, we spend a week in the mountains. No matter how many times I’ve been there, each trip back makes me stand back in awe. The beauty. The majesty. Just the absolute beautiful creation of God. So this post will mostly be pictures… hope you enjoy!
A refreshing dip in the crystal clear lake water!
This is one of our kid’s favorite spot in the park. Red Rock Canyon is such a neat place to visit… you can walk along this little canyon for quite a long time. Sometimes the water gets fairly deep and it’s tricky to stay dry. It’s definitely our favorite spot ever to have a picnic … the views are out of this world!
There is so much beautiful drift wood that washes up on shore…
and these two had so much fun building all kinds of things with Daddy! Teepees big enough to sit in, a “log cabin”, and more!
We love to hike many of the beautiful trails in the mountains and this pictures shows you how touch this climb was! We were out of breath a couple of times! Glad we kept going though, because the view on top was ahhh-mazing…

The hike ends at the top of the mountain with a 360degree view! Here’s a view of the village of Waterton… the curvy lake on the top right corner of the picture leads into Glacier National Park in Montana.
Prince of Wales Hotel from the top…
There is ALWAYS a silly picture… or two… or three with this silly boy around!
High tea at the beautiful Prince of Wales Hotel…
A gorgeous day on the water…
Do you live close to the mountains and get to visit them? Hope you have a very happy weekend! Thanks so much for coming by!
-Kendra
Happy Monday Everyone!
Thank you so much for joining us for another link up party! You’ve all been busy as bees during the last few weeks and thanks to each person who shared and linked up last week!
Hosted by: Joy In Our Home, Burlap And Babies and The DIY Mommy
Here’s what I’ve been up to this week…
One of our favorite meals is homemade Macaroni and Cheese! The perfect make-ahead meal to enjoy later on in the day.
In my quest to get more organized, I created this Back-to-School-Erasable-Paint-Chip-Calendar! I know those little squares will start filling up fast once school starts!
Ready to share what motivates you? Link up a post of something that motivates you (or others) to create or just be awesome! Our goal is for this link up to focus on craft, DIY & home posts.

Link party goes up Monday and ends at 5:00pm PST on Friday.
If you haven’t seen this Vintage Airplane Bedroom Amy from Canary Street Crafts created for her little guy, you have to go check it out! Love all the décor, especially the DIY light fixture for this room!
This little table that Danielle from The Painted Willows redid has such a sweet story behind it! It’s going to a new “home” and I love the reason behind it!
And now it’s your turn… happy linking!
Happy Monday!

I love this pretty Family Wall Art by Homemade Interest. The hashtags and burlap give it such a unique touch!!
I seriously need a Chalkboard Calendar like this by the talented ladies from Canary Street Crafts. I often find myself just mentally writing down something in my mind and then the day comes and I’ve forgotten! This is such a fabulous and stylin’ way to stay organized!

In case you missed it, I shared a fabulous breakfast recipe this week! If you love warm from the oven oatmeal cookies, I know you’ll love my Baked Oatmeal Breakfast. I also shared a tutorial on How to Make a Board and Batten Headboard. I love ours and have gotten so many compliments and asking how my husband built it, so I thought I’d share a tutorial.

We have a Frozen birthday party on the horizon so when I saw Carrie from Carrie This Home post the birthday party she had for her little daughter I had to check it out! She shares some tips on having a fun party at the park!
I love this playroom that Katie from Little House of Four shared! It is the perfect space to create and love how organized and easily accessible everything is for little artists!
