Nearing home on the last leg of my 8 mile run, I decided it was time to slow down. Time to stop and smell the roses, or in my case the clusters of wild iris, brown eyed Susan's, cat tails, and a faint hint of the oil that soaks the railway.
While walking the tracks I couldn't help but relish in the beauty of every millisecond. Wanting to bring a piece of the magic home with me, I decided to pick a fabulous bouquet, one worthy of display in those quaint flower shops with their usual array of roses and baby's breath, my bouquet would be the most beautiful of them all.
With a hope that others enjoy who drive along the roadway that parallels the train tracks, I plucked my bouquet with care, not wanting to disturb the petalled pockets too much.
In these moments, I picked my happiness, both literally and figuratively. I witnessed, with eyes wide open, a world so exceptionally divine in all its simplicity and picked my happiness. °

Gus’ Station which was originally built by Hember C. & Ruth Steele in 1931 in Ellendale, MN to serve the burgeoning car market, they truly took care of their clientele. The first decade of operation, however, Hember Steele, Franklin Dahl & Neil Johnson operated it as a Phillips 66 franchise. During that time, it was a pick-up spot for Johnson laundry, a Jefferson bus stop and a appointment office for Ellendale Rendering Service. Then, during the War years it was used as a private home until 1946 and that’s where Gus & Hilda Jacobson come in as operators from then until 1976. He even served candy and pop to the school children during recess and lunch time into the 1980’s since it once sat on the same block as the Ellendale school. This historic gem was restored and gifted to the Village of Yesteryear in 2014 adding the final piece to this little community of Steele County history assembled on a few acres. #steelecounty #owatonna #capturemn #owatonnaphotography #visitowatonna #owatonnamn #schs #steelecountyhistoricalsociety #minnesota #minnesotahistory #historicminnesota #standardoil #standardoilcompany #phillips66 #ellendalemn #standardoilbuilding #americanpickers #villageofyesteryear #onlyinminnesota

It was clear from the boot prints all around, that the structure was fairly new to the woods. I searched with hopeful eyes for its creators, hoping they would be like-minded individuals, who even as adults enjoy building stick forts in the woods. But there was no one to be found, no sound to be heard other than the creaking of the trees.
I crawled through the narrow opening on hands and knees, immediately feeling as blissfully joyful as a child. It was the simplest happiness that any stranger had unknowingly provided for me, and hopefully anyone else who stumbled upon this whimsical place and I was grateful.
I sat for a long while, covered by the limbs and quite frankly I'm surprised I didn't melt all the snow around because I radiated so much happiness! It was truly a moment in life of pure magic and I am thankful for the mystery creators that gave me this happiness!

Where’s your favorite hiking spot? 🏃♀️🍁 My feed has slowly been turning orange from all of the colorful fall foliage seen on our new fav hiking trails. You can check out my latest blog article on our recent hiking trip to @visitowatonna’s Kaplan’s Woods Parkway. Link in bio.
🐶
Kiwi had a grand time running through the leaves along the trails at Kaplan’s Woods. I only had to carry her half the time 😂. Leaves are definitely at its peak in this neck of the woods. There are plenty of pretty views. I especially like trails like this because it’s surrounded by both woodland & water. There is even a new mountain bike 🚵♂️ trail for those looking for a different kind of adventure.
🍂
You can check out other fall hiking trails in Minnesota by looking up @exploreminnesota’s Hike MN campaign. Top link in bio will lead you to that list link via my blog article. Thanks a bunch to @exploreminnesota for partnering with me to share these awesome outdoor resources MN has to offer. #sponsored #OnlyinMN

It is in our best interest to find balance. To create a harmony within our lives that keeps us sane, allowing us to rationalize our way through life's problems.
But what if we can't? What if we teeter and wobble between harmony and what seems to be the shit storm of the century? What if we are 1 in 5 adults that navigates their way through life in a cloud of anxiety?
Reaching out is hard, it seriously is. To go to someone and say "Hey, I feel like my world is crumbling and I want to unleash an F5 tornado on your brain by trying to explain how my mind works." IT'S HARD!
So what next, person #1 didn't understand, person #2 has seemingly never been on your wavelength, and person #3 is great, they're amazing, they're your best friend but because of self preservation even they are kept at arms length.
Or at least that's how I feel sometimes. But pain equals growth, and growth equals hope. Hope for a harmonious moment when understanding is found. Whether we reach that understanding through person 1,2,3 or none of the above, we must understand ourselves. °

What a beautiful sunrise this morning. I'd like to believe that this means no snow or rain today & tomorrow, but there is a chill in the air. Easter is just around the corner. Stop by the retail store for all your basket needs. #owatonnamn #nomoresnow #spring

I just spent two full days with only my littlest love and my heart is feeling full and grateful! It’s lovely giving one on one time to each kiddo, so we do try to split them up and make that happen from time to time. ❤️❤️ #savoringsummer

This is my anthem, this is my song / The theme of the stories I've heard for so long / God has been faithful, He will be again / His loving compassion, it knows no end / All I have need of, His hand will provide / He's always been faithful to me -Sara Groves @grovesroad

Happy happy new year everyone!! It’s official the second week of 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣9️⃣!! 🎉⠀
Last year around this time we were gearing up to celebrate this couples love and it is probably one of our favorite winter weddings to date! Anyone else love weddings that have snow? ❄️ I feel like snow can get a bad rap, but it is so pretty. And when you live in a state that has snow nearly half the year, you begin to embrace the beauty of it. So don’t mind me as I sit here and secretly pray for a snow storm to come rolling in over the next few days so that we can snap some pics in it! ⛄️ 📷 ⠀

The morning light salutes my eyes,
O Sun of Righteousness Divine,
On me with beams of mercy shine."

Last night we went shopping then stopped for dinner! Stella had a great time making everyone smile and wave at her. She even made friends with a big scary bear! The best part, Scentsy paid for it all! I’m so glad I made the decision to join Scentsy and share the products I love with others. It has made it possible for me to make special memories with my family. ♥️♥️♥️ #scentsylife #scentsy #scentsyconsultant #fragrance #waxmelts #waxwarmers #cleaning #laundry #essentialoils #naturaloils #diffusers #oildiffusers #scentsybuddies #scentsyfriends #disney #scentsyanddisney #timberlodge #owatonna #owatonnamn #blueeyes
