Hi! I'm Trista

I'm a wife and a mom of three. I live in Iowa where I spend my time snuggling my babies, chugging coffee, and avoiding the laundry. I'm so happy you're here!

We did it. 3/5 of our family had C0v!d and we’re recovered and we all made it out with minimal tears and maximum screen time. 🤪 Back to work in the office tomorrow for Jason and back to school for Blaire. Ben gets to stay home the next few days out of an abundance of caution so he gets an EXTRA long Thanksgiving break. We are lucky we have such great friends for neighbors (and lucky none of them were sick) so they kept us fed and caffeinated and dropped off random activities to keep the kids busy. It’s another year I’m adding health to the list of things I’m thankful for. ❤️ #momof3 #momofthree #tagtheqc #oldnavystyle

the face of a boy who doesn’t mind waking up to a 35° morning on November 1. 🙃 also, how do I sign up to have eyes like this?

This picture was in my Timehop from 3 years ago. This tree on our old street was always so beautiful in the fall. Blaire was wearing my hat for “hat day” for pre-k. ❤️ I can’t believe she was Ben’s age here. Now she’s 7.5 and basically going on 13. 🥴😅

Apple picking day! My favorite fall tradition! I was starting to worry the weather might not cooperate for us this year. 🤪 We stocked up on honey crisp and Ben talked us into an $8 caramel apple. 🙃 There’s one more pumpkin patch we want to cross off our list next weekend, so I’m hoping the weather stays as perfect as it was this weekend. 🤞🏻 What are your favorite fall traditions? Also, swipe to the last picture. Sloane’s pose is my response to anyone who asks me how I’m doing. 🤣🤪🤪

date night ⛳️ last night, of course, because he HAD to be at the Iowa game today. 😅 Thankfully they pulled out a win because the Hawkeyes are one of things that can put him in a bad mood. 🤣 Anyone else have a diehard sports husband?? 🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️
