Like most, we’re always looking for ways to make our home more functional. And without question, the most underused—and disastrous—part of our home was long the garage. We’re not really car people so last year I found myself daydreaming about turning it into a multifunctional space— a garage, yes, but also a studio where I could spend time on woodworking; Kelly could refinish her Marketplace furniture finds; and the girls could craft, exercise and put on dancing/singing shows.

Today’s post is a little more serious than the average Mitch post because we’re partnering with Evolv Technology to discuss their impressive new efforts to improve public safety. As the son of a teacher, former teacher myself, current city dweller and father of two full-time elementary school students, the safety of my family while out in public is always top of mind. And it’s been very encouraging and exciting to learn about the new security technologies being developed by Evolv Technology to help make our communities safer!

It’s my absolute favorite time of year. The sun in shining, the trees are green, and we’re spending every possible moment we can to be outside together. So on this particular glorious Saturday, we loaded up the family for a quick drive to a midwestern powerhouse of family fun: Michigan’s Adventure and WildWater Adventure.

I’m a dad with a deck and two kids at home. I should be a straight-up grilling machine. But I’ve got a ghastly grill game. Instead of flipping burgers, I’ve been flopping them. My poultry is paltry. My franks are freaks.
Ah, the Dad Jokes.
Anyway, I clearly needed to improve my grillmanship, and I found the best grilling partners in the world to help me do just that: BBQ Guys and Mont Alpi Grills. They can instantly and easily elevate any afterthought of an outdoor space and turn it into a gorgeous and functional outdoor kitchen. So let me take you through our journey from Dumpy Deck to Outdoor Oasis!
All outfits from the trip are linked here!

We took a big trip for the girls’ Spring Break this year, and the transition back to regular life has been a tough one for them. Not a day goes by without the words “I miss Mexico!” ringing throughout the house and they’re getting really sick of hearing me say it.
Which is why I’m pumped to talk about our trip with you today.
Radio Flyer is offering $500 off their M880 Flyer eBike for the holidays. More details below. (Radio Flyer eBikes are also on Amazon!)

I’m so excited to share today’s blog post because Radio Flyer and their fabulous new Flyer eBikes (also on Amazon) have truly changed our lives. I don’t think I’m overstating things to say that this electric bike is the single greatest thing I’ve ever owned. (And Kelly says the same about hers!)

Grab your popcorn, pour a soda, silence your cell phones and put your feet up… because we did it! The outdoor movie theater is finally a reality and I didn’t even break anything while putting it all together. Kill the string lights because outdoor movie nights, here we come.
