I know it's been a while but, what better way to c I know it's been a while but, what better way to come back from a 6-month Instagram break than BUTTERNUT SQUASH SAUCE!? The temps here in Spain (yes, we made it!) have finally started to feel more like fall so, naturally, I'm making this sauce on repeat and building up my freezer stash. It's one of our all-time favorite meals and a total weeknight winner. DM me or search "butternut squash sauce" on the blog for recipe!

We've had a lot going on behind the scenes the las We've had a lot going on behind the scenes the last couple of months... and despite our little guy's face in this photo, we are SO excited to finally share that WE ARE MOVING TO SPAIN! 🇪🇸💃🥘 

Living in a foreign country with kids has been a dream of ours ever since we became parents. So when we were given the opportunity to move our little crew to España this summer, we knew this was our chance. 

It's bittersweet to think in six weeks we'll be saying bye to Bend for a while, but after an entire year of being stuck at home, we've never felt more ready for an adventure like this. 🤗 🥰

Also, I'm pretty pumped I can now use my favorite emoji without hesitation 💃💃💃💃💃💃
