About Me

THEN: twenty years ago you would have found us in the attic playing school. jen and jen were of course the teachers. emily and katie humored their older sisters and held on to their every word. NOW: We all became teachers (except for Em, she's the business saavy one.) More importantly Jen and Jen are now mothers of boys.. Lots of boys! Jen W. is in Wisconsin only 4 hours away from her dear sister in Milwaukee (Katie.) Jen K. and Emily are in Nashville house hunting and job hunting. We hope you find our site useful and interesting. If nothing else it is a way for the four of us to stay in touch.

Waterproof Spray


Waterproof spray saved my life this weekend. We bought the spray at Target for about $5 We sprayed it all over three tents on Friday when we arrived at our beautiful sunny campsite. Of course (as all Wisconsonites know) the weather quickly turned from summer to winter overnight. It drizzled and rained all day Saturday and Sunday. The only tent that leaked water was over 15 years old and DID NOT have waterproof spray on it.


Also, don't leave your shoes outside of your tent when it is raining. :(


All in all we had a fun time (besides packing up in the mud) Thank you waterproof spray!

    Waterproofing a tent is always a must. I need a new medium sized tent. Any suggestions on a brand?

    we just purchased a Coleman 6 person tent and I really like it a lot. The tarp on the bottom goes up on the sides about 4 inches so i think that helped with the rain as well. Always remember to subtract 2 from the capacity of the tent. Our "6 person" tent was perfect for our 2 person queen size air matress and our clothes. :)
