I'm back! Back again! Tell your friends. There's so much planned for this weekend so know that you are in for a treat.
I was told not to talk about the weather in the intro (darn it) so I won't. Instead, I shall talk about how this newsletter is closing in on a year. Yeah, seriously. Next Issue will mark the 52nd Issue which will make this newsletter 1 year old. Still a baby but I promise you that we're working hard to make sure this baby continues to grow. In today's issue:

Alrighty then, let's get into Tidal's Tale ~ Godwin
Hiya Friends,
It's Tidal! Today, I have for you a story of a wonderful place I visited last week. Lots and lots of sprouts EVERYWHERE.
Friends, I visited the Impact Sports Center. I wanted to check out some serious skills. It was packed I tell you. Packed! Lots and lots of balls flying, children laughing, and parents cheering.
As I stumbled in, there was a loooong line at check in, filled with anticipation. The littles could barely contain their excitement as they got placed in their age group. Lots of screaming. Lots of joy...and lots of balls everywhere.
It was like a dream come true.
As I watched sprouts discover talents for the very first time, I couldn't help but notice the coaches, and their dedication. In every age group, the coaches were patient, fun, and encouraging. The little sprouts played games that focused on basic skills like hand-eye coordination, and they kept kids engaged the whole time. .
Hey Parents! Is your little enrolled in Soccer Sprouts? Reply to this email and let us know what your experience is like so far, maybe we can sip our coffee on the sidelines together.
If you haven't signed up for Soccer Sprouts yet, think about it. Who knows, you could have the next soccer star on your hands.
That is all for me my friend.
I hope you talk to you again soon.

605 Hat Haus:So, you're turning 50, that is a big deal, and 605 Hat Haus knows how to treat it like so. Imagine with me for a moment, you and your friends are about 3 glasses of wine into the night, the giggles are flowing maybe more than the bubbly at this point, and when Chesley arrives with her trucker-hat bar to the party, fully stocked with hats and a wild variety of patches and embellishments, your birthday is about to become memorable. The girls start designing hats that reflect the inside jokes, wild personalities, or that “still got it” energy, and suddenly the party has a heartbeat. It’s relaxed, creative, and way more fun than another generic party activity. Everyone leaves with a custom hat on their head and a story to tell, which feels pretty perfect for a milestone like 50.
This Galentine’s-inspired pop-up is all about giving back to the community, shopping, slowing down, and soaking up some feel-good energy surrounded by women who are just like you!
605 Hat Haus brings the life to any party with a custom-hat bar complete with different templates, patches, and embellishments. From head-turning hats to shirts that speak your vibe, 605 Hat Haus has you covered… literally.

Imagine with me for a moment: You have a whole day to yourself, with no limitations. What would your "perfect day" in Sioux Falls look like?
How I'd Spend A "Perfect Day" in Sioux Falls
If I had free reign and a full day completely to myself, this would be my ideal day in Sioux Falls. No rushing. No multitasking. Just indulging in small luxuries that a typical day may not accommodate.
To start, I’d wake up knowing my house was getting cleaned without me lifting a finger. I’d haveLemon Fresh scheduled for the morning, which instantly sets the tone for peace of mind. Nothing hits quite like leaving a messy house and knowing you’ll come home to calm.
With that out of the way, I’d hop in the car and head to my go-to coffee spot, Brioux Falls. I’d order something warm, familiar, and comforting, something like the Cafe Miel. While I’m already out, I’d swing through Top Car Wash for some much-needed TLC for my car.
Coffee? Check. Car wash? Check.
Next, I’d head to Joy Collective Yoga Studio for a balanced, feel-good burn. Not the kind where you leave questioning your ability to walk, but the kind where you walk out feeling lighter mentally, and slightly wobbly in the knees.
After that, I’d be hungry in the best way, so breakfast would be calling my name at The Original Pancake House. Cinnamon French Toast, are you kidding me?
By this point, it’d be around 10:30, which is honestly one of the best times of day. With the rest of the morning wide open, I’d head to the Urban Archaeology to browse some seriously unique pieces of home decor and furniture.
After walking a few laps around the store, lunch would sound better by the minute, and I’d keep it on Phillips Ave with Agua Fresh. With breakfast done, and Dinner on the way, I would keep it light.
To burn off a few calories without actually working for it, I’d opt for a relaxing sauna session at3 Degrees Sauna Retreat.
Then comes something I’ve always wanted to do: a blowout at The Dry Bar. Every time I try to do it myself, I end up frustrated and running late. Walking out with perfectly styled hair, I’d feel like a million bucks and officially ready for the evening.
That’s when I’d meet up with my husband and take him out on the town. We’d do a sophisticated, candlelight dinner at Minervas, followed by drinks atCarpenter Bar where the atmosphere is almost just as electric as the drinks.
And because no perfect day should end without dessert, we’d wrap it all up with ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery, the coffee lovers of course.
That is what a "Perfect Day" in Sioux Falls would look like for me. What would your perfect day look like? Reply to this email!
