For as long as I can remember in our home, it is a day to tell family stories, laugh, overeat, watch football, play cards and take in a movie. Those are the things that make for a happy Thanksgiving for me. This year, I asked Goldleaf’s family to share their answer to the question … [Read more...]

Reliable, Responsive, Tenacious and Knowledgeable
I am not a native Minnesotan. However, I did spend two weeks each summer of my childhood enjoying this state's amazing lakes as my dad was an avid fisherman. For this reason, Minnesota always held a special place in my heart. However, even with these good memories, more than twenty years ago when my husband and I decided to move our two small children away from family to the state of Minnesota, we were both somewhat nervous about whether or not it was a good decision for our family. I can … [Read more...]
