Shannon

Hi, I’m Shannon — a mom to a house full of boys and grandma to a few little ones, living in northern Minnesota with my husband Scott. Making Mommas is a place for real conversations about motherhood, marriage, and the everyday work of building strong families and meaningful homes. It’s part of the Hill River family, where our focus is simple: putting God first, strengthening our families, and building homes that truly serve the people we love.
