Oh the places you’ll go

I just got back from my cousin’s graduation dinner.  It’s crazy to believe that Connor is graduating from college! I can still clearly remember when I went back to Washington DC to see him when he was a brand new baby.  I remember his little nursery – with blue clouds and sheep. And new he’sContinue Reading

Flowers from my momma

Sometimes when life gets crazy we all need to remember to stop and smell the roses. Which is exactly what I did tonight. My mom was in town to babysit my cousin so after acupuncture I swung by to have a bowl of chili and some mom-daughter bonding time. While I was sitting there, thereContinue Reading

2 October Challenges, family visits + I can’t stop eating M&Ms

Couple things to talk about today…the most interesting might be that I physically cannot stop eating M&Ms.  Like seriously impossible.  My mom gave me a bag of the minis which she said we were suppose to save and give out as Halloween Candy (um, have you met me and my sweet tooth) and I wasn’tContinue Reading

5 miles, Paddle Boards, Brews, Bike Rides & Birthdays

Ok so you remember here how I talked about the perfect day? Well I was wrong. Yesterday truly was the perfect day. Pure bliss. A day that I will hopefully remember for many, many years to come. It also happened to be my father-in-law’s 59th birthday and I hope that when I turn 59 IContinue Reading
