We had a really nice, fairly low-key weekend, which was just what the doctor ordered. For some reason I found myself totally smoked on Friday afternoon. We’d been having a really good day, but by 4 p.m. I found myself a bit irritable and ready to clock out for the day. To say that I was looking forward to a… Keep Reading
Slice of Life: September 7th, 2018
Those of you who knows me in real life (haha) know that when I get energized and excited, I get really chatty, really silly, and really spastic. This is the place I’m writing from today! BAH! I’ve had two cups of coffee, am sitting in Starbucks finally getting a chance to work for more than 30 minutes at a time… Keep Reading
A Reintroduction + Who Are You?
Hello hello! I hope this finds you well and that you’re enjoying this first week of September so far. Hadley was so excited to tell me after school yesterday that “It’s a new month, Mommy! September! September has nine letters!” Little does she know that September kicks off her mommy’s favorite season. Like so many people, I love fall so… Keep Reading
Sharing Our ISR Story On the Local News
Jamie and I were recently given a really neat platform via our local news to share about Hadley’s near-drowning accident two years ago and ISR (Infant Swimming Resource). About a month ago, the girls’ ISR teacher Kim was contacted by the local news about doing an upcoming story about the program, and she suggested pulling our family into the story…. Keep Reading
Stitch Fix August 2018: A Review of My 26th Shipment
Stitch Fix boxes have been flying all around this house lately! Hadley and Sadie both got boxes last month, Jamie has a box coming in a few days (he’s set up to receive them quarterly), and I’m movin’ and groovin’ receiving boxes on the regular, per my usual! You know what I’ve realized lately? I do not like shopping for… Keep Reading
Celebrating a New Decade With Fun in the Sun
I have a hunch that this past weekend is one that we’ll be reminiscing about for decades. It was so short but so sweet and just what the doctor ordered for all of us. On Friday afternoon, we dropped the girls off at my parent’s home and then drove about an hour away to Wilson Lake. My best friend Ashley’s… Keep Reading
Whimsical September: Where It Comes From & What It Means to Me Now
Good morning, friends! I hope you had an enjoyable weekend (we did!) and your week is kicking off on the right foot. With college football gearing up to be in full swing later this week, I have a husband who is dancing around the house just pining for the weekend already. Needless to say, it’s going to be a long… Keep Reading
Slice of Life: August 24th, 2018
Shouting TGIF from the rooftops over here! We have a fun weekend on tap and Jamie and I are ready, ready, ready. I think Jamie has said “I am so ready for this weekend” at least 10 times the last few days. This week has been a bit of a doozy due to some significant unexpected trials for a few… Keep Reading
