Well praise be, we had a relatively easy run with Covid. I am so sympathetic to those who had a rougher go. It’s sad to think about the suffering and loss surrounding this virus. Stevie had some mild sniffles and he still has a very mild cough (mostly in the mornings). Paul and I have…
If you know me, you might assume it was the 80 degree heat wave in January that I’m bitter about. Yeah, not stoked on that. But alas, Covid made it’s way into our little house. Last week at school, Stevie had an exposure. Not the first time that has happened, but this time just felt…
It surprises even me that I can post consistently to the blog for a solid 6 months, and then just… forget. I don’t forget for a week or two. I forget forever. It truly hasn’t even crossed my mind to log on! Today, I started editing photos from a recent trip hich reminded me that…
Just wanted to check in and quickly review the Everlane Relaxed Linen Shirt. I’ve had mine since 2016 (when it used to fit much looser!) and it’s been a favorite for so many years. It hasn’t shown many signs of wear yet, other than not being it’s brightest white anymore. But I was ready to…
ABLE recently sent me a pair of their Zell High Tops. We all know this doesn’t happen often. Over the last year I chose not to take any collaborations at all. I’ll be the first to admit, I enjoyed it. No pressure to post cute photos or make sales. No competition. It truly brought back…
One more week of summer vacation down, two weeks to go! We are in the homestretch and the end is in sight — so why does it feel so far away? Well, first of all that’s my anxiety talking. The days are so long, that it’s hard for me to wrap my brain around them.…
We just returned from a week-long Utah trip a few days ago. It started with barf, ended with barf, and we squeezed in a whole bunch of fun in between. Yes, you read that right: barf. Of course. We were supposed to leave on Sunday morning, but Stevie was feeling sick. Not the first time…
It’s been a couple weeks since I sat down to write. While that usually means my life is too boring to think of anything to say, this time I’ve actually been busy ok? Looks like summer is in full swing. With some precautions of course, but much more busy-ness than we’ve experienced in awhile. On…
Boy oh boy, hot summer. It’s been a scorcher this week huh? It made me feel pretty lazy overall, and completely unprepared for many, many, many more hot summer days. But I still managed to drag myself in the ugly pool 3 days in a row and pose as “fun mom” for a little bit.…
How lucky was I to have my family visit for the weekend?? My mom and sister drove out to see us. When we did the math, we realized it had been 18+ months since we’d been together! Too long, that’s for sure. There was much to catch up on, and I was so grateful they…
