This year I’ve found new ways to relish in self care that all center around being at home. I’ve always loved home dearly, and with all the extra time in the house this year that hasn’t changed, but it has forced me to be a little more creative with the ways I choose to “treat” […]

Lately I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about what gives my life purpose. I work from home, I’ve been isolated for months (due to COVID), my interactions with friends and family have decreased and I’ve been left with my work related to-do list, laundry, and grocery shopping.

The Frio makes me ache in that beautiful, longing kind of way. After the long hot drive, after lugging all our belongings into the quaint cabins, after greeting nearby family members, I face the river. Standing at the top, looking down on the crystal clear aqua colored water, a flush of emotions and memories flood […]

This post comes in the wake of so many people asking me how we care for Bowie’s hair – so I did an Insta story explaining my methods and favorite products and I’m listing them for you here! If you missed the stories no worries – just look on my Bowie highlight for the explanations. […]

Kenton loves banana flavored things. It’s kind of weird and I love him for it. I mean, he gets banana flavored snow cones. I didn’t even know they did that. But he loves them. Once we were traveling with family and we tried this cake at a luncheon. When he bit into it he did […]
