finding beauty, confidence, and rest in motherhood
Ya’ll are just aching to hear about the 5K, right? Good news is … I’m staying up late to write about it! Great news is … I’m already looking forward to my next race in March so you know it must have gone decent! The running bug has bit and I think I’m officially owning the […]
Top, THML from Stitch Fix /// Skinnies, Vigoss from Nordstrom via Ebates /// Shoes, Tieks /// Bag, Exploradora from Mus Bags /// Hoops, Fossil /// Watch, Michael Kors from Nordstrom Heavens to Betsy! This trip turned out to be much warmer than I expected. No jackets or layers needed – it’s summer in Texas, ya’ll! […]
Happy Monday! This weekend ended on a sour note for all us Pacific Northwest folks who were cheering on our Seahawks. I’m a total bandwagon fan, but sported my tee and fancy headband with pride. I even joined in the actual game watching in the final 2 minutes and thus, got to see all the […]
Panda Raglan – Kid + Kind /// Skirt – Target /// Fleece Leggings – Target /// Boots – Nordstrom This girl. I really really like her! All moms love their kids, we usually like them too. Eh, sometimes they’re difficult and have rough phases, then the love is there but the like is on pause […]
With a picturesque snowscape it only seemed natural that we would attempt a family photo on our Leavenworth trip. I mean, all sane mothers attempt such a feat around the holidays, right? This particular photo attempt was a bit more exciting than normal thanks to our new footwear from Rack Room Shoes. Jemma adored her […]
My 6th fix arrives on December 23rd — a very, merry Christmas to me? To me! Obviously I’m super late sharing Stitch Fix number five from last month. But, I couldn’t just forget that it happened. Especially since I ended up with a piece I truly love! Here it is! And a peek at what my […]
I mentioned on Facebook a few weeks ago that I sorted through my closet and took a bunch of things to the consignment shop. In that pile, I gathered everything red. I’m just not a red girl and so, it all left. Years ago someone told me I looked pretty in red, something about my […]
Here’s the thing … Dominic is a lumber guy. He loves it and will probably be in the building industry for most of his career. It’s a good gig, but I do squeak often about the lack of paid holidays. Thankfully, Thanksgiving is one of the days he gets off so we grasped the daylight hours, […]
Want to win a pair of shoes from Minnetonka Moccasin? Enter at the bottom of this post! Once a month or so, my gal, Leah, and I do our best to line up the dads or grandmas so we can slip out on a mom date. Years ago, all our spare time was spent on […]
dress, c/o eShakti / jean jacket, Stitch Fix / scarf, Target / studs, c/o Archer + Hare (similar) / chain bracelet, c/o Sweet Ties Hair Ties / boots, Nordstrom (last season) When eShakti contacted me about styling one of their dresses I couldn’t say no! With such classic and modest lines, beautiful prints and both […]
I wish you could have all heard the gasp of excitement when Jemma opened her package from Minnetonka. Girl couldn’t have been more excited to see purple boots. “Mom! They’re purple! My most favorite color in the whole WILD world! How did they know?!?” I’ll always love that she says “whole wild world” … I can’t bear […]
