Yesterday was just one of those days… felt like a Monday and I couldn’t focus on anything productive. I found myself sinking into a belief that I wasn’t chasing my dreams hard enough . As soon as I turn on my computer, there are reminders everywhere of what others are doing and how others are […]

What a weekend! After bachelorette parties, Della Terra weddings, family dinners and kayaking I am officially sun burnt & in love with summer. This past Friday was my birthday, and I told Rob that all I wanted was to blow out candles. We ate a picnic on our kayaks then went out for ice cream. […]

He nervously put the key in the ignition…it was the moment of truth. After 12 hours of working on the car, multiple trips to the auto parts store, pages of manuals, and dirt stained hands, he sat in the driver seat waiting to see if his hard work paid off. Robby’s eyes lit up when […]

Oh my… where to begin. These two are just fabulous! I have been blessed to know Mackenzie for several years now and can’t get enough of her. She is a passionate woman who cares deeply for people and spends most of her time volunteering with High school students. Justin has a heart for kids and […]

Ohhh Baby, let me tell you about my weekend surprise! Rob and I woke up early Saturday so that we could get a little work done for the business, so we biked down town to sit at a coffee shop while we worked. I typically focus well at coffee shops, but not this time. Poor […]

Meet Ryleigh Ava, or as I now like to call her, Rye Pie. This perfectly precious baby belongs to my brother and his beautiful wife. Ryleigh was born on March 3rd and I got to meet her for the first time this past week. Who knew I could be so obsessed with something so small […]

I am stoked to introduce you all to Mackenzie! She is a wonderful friend and a talented woman. She has one of the busiest schedules I know, yet she is having the time of her life planning her wedding (she is also the one who created these adorable bridesmaids gifts). If you are at all […]
