With all of the craziness after getting home from vacation and the drama revolving around school re-opening, I almost forgot that today is our wedding anniversary! It snuck up on me. Lucky number #13. 😉 In 2020. Double 😉 Ivan tried to convince me last night that it was actually 14, and then I got confused and… Continue reading #13

The hug of all hugs
Oof that was a lot of activity this weekend! After months of hanging out on the sidelines, figuratively speaking, I felt like I was suddenly thrown back in the game this weekend! Haha.Ethan said to take a pic like this to remember that this was a #covidbirthday!!I think I mentioned that Friday night we were… Continue reading The hug of all hugs
Holiday Highlight Reel
And just like that, our little holiday weekend “getaway” is over. Considering I came to my parents’ house a day early, it seemed to just fly by. I hadn’t actually been anywhere since March, now that I think of it, so it was nice to just feel like we were going somewhere at least, even… Continue reading Holiday Highlight Reel
Change in Plans
After I published yesterday’s post and went out on a walk with Ivan, we got talking. It dawned on me that this a rare year, because the boys don’t have ANY important activities during the 4th of July week. We traditionally always visit my parents for the holiday (an hour away), but typically we don't… Continue reading Change in Plans

I despise buying gifts for my husband….
It’s Father’s Day today. I’m going to be honest here. I love, love, LOVE the Dads in my life- my husband, my own Dad and my father-in-law- and they are all so very worthy of celebration, but when this day rolls around, part of me is always like, “oh man, another holiday I’m supposed to… Continue reading I despise buying gifts for my husband….
Gratitude in Photos
Since today is a holiday, and I'm sure you are all spending time sleeping in, relaxing with family or hopefully just enjoying your day somehow, I am going to keep this short and sweet. 🙂 I've been having a really nice weekend and just want to share a little photo montage of some things I am… Continue reading Gratitude in Photos
Creative Play and Another COVID Holiday Weekend
Good Saturday morning and Happy Memorial Day Weekend! 😊Here we go, another holiday. This one “feels” a little more disrupted to me in some ways than the others (Easter and Mother’s Day), I think maybe because we don’t usually have majorly traditional plans on either of those holidays in our household.We don’t actually really have… Continue reading Creative Play and Another COVID Holiday Weekend
Today’s Three Things
I ran across a great productivity tip this past week that I'm really loving! It is called "Today's Three Things." The idea is that each morning as you get organized for the day, you pick three things that you want to accomplish that day. It doesn't have to be work-related or even something traditionally "productive". Just 3 things… Continue reading Today’s Three Things
The Parable of the Mexican Fisherman
Valle de Bravo, MexicoToday, in honor of Cinco de Mayo yesterday, I want to share my favorite parable about a Mexican fisherman. But first, I feel obligated to share a very brief history lesson (Spanish major = I took a bunch of classes on Latin American history in college + I'm married to a Mexican 😊). I… Continue reading The Parable of the Mexican Fisherman
