Happy Tuesday, friends. I’m back today with your Episode 2: Bachelor Recap. If you are just now getting caught up – you haven’t missed much. The typical shenanigans happened last week as our new bachelor, Matt, met all of the women vying for his heart this season. Abigail, the first deaf contestant, received both the first kiss and the first…

Sawyer’s Adoption Anniversary +My New Roomba
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. It was cold and rainy this weekend in Houston. Certain parts of Texas received snow, but Houston wasn’t lucky enough. My in-laws and my grandma were out playing in the snow all day, so I got to live vicariously through their photos. All I got was the photo of the car temperature so…
All things running + Chevron Houston Marathon
One of my favorite weekends in January is coming up: the Chevron Houston Marathon weekend. And, while the race will be taking place virtually this year, it’s a longstanding tradition for many Houstonians.

The Bachelor Recap: Matt James
I have been a fan of the Bachelor since Trista and Ryan’s season. My mom and I used to watch together, and over the years, I’ve found a group of girlfriends who love and appreciate the show as much as I do. So, this season, I thought it would be fun to recap the Bachelor. When they announced Matt as…
First Weekend of the Year Recap
I hope your new year is off to a wonderful start. We had something fun planned for the first weekend of the year, and its a story that deserves a bit of background. I first moved to Texas when I was 17 and a freshman at Baylor University. I’ve been here ever since – nearly 17 years later. For awhile,…
Happy NEW YEAR!!!
Welcome to 2021! I hope that your year is off to a wonderful start. We are off to visit my grandma, and I can’t wait. It’s been more than a year since I’ve seen her, and she’s now in the same state as I am. She used to live in California. I couldn’t think of a better way to start…
