Happy Tuesday, Friends. It’s another week with a Bachelor recap. I didn’t have the chance to watch last night, but I’m hoping to get back into recaps at some point over the next couple of weeks. Maybe when Clayton thins the herd down a bit. My Apple Watch goal this month is to walk/run 152 miles, so I had to…
Weekend Edit: The Last of Christmas Edition
Happy Monday, friends. I’m back today for another weekend edit. I love getting to recap my weekend on a Monday morning. It’s a nice way to kick off the start of the week.

Thursday Thoughts + Jam Surprise Muffins
I had one of those days yesterday where I found it really hard to get into my work zone. I’m having a hard time regaining focus this new year. So, I did what always works when I need to clear my mind, and I took the dogs out for a walk. Houston weather is back in the 70s (for about…
Home gym in 2022+Three Things I love about the Peloton Tread
Happy Wednesday! We’ve had a few days in the 30s and 40s here in Houston, but it’s starting to warm back up. That said, I’m super thankful for our home gym, because the cold weather makes me want to hibernate. But, I’ve got no excuses since our gym is right here in our garage. If you are new around here,…
Tuesday Things+Inspiration for 2022
Happy Tuesday. Did anyone watch the season premier of The Bachelor last night? I sure didn’t. I have a bit of Bachelor fatigue. There was Matt’s season, Katie’s season, Bachelor in Paradise and Michelle’s season all in the span of 12 months last year (you can read recaps here). While I am curious about Clayton’s season, I might start to…

My Top 12 Moments of 2021
It’s New Year’s Eve, ya’ll. Tonight, Aaron and I are staying in, enjoying a bottle of nice champagne and heading to bed shortly after midnight. We don’t have any grand plans on the schedule other than ushering out 2021 in the comfort of our own home. It seems like the most appropriate way to reflect on some of the struggles…
Merry Christmas
From my family to yours, thanks for reading along with me in 2021. This little blog has been sort of a passion project of mine that I decide to resurrect during COVID, and I’m so glad that I did. Wishing you and yours a very merry Christmas. I’m taking a couple of days away from my computer to spend with…

This is a girl who is officially on holiday break for the next 11 days. I’ll be spending some quality time with my family, and taking some time to recharge and relax. I love finishing up a year with the anticipation and excitement of a new year just around the corner. Taking time to pause and reflect at the end…
