We ended the scenic float day with a dinner in town and then Truck and I were the only ones who were remotely interested in the night sky. A few weeks before I asked G if he wanted to do a tour at night and my kids are not fans of tours and he said […]

The day after Father’s Day – JJ and Gregg’s bday!! We headed over to Jenny Lake. The evening before, J said he wanted to leave at 8:30am. We were all cool with that. He even said 8am which I was fine with but everyone just sort of agreed with 8:30. I told G we were […]

Wow. A full night’s sleep and a jog in the morning REALLY improves my mood. I am shit with no sleep. I am sad, melancholy, and irrational. So anyway, sleep = good. I need to recharge a few more nights so I will work on that. I woke up on our last day in West […]

Whew, we all managed to get out of the house by 8:50am. We did tell G that we wanted to leave by 8:30am expecting to leave by 9am. But we told EVERYONE 8:30, therefore all the elders were all ready and then we were STILL waiting on G. Anyway. I feel bad for always ragging […]

It was our slow morning. I really wanted to go out and find another hike to do but when I looked the day before there wasn’t anything that was “easy” that my mom could do with me. Straight up, huge elevation? No thanks. So when my eyes popped open at 6am… I read a bit […]

The alarm was set for 5am but I woke up at 415, closed my eyes and it was 430, and then opened my eyes again, hearing Griffin’s alarm at 4:50 – which he swore he would use his shaking alarm because he insisted on staying out so late after his grad celebrations, and we wouldn’t […]

Heavenly buildings! I just adore the city. It’s so fun and uplifting to be wandering around. And to have a free ticket and hotel room because of work just makes it even better! This was a whirlwind trip thanks to Google wanting to invest in us and SH having the connection and encouraging us to […]

I got a text from my Mom on April 4th, late at night when I was watching a movie with Sam. I told her to pause. Dennie had died. I was shocked. Grandma Evie is 89 and her 65 year old son died of an immediate heart attack while walking on the beach with his […]

“Thank you for making me feel seen,” is what I said in the car, as we were deep diving into stalking a weird situation with our friend. “Give me 5 minutes” “Well, we have 500 miles, let’s do this” When my brain goes a little crazy, it feels so nice to be matched, seen, heard, […]

Griffin sent me his Christmas list on Friday, November 21st. I was like… HOLY SHIT. I can’t believe I didn’t have to nag this out of him before Black Friday! But I had sent him what his sister had for her bday/xmas list, and so he was motivated. He actually had some stuff that he […]

Ahh girls trips. So good and so hilarious. There is something about being with your chosen family that makes you feel so good and can smooth over the some of the hangry, irritating moments. Not that there were a lot of those, thankfully. Just, you know, a few. 😉 So grateful for my besties. I’m […]

Disneyland is always a favorite. I wish I had a pass so I could go for a few hours, hop on two rides, and then cruise around while enjoying the people watching. And smell the waffle cones at Carnation Plaza. With Sam’s surgery coming up, she wanted to plan a few things. She had got […]

Saturday, our last full day! Sam wanted to sleep in and didn’t want any breakfast. J and I went out to breakfast at a local hotel. It was fancy but they had eggs and their fruit plate was divine. Before we left, I got some good writing in, a meditation, and my French lessons too! […]

Since we switched around our Tower of London tour, our Friday was pretty chill. The markets would be better on Saturday so we decided to tour around the palaces today. Sam wanted to sleep in (so did J) so they did that. I got up but decided that if we were walking, that was good […]
