at the end of december i joined the ymca and it feels SOOOOO good to be working out again. i’ve always been pretty active but the last few months of last year i definitely was a lot more relaxed with exercising. i mean unless you call daily walks in the neighborhood exercise but really that was for my own sanity. two kids under three, ya feel me? quite often i put on my workout clothes…
laughing at how silly the girls are with each other lately. addison taught amelia how to do bumps yesterday (or cheers with your cups as some people know it) and for a good 15 minutes all we did was play bumps with cups. and all the giggles out of both girls. watching the sunrise this morning because i was up early enough. eating so many avocados and hardboiled eggs. celebrating day three of whole30. one day at a time y’all.…
for the past few years i have chosen a word for the year. it’s something that means a lot to me. i started doing this is 2014 and each year i feel like god has been the one who intentionally puts the word on my heart and shows me how to use it. it constantly comes up throughout the year no matter what word it is. every year after christmas and before the new year,…
as the year comes to a close and the christmas tree comes down and everything gets dusted off and tidied up to welcome 2017, i like to think back on all that happened these past 365 days and how different life looks now than it did a year ago. i love sitting down with my journal and writing out all that we experienced this year because i know years to come, it will be so…

i take christmas pictures very serious this time of year. i always try to get a few nice ones in so we can get a decent christmas card out of it. in trying to save a few dollars this year, i thought i would take the girls pictures together on my own. my mom was in town last week so it was the perfect opportunity to have someone else help with getting their attention and…
what a fun weekend of dressing up and visiting places for trunk or treat. funny story about these costumes, originally addison was going to be a kangaroo for halloween and amelia was going to be a lamb but seeing as it was 85 (!!!) degrees in late october, it would be cruel to put them in fleece costumes so minnie mouse to the rescue! addison wasn’t too interested in adding the minnie mouse nose but…
