It’s been a week since you last heard from me. My last post was all about how my week was off to a great start and what I bought at Trader Joe’s and here I am seven days later living a week that has had a markedly different start. Last Wednesday I started having flu-like [...]

All The Fall Things
October 24, 2020 { 4 comments }Happy Saturday. My morning has included sleeping in, two cups of coffee, the farmers market and brunch. A very solid start to a beautiful fall day. The scone that you see here is a cheddar rosemary that I got at the farmers market and it’s safe to say that it was the star of the [...]

Friday Check-In + Favorites
April 10, 2020 { 9 comments }Finn left to spend the weekend with his dad at noon today and I proceeded to eat a donut and some turkey, cheese and avocado roll ups for lunch and then lounged in bed for three hours. I took a short nap and then worked on my laptop and phone for a bit. I love [...]

A New Normal + Planning for Online Classes
March 19, 2020 { 22 comments }Good morning. How’s your heart today? Your head? Just when I think I’ve absorbed what life is right now, things change again or I read something that sends me back down the rabbit hole. I think I am going to have to start setting a boundary of only reading the news once a day to [...]

I set my alarm early so that I could get up and check in here before heading off to the first full day of my spring/summer 200-hour yoga teacher training at Charlotte Yoga.

5 Ways I’ve Stayed Sane as a New Mom
May 9, 2019 { 7 comments }This post is sponsored by FAGE; however, all thoughts and opinions are my own. Back in February I asked for blog topic requests on Instagram. I received many requests to write about topics like “managing taking care of Finn, working and working out,” and “self-care as a mom,” and “navigating single motherhood” to name a [...]

Catching Up + Coxsackie + Climbing
April 24, 2019 { 8 comments }Hi and I’ve missed you guys! To say that I hit the ground running when I arrived back in Charlotte would be an understatement. Things have been absolutely nuts in (mostly) the best way. Let’s rewind first… Our last day in Florida was perfection. The temperature was in the high 70s and the sun was [...]

Thursday Tangents
March 21, 2019 { 9 comments }Well, hi. I hope you’ve had a great week. Finn and I were supposed to be in Florida as I type this but when I went to check in for my flight the night before we were supposed to leave…I discovered our reservation had been cancelled. AHH! I won’t get into the story but we [...]

Here Comes the Sun
January 9, 2019 { 6 comments }It has been such a rainy, wet fall and start of winter on the east coast. I have always been a fan of rainy, gray days and the cozy vibe they bring with them. But now that we’ve had so many of them, I’ve really noticed how much lighter and more energized I feel on [...]

Thirty
October 21, 2018 { 31 comments }I tried to start two other “regular” blog posts today but they just weren’t coming together. This post has been on my heart but I wasn’t sure whether I was going to write it. I guess the words need to make their way out so here we go. Today would have been my brother’s thirtieth [...]

Lately + Finn’s TV Debut
October 20, 2018 { 6 comments }Happy Saturday friends. Random fact…I’ve never bought a lottery ticket that’s not a scratch off but I’m thinking I might need to change that today! Did you see that the Mega Millions is like 1.6 BILLION!? Someone’s going to have to win eventually, right? The theme of this post is going to be a lot [...]

Weekend Thoughts
September 14, 2018 { 18 comments }Finn and I are hunkered down and have everything we need for what is now Tropical Storm Florence. They’re saying we could get up to 15 inches of rain over the weekend. The wind was very strong today. I squeezed in one last walk before the storm with Finn and the girls and Finn LOVED [...]

Friday Photos
August 24, 2018 { 19 comments }Happy Friday. I didn’t mean to check-out on you guys yesterday but when I opened my laptop last night and navigated to the new post page, I just didn’t have any words to share. So I closed it and watched Netflix instead. ;) I keep intending to write my final fourth trimester recap post but [...]

March 4, 2018 { 65 comments }I hope you’re having a restful and relaxing Sunday. I’m trying to enjoy a few hours of quiet around the house before I go over to the studio to lead a section of our 200-hour teacher training and teach a class. I just made a pot of French press coffee and poured my first cup. [...]

July 12, 2014 { 6 comments }The last five days of my life have been…a blur. I’ll share them with you the best way that I know how, with pictures.

A Year's Journey
June 9, 2010 { 7 comments }It’s amazing how much life can change in one year. Recently I have been thinking about our life in Birmingham and in disbelief that it’s been a year since law school graduation and our move to Charlotte. I’ve been working on this post for the last couple days to give you a glimpse of then [...]
