“Devotions” - Around me the trees stir in their leaves and call out, “Stay awhile.” The light flows from their branches. And they call again, “It’s simple,” they say, “and you too have come into the world to do this, to go easy, to be filled with light, and to shine.” When… Read More »

I have to be honest, I was in love with dress number one from the try on video…but you all CLEARLY wanted dress 2 so that’s what I’m wearing for tonight’s 15th annual @ireach2inc event!
I’ve had a ton of people messaging me with questions about Laramie Peak (which I love) after I posted about our hike yesterday. So here’s a video where I talk you through the trail and give you pointers! I don’t have pics of what I call the meadow but trust me, you’ll know when you get there and it’s the perfect spot to stop and refuel! Questions?! Leave them in the comments.
Epic day climbing Laramie Peak with these gals! Trust me when I say you need to scroll through all of these…plenty of whimsy and tom foolery occurred on this hike. Thankful to have women in my life who are willing to go on adventures. “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”

Today was one heck of a day that started with unexpected incidents (more details coming later I promise), but despite it all, I ended it doing my best to help an amazing organization the @oliviacaldwellfoundation do vital work for our state’s families. And to me, that means it was a good day. Have I mentioned how much I love my job?! 💜 Thank you to the entire team at OCF the board members, employees, and volunteers that worked so hard to make this fundraiser happen!
All set for @oliviacaldwellfoundation event tonight!
This Saturday is @ireach2inc annual iReach fundraiser! Think sophisticated and classy. You know the drill, vote for your favorite dress. 🖤
My dad has 8 siblings, and their children are spread out all over the USA. This weekend some of us cousins gathered in the PNW to celebrate my cousin’s birthday. It was a long weekend full of laughing and sharing stories, reconnecting, adventures, and making memories. I personally met two cousins that I don’t think I’ve ever met before…or if we have met we were too young or it was too chaotic that we didn’t remember meeting! What a blessing it is that we had this time together, and it really is fun to see how much of our personalities are nature vs. nurture. I’m already looking forward to the next time we get together…
Cousins help support cousins and encourage/pressure them to get their first ink! 😉 Thanks @3rdhearttattoo for an amazing day.
Meanwhile while I’m in WA and OR with my cousins, the Cowkids hit the mats for the first ever annual Sundown Showdown Wrestling Tournament 💜 Huge thanks to everyone who showed for an amazing evening especially all the volunteers and workers.
