With Sara moving into a new apartment in the city and my eternal quest to change up my interior of my house, I thought it was time to share some of my favorite places to find affordable wall art. I’ve spent a fair amount of time looking online for art. There are some truly amazing…
Greetings from Michigan! We’re at our parents’ house on the lake, which means lots of boat time, plenty of relaxing and tons of playing with all the cousins. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the end of summer. The sunsets have been gorgeous this week, too. Hope you guys have had a good week and…
Happy Friday! What an amazing week’s it’s been. Sara and I met our best friend in Southern California to celebrate her 40th birthday.

Yay, it’s Friday! Just got back from taking the girls to the local Music Festival’s children’s opera performance of the Sound of Music. Kids from all over the country come here for a three-week opera intensive and sing alongside several talented local kids in multiple performances. It was spectacular and Calla has been singing her…
Happy Friday! We’ve had rain off and on all week in Crested Butte. So, when the day was perfect yesterday we headed up high for a dinner picnic. And look at those views! I try to make the most of summer here at 9,000 feet, because it’s pretty short-lived, but my favorite time of year….

This past school year, I was on the PTO board at Harper’s public elementary school. My responisblilty was managing the Direct Appeal campaign. That means fundraising! Public schools in California need all the help they can get – the PTO fundraises to pay for all enrichment programs; music, PE, and art. Fundraising is crucial for these…
Summer time is here. School is out. Last summer was so much fun – hanging with my girl at parks, museums, swimming, Tahoe, traveling back to the Midwest to visit family. But one thing I noticed in the midst of the travel and fun was that I stopped taking care of myself. This summer I…

Happy Friday! It’s Calla’s last day of kindergarten. I can’t believe how fast this year has flown by. I also can’t believe how much she has grown up! I’m feeling more emotional about the end of the year than the beginning… anyone get that way? We welcomed summer in last weekend with a trip to…
Happy weekend! We finally have sunshine and real spring weather in Crested Butte. May has been so rainy and gray, which we’re not used to. We are blessed with a ridiculous amount of sunshine, so this rainy month was hard to handle. The girls and I went for a hike when we had our first…
