Music to My Ears

THOUGHTS
I had a fashion post lined up today but after watching an episode of America’s Got Talent last night, I felt compelled to do something a little different. A 16 year old girl from Grand Rapids, Ohio performed a beautiful rendition of Fight Song by Rachel Platten after beating ovarian cancer. It brought tears to my eyes- not only because her voice was chilling, but her vivacious and positive spirit inspired and uplifted me. Calysta shared her difficult struggle battling cancer...

Quick Goal Updates :)

LIFE
Whelp, all my bragging about our ‘Austin gorgeous weather’ has finally come to an end. To my friends in Chicago, it’s your turn! I can no longer take the dogs down to Zilker or go on a walk without coming home dripping in sweat. It’s been in the mid 90s this week with wicked humidity and it’s only going to get hotter. Tear. We’ve reached Texas summer… and I better get ready. But let’s be real… is anyone ever really ready?...

Bundrick’s Traveling Tea Parlour

*
I had the pleasure of joining my gal pal and the lady behind the blog Passionfruit And Prunes for a little tea date at Bundrick’s Traveling Tea Parlour last weekend. Nothing makes me feel more sophisticated and lady-like than an afternoon tea date with a friend. We brought our cameras, chatted about life, and of course, took many photos of our tea pot & mugs. Its quite a relief to spend time with someone who understands your need for the...

6 Things You Should Have on your Coffee Table

Home Decor
Image via The Every Girl Ah. The coffee table. The centerpiece of your living room. The perfect foot rest while you post up with a good movie. The spot where you place your cup of water. Or your glass of wine. The center to your favorite room… A coffee table is often left blank and put to use for storage of old magazines, used cups, and all those remote controls. But if styled nicely, a coffee table can add a beautiful touch...

Walnut Crusted Salmon

RECIPES
Grr. I’m kicking myself because I was supposed to be up a few hours ago working out at MOD. But I couldn’t bring myself to get out of bed, not with the soft blankets and comforters keeping me so cozy and warm. Luckily, I’ll be out on the playground with our tots later today and I plan to take the dogs to Zilker Park after work. I’ve got my fitbit on and I’m ready to track my steps. I...

Sisters Weekend

LIFE
Sisters weekend came and went before I could blink my eyes. I remember planning it a few months ago and feeling like it was forever away. Group texts went out quite frequently discussing our anticipation and plans. Lots of emojis and !!!!! were involved. Lili was here for nearly a week and it still felt like a breeze, even with several rainy days and lots of down time. Sometimes I want to take moments and freeze them (one reason...

Happy Birthday Dear Husband

THOUGHTS
Happy Birthday Dear Husband… In 29 years you’ve accomplished quite a lot. From jobs at KFC, the local car dealership and Target to running a company in Austin, you’ve proved your ability to build relationships and connect to people. And you’re kind of a baller when it comes to the sales game… #NBD In the last 5 years you changed my life and made me so happy to be ME. Goofy, high energy, highly sensitive, hates-the-phone-charger-plugged-into-the-wall, recycleseverything me. I won’t tell...
