My First Christmas Without You.
Please make time for the tradition’s. I put my Christmas tree up just like every year and it’s just with my mom. I lost my mom this year. Seeing every personalized ornament from her brought tears to my eyes. You know, at the time of receiving them every year it doesn’t seem so important and decorating…
I Am Most Definitely An Autumn.
It really is here again, Autumn. Oh it makes me so happy just writing that. The crisp cool mornings, I truly feel more alive when I am not sweating every time I step outside. The fact that it is the season of long walks in leggings and a sweatshirt is more than enough to have…

Kids don’t need more “stuff”. They need outdoors & adventure.
There’s something about being cooped up all Winter and then a sunny Spring day comes along and you just think “it’s all alright” We had a Sunny Spring day here in Michigan last week and the kids and I took total advantage! Growing up my parents always had trails in their backyard, back then they…
The Moment Grief Hits You.
Grief is really hard.. I feel like you can have days of feeling absolutely fine and then all of a sudden it’s the middle of the day or it’s time for bed and something just stops you in your tracks. Like tonight. Tonight for me it was a stuffed animal oddly enough. Max from secret life…
