Happy Thursday, friends! Apologies about the lack of blog post yesterday. I rarely miss a day in all of these years of blogging, so that should really illustrate how crazy things have been! But I am back and getting into my routine again. YAY!
Our trip was so much fun. Too much fun. In case you missed it, we went to Mexico with family and friends for a week for a wedding! It was such a beautiful wedding, and we had the best time. I truly did ..read more

Steamer
I had to look back in my Amazon orders to see how long I've had this steamer, and it has been well over three years. I have been using and loving it!
I love crisp white linens on my bed. It's such a simple pleasure for me. I love washing my bedding and changing the sheets frequently for that fresh bedding feeling.
Whenever my sheets, duvet cover, and shams come out of the dryer, they are usually a bit wrinkly. Years ago, I would literally iron my bedding. It would take forever, and sometimes, I would just let it be wrinkly because the ironing was so tedious.&nb ..read more

Are you all having a great week?! We sure are! It has been fun to relax and unwind with friends and family! You can follow along via Instagram!
This past weekend was fun as we celebrated my birthday! We went to the science center since they had the Titanic exhibit. I think this was the last weekend for it to be open. I thought the exhibit was nice, but I don't know that I would highly recommend it. I thought it would be more interactive and immersive. It was a lot of just reading plaques on walls, and I felt like I could rea ..read more

I am diligent about sun protection but especially in the summer months when I spend more time outdoors. I have tried and use a lot of different sunscreen brands. I was packing up for a tropical trip and thought I would share some of the sunscreens that I am bringing with me that are worth highlighting!
Many of these are available at a bunch of different retailers but I'll l ..read more

I just turned 34 on Sunday, and while I still have so much to learn and (hopefully!!) so much life left to live, I have been around the block long enough to share some wisdom with you all. There is nothing profound on this list, but all a good reminder.
What would you add to the list?
34 Things I Know To Be True
1. You will never know everything; there is always something to learn.
2. Always let people know how much you love them.
3. When others lack respect, it does not mean you should, too.
4. Fearin ..read more

Light Support Sports Bra// Belt Bag
Leggings (come in 9 colors)// Sneakers
I just turned 34 and can confidently say I am in the best shape of my life. I don't say that to brag; I say that because I have worked hard to get here and am proud of my hard work and consistency. None of this happened overnight. It took years to achieve.
I can run farther and faster, row at higher wattages, row for longer periods, and lift heavier than ever.
While that's all great, the most important thing is that I feel good and enjoy wor ..read more

Happy almost weekend. April is the busiest month I've had in recent memory. Lots of work stuff and lots of social stuff to navigate! All great things, but man, I am going to need a nap when things slow down come June!
I love being busy. However, if the busyness goes on for too long without a breather, I start to panic a little that I'm missing out on life because I crave the feeling of slowing down and having the time to really take it all in ..read more
