    It’s the end of July?! What a long month. So much happened. Some good, some bad, some busy, some boring. We’re still missing Bear every day, but are also glad to love on Alaska a little extra. Patrick and I were walking this morning and discussing how rough of a month July was. We’re trying Continue reading

    Summer Cooking To Do List

    As part of my ongoing pursuit to savor the rest of the summer, I have perused my saved recipes on Pinterest and in my bookmarks to gather my list of ultra-summery recipes that I still want to make! Look, I am really looking forward to the fall and pumpkin recipes have been catching my eye Continue reading

    this week #41

    Happy Tuesday! My goal this week is to tune into summer, enjoy each day, and to fully appreciate each moment of my life. I’ve complained ad nauseum about how this summer has been kicking my ass emotionally, mentally, and physically, and now I am ready to turn things around! We’re going to see the new Continue reading

    It’s early on a Monday morning as I sit on my couch to write this. I just wrapped up a fun, very outdoorsy weekend, and now I’ve got a busy week of work coming up! I’m going to go to the gym today, but otherwise I am hoping to pick up the house a bit Continue reading

    some simple joys

    Today has felt like the most Friday-ey Friday I’ve had in a while. I’m reminded of being in high school, counting down the days until the weekend, psyched about the prospect of a Friday afternoon and few days off school. Next week is a busy work week so I really focused to get stuff done Continue reading

    Well, life continues on, doesn’t it? It’s a weird thing to have felt such loss last week and then you just… continue. I miss Bear and always will, and I don’t think I am done crying yet, but for now I am so grateful he’s at peace and that we still have Alaska to love Continue reading

  • For Bear

    For Bear

    We lost our sweet dog Bear this week unexpectedly, and I’ve never felt grief like this. He was 13.5 years old, and we got to spend the most amazing 8 years with him. His sister Alaska is still with us, and we’re loving on her harder than ever. I want to wax poetic about Bear. Continue reading

    Anatomy of a Summer Trail Run

    Have you ever wondered what goes into a successful summer trail run? Ever visited our house and wondered what we do with all the running gear littering every corner of our home? Look no further! I’m here today to break down what goes into a summer trail run. Notice I’ve left out the word ‘successful’.  Continue reading

    Q2 Check In

    Happy summer, officially! Are you in a heat dome? We certainly are. Let me tell you, my new parsley plant does NOT like it. I am going to sound like a broken record for a moment, so bear with me, but how in the world are we already halfway through 2025?! Time is moving differently Continue reading

    this week #38

    Let me describe the atmosphere I’m in as I type this: it’s raining (a lot!), my favorite Spotify summer jazz playlist is on softly in the background, and freshly baked chocolate chip zucchini bread is sitting on the stove. I know I’ve complained a lot about the weather this summer – and I do feel Continue reading
