EVERYDAY IS AN ADVENTURE

As life moves along we find ourselves juggling professional jobs, owning a home, and learning how to parent with keeping our priorities straight and living what we believe. Our idea of adventure has shifted from scaling mountains and traveling the world to realizing it is more about an expression of your heart's intention and passion for life. Adventure is the ability to think big about who you are, how you live, and what you can do in the world. In the midst of life moving at a rapid pace, here is our attempt at infusing each day, each project, and each relationship with intention, focus, and humor. Let's see how it goes...

It was a wet and snowy day in the Spearfish Canyon. I love being in the Black Hills! It's home and totally beautiful and lush. I hope we end up back home someday. LOVE. (except for getting caught in a horrible blizzard on our drive back to Newcastle)

4.26.2014


We are spending the weekend in the Black Hills for a wedding. It's fun to be with the family and we are always reminded of how much we love and miss the Hills whenever we come back!

I have to admit, road trips with the kids are not a load of fun. There are a few moments, like listening to Bloom sing along with the Frozen soundtrack that make me smile and enjoy the ride a little.

4.24.2014



Bloom's good friend Miles lives just two door down (for now). We enjoy not only having this kiddo around but occasionally hanging out in the front yard yacking with his parents.

4.23.2014



The kids were is childcare all day and I got a good amount of work done. I love my cozy little office and the work that I am blessed to do.

4.22.2014


Went to the park with the kids and actually read one full chapter while the kids played. Glorious!

4.21.2014




In her short 2+ years in this world Ani is up for ANYTHING. Today we embraced her hair and went for the pixie cut which she was so excited about. I love this about her and hope that this part of her stays alive and well throughout the years!

4.20.2014


Happy Birthday to Bloom! He makes our lives and this world a funnier, fuller, and more interesting place.

4.19.2014



We are spending the weekend at Glendo camping and celebrating Bloom's birthday. The weather is beyond what we could have hoped for! It's great to be outside having fun adventures with our kids and great friends!

4.18.2014





Pedicures and great conversation with a good friend is an amazing way to start the day and weekend!

Awww yeah. This happened today. Tons of sun and very little wind. Even though it barely reached 50 degrees it felt like heaven.

4.16.2014



Birthday Extravaganza! I had a blast today shopping for Bloom's birthday. I can't wait to celebrate his 4th year in this world.

4.15.2014



Thanks God for the close proximity to Fort Collins for the preservation of my sanity! This afternoon we went from incredibly windy and miserable to pure sun and even a little sweat thanks to good 'ol CO.

4.14.2014



In Between Two Ferns marathon with Jillian and Heath. Best night ever! We even ate dinner (that Jillian cooked!) in front of the TV.

4.13.2014


After a long yoga teacher training weekend it was so good to return to a kidless home and watch movies with Heath and a couple friends.

4.12.2014


I am absolutely blessed to not only work with the most creative, powerful, and inspirational women but also to call them my best friends. Wow! What a gift!

4.11.2014

Grandma to the rescue! The kids were thrilled to be spending a week with Grandma and I was just as excited. So thankful for a break!

4.10.2014




I am blessed with amazing people in my life you are supportive and always willing to help when I need it. Tonight I really needed it. Thanks Joe Bundy!

4.9.2014




Yep, it's true. These are actually flowers...blooming...in Laramie. Hope.

The kids are LOVING bike riding. This means that whenever there is a semi-nice day, we are all happy campers!

4.7.2014




Cleaned House Yesterday + Extra Child Care Today = actually getting some work done without emptying the dishwasher and picking up toys between emails and phone calls. Glorious. Who knew work could be so great?

4.6.2014




The weekly cleaning ritual is Heath taking the kids out of the house for a while so I can scrub and sweep. Usually I am still trying to finish up when the kids rush in and start dumping over the mop water. Today I finished and had a moment to sit on the couch and enjoy the clean for a few sweet moments.

Today was the 5th Yoga Day down at the studio. It is such a fun day. The studio is bustling and full and everyone is laughing, hanging out, and having fun. I am so grateful for the community I get to be a part of and all of the amazing teachers who put their time and energy in to making the studio the best it can be. My heart is full.

4.4.2014

A fun night out with new friends!

4.3.2014





Heath took the kids for a little bike ride around the block. I had to grab dinner before I went to work. I sat down, watched some TV, and thoroughly enjoyed a quiet dinner.

4.2.2014


THIS JUST IN: they are spending a week at Grandma and Grandpa's. I don't know who's more excited them or me. So grateful for family who love our children and give us a break.

4.1.2014





It's funny how a 36 degree day with sun and no wind actually feels nice...nice enough to ride bikes at the greenbelt!

3.31.2014

Need I say more?

3.30.2014




Seriously, so thankful for being so close to Fort Collins where it always seems to be ice cream weather!
