Being real.

February 25, 2019

With my return to blogging, I want to do address a topic that I’ve observed and thought about in the time I haven’t been blogging…

I’ve noticed a plea for more “real” online. Would you agree? It seems like a fair amount of people want to see or read about more “real life” in posts everywhere – whether on blogs, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook – whatever your social media of choice is, and in real life, I read or hear a lot of “I like this person because they are so real.” or people should unfollow anyone who makes them feel like less, because social media is just a highlight reel. And I agree with those ideas to a certain point.

Cabo, Mexico 2018/19

February 12, 2019
We made our annual holiday pilgrimage to Cabo, Mexico this past December/January.
This trip remains one of our most special times of the year as a family. We are all together for two weeks of uninterrupted family time. It’s the best.
Plus, every year we have friends who join us and it makes it even more fun.

For those who are interested, we own timeshares at Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach and always stay there but you can book a room/house there without being owners.
Our timeshares are currently for sale if you are interested, let me know.

Our favorite restaurants include the Cocina y Cantina at the Hacienda.

Lake Powell – July 2018

January 29, 2019
We were lucky to get to go to Lake Powell with lots of friends this past summer and every time we go and return without anyone inured – I thank our lucky stars!!! It’s a miracle.
And, it is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Happy it’s so close to us.

Kauai

January 29, 2019
In April of 2018, my husband Dusty and I took our two younger kids KJ and Sela to Kauai for Spring break. My husband has a cousin who is currently living there with her husband and three daughters. It was SO dreamy. A beautiful week full of beach time, family, rain, and fun memories that hopefully these sweet kids will never forget.

Last Spring my girls and I started a new tradition – we planned our first girls trip! I’m not sure if we’ll be able to plan this annually, but hopefully every two years or less. It was so much fun. We slept in, enjoyed good food, did lots of sightseeing and every day was filled with laughter. I love having three daughters. Cheers to girls & raising strong women!
