Also - take a look in my bio for the perfect smoothie recipe. I've made it pretty much every morning of quarantine. It's "you're doing great!" juice.😜

Challenge Accepted. 🖤⁣
⁣
To be surrounded by a tribe of women who stand up for me, fight alongside me, and who always have my back is one of God's biggest blessings in my life. To all the women (especially @mamaronna) who have been a part of my life, thank you. I love you all immensely.⁣
⁣
For this challenge, thank you @seaangeljenn, @elise_scanlan, @lovejasreed, @mforouzesh, and @amylmcnabb for the nomination. And thank you to @jmgrant2016 for taking one of my favorite all-time pictures of me.⁣

"The meeting of two eternities, the past and futur

"The meeting of two eternities, the past and future...is precisely the present moment." - Henry David Thoreau⁣
⁣
In an endeavor to always try to see the good in everything, I go day to day just trying to see where the positivity lies especially now. As cheesy as it is, the greatest gift that may have come out of this pandemic for me is learning to live in the present moment. I'm a planner and a doer and living in the future is a bit of a hobby of mine. But with so many uncertainties lying ahead of us, I can do nothing but live in the moment.⁣
⁣
About a month ago, I turned 29. Of course, like we all say, my life looks nothing like I thought it would but to be honest, I couldn't have dreamt up this life. For a double dose of honesty, I think I'm tripping out more about being 29 than I will be when I actually turn 30. Why? Because I like beginnings much more than endings.⁣
⁣
This is the last year of my 20's. I feel like I'm hugging my 20-year-old self tightly, telling her she made it. My 20's were hard (2020 isn't helping this final year) and I grew more than I knew was possible. I earned my stripes, my spurs, and my black belt (I wish). And I'm almost on the other side.⁣
⁣
But not without a proper farewell. And that's why with any great, beautiful chapter, as this one comes to a close for me, I have to celebrate. A toast of sorts to the triumphs, heartbreaks, memories, and foundation I've built myself.⁣
⁣
So as any good planner does, I've made a list. 30 things to do before I turn 30. Each item acting as a raising of the glass to who I was and who I've become. I wrote it down and put it up on the blog and hope you'll check it out. Even more than that, I hope you'll follow along with me to close this chapter out. Who knows, it might end with a cliff hanger.⁣

Happy birthday to my beautiful mother and the fear

Happy birthday to my beautiful mother and the fearless leader of our pack.

She is kind and brave and thinks of everyone before herself. She has a quiet strength and that works behind the scenes constantly to make sure everything works as it should.

We’re different in a lot of ways but she always fave me room to be who I was going to be and that no matter what that ended up looking like, I knew she would be there loving me.

Hbd, mama. Love you big time.

It’s strange to have months pass by without the

It’s strange to have months pass by without the “normal” traditions of summer. But even though there wasn’t any beach time, bbqs with friends, or farmer’s markets with fresh watermelon, new traditions were born.

☀️Naps in the hammock
☀️Concocting new summer drinks
☀️Watching old films
☀️Daily sunset walks with the family
☀️Star gazing
☀️Weekend hikes

Things we’ve sometimes done but were usually too time consuming to always do have become the norm. Slow living, laughter, and the little moments are what this summer has been comprised of.

It’s something worth taking with us☁️

Summer days with my boy☀️ Yesterday I got rej $Summer days with my boy☀️ Yesterday I got rejected for something I really wanted and I had to remember three things: 1. Rejection is protection 2. What’s meant to be will be and what you’re meant to have will not pass you 3. The unknowns in our lives is the REASON for faith. If we knew everything that was going to happen, there would be no reason to rely on the Lord. So I’m taking the time to lean in to His plans instead of hoping for my own. Hindsight is always 20/20. And I want to look back and not only think “It all makes sense now” but also “even when it didn’t make sense, I still had faith it one day would”. So remember: God has got YOU. You’re only seeing a fraction of the big picture - you have to trust that the artist knows what He’s doing. You’re doing great. Never give up. (Saying that to myself too) Save this post so you have these reminders when you need them most 😘$
