35 Random Things About Me
I turned 35 last month so I thought I’d share 35 random things about me. Some are funny, some are serious and some are just plain odd. Enjoy! Before we get to the 35 things, let's talk about this striped deep-v dress I got for our upcoming beach vacation to wear as a cover-up (for $18, it's a steal!) At 5'10, I'm too tall to wear this as a day ...

Motherhood Confessions: Parenting When You Had a Toxic Parent
This is a post that was difficult to write, but one I have always kept in my drafts to share when the moment felt right.

I went to Basu Plastic Surgery's Texas Medical Center location and the nurse injector, Tiffany, evaluated my skin and marked ...
Goodbye Sweet Lulu
It was a very difficult week for our family. We said goodbye to our sweet Lulu, who was with us for 13 years on this earth. I still remember the day I took him home and all of our adventures in between. He was like a tiny blonde ball of fluff with the sweetest little face you’d ever seen. Lulu suffered from numerous health problems that started ...
Five Things
It has been a long week. I haven't been present in this space because I've honestly felt so overwhelmed and emotional that I couldn't write. I went back to work at the office (I had been working remotely before that) and getting back into that routine, while much-needed, is very difficult when there are so many people in our city who can't go back ...
How to Help Victims of Hurricane Harvey
As you've all seen, the devastation in Houston from Hurricane Harvey is unprecedented and unfathomable.

Our “At Home” Family Photo Session with Olive Shoot Photography
When Nikki of Olive Shoot Photography and I scheduled a session together, I honestly wasn't sure what to think of an at-home family photo session.
