And here we are again–Friday Favorites! Yeah! My week started out with a bang with homemade zucchini brownies from Jenny. She really is the best bakery chef ever. I am so lucky to work with her (and not just for the goodies either)! Then Larry and I slipped out for a quick trip to Hawkes Landing. … [Read more…]
I’m going on a little tangent with this week’s blog. I’m curious to know if any of you have recurring themes to your dreams. I hope you will share in the comments. I seem to have three. (I may be about to share more of my craziness than you care to know, but here goes.) … [Read more…]
Here we are at Friday again. One week ago today, we were leaving for Bear Lake, and now we’re home already. School is starting for the grandkids, and summer is nearly over. How did that happen? Where did the time go? Anyway, it has been a good week. I won’t go all the way back … [Read more…]
This week I’m writing from Bear Lake North RV Park & Campground, where we hold our annual family vacation. That means you’re going to be treated to more family photos. On the road with these two beauties–Piper and Tessa. Jessi and Wells arrived in matching shirts. Great minds think alike! My darling Saira Bear–evidently looking for … [Read more…]
Today’s Friday Favorites are double the fun, starting with your photos from last week. Thank you for sharing. I loved them! The first one is from Ashley, spending time with the kiddos in the yard.

I come from a long line of smart, courageous, funny, loving women—none more so than my mother. So when I think about what I want to be when I “grow up,” I naturally look to her. She’s taught me many lessons through her example. Today, I share three of the most important. 1. Open your … [Read more…]
This week brought family visits, a couple of packages in the mail, and as always good food. I can’t wait to share, so here we go. The week got off to a good start with the arrival of my new running socks. Not only are Bombas like hugs for your feet, the colors are fun, and … [Read more…]
It’s a new month and that means a new guidepost from The Gifts of Imperfection. This time it’s Cultivating Intuition and Trusting Faith (letting go of the need for certainty). Growing up I most often heard the word intuition in combination with women—as in women’s intuition—and it seemed to me to be something mystical, like … [Read more…]
I’m going to mix things up for this week’s Friday Favorites and instead of sharing photos of my favorite happenings from the week, I’m going to share some of my favorite quotes. I love words, especially when they are arranged poetically in a way that inspires me or just makes me say, “That’s me exactly. How … [Read more…]
I’m officially on vacation and taking a break, not just from my day job, but from writing as well. That means you get a photo recap of my girls trip to Park City (lucky you). Is this the modern equivalent of forcing you to watch vacation slides? The only thing is now you can leave early … [Read more…]
