If you have me on social media, you know by now that my Grandmother died a week ago. It’s been hard. Brutal, really. She had Alzheimer’s so we lost her personality and spark many years ago but having this closure has brought an enormous amount of pain and sadness that I was completely unprepared for. … Continue reading You’re My Rock, My Colorado
For Nick’s birthday in his new city and state, I wanted to really cater to his likes and do something extra special for his birthday!

I am back from an exhausting trip to Austin. Exhausting? Correct! Not just from traveling in a pandemic, concerned about every move I made, but also due to my newfound furlough at work and car troubles on my return trip. But that’s not what we’re here for on this fine Wednesday! I am here to … Continue reading I Still Love You
This week, Garrett and I were supposed to be going to Germany and France. It was a trip that I had been looking forward to for what felt like forever, but like so many others, that trip has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

I’ve seen a ton of people share their favorite songs to listen to with the 30-Day Challenge and instead of flooding the social sites with my recommendations, I thought I’d share them in one post with my favorite followers!
