Do you have a favorite experience from this summer

Do you have a favorite experience from this summer? Mine will be this short hike in Garden of the Gods with my crew. Stunning. We took a long weekend excursion in Colorado Springs. Can’t wait to go back and explore more trails through this incredibly beautiful spot. Having these kinds of adventures in our backyard is one of the reasons we chose to raise the kids in the mountains. Connection with Mama Nature is such an important part of wellness, spirituality, and empathy. Something I really didn’t appreciate in my adolescence that I hope to inspire in my children.

Raising children who will love your children… La

Raising children who will love your children… Last week, Bexley put together a spa at home. While she was doing my makeup I asked her what her favorite accessory is, what makes her feel the most beautiful? I asked if it was her shoes? She’s always loved shoes as much as I do and she has a collection that rivals mine. She casually responded “No, the thing that makes me feel the most beautiful is my love”. My sweet girls… I think I’m raising them, but the truth is, they teach me how to truly love others every day.

Last Friday was the local #SplashNoCo Pride Walk. The girls painted signs and rode their scooters through downtown to let everyone know they are loved and supported.

BOTH CAN BE TRUE!!! America can be a great country

BOTH CAN BE TRUE!!! America can be a great country, compared to others, aaaaaand it can have need for growth.
.
I’ve reevaluated many of the “Holidays” we celebrate in the USA, and how I choose to recognize them. My family doesn’t celebrate Thanksgiving, my husband and I only shower our kids with extra on Happy Hearts Day, we don’t give gifts outside our home for Christmas, and I’ve been thinking a lot about how and if I want to recognize the 4th of July. I’ve come to the realization that our freedom is precious. While I’m not proud of many things this Country needs to improve upon, like not all having the same freedom I do, and the many ways we need to admit our wrong doings so we can do better, I can be grateful I was blessed to live this life here. I can recognize that we have a long way to go, while still seeing the value in where we are and how we got here. I’m committed to the evolution of America, and I know we can only manifest change if we show up in gratitude. Cheers to the future generations of America and may they lead the world towards peace, love, and light 🇺🇸 #aintthatamerica

Nothing like Spring in Colorado to teach you to re

Nothing like Spring in Colorado to teach you to relinquish control and go with the flow… ☀️🌦🌬☀️⛈
.
As we get back into sports, play dates, and social life, I’m trying to be super intentional about being prepared and allowing myself to go with the flow. The mom I want to be is a mom of 3 that is able to react with patience and flexibility, not stress and frustration. I don’t want to rush and create a stressful environment when we are supposed to be super excited to go do something fun. As a young adult we’re taught to respect other people’s time, and I do, because I have expectations that you respect mine too, but I will no longer allow the unexpected to wreak havoc on my energy and mindfulness. Some things you just can’t control! It isn’t respectful to myself, my family, and it’s not respectful to whom ever I am meeting to not be in alignment with love. Time is a tool, not a rule. Please accept this as a forever standing apology if we are late to meet you.

Future of Junior League! Brought Cora to tour some

Future of Junior League! Brought Cora to tour some beautiful gardens and then we volunteered our afternoon to hosting a home for @jlfortcollins biggest fundraiser of the year. After 3 hours of greeting tour guests, cloud watching, iSpy, and sketching flowers, we went to lunch to talk about 7 year old life. We talked about all the amazing things #juniorleague does with the money we raise. We chatted about the upcoming school year. Discussed big girl responsibilities and behaviors. I’m so very proud of the young woman she’s growing into. #momlifeisthebestlife #dateyourkids

I thank my lucky stars for this man EVERY. SINGLE.

I thank my lucky stars for this man EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. I get to fall more in love with him every time I witness him love our children. I could burst with appreciation for him…
.
Thank you for always being a partner in parenthood. Our children are so blessed to have a Daddy so invested in their everything. You are our rock. You never forget to bring the fun. You keep this family smiling and dancing. We love you 3,000 million billion… #bestdaddyever

This past year, my greatest fear was my reality…

This past year, my greatest fear was my reality… I lost myself in motherhood… I imagine, I’m not the only one. At one point I decided it would be best for my family, for me to relinquish my identity as an individual in order to survive as a care taker and allow my home and children to take first priority. I’m a firm believer in taking care of yourself first. To model the importance of self care. When I’m happy, I’m a happy wife and happy mother. While I had to let go of the outer fancy and physical parts of self care I enjoy, I was able to embrace the inner feminine, beautifully magical, part of self care. Slowly I’m coming back into my physical self, my fun with makeup, my closet of clothes, my collection of shoes, while still soaking in the quiet moments in between to listen to what my She needs. My past 2 girls weekends were full of both! My She is so revitalized. I hope if you felt lost too, you’re finding ways to nourish yourself again. #fillyourcup #risesisterrise #selfcaredaily

The only thing more powerful than magic, is sister

The only thing more powerful than magic, is sisterhood. I’m so blessed to have these friendships of over 20 years. The love and support in this group is so strong. Each of these woman are so uniquely required to complete this circle. I admire these woman who are brave and emotional and inspiring. The pandemic kept us apart for 2 years when we usually see each other annually. Somehow, through not being able to be together physically our bond actually became closer. We are soulmates. Looking forward to forever with you ladies. #girlstrip2021 #risesisterrise

Today is a New Moon 🌚 and the beginning of a So

Today is a New Moon 🌚 and the beginning of a Solar Eclipse season🌞. I’ve recently started paying attention to how my energy shifts with the changes in the sky. Astrology is fascinating! 💫 Moon magic is incredibly empowering. It’s still like learning a foreign language to me, but I can feel myself aligning closer and closer to my highest good with every cycle. With the new moon comes new opportunities, new goals, new manifestations. If you know your Sun, Moon, and Rising sign, do tell! I’m an Aries, Sag moon, Libra rising.
