July Wrap-Up // 2022
Welp, I'm pretty much in shock that summer is basically over. My kids have a little over two weeks left before school starts, but they start all of their sport activities this week! This may be the first summer ever that my reading took such a dive, but getting to soak up so many good … Continue reading July Wrap-Up // 2022

February Wrap-Up // 2022
With everything going on in the world right now, it feels so silly to give superficial updates about what this month was like. Literally none of it matters when I think about fellow human beings having to flee their homes from a ruthless dictator. My heart goes out to the Ukranian people and I fervently … Continue reading February Wrap-Up // 2022
October Wrap-Up // 2021
I would have thought my reading life last year would have suffered, but I would be wrong with that thinking. I am totally on the struggle bus lately; I'm finding it hard to read a book that really captures my attention. It seems like books start off strong, but around the halfway point, they really … Continue reading October Wrap-Up // 2021

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! As a kid, I always loved St. Patrick’s Day though I’m not entirely sure why. I’m not Irish, but there’s something about the green shamrocks, colorful rainbows, and cute leprechaun’s everywhere that just jazzes me up! Anyway, I’d love to hear about what you’ve been reading lately…drop me a comment below! … Continue reading My Week in Books // 3-17-21
My Week in Books // 3-10-21
Basketball is over and I'm anxiously awaiting the start of volleyball now! Get me in a gym as much as possible, please! I grew up on sports and I love them more than anything...maybe the only thing I like at least as much as books! We're also expecting some cold weather...and while I'm not sure … Continue reading My Week in Books // 3-10-21
My Week in Books // 3-3-21
Our weather has been amazing...67 degrees yesterday! Needless to say, I've been outside shooting hoops with my kids and playing a little bit of golf. It won't be long and my flower gardens will be demanding my attention, but the good thing about Colorado is that that job can be put off until at least … Continue reading My Week in Books // 3-3-21
My Week in Books // 2-17-21
What a week! We were at -29 degrees (-45 when the windchill was factored in) the other morning, and I'm not gonna lie, I felt an incredible amount of guilt as I sent my husband out the door to take care of our cattle. I am incredibly grateful that my dad is not in the … Continue reading My Week in Books // 2-17-21
My Week in Books // 2-10-21
I am literally in the thick of basketball right now; between my two kids, there's a game almost every night of the week...and all day Sunday. Don't get me wrong: I LOVE IT and I'm so THANKFUL my kids get to play, but it totally cuts into my reading time! When we are home though, … Continue reading My Week in Books // 2-10-21
