Right Now...

I'm trying to take more time to BE STILL. To pray. To listen.

I'm obsessed with mate lattes. Mate + honey + vanilla almond milk + cinnamon + my beloved Aerolatte. Pure bliss.

We are loving the West coast. The ocean is dreamy and Portland is by FAR one of my favorite cities in the country. California is beautiful and WARM! Just wish it wasn't so spendy :)

I'm obsessed with feather earrings. Courtney is a Seahorse and Owlita are my faves.

I'm still blissed out from Hoopcamp. *sigh* Amazing.

**If you're interested in getting more consistent updates on my life, as I'm obviously not a daily blogger :)...feel free to add me as a Facebook friend or follow me on Twitter. I also just uploaded 186 new photos to my Life Inspired set! Lots of "behind the scenes" action :)

Have a wonderful week!

Busy. Wonderful. Life.

bella-turns-5Greetings. I have received so many emails over the last week from concerned blog readers wondering if I am ok...wondering if I went into labor early...or if I've just dropped off the face of the earth :) I am ok...so no worries! I am more than ok...life is wonderful! But life is busy. Blogging is not my first priority when life gets busy...so sometimes this blog will be silent for longer periods of time. After we got home from Colorado, I flew to Scottsdale, AZ for a week on business. I am also busy planning an annual meeting for my work along with my other daily work for my parents (I work from home for them for those of you that don't know), as well as a birthday party for a certain 5 year old princess (which took place today). Add 33 weeks of pregnancy to that, and I don't have energy for much else.

But I can assure you that there are new posts coming! :) I have several fun giveaways planned and posts on topics that I know a lot of you are interested in. And just so you know that I am alive...I've included a "hot off the presses" photo for you. Taken today at Bella's party!

Stay tuned...thanks for your patience and for hanging in here with me!

On The Road Again

We are finally settled in Bozeman, and now we're off traveling again for 6 weeks! :) We've been in Des Moines for the past 2 weeks doing some work for my parents and now we're heading to Boulder, CO for Matt to work on a construction project with my brother. We'll be back home around March 15 or a little after.  I've been to several playgroups and a knitting circle (see above photo....and no, I don't knit...but had fun watching!)...and have had great conversation over Thai food with many friends (Bozeman has none...so I'm in heaven).

While we've been back, I've also been to a prenatal yoga class at The Family Tree (the "famous" Sandi Hoover was out of town, but Birdie did a great job filling in), had the most AMAZING massage by Maggie McGinnis...prenatal massage extraordinaire, and had an adjustment with the lovely Dr. Jen at Balanced Life Chiropractic (she offered to adjust us for free when we were on tour and I just now took her up on it...thanks Jen!!).

And now we're looking forward to the next leg of our trip.  If you live in the Boulder area, let me know if there is fun stuff happening. We'll be staying with some of our very best friends in Lafayette for the first 2 weeks (yay!), but will be in a rental in Boulder for the last 2 weeks.
