Typical: A ridiculously awesome OC weekend kicks off with birthday happy hour at the Cannery, bleeds into Cassidy’s and a late night, Saturday brings the bridal shower I flew in for (amazing), a lil day drinkin’ at Pacific City, a lil night partyin’ in Newport, and Sunday beach flag football and then volleyball all afternoon,…
This gratitude list was meant to be about my Marriage Certificate Trio visit—for which I am still obviously exceptionally grateful for—but this week contained so much more… How is it possible only 7 days have passed since the last Feel Good Friday? Last weekend was a marathon, epic Austin weekend (sans ANY visits to bars—hooray!).…
Over the weekend, my dad and I engaged in what I lovingly call “prison labor”, where we move stones around my backyard. This time, we were moving half of my limestone patio to the other side of the yard to claim more grass and build a patio from my house out my giant sliding glass…
As the tagline fo this site is ‘Glitz, Glam & the Gym’, it seems only fair that we touch base on The Gym. Going to the gym is truly playtime for me. Following programming and not having to think up my own workouts makes it even more like play, especially because I’m always learning new…
It’s the second-to-last Friday of 2018 and my heart is so full. I am just so happy and grateful and lucky and life is fun and crazy. One of my Sunday texts from a friend put it best: “Insanity turned to normalcy pretty quickly, eh?” And so it did. Last weekend’s adventures were easy—so much…
Things I am Grateful For that Ultimately Add Up to an Amazing Best Friend Finding the perfect wedding dress! Check that one off the maid of honor list.

I’m on a plane to New Orleans, that I was supposed to be on yesterday. But I had hopped on a plane Monday for two meetings in 48 hours in OC, and when I got back to Austin just couldn’t get everything done in time to take off again. Though I agonized over the change…
I’m doing BFree Yoga‘s Happy Body Happy Mind 21 Day Challenge, and it’s pretty lax—do some yoga, meditate, feel good, boom. But I wanted to do all 21 days of yoga in a row as part of it. Well, per yogic tradition, the universe has other plans. Great plans! Fun plans! But not yoga-every-day plans. So…
Or, the random thing I labeled this FGF long before I sat down to write it. And to be fair, I love bike commuting. To happy hour, to volleyball, to the gym, to anywhere, it makes me so happy to be outside and NOT in a car! I am so grateful for Shoal Creek trail…
Well, I made some new friends and biked around once the weather cleared up and had some awesome dinners with awesome people and it’s beginning to almost feel like I live here in Austin. Which is good because technically I moved here 5 months ago next week (although I long joked that I was moving…
