This is a mashup of how I feel today. Vulnerable, a little sad, a little restless. A lot grateful for friendships. But a whole lot of that learning to be a friend thing—always learning. Most of my learnings of late have come from the sharing part of friendship, the part where I need someone’s help or…
I’m gonna brag here for a minute. Not even humblebrag, just straight up brag. Y’all, my family is awesome. Not just my mama, dad, and bro (happy 30th!!), but my entire extended family of aunts and uncles, cousins, cousin/brother (NOT a weird TX thing), cousins-in-law, cousin’s girlfriend, and baby cousins!! Everyone gets along so well…
This is funny: click to open the #GivingTuesday Circular Following the shopping frenzies of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a way of reminding consumers to give back after days of shopping.

Who rescued who? Denali was sick this week—and that turned me into a crazy hypochondriac mom who was certain she had cancer—but she is on the mend and healthy and I am so incredibly grateful. Despite her skittishness and other issues, she’s an incredibly easy dog. And she is SO full of personality … Grateful…
Gratitude for these guys! So many shenanigans this past week with my fam, with the football team, with my marketing team on a duffy boat and my porch … so much fun.
But I don’t wear flip-flops. Last week I wrote about putting too much identity pressure on myself for sports and fitness. This week, I (actually kind of accidentally) focused on activities that aren’t fitness and … drumroll … ONLY WENT TO THE GYM ONCE. Whoa! But it was still a busy, jam-packed week with a…
This was my very first Feel Good Friday post. FIVE years of gratitude! In it, I name yoga, fitness, friends, love ferns, fashion, and wine.
