Dear Santa

Dear Santa

It’s been one busy holiday season, that I haven’t even really thought much about what I want, then again I’m a pretty simple girl wanting health, happiness and love above all. But this year there are a few things that I’m actually in dire need of, say a perfume, and quality fitness gear to get…

Holiday Gift Guide {The Men}

Holiday Gift Guide {The Men}

We often think it’s hard to buy gifts for the men in our lives, because either you can’t figure out what they like or you think they’ll just not like it. I use to be someone like that, but I’ve grown to really appreciate gifting the men on my list, mostly in part because through…

Fall Kale Soup

Fall Kale Soup

It seems I’ve been on a soup kick lately, starting with this and most recently this. The Portuguese cuisine is iconic for the Caldo Verde, or Kale Soup, traditionally made with white potatoes and chorizo. But this isn’t my Avo’s typical Kale Soup. I originally thought sweet potatoes would be a good replacement for the…

Ready. Set. Run 100 Million Miles

August 30, 2013 · Leave a Comment

I can’t believe that September has dawned upon us already, this summer has gone by quicker than the blink of an eye. I shared early this month that although I’m beyond busy planning two huge events for work, I’m taking on the extra personal challenge to participate in Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation‘s 100 Million Mile…

The 100 Million Mile Run

The 100 Million Mile Run

I recently decided that I would push myself and take action for one of my favorite causes. I first became involved with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation in 2011 when I ran my very first 5k and became a part of their annual Lemon Run. The ALSF began when cancer patient Alexandra “Alex” Scott decided she…

Running to the Finish {Week 2}

Running to the Finish {Week 2}

I’m guilty of falling behind on posting my 5k training program, but as I mentioned earlier this morning I had a mini technology-less vacation this weekend. If you fall behind because of me I apologize, but you can combine Monday’s cardio routine with Wednesday’s strength training so you don’t lose a workout or take it…

Running to the Finish {Week 1}

Last week I mentioned that I’ve been having some foot pain during my runs and started a resistance training routine specifically designed for runners and strengthening feet and ankles. As per my doctor’s request, I wasn’t allowed to run until I got new sneakers. Well two weeks passed, still no sneakers and my body was…

I love everything about entertaining. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing & I’m a sucker for wedding videos. I dream about these things, it’s true. But what I love most, is working with amazing people to create meaningful & unique celebrations…..

Instagram post 2193145886518090006_20110111 Words for the weekend, the holiday season & every other day of the year!✨And yes I photocopied & framed this from the latest issue of Magnolia Journal, it pretty much sums up my approach to the holidays this year.....
reusing what I already have,
woods & greens to celebrate
the beauty in Mother Nature’s bareness,
fairy lights that remind me of starry night skies
& this little penguin (who has been my only 
non-necessary purchase) because I love 
penguins & it makes me smile 
every time I’m at my desk working🐧❄️🌿
Instagram post 2192265495171179698_20110111 A little but special throwback to our Gift Wrap & Give Back Holiday Party! We gathered up the gals for some bites, wrapped donated gifts & wrote cards - all for kids who don’t get to celebrate the holidays or receive the kind of gifts most do....this is one of the easiest ways you can get together w. friends this holiday season while doing some REAL good!

Grab your friends, have them each donate a toy/gift for a local community drive or a family in need, then have each person bring a dish & something to wrap with! Get all the ideas for this party on the blog & make your own special “Give Back” holiday party💚
Instagram post 2190101455565098681_20110111 December ..... while most dive into the crazed chaos, I will honor your Slowness🌿I will still celebrate the things I love about the holiday season, but I will do it in a more natural way; an homage to the restorative & simplistic beauty of Mother Nature this time of year.

I will continue to be grateful, showing my kindness & love towards others, even if it’s a simple act of baking cookies or giving away a coat.

I will reflect & cherish all the days before. I will live in each present moment, but also dream & envision new plans for goals I know I’m on my way to achieving, new places to explore, new adventures, new people to meet.

I will continue to learn & grow into an even better version of myself as I celebrate the final days of another year & the beginnings of a new.....✨
Instagram post 2187181187284835024_20110111 Grateful. For the good, the bad, the unpredictable...grateful for it all! Hope you all spend your Thanksgiving well, may it bring you comfort & joy🧡🍁
