Meanwhile at home with Taylor….someone is getting some loves while we are away!








I have been listening to Jordan Petersen’s advice on life this week and have been using my commute to reflect. So this getaway to a cabin in our beloved Packwood couldn’t have come at a better time. I love the mountains. The smell of the fresh air, snow, and the fire pits bring out the warm snugglies in me. Jordan has brought me to a realization that I have talked about owning a cabin for far too long. I will own a cabin. I will live intentionally in order for that to become a reality. I have always wanted to own one because:

-We love getting a chance to sneak away and it would be cheaper than owning a hotel 🏨 
-I want to share it with others the way others have shared it with us 🏔
-ibelieve (WiFi password here) it would be a great investment
-I can pass it on to my children and their children
-I love those Cabin Porn books 
-It is a great place for family bonding and creating memories
-It’s a great place to drink loads of coffee (until your stomach protests—I am there).
-It is a great place to be inspired
-Perfect scary moving watching setting (we watched 6 in two days and still managed board games/eating/thrifting).
-Great place to wind down when we retire and maybe move to permanently.
-most importantly I want to share our next dream/passion and then watch it come into reality with Mark. It happened when we purchased our house, when we bought our hot tub, and when we purchased our passports for future travel. ibelieve dreams do come true and I want to keep dreaming BIG with my man. It keeps us young, in love, and motivated to live our best lives.

Calling All Women

The Challenge: Have as many women as I can interpret what I meant by "Spending ever day looking for new ways to reinvent our relationship." Please leave your comments so that I know I wasn't speaking a foreign language with my spouse. Men, feel free to comment as well! I'm sure you will anyways. Conversation with hubby: Me: I have a New Years Resolution that I think would be fun for us, do you want to hear it? Man: Sure Me: I think every day we should look for new ways to reinvent our relationship? Man: What do you mean? Me: I just said what I meant. Man: No you didn't really explain what you mean, though. Me: You know, finding little things that would change our relationship...doing something each day. Man: That seems taxing! Me: Working on our relationship is work? Man: Yeah, I wouldn't know what to do. That's 365 days, you know. Me: There are calendars out there that will tell you things to do that are romantic! Buy one. Man: Yeah, but most of them are ...

Monday, when we got back from our anniversary trip, found a note on the counter that read: Suzanne called. Play group. Tuesday at 830am. Who would schedule a playgroup so early? Doesn't anyone sleep in? Let the kids find their own breakfast, and stay under the covers till they beg for lunch? Well, you know heat here in the summers, ranging around the 100's, makes us southerners wake up early in the a.m. to do the things we enjoy. When noon rolls around, we hull up in our homes, doors tightly shut, curtains drawn, trying to escape the BIG BAD (the sun appropriately named, right Spike?)! I guess that was not in the cards for us today! We spent the early morning hours playing at the park with pretty much everyone from Journey! Unfortunately around 10 a.m. the heat found us and forced us to retreat to Suzanne's house for some relief! We had a great time chatting, the conversation ranged from ovulation...and ended with ovulation. I think Micheal enjoyed the conversation as much ...

My latest obsessions….puzzling The week after Coyote made a surprise visit! It’s been awhile since I posted! I was just looking back on some posts and giggled so I think it is important to continue since posts tell the story of my life. These pictures were from our latest venture to Paso Robles to see Coyote! Mark, I, and Charlie drove to Paso Robles California in approximately 18 hours. We stayed three glorious days and drove home within the sametime frame. While we were there, we got to see Hearst Castle, visited San Luis Obispo, saw the ocean and tons of beached Sea creatures, ate amazing food, drank amazing coffee, visited a couple of thrift stores, art galleries, and was surprised to find a outdoor vending machine full of specialty meats and cheeses. We purchased a cheese that was literally black all the way through. It was so good and tasty. It had a wonderful lemon taste to it and was very mild. Our Airbnb was located on a Vineyard. Coyote, Kees, and Pharaday even came over and ...
