gratitude for my folks, quiet night & fresh mex

my folks... what can I say, they're awesome and they give the best advice ever

a quiet night at home, a few chores, a hot shower, and cooking a delicious meal for my husband

fresh mex.... it's what I call delicious mexican food that hasn't been fried, covered in cheese and sour cream.... its fresh, zesty, spicy and oh so yummy

PB & J, faint smell of woodsmoke and so proud of Jeffrey

Don't know why, but right now I can't get enough of peanut butter and raspberry jelly baguettes

mmmm Autumn is around the corner, and I can smell woodsmoke in the air

tonight we had a big meeting that showed me just how awesome my husband is, how much work he has put into everything and how freaking proud I am of him

surfing with Jeffo, photo album and book reading

wow, a Sunday surf together.... its been a while, and the surf wasn't that great but it felt so good to be in the water together

when we got home, I made a photo album full of beautiful memories called Simple Happy Days.

there is something about sneaking into bed to read a book on a Sunday afternoon that just feels so right

new bike, candles and moving furniture

I kinda splurged today and bought myself a new bike.... its purple, and it makes me feel free !!

burning candles is such a simple way to make a place feel calm, the smell, the flicker of warm light .... love it

we moved the couch today, I remember when I was a kid I used to love moving furniture around. Not sure why, but it definitely has a positive edge to it

baking a cake, empowering decision and a picture of happiness

baking a cake....... a simple thing to do that gives me such pleasure. Giving that cake to someone else is an added bonus :)

we made a really hard call today that took real courage, and I'm really really proud of us

there is a picture that I have stuck up on my wall at the office. We took it when we were in Mexico about 5 years ago. It is full of happiness and joy. It reminds me of very happy, simple days

back in the swing of it, Jules and after work SUP

ok, back to work today...... felt good to be back in the swing of it and part of the team

an awesome message arrived today from someone who really appreciated some words I had sent. Some people in life just seem to stop you in your tracks and make you remember what is important. I don't really know why, but Jules did that for me, and her shiny smile inspires me to follow my heart.

after a crazy day, we cruised to the lake for an after work SUP.... just splooshing around in the cool water, and washing off work

new lunch spot, message from a far-away friend and sunshine

we found a new lunch spot today.... well I say we found, but its actually next door to our office. Mmmm super fresh yummy noodles.

a message from a far away friend who I haven't seen in forever. We think the same way, and that's nice.

the sun was blazing today and the sky seemed extra blue
