Our Epic October Trip (Part 1: Texas)
Sometime around mid-May, I mapped out a trip on my computer. Things were starting to open back up again, restrictions were being lifted due to the increasing availability of the vaccine, and I wanted to get the HECK out of town. At first, it started as a crazy idea. A whirlwind. Practically a tour—if we Continue reading

A Celebration and a Camel
At the beginning of September, a woman named Norma, who went to my church, passed away suddenly. She was the mother of some of my mom’s closest church friends, whom we’d all grown to know over the years, and who, for a long time, was part of our row. Most Sundays, when we were all Continue reading

It Had Been a While
I’ve been to quite a few weddings. I’ve also been in quite a few weddings. And while they are all unique in their own wonderful ways, they are also very similar—running through the same routines, the same schedule of events and the same (at least in my case) excited yet patient wait at your table Continue reading

In honor of my sister’s birthday tomorrow, I thought I’d bring back this post.

I thought about Continue reading

17 Things that Inspired Me This Year (List-cember #5)
No matter the year, no matter the season, there are always going to be things that inspire us. Things that make us want and dream or fight and persevere, things that make us laugh or dance or cheer or all of the above.

Things I’m Excited to See Again (List-cember #4)
While things are very much still tough, and the approach of the new year doesn’t have so much magic as it does desperate hope for something better, I am trying my best to think about the good things.

The Solvang Postcard
In the fall of my senior year of college—which as I type this I realize was nine years ago, YIKES—I studied abroad in Australia. While there, one of my absolute favorite things was to write and receive letters from friends and family back home. I love mail in general, but being a whole continent away Continue reading
