Well, it’s the end of another year and I feel the need to write an obligatory New Year’s post. First, though, I realized that I never shared our holiday card like I have in the past (you can see previous ones here: 2009, 2011, 2012). This year’s card wasn’t very Christmasy because, frankly, I got […]

I’ve mentioned a few times before how much I love our little mountain town. Lately I’ve had the opportunity to get more involved in the community and work on some pretty interesting projects. One that has been especially worthwhile is the “Fix the Fork” campaign to issue $5 million in bonds that will be used […]

Congrats to Liz who was the first to correctly guess “Central Location“! Yep, this little beauty is our new abode: After perusing countless real estate listings, I can believe that the house we purchased was right under our noses the entire time. I walked by this house almost daily on my way to take the […]

We started perusing real estate ads back when moving to Colorado was still a pipe dream and quickly learned that the market here is crazy with a capital C! We knew that we’d probably have to adjust our expectations and standard of living if we eventually wanted to purchase a home in the Roaring Fork […]

I recently realized that in the eight years we’ve been married, Jason and I have lived in six different houses. Apparently we like to move a lot. Or we’re gluttons for punishment, I’m not sure. Let’s take a little tour of the places we’ve called home, shall we? Home #1 City: Austin, TX House […]

October is my favorite month of the entire year. I just want to slow down and savor everything about it – the changing colors of the leaves, the chill in the air, shorter days, cozy fires in the fireplace, fall festivals, Halloween candy, layered outfits with riding boots, and pumpkin-flavored everything. In my opinion, good […]

Ever since I discovered GoodReads I’ve become slightly obsessed with finding new book recommendations based on old favorites. Over the past few months I’ve probably read more books than I’ve read in the last two years combined. Judging by the length of my “to-read” list, I won’t be slowing down anytime soon. Out of the last […]

My newest niece is due to make her grand debut later this month and I am over-the-moon excited about meeting her! Earlier this summer I had the honor of designing the invitations and stationery for her baby shower. The hostesses decided on a cowgirl theme, which is appropriate given the fact that my brother and […]

One of my claims to fame is that I’m a notoriously light packer for trips. Case in point, I once traveled to Europe for the summer and took only what I could fit in a backpack. On another trip abroad, I packed everything in a carry-on suitcase for our two week honeymoon to Italy. (The […]

Jason and I took a much-needed week off to celebrate his completion of the Colorado Bar exam. Although I didn’t spend the past several months years studying the way he did, I was still mentally exhausted just by the very thought of it. So, clearly, it was a hard-earned vacation for the both of us. […]
