  • Whether you had a happy, sad, good, bad, grief-filled, lost, or just another normal day yesterday, I hope it was whatever you needed it to be 🙏 For all those dads, fathers, uncles, granddads, step-dads, dog dads, friends, mentors, brothers, foster dads, adoptive dads, dads of friends - please keep showing up. There is no right or wrong way to be a dad. We need you and love you. For those that we've lost, some too soon - we love you and you're missed so dearly, not just on Father's Day, but every day ❤ #fathersday2019
  • Being in Colorado this weekend has me dreaming of all the sunny, summer days 😍 One of my goals this summer is to get more tan lines 👙 because #priorities 💁‍♀️ mama needs more sun in her life! white vintage sunnies: @discountglasses #sponsored #WestendSunnies
  • Friday May 29, 2015 // pt. 2 The day "every day is a bonus day" was born. More and more people started showing up at the hospital. At some point between Thursday and Friday, I snuck home to pack us a few bags. And someone made me go home to shower (bless them). I remember getting back to the house and it feeling so stale and hollow. The silence was piercing. I quickly showered, got ready, and rushed out the door to get back to my post. I was so afraid I might miss something or I wouldn't be there if something important happened. But the flowers I had just bought the week before, still sitting in their plastic containers under the crepe myrtle, caught my eye. They had opened up, as they do in the sun, and were so pretty just doing their nature thing. Drinking up every last bit of sunshine before the sun set. I stopped to snap a pic because the simplicity of them made me smile. In the midst of my insomnia (understatement) early Friday morning, I wrote the bonus day blog post. I wasn't trying to optimize the SEO, write a catchy clickable title, add images to break up the text. I just wrote. From my heart. The words I needed to share. I typed the words as you laid in your bed resting. Counting one more bonus day with you. I knew Friday was going to be a long day, for the both of us. I honestly don't remember much of Friday - it was all starting to blur together. It makes me a little sad now, but I know lots of your people got to see you and visit with you. Waves of family and friends, new and old, filled that hospital waiting room up with love and tears for the next 36 hours. Because this time was different.
  • Thursday May 28, 2015 // pt. 1 The day we decided to leave. Breathing had become harder for you, you weren't and couldn't eat, and you were becoming weaker and weaker. Thank goodness Aunt J and Chris (@downtown547) were there and could come and help us. Aunt J pulled me into the hallway and told me, "You know this may be the last time we leave here? This may be it. You understand that, right?" Somehow I uttered the words "Yes, I know" while nodding my head and looking past her into our living room at Chris helping Kenny into his wheelchair. I still don't know how or why I said yes. It's like the future me knew, but the present me still wasn't sure, wasn't quite ready. But it was happening. After our little chat in the hallway, we finally made the decision to take you in. Chris helping you into your wheelchair, that normally you'd be reluctant to use, and you not putting up your usual fight not to go - I knew this time was different. Tank, sitting on the couch, peered over the back cushions as we pushed you out the front door, as if he knew too. We checked you in and got a normal room on your usual floor and hallway. However, the light in the room seemed a little off. There wasn't a packed bag for you for the week. There were no bags of chemo being administered. This time just felt different. I wasn't sure what to do, but my first thought was to start calling and texting people. Starting with the people closest in proximity to us who could get there now to see you. It felt weird being asked if THIS was it, if THIS was the time. Like God I sure hope not, but I wouldn't take any chances. It quickly became apparent that your usual room was not going to be big enough so they moved us to a bigger suite. I remember feeling relieved to have more space, but scared about what it actually meant. Because this time, it was different.
  • So I may have problem. I've recently discovered I'm totally obsessed with glasses 😆🤓 they're basically another accessory for any outfit! 💁‍♀️ I just got these in from @discountglasses and I'm LOVING them, especially with my new blonder hair 😍😍 👓: #DGWestend #HaydenFalls #sponsored #DGfashionista
  • The shot I got in 2017 ➡️ the same shot in 2016 🌁 . Seeing everyone's pictures of the #okcmemorial yesterday made my heart smile 🙂 and made me miss my old city. That race has and always will be special to me for various reasons. So I wanted to share some pics I've taken during the race and never shared (mostly from the last one w/@chrismadrigal8). And then sharing some of my favorite people who have done the race with me ❤❤❤ #r2r #runtoremember #okcmemorial5k #neverforgotten #okcstrong #togetherwerise
  • Happy weekend, friends! It's my birthday celebration weekend 🎉🎉🎉 kicked off the weekend with my Friday off, sleeping in, big snow flakes, a manicure 💅 (1st one in over a year 🙈), and wine tasting at one of my faves @stollerwine with a lovely woman who owns a local online boutique here to talk business (fun stuff coming soon!!) and just about life. She's a fellow Midwesterner so we bonded over so many similarities and struggles we've had since moving to Oregon and making new friends. It was so much fun and I'm excited to have a new girlfriend ☺ . Then I finished the day with some Costco shopping (and maybe pizza and a churro) and podcast listening with Chris and ending the evening with a good ol' documentary on the couch ❤ can't wait for brunch with my girls tomorrow 👭🥂🍾 . Also. Got these black #madewelljeans and I'm in love 🖤🖤🖤 if you are getting some, def size down at least one size, maybe even ✌ (added bonus 😉) they have a ton of stretch in them, and they're super comfy! And I love the faded black look 😍 def new closet staple! #everydaymadewell #targetstyle @targetstyle
  • This is 33. Currently sitting on the couch, in my sweats (I couldn't put them on fast enough when I walked through the door), sipping on a coconut la croix (saving my dranks for later this week because #adulting), about to go to bed at 8:14pm on my birthday 🎉 Kinda comes with the territory of a Monday birthday, but super excited to celebrate this weekend with my babe and best gals here in Oregon doing all the Portland things! Brunch, brews, winery, @pipsoriginal #birthdaydonuts, finding new food places, and wandering + exploring with my babe and pup 👨🐶💕 . I finally learned what a #goldenbirthday was, and although my true golden birthday would've been when I was 4 (was it even a thing then??), I'm declaring year 33 my golden birthday. March is the 3rd month, 3 is my favorite number (and 33 was Kenny's 💙), and I just have a good feeling about this one. . Laughing, always laughing. Because life is funny. . We think we have it all figured out, but we really don't. . There is no "balance." Grief changes, but never ends. . The things you thought were "forever" or for life sometimes aren't. And the things you never would have expected come at just the right time. . All you can do is laugh, take risks, be kind, and do your best 😊❤ . Here's to #33, my "golden birthday," and 33+ years to come 🥂🍾 #Ds33rdyear
