Month: June 2019

We really do meet the neatest people in our travels. Here in Breckenridge, Colorado, our neighbor Joanne is an author! She let us borrow a copy of her children's book, Peter the Caterpillar. Chris and…

I was at Whole Foods the other day when I spotted these cute Melissa & Doug sprinklers for kids! They are adorable!

James used to be a fetch Poodle. He still LOVES fetch, but at 9 years old, he isn't running quite as far and as fast as he used to. Last summer, we bought him this frisbee when we were in Breckenridge, Colorado. He doesn't chase the frisbee…

When we were living in Europe, one thing we noticed was that products were almost always local. And not just food. Chris bought new boots in Germany. The boots were made in Germany. I bought towels in Austria. The towels were made in Austri…

I am addicted to ... I mean I enjoy looking at ... the "Just Arrived" section of Sephora's app. I usually check it before bed. Last night, I found a fun new surprise! Lululemon (link no longer available) is joining the beauty bandwagon! For…

(Photo credit MANDEL NGAN/AFP) Last week, a single F-35 flew over the White House for the Polish president's visit. I would have LOVED to be in DC to watch it! Instead, I got the best laughs I've had in a while reading my neighbors comments…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbEfzuCLoAQ I really enjoy the YouTube channel Wendover Productions. We love traveling all over Europe by train. But the thing is, cities in Europe are SO much closer to each other (for the most part). Here i…

Back in April, James celebrated his 9th birthday. James was quite sick on his birthday so we didn't take any official birthday portraits until the end of May. James is doing much better and he looks great! Not all storms come to disrupt you…

There was so much snow we had to get James' snow boots out of his closet! James likes to eat snow. What? Do I have some on my nose? Eating snow again!

This Spring in Colorado... wait... it is Summer... has been cold! We keep getting snow and I am starting to wonder when summer will start. It is finally getting up to the 60s and 70s during the day so the snow does quickly melt when it does…

I am always on a quest to find the best mascara. There are so many good ones out there! These three are my current favorites and I have them in my makeup bag right now. Clinique High Impact Mascara I'…

We decided to get up in the middle of the night and take some night sky photos. I didn't bring my big cameras - just my little Canon G7x. Chris brought his 360° camera and he also did some time lapse …

If you know me in person or if you have followed this blog for a while, you know I LOVE makeup. I love playing with it and finding the best of the best. I'm always on the hunt for something newer and better (especially when it comes to masc…

One thing I love about Colorado is that so many people have so many outdoor hobbies. It has been an unusually cold and wet May (now June!) and people are still skiing! I love seeing the skis and snowb…
