Personal Blog

It's been a long time, people! I set some pretty big goals last year for my blog (like blogging once a week) and then I stopped blogging all together.

I took a step back to figure out what I really wanted out of a blog, practice my skills elsewhere, and come back with a better plan.

This year I had been writing down recipes with the intention of starting a food blog with the hopes of helping others eat healthy,  but these last few months have changed that plan again.

What I do know for sure is that I am taking this blog back to be a space for personal posts and family updates. A forever Christmas card if you will.

Here are some highlights over the year that I have not shared:

  • Ollie turned one in April! 
  • Mine and Andrew's business took off and we are now doing that full time while being at home.
  • I quit Thumbtack after 3 years and officially left the corporate world! 
  • We bought a new car in July that our family can finally fit in (2017 Hyundai Santa Fe).
  • Our home is almost completely done on the top two levels, we will be tackling our basement next year.
  • Olive got to meet his great, great grandpa (Oliver is the 5th generation)! 
I will post some photos below for safe keeping and for journaling reasons! If you want to follow along with my cute family and our day to day lives, follow the blog!

If you follow me on social media, you've probably seen these pictures before. I am posting them to look back on and my post more photos from this year just to catch up. Don't forget to click on the link for Oliver's birthday video! 

It feels good to be back!
