I’m wearing one white and one black sock and though I’d love to say it’s a part of some larger plan, it’s sadly because they’re the only clean socks I could find this morning. Dillon’s been a complete ass, clingy and winey until I’m about ready to strangle him. And just as I’m […]
With many of the big Tour de France names riding the Tour of California this week, I’ve been following the stats closely as the teams rode through my hometown, before finishing in Redondo Beach. Though my parents are currently visiting my brother in Australia, my dad has been able to keep up with the […]
The weekend went really well and gave me some much-needed time away. Though Chris and I have left Dillon for a night a few times, and Dillon and I have left Chris for a weekend or two, this was the first time that I had been away from the both of them. Not […]
Heading to Willamette University this weekend to visit our Beta Chi chapter, where I’ll be facilitating IMPACT alpha chi omega, a leadership conference.

It’s truly not funny. No more shitting in the bathtub.

The past couple of weeks have […]

The position would have relocated us to Dublin, Ireland and we were excited about the opportunity. […]

When the sun shines in Seattle, everyone is outside. It doesn’t matter if the temperatures are below freezing, people drop what they’re doing to get out and enjoy the sunshine. The truth is that Seattle doesn’t get near […]
Looking to get out and enjoy the sunshine, Chris and I decided to hitch up the bike trailer yesterday afternoon and take a quick ride down to the Locks. Although pretty cold, Dillon was nicely protected from the elements inside our new Burley Solo. I had been looking for a break in the […]
