A Mountain Magical Weekend
Late last week, my mom and I had the chance to defend our title at the 2013 Mountain Magic golf tournament! This marks the third consecutive year that we’ve been partners (read 2011 and 2012 recaps here), and it was as fun, exhilarating and exhausting (in a good way) as ever. We arrived at the […]
Europe, Day Three: Four Corners, Four Views of Paris

If you are celebrating Valentine’s Day, I hope it’s wonderful. If you’re not a fan, then happy Thursday! Last weekend I […]
STL + FnB
It’s hard to believe that Christmas is one week away. My heart has certainly been reminded of the true meaning of the season and the importance of telling family and friends how much I love them. It is simultaneously broken and hurting for all of the families affected by the horrific event that transpired in […]
