Livi-isms
I have to tell you guys about the scary face. I’m thisclose to posting a picture of it, but then someone would have to make a meme and my child would be forever known as “evil toddler” or something like that. One day, out of the blue, she looked at us, slightly tilted her head…

Friday Faves
WILDCATS!! As amazing as the game was, the very best was during a media timeout when they surprised a military family with their dad/husband returning from deployment. I’d only seen YouTube videos of deployment return surprises, and it was truly incredible to see it happen before my eyes. The entire arena gave the family…

Christmas comes every time there’s a Stitch Fix box on the door. Even when I don’t keep all (or any) of the items, it’s a fun treat to try on some new things. I was secretly very excited when you guys said you wanted more posts of my Stitch Fixes. I thought you may be…

A tribute to my nana
My nana’s house has been the family hub since before I was born. After church, we’d go over to nana’s house for breakfast, donuts and coffee, which would turn into nap time, and then into the nighttime parties at her house. Located in historic downtown Tucson, it was one of the very first houses built.…

Can someone please tell me how it’s already December 17th? I keep telling myself “Oh, you have time” as far as getting things ready goes, but derp. The time hath passed. Did the holidays sneak up on us this year, or what? Usually I wait until the very last minute (aka Christmas Eve) to finish…

Speed surge cardio workout
Not a moan-day of a Monday over here: green juice with my partner in crime, a trip to Costco with minimal impulse buys (always a win), afternoon of crafts and playing here at home, an awesome dinner, (I made Jess’ turkey quinoa meatballs on the stove, and served with roasted zucchini, noodles, salad and vino)…

Pho-nomenal
After my first at-home chicken pho experience, I’m convinced that it’s kind of like enchiladas: intimidating until you actually do it and realize how easy it is. Ok, so pho is a little more time-intensive, and you can’t exactly throw anything you have into the mix (like enchiladas! Enjoy this butternut squash, bean, goat cheese,…

Hi friends <3 Happy Sunday! Hope you’ve had a wonderful weekend.

I took an amazing…

Reebok and Les Mills
[This post is part of my partnership with Les Mills and Reebok. Read on for their new collaboration details!] Oh, I love when fitness worlds collide. The teaching community here in Tucson is huge, but at the same time very small, so it’s always fun to play a who-knows-whom game with fellow instructors. Different paths…
