Memorial Day
While we’re enjoying a BBQ with friends, while I’m smashing 15 avocados to make guacamole, and Livi’s giggles are the soundtrack, I’ll be keeping in mind the sacrifices made by so many to protect our freedoms. I’ll be praying for the families of the heroes who lost their lives, sending love and wishes for a…

10 of my favorite Cinco de Mayo Recipes
I absolutely love Cinco de Mayo. Another reason to have a margarita the size of my head? Check. Dance to mariachis? Si si. Spend time eating delicious food with the fam? Yep yep yep. Ok, so it’s not really much different than any other day over here, but I’m still a fan 😉 Nana…

Healthy Easter (without eating like a rabbit)
It’s always a nice surprise when I can hit up a yoga class. Usually, I’ll just do a few poses at home if I get a chance, but it’s a treat to be able to take a class at a live studio. I hit up the $4 hot class with some friends and it was…

Meals and Fitness for the week
Hi from San Diego! We decided to take a little long weekend getaway. I’m so excited to be here with my little fam, surrounded by ocean, seals… oh, and gluten-free cupcakes. What more could a girl wish for? We got into La Jolla at 2:30am- Liv was WIDE AWAKE and cracking up like a little…

Sweets for your sweet
I don’t think I’m going to give anything up for Lent this year. For starters, I’ve already consumed my usual Lent-banned suspects within the past 24 hours: nut butter, wine and chocolate. Next to that, I’ve found that having a little one means that I’ll eat pretty much anything that’s available and quick. Sweet potato…

In the New Year…
2012 was an amazing, amazing year. It definitely went by a little more quickly than I would have liked, but was a life-changer. Livi was born in the very beginning of the year (I’m still in shock that her birthday is next week!) and we’ve also added a fur sister for Bella. Our house and…

Out with a bang + party apps, cocktails
Can you believe that Monday is New Years eve?! What do you have planned? I think we’re going to spend the day relaxing and then head to a family/friend party later that night. Since little miss will be a pumpkin by about 8pm or so (even though she stayed awake until 9 on Christmas Eve),…

First Christmas with Liv
I’m pretty sure nothing in the world makes me happier than A house filled with the people I love so much, warm food waiting in the kitchen, (+ egg casserole, ham, tamales, oatmeal, mimosas and the necessary nog) and moments that are so beautifully imprinted in my mind. After the Pilot, Liv, MIL and I…

Red and green and plaid all over
Before setting off for Christmas Eve dinner and festivities, we took a family hike at Sabino Canyon. The weather was absolutely gorgeous, the streams were running from the recent rain, and it felt nice to shake our legs out while enjoying beautiful scenery. After our adventure, we met up with the cousins for our annual…
