  • I can’t think of a place I’d rather be with my crew on Christmas day! 🎄#shredding #sunriseparkresort #mountainspirit #wmat
  • Can I get an AMEN! ❤️❤️❤️
  • I visited Bentonville, AR last Fall and got a small taste of the mountain biking adventures they have to offer which left me thirsting for more! I knew I had to come back but even more, I knew I HAD to share the experience with my family! ⁣ ⁣ I was lucky enough to bring Emily on this trip with me to Bentonville and she’s now just as converted as I am in my love for Bentonville! ⁣ This small city in Northwest Arkansas may not be the place you’d expect to find such an epic trail network within minutes of downtown. Bentonville is a mountain bikers playground and with trails that are accessible year round it’s currently one of the top mountain biking destinations in the United States!⁣ ⁣ We aren’t mountain bike experts by any stretch of the imagination but in Bentonville we found trails that were the perfect mix of comfortable and challenging for our skill levels. ⁣ ⁣ I have so much more to tell you about the trails in and around Bentonville and why we loved them so much but suffice it to say, if you love to mountain bike as much as we do as a family then Bentonville, AR needs to be added to your BIKE-it list ASAP!⁣ ⁣ If you have any questions you’d like answered about Bentonville, the types of trails they have to offer or planning a mountain biking vacation in general fire away in the comments or shoot me a DM! I’d be happy to answer what I can! ⁣ #Sponsored #BikeBentonvilleFall @visitbentonville @bikebentonville
  • Last week Emily & I had the chance to get away to Bentonville, AR for a few days and we had such an awesome time! Ditching the big city crowds and spending a few days mountain biking is definitely our type of vacation.⁣ ⁣ This girl is graduating from high school soon and I’m trying to squeeze in every possible minute of quality time I can with her. Fall in NWA was the perfect backdrop to make some fun memories with my oldest –– we’ll remember the biking, burgers and belly laughs we shared together in Bentonville for a long time! ⁣ ⁣ More on exactly why this charming community at the base of the Ozark mountains won our hearts coming soon! In the meantime tell me –– if you could get away with one of your kiddos for some one-on-one time what would your dream trip consist of?  Does a weekend mountain biking adventure sound exciting? Is some time relaxing at the beach more your speed? ⁣ ⁣ #Sponsored #BikeBentonvilleFall @visitbentonville @bikebentonville
  • This time last year was a season of letting things go for our family. After a stressful year and looking ahead to a cross country move, I made the conscious decision to cross a few things off of my holiday to-do list. As much as I love doing Christmas cards, it just wasn’t meant to happen, and that was ok.⁣ ⁣ Fast forward one year and we’re all settled in our new home. Taking family photos and sending out cards felt like the perfect way to commemorate this new phase in our family’s life and let friends and family know where we are now. Doing Christmas cards this year felt right.⁣ ⁣ Embrace the season you're in friends. Whether it’s the year to say YES to Christmas cards or the year to say NO. The year to travel and visit family for the holidays or the year to stay home. ⁣ ⁣ There will be seasons in life that feel full and that’s ok. It’s all part of the ebb and flow. Let a few things fall to the wayside when life is busy with the knowledge that things will balance out again when a slower season of life rolls around. ⁣ ⁣ These cards I ordered from @minted are making me so happy on this dreary November day here in Northern AZ. They’re simple and understated –– just my style. It’s hard to say what’s my favorite…the little touch of gold foil or the cute photo collage on the back. ⁣ ⁣ If this is your year for holiday cards make sure you scroll through my stories for a 15% coupon code for minted.com valid through 11/26 and a peek at the collage I included on the back of our 2019 Christmas cards. #MintedHoliday @minted #sponsored
  • Big tears streamed down her plump cheeks, and her small frame shook with each sob.⁣ ⁣ My daughter's friend had just realized—right as her dad pulled out of the school parking lot—that she'd left her lunch and backpack in his car.⁣ ⁣ I watched as my daughter linked arms with her friend and gently guided her toward the school. Up until the moment they were out of my sight, I could still see her rubbing her friend's arm in support.⁣ ⁣ I was touched by the solidarity my daughter had offered her friend, and I couldn't help but pray that she never loses that innate compassion for others.⁣ ⁣ It also reminded me of all the people I know who haven't been this lucky in their moment of need. 😥⁣ ⁣ It's the smallest moments, like the one I witnessed that day in front of the school, that become the oh-so-important building blocks of kindness and compassion that we need our children to take with them through the teen years and into adulthood.⁣ ⁣ For five things you can do to nurture a child's inherent instinct for kindness—before the world tells them that it's cooler to be unkind.
