Controlled Chaos Travels the World
If you are ever in the DC area on a nice day, I highly recommend getting outdoors and slightly away from the city. We recently ventured to Great Falls Park in McLean, VA to enjoy some great outdoors Our weather has been awful lately so we were sure to take advantage of a warm, sunny… Continue reading Take a Hike
On Friday, it actually felt like Spring. We had been waiting for this day for ages and I can't wait for its repeat. We decided that since the weekend weather was supposed to be cold and crummy, Friday was our best bet for cherry blossoms. Even though the hubby has been in DC for training… Continue reading Cherry Blossoming
Long time, no see readers. Sorry for the hiatus. I figured that I would take a brief break after my last post, regroup, go on vacay, and then hit it hard when the kids went back to school after Spring Break. They are back now and so am I. I have recently discovered a love… Continue reading A Study in Olive

I honestly didn't expect to be so out of it the first week after. I figured that while… Continue reading Instagram Round Up
A couple of things this past week have gotten me thinking. Everything is relative given your situation and life experiences. Bear with me while I get where I am going. We had a pretty big wind storm this week in DC, as did most of the east coast to be fair. It was windy for… Continue reading Perspective
Hi there! My apologies that this post is a bit late. Our entire neighborhood was without internet on Tuesday. I actually didn't know that was even possible! And since my "activity" is a bit restricted as I recover from surgery, I couldn't go hang out at Starbucks all day to get this post up. So,… Continue reading Morning Routine Update
Sometimes, in the busyness of everyday life, being a wife, mother, friend, volunteer, etc. I forget to take notice of how very blessed I am. Often, it takes the world grinding to a halt to make me really see how blessed I am again. This Monday I had surgery. I have actually been putting off… Continue reading Blessed
