July Around The Web

Summer is definitely in full swing! This month had moments of normal (we spent the day at the lake with Dale’s family for the Fourth of July, dinners outside with friends…) my WFH schedule continues indefinitely. I’ve been lucky that Dale has had a slightly less busy schedule lately and we have been able to spend more time together. The most eventful news of the month was getting tile added behind our tub and at the base of our fireplace and getting our bathtub resurfaced, marking the end of our mini bathroom renovation! Last up will be finding a decorative mirror (this one perhaps?) and then the space will be totally complete.

Enjoy the sunshine, friends!

June Around The Web

Recapping the month these days feels so different. With so much happening there is a lot, and many necessary things, to take in and learn and grow from. I’ve been reading a lot, participating in a listening series on racism in Kansas City put on by the KC Chamber, and have still been working from home during the pandemic. Growth is happening all around us, and hopefully within ourselves too, but it’s hard and some days I really do miss my normal routine. Also at the same time life continues on. This month we celebrated my sister Grace’s 16th birthday and my sister Sophie got engaged! Time is moving so fast and so slow, in many ways I can’t believe we are already headed into July but here are a few things that caught my eye this month:

Stay safe, friends!

May Around The Web

Hello, friends. In lieu of my usual links around the web I felt compelled to share some resources for learning, donating, and shopping to support #BlackLivesMatter. I know I personally can do better and hope to become a more effective ally and learn from the unfolding current events.

April Around The Web

After spending the entire month of April WFH and social distancing I’ve started to settle into a routine. Work has been busy and Spring has arrived in my yard and mostly I’m feeling grateful to be healthy, have a job, and have a home to spend this time in. Of course I miss seeing my friends and family in person but I had plenty of time to find some inspiration around the web this month!

April Showers Bring May Flowers

March Around The Web

Hello, everyone! I hope you are well, what a strange and sad month March turned out to be! We were lucky to safely make it back from Costa Rica and shortly after that Kansas City went into social distancing full swing. I don’t know what April will bring but I do know that I’m thinking of everyone affected by Covid-19, especially New York City. And as a wife of a doctor I’m really proud of all the amazing health care workers. I especially loved seeing rainbows in Brooklyn as shared by Joanna of Cup of Jo – the three story rainbow window display by Linsey Laidlaw and her kids takes the cake!

February Around The Web

Hello, friends! February has come to a close and while there were lots of bright spots overall it was a hard month. I’m excited to head into March! Some of this month’s highlights included celebrating my friend Alyissa’s birthday, the Chiefs WON the Super Bowl, I got to see Grace’s school musical, had a multitude of work happy hours, got to recruit interns at KU again, celebrated Valentine’s Day, went rock climbing for a friend’s birthday, celebrated my birthday, and had a fun mother/daughter trip to Family Tree! Here are my favorites around the web:

  • I need to make this wreath next year for Valentine’s Day!

  • This recipe is on my list to try!

  • I loved reading all the comments on this post

  • Never jumped on the Rothy’s bandwagon but I love these!

  • Cute new DIY from Think.Make.Share.

  • You know how much I love flowers and this was an interesting read

  • This workout is also on my list to test out! I would love to take a class from Megan

  • If you are from Kansas City, I bought the sweatshirt version of this t-shirt to celebrate the Chiefs’ win!

    Ready for ya, March!
