Puerto Rico Part III: Old San Juan

May 30, 2015May 26, 2017 sydni jackson6 Comments

I wanted to put up this post last week, but I never got the energy to finish it. Things have been busy around here, to say the least! Such is life as a missionary staff member… LOTS to do, and lots of travel, and it’s all “normal”! Yesterday was my last day in the office,… Continue reading Puerto Rico Part III: Old San Juan

Friday Things

May 22, 2015 sydni jackson2 Comments

I like these things… I had a good week, did you? I got a 3-day pass to LA Fitness with my friend Jenny, and taught her how to do freestyle and backstroke. It was so rewarding to see her catch on so fast to the strokes I taught her! šŸ™‚ We did yoga a couple… Continue reading Friday Things

Favorite Finds Lately

May 21, 2015 sydni jacksonLeave a comment

Here are some of the best new items I’ve purchased…   So, Anthropologie decided to be a winner and give 20% off their entire store for Mother’s Day weekend. I stocked up on Rifle Paper Company cards and a few goodies that I’d been wanting for around the house. I was planning to return this… Continue reading Favorite Finds Lately

Just a few things I’ve worn here and there. Thought it might be fun to document a little bit! Please forgive the lighting and overall quality slash facial expressions.

In Response to All the Child-Having Articles

May 18, 2015August 21, 2016 sydni jackson4 Comments

I’m at that stage in life where my friends are starting to have kids. Some of them are pregnant, some of them have babies, and some of them wish that they were having children. I’ll just come right out and say it: I’m not there. Not “I’m not there” in the “I’m not there yet”… Continue reading In Response to All the Child-Having Articles

Puerto Rico Part II: Wedding

May 13, 2015May 26, 2017 sydni jackson2 Comments

The whole reason I went to Puerto Rico was to celebrate my cousin’s wedding. On Monday we joined the wedding party for the rehearsal lunch. In true latino style, everyone was late, and the food took forever. The restaurant was at the top of a hill, and the map had a wrong turn, which led… Continue reading Puerto Rico Part II: Wedding

My style is a mash-up of laid-back hippie with preppy tendencies. My husband and I live in France with our fluffy white cat named Tela. I love Jesus, photography, Phish, the color turquoise, and tropical islands.

The ā˜€ļø was out today and the temperature exceeded 50, so now I’m all - okay, time for summer!! #water #warmth #rosĆ©
Happy Valentine’s Day, friends! You are loved! ā¤ļø
In the winter months, I love to stay cozied up on my couch. Reading, watching a show, browsing the internet, just resting, or talking with friends - I’m content to stay cuddled up all day. Because I’m still for longer periods of time, I end up reading a lot more. What’s more enjoyable on a cold day than watching the snow fall in your peripheral while nestled in a good story? On the flip side, I also love summer reading. I always want to soak up the sun when it’s shining hot and full, and taking a good book with me is a good excuse to stay outside. But with all the travel and activities that come with summer, I tend to read less than I aspire to. When do you read? #10thingstotellyou
It’s 2pm and I just realized it’s February 1. Does that mean this month is going to fly by? I normally feel like I suffer through the cold and dark winter months, but looking back on photos from when we lived in Blacksburg, I really do cherish the slowness of winter hibernation. Staying inside, baking, reading magazines, and cuddling kittens in warm blankets are pretty nice after months of being on the go. Do you like February? What are your favorite parts of winter?
