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
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! 🙂 We did yoga a couple … Continue reading Friday Things
Favorite Finds Lately
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
Some Outfits
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
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
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
A Story about a Girl Who Didn’t Exist
Bettina was a little girl who had a best friend, a very very best friend. She showed up outside in the cherry trees when it was adventure time, underneath the dinner table for sharing secrets, and in the attic when they were playing make believe with the dress-up box. Bettina's real name was Bethany, but … Continue reading A Story about a Girl Who Didn’t Exist
Hair Stuff
You know what I think is crazy? The way people talk about middle parts as if they were never a thing. HELLO! They were a thing like, five years ago! Don't you have any recollection of that?? And most importantly, do you not remember the nineties? All I could think about (in terms of hair) … Continue reading Hair Stuff
Friday Things
I like these things... Have you seen Interstellar? It's one of the most well-written, best acted, and cinematically impressive movies I've seen in a couple of years. I couldn't stop thinking about it for days! It was almost - but not quite - as completely mind-shattering as 2001. I still haven't seen Gravity (I'm scared it … Continue reading Friday Things
