I’m kind of in love with my middle name. A few other things I’m in love with: the color pink, chocolate, plush blankets, and laughing…a lot.
I’m a podcast listener, book reader, fair-weather 5K runner, and lover of Jesus. The best compliment I’ve ever received is being called a Human Ray of Sunshine. I spend most my days trying to convince people that Slytherin is the strongest Hogwarts house and that iced mocha is my blood type.
My favorite people are my family and my boyfriend Derek, who has baby blue eyes that will stop you in your tracks. Luckily, he doesn’t mind that I stare at him <3
I firmly believe that time and Taylor Swift can heal all wounds, the importance of chips and queso cannot be understated, and you can learn something new every day.

I thought about titling this post, “I have no idea what to write about,” then I thought about talking about why I’m not celebrating Valentine’s Day even though I have a boyfriend this year, THEN I realized that it’s my first post of 2019, so what else than a natural life update for you all?…

You remember when I was a runner? Because I don’t. I mean, I know I was one, once upon a time. I have a whole health category that has post after post talking about it. In my guest room, I have my 2017 5K bibs framed along with all my medals, cups, scarves and other fun…

I’ve been seeing a lot of those “Word of the Year” posts circulating on the interwebs lately. K-Love talked about how the Oxford word of the year is “toxic” (how sad!) and Merriam Webster’s word of the year is “justice.” This year, I realized that my word for 2018 has been fulfillment. When I look back on…

On Saturday November 17, I flew to North Carolina for the start of a six day vacation. On Sunday November 18, while overlooking Cape Fear in Wilmington, NC, on the site that the rivercourt scenes of my favorite show One Tree Hill were filmed on, my mom called me and told me we were going…

You know what week it is, everybody? PREMIERE. WEEK. Honestly, it’s right up there with Christmas week and the first week of March Madness as one of my favorite weeks of the year. Compared to 2016 and 2017, my lineup is pretty tame / light this year. That’s probably (most definitely) because a couple of…

Disclaimer: For the purposes of this story, the gentleman in question’s name is Bill. Spoiler alert: it’s not actually Bill. Okay, people, strap in. A few things from my last post. I have not been doing well. My house has been a MESS, I haven’t really exercised since my 5K on August 11, I haven’t…

Alright, folks, so we’re just gonna dig right in here. You know how I wrote in my last post that there was a guy who was making me smile? Well, a week later, apparently I don’t make him smile. Or we’re not making each other smile. You get the point – no smiling happening anymore.…

I haven’t written in months. Literally, it’s been over a month since my last blog post. July must be the month because I’m pretty sure I didn’t blog last July either. But at least I still have my blog? Anyway, I’m writing now, and honestly I’m just going to start typing and see what comes…

Woo hoo, a book post! I don’t do enough of these. I absolutely love watching booktube videos (a sub-section of the youtube community dedicated fully to book wonderfulness!). I would love to be more of a book blogger (s/o to The Drunk Quill), but I barely have time to shower, let alone read as much…

I. Am. Blessed. My favorite place to be is with my boyfriend Derek, my family and my friends. I have a wonderful network who make me smile every time I see their faces pop up on my phone or spend time with them. Learn more about my favorites here.
