I LOVE Dogeared Jewelry so much. The bracelets, necklaces, and earrings come in the sweetest little packages with precious advice. Soccer Mom gave me my first Dogeared necklace my junior year of HS. It was a little tiny key to symbolize the key to my heart. I wore it everyday for about a year, and I…
I’ve been away from the blogging world for a few days now, but have lots to fill you in on 🙂 Above: Soccer Mom & Dad and me in front of Georgetown on Easter morning. Above: Soccer Mom & Dad and me on Friday afternoon after my race. Above: My Californian friend has been OFFICIALLY…
Somehow, I only have two finals out of my five classes. I feel pretty lucky, except I have MANY final papers. I’m currently working on my second to last paper for my ethics class and I’m just about dying doing so. Philosophy is not for everyone, and I believe I am the perfect example. Thinking…
Phew. So this weekend was far from normal. The Heavyweights were scheduled to race UVa here in DC this weekend. Friday would normally be spent doing a shorter workout preparing for the race the next day, but the wind was pretty bad so we had a late launch. Luckily, our coach found a little…
An organization at Georgetown puts on an annual “Diplomatic Ball” where diplomats from a ton of countries come and the students get to mingle with them. When I first heard about it, I wasn’t planning on attending. But then, one of my friends decided to go, so, obviously, I just had to go. I quickly…
If you’re like me, you’re closet is overflowing with Lacoste. I wear it ALL the time. I just got an email for 25% off purchases of 100 dollars or more. YAY! Just type in FRIEND09 🙂 UPDATE: Tucker Blaire is having a ONE day sale today. Buy a belt and get a FREE Key…
It’s the second day of April, and the second rainy day in a row. My lifesaver for days like these: Vineyard Vines Nor’Easter Jacket. I find myself wearing this nearly everyday. It’s light enough for warm days, but can be layered with fleeces for colder days. The hood makes you look kinda like a duck,…
If you haven’t already noticed, I’m a little bit obsessed with the weather. I seriously check weather.com every five minutes. Especially with crew, I feel like I need to know the EXACT temperature and wind speed. I have the Blackberry application for my cellphone so that with just one little click, my screen is my…
If you asked my dad 5 years ago which of his two daughters would he think would be participating in a sport on the collegiate level, he would have HANDS DOWN said my sister. I have played nearly EVERY sport ever invented for at least one practice: Gymnastics, dance, horseback riding, synchronized swimming, swimming, soccer,…
I created a beautiful, custom silk photo album from @printique_by_adorama to remember my sweet dog Hamilton, who passed away earlier this year. Their layflat album captured the colors and details perfectly, making each photo feel so special. It’s a keepsake I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful for the quality and love they put into every page. #printiquepartner
… and yet you must. This week has been the hardest yet. Pressure from work, pressure from myself, pressure from the world. The magnitude of reality feels too much and too heavy. Showing up for my children though when I can barely show up for myself.
We’ve noticed an improvement in Teddy’s vitality and digestion since switching to @primalpetfoods Kibble in the Raw! It’s the easiest way to give him the benefits of raw nutrition without losing the convenience of dry kibble since it’s freeze dried into bites and completely scoopable. You would never guess he’s 11 years old with these moves at the park! #primalpetfoodspartner #ad
In that final home stretch of 2024 and waffling between wanting to plan out every second of my day/week/month and needing to also just fly by the seat of my pants. Holding on for dear life and telling myself to just enjoy the ride 🤪
When the boys go down for bed, sometimes it feels akin to crossing the finish line of a marathon! With my @therabody Theragun Sense, now I’m able to unwind and relax from the #WorkoutCalledLife. With step-by-step prompts on an LCD screen (and accompanying app), the Theragun Sense guides you through different recoveries depending on what your goals are. Tonight, I’m prepping for restful sleep with a six-minute guided massage! #TherabodyPartner
Halloween 2024 was one for the memory books 🏈 Rory’s first Halloween!! Jack had a blast, Rory loved tagging along, and Mike and I couldn’t stop smiling 🤍 I don’t know how many years I’ll be able to convince the boys to coordinate their costumes so really taking advantage- I bought Jack’s football player costume (customized!) and sewed Rory’s football bubble myself (Jack asked if he could throw him, which was a resounding and firm, “no.”). Now time to raid Jack’s stash 😛
#AveenoPartner If your little one has eczema prone skin, try switching to @aveenous’s Baby Daily Care Wash during bath time to cleanse without drying out their skin. We also use Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Moisturizing Body Balm before bed to intensely moisturize and help protect Rory’s skin from moisture loss! Not only does his skin feel and look healthier, he’s so much more comfortable too! You can buy both of these products today on Amazon!
