Hey y'all…….yes, I'm still here.  If you tried to pop by the blog in the last day or two…..it was down.  My web host had some technical issues, but all is fixed.  And honestly? Instead of being upset,  I decided to take the time to unplug a little.  This was our last weekend as a family before winter vacation ended…..and it was nice to relax and spend a little less time than usual on the internet.  

If you follow my Instagram, then you know we took Lydia to Disneyland for the first time.  It was amazing, she was seriously overjoyed.  The castle, Dumbo rides, and Minnie's house were huge hits (stand by, we'll be sharing pictures around here soon)!

how-to-wear-duck-boots6So, let's talk about how to wear duck boots.  I've been avoiding them like the plague because, well…..it doesn't rain that often in LA.  But, man…..the last couple weeks we've seen more rain than I saw all year.  Between rain while visiting our families and a rare storm that hit when we returned……I sure am glad I bought these boots…they've come in handy!

My secret for how to wear duck boots and not look my wardrobe has been drenched? Color! Lots of color!  Instead of pairing my boots with simple jeans and a tee……I threw on a pair of bright red pants before stomping through puddles on the way to a shopping date last week.  You've gotta brighten up a dreary rainy day somehow, right? how-to-wear-duck-boots5

    Rocking those boots Carly… what a difference the red pants make… if your wearing jeans, it wouldn’t look as cool and hip…. Really love the look !

    Taking a little one to Disneyland is so fun! Love how you wore these boots, I am still on the fence on about buying some rain boots. I was expecting more rain for this el Nino year.

    Thank you for joining TBT Fashion link up and hope to see you next week. Have a great weekend!

    I love duck boots – it’s such a great way to get through the winter snow and slush. Your red jeans are so fun too.

🍦 Eating Ice Cream In a Swimsuit……Groundbre 🍦 Eating Ice Cream In a Swimsuit……Groundbreaking.But…..for me it is.  Even after I felt comfortable wearing a suit…..I didn’t feel comfortable EATING in a suit.  I felt like, who was I? With curves and rolls on display to have the audacity to eat french fries or an ice cream cone. Here’s to having the audacity this summer.  whatever that looks like for YOU.
🚗 Road Trips……Which one are you?⠀ ⠀ Thi 🚗 Road Trips……Which one are you?⠀⠀This weekend we flew to Sacramento and then road tripped north to see my family up in the mountains.  It was so much fun to spend time together, and it reminded me….we are ALL one of these people on a toad trip.⠀⠀Bonus points to the VERY nice road trip vehicle we had…..the team at @MazdaUSA lent us a 2023 Mazda CX-50 Turbo Premium Plus and it was AMAZING (it even had a wireless charging dock for our phones). It made my snack stops even better (yup, we tried Dutch Bros for the first time and OMG we need them to expand to more Southern California locations ASAP).⠀⠀So, which are person are YOU on a road trip? ⠀⠀#familytravel #drivemazda
….and also why are we commenting negatively abou ….and also why are we commenting negatively about people’s appearances in 2023?Double also: if the worst thing people on the interwebs can say about me is that they don’t like my smile…..then I feel pretty good about what type of person I’ve chosen to be.
💕Because we all want our kids to soar………⠀⠀So fitting right? Elvis named this plane after his daughter.  And all I’ve been thinking about throughout our St Jude experience…..is how certain things truly bond all of us.  Certain things cross economic barriers and continent and language differences.  Parenthood is one of those.  It’s a universal experience.  And I think whether we are parents or role models or aunties or friends……we all know what it’s like to dream and hope on behalf of a child in your life.⠀⠀In 2012, when I was newly married and not yet a parent one of my students was diagnosed with cancer.  Without revealing details about her or her family, I think it’s important to recognize that economic barriers prevented what should have been an earlier diagnosis.  It was one of many times I was reminded during my time with the amazing humans in my classrooms that…..we do NOT all have the same access or experiences in life.  That student and her family were one of the miracle stories.  In fact, when she came back to class, she complained about missing soccer games at recess and fell right back in with the rest in a way that to this day brings joyful tears to my eyes. ⠀⠀I said this on my stories during my trip, but…..I didn’t realize until this experience that families at St Jude NEVER receive a bill.  Ever.  No matter what.  That this access gives families hope during their darkest days.⠀⠀I’m going to be teaming up with St. Jude to do a fun challenge that will hopefully inspire y’all to support them too.  Let’s just say that…..for this scared of heights, refuses to take my feet off the ground theme park girlie……I’m going to making the ultimate sacrifices.⠀⠀What rides would you want to see me go on in support of St Jude? (be kind, I’m literally TERRIFIED of any and all rides that have a height limit). You know they REALLY moved me if I’m even thinking of doing this! ⠀⠀@stjude #stjudeambassador
