Sometimes in life you get lucky enough to be a part of special moments in another person's story. This was me tonight. Beau you looked handsome and happy! It made my night. Have fun at Prom. @beautatochips #soproud

Happy Birthday @maddie.mayo!! It is so hard to believe that you are 19 years old today. How lucky am I to have such an independent, talented, strong willed, and beautiful sister! You mean the world to me and I am looking forward to another year of adventure! "There is so much life to be lived in the in between."

Had an amazing weekend in the city. So blessed to be able to laugh with friends, meet new wonderful people, and enjoy the great vibe of San Francisco. The food and drinks don't disappoint either! @m_chaffin05 Thanks for the invite!!

Happy International Women's Day. Whatever else I may accomplish in this life, encouraging the strength, education, and passion of young girls is at the top of the priority list. May we all learn to be fierce. #internationalwomensday #educategirls #hopeforthefuture

Hayden: Mom, is deodorant just for your armpits? Me: Yes, that is where it goes. Why? Hayden: Oh, sometimes I put it on my chest because I sweat there a lot too. Me (in my head, chuckling): I love this stage of motherhood. #Hayden2017 #B&GClubBasketball

This is my brother, Allen, 82nd Airborne, Ranger. He has dedicated the past 7 years to defending the United States Constitution, our liberties, and our security. Two tours in Afghanistan, countless days and months away from his beautiful Wife, and living far from family are just a few of his sacrifices. Thank you doesn't even begin to express my gratitude. So proud to be the sister of a veteran. #Veteransday2016 #armyranger #proudtobeamerican #proudsister

Voted with my best friend @jleeeastman, couldn't have ended this journey any better. Have to say the best thing about this election is the countless hours of discussion and debate that we have had over group text, dinners and (of course) beers. At least we had to "think" and participate. At times I was enraged, disgusted, and shocked but I was engaged in the process. Thanks to @brendam55 @maddie.mayo for your considered thoughts also! #election2016 #ivoted #govote #proudtobeamerican

Had to create a "Plan B" for our Friday night when Maddie learned the concert tickets we bought weeks ago were for 21 and over only. Instead we had Italian dinner and danced the night away at Cargo to Con Brio and The Main Squeeze. #offbeatartsandmusicfestival #sisterlove❤️ (at La Strada at El Dorado Hotel; Reno)
