merry december, ya filthy animals

just realized that november is over. i have NO idea where the heck it went. not even that mad though cause CHRISTMAS TIME IS HERE!! hopefully now everyone will stop making fun of the fact that i’ve been listening to christmas music since october. probably not. ANYWAYS, i’ve spent the day avoiding homework and instead doing some (online) christmas shopping. already crossed five people off my list…

halloween 2018

no cellphones in the diner!! i’m the biggest gilmore girls fan around, so i decided to be luke danes for halloween this year. this was the easiest costume i’ve ever done, and the most comfortable — plus, this is pretty close to what i wear on a regular basis, just minus the backawards hat. all i really had to do was order this shirt off amazon. 10/10 recommend this costume.

saturdays are for the jeeps

saturdays are for the jeeps

saturday we went on a jeep ride and it was probably the prettiest one i’ve been on. all the trees were bright shades of fall and the weather was perfect. the trails we hit were dishpan springs and holcomb creek.  10/10 recommend. that is, if you have a jeep  and know what you’re doing of course. 😉

stop and smell the fall

stop and smell the fall

i am so happy that even though i live in orange county, i still get to experience some autumn colors. —this tree showers my jeep with fall each morning and it’s the most beautiful start to my day. i really thrive in this season and i’ve been a bit discouraged that i’m not up in my beloved mountains soaking in all the cold air and foggy mornings. but the Lord knew this and has been showing me…

sunday scriptures

“like a seed in the snow, i’ve been buried to grow. for Your promise is loyal, from seed to sequoia” if you have not heard this song, stop what you’re doing and go listen to it. my sweet friend nicole shared it with me a couple days ago and it has been my anthem ever since. i’ve found myself in such a season of waiting lately, but the song says “if all iknow of harvest is that it’s worth my…

autumn playlist

i spent the weekend creating an autumn playlist, and i must say i’m really proud of it. i actually laid outside listening to it and fell asleep! i have NEVER been able to nap, ever. but it was glorious. the songs make me want to curl up by the fire while rain falls outside my window. i love fall weather so much it almost hurts, i’m so bummed it takes so long to show it’s face around these parts.…

the wellness path

i’ve started and stopped this post a few times. not because i don’t want to share, it’s more that i still don’t feel educated entirely in what i want to talk about. then i realized that no person is 100% in tune with health/wellness + healing their bodies. it’s a constant learning process and there are always new discoveries and ways to improve your health. the second thing i realized is that…
