What's Happening

We spent this past week out in Colorado! We love being out in the mountains. They have had a really hot summer but this week they had a lot of rain.

It didn't really bother us. We were enjoying the cooler temperatures while just enjoying the mountains. Normally, we would spend the week hiking, but I injured my back a few weeks ago and couldn't hike yet.

We needed the downtime and the rest. Between Walt, our new rescue dog, waking us up early in the mornings (think 4 a.m.), and construction starting on Tuesday, our stress levels have been higher than normal.

The food was amazing, Oktoberfest started, and the markets were amazing. We won't be back for a whole year, and I know that I will miss it.

The kids are coming for dinner tomorrow night, and I will have all of my Jax snuggles! He's their dog, and he's a total love!

A clear, shallow river flows through a forest of tall evergreen trees, with green hills and a partly cloudy blue sky in the background—a tranquil scene perfect for enjoying The Sunday Thymes along the lush, rock-lined riverbank.
  • I tried using a sling for my feet on the airplane and loved being able to be comfortable! Being short, I can't reach the ground easily. This sling was the best!
  • We love the smell of the forest and being in Colorado brings it all home. My kids are addicted to this candle because it reminds them of the mountains.
  • I took this decluttering to heart before we left Chicago on this trip!
  • We are getting ready to host family for the fall holidays and this article was interesting on what not to do when hosting!
  • Chef's favorite products from Costco!
