Did you know I even smile in the rain!? You are probably wondering, but why!? Easy, no rain no flowers. Like most of us I’ve had my fair share of seasons with rain, torrential downpours, tropical storms, intermittent showers annnnnnnd I bloom brighter than ever on the other side. If you ever see me and my clear umbrella out and about on a jaunt (which is often), chances are I’m looking for rainbows ❤️ I received a text message the other night from a text app, from an anonymous gal pal asking “do you really have such a high opinion of yourself?” Unapologetically, YES! 1000% …the same gal pal said this would make a great “this post is having a moment” along with some colorful language. Honestly, I hope it does to remind everyone to think extremely highly of themselves, because it is contagious and what you KNOW about yourself will outlast anything anyone says ❤️ to person who sent the message, I still love you! I am grateFULL for your message, so you could experience my kindness. Love y’all, mean it!

I made a promise to myself that this would be my YES Year! I’ve leaned into the opportunities that were right for me, ran through every door intentionally opened to me and did the MOST! This YES Year immediately turned into a YAY Year!

Dear Gal Pal❤️
It is that time of year again, and this reminder is right on time! Wear the bathing suit. Get your hair wet. Jump off the diving board. Join the cannon ball contest. Make the memories.

Your circle and littles (regardless to their age) will never remember the size of your bathing suit or the number on the scale. However, they will remember you were present in the moment, the confidence you possessed and the body positivity you demonstrated. Love yourself, out loud!

My BEST girl is a D1 college cheerleader ❤️ took a year off annnnnnnnnd came back in a mighty BIG way 🙌 SHE did it! SHE earned it! SHE did the work! ALL ON HER OWN!!!!! Zerooooooooooo help from her mama, any coach, or high school program….YOU DID IT BABY! Blown away by the grit that would not allow you to quit, alllllllllll the tenacity, the drive to overcome every obstacle and your commitment to grow every single day in a BIG bold way! You got this and so sooo sooooooooo much more! Love you ohhhhhhhh soooooooo much angel girl!

To just say I’m proud of her would be an understatement, as we treat every day, her way! She reminds everyone daily to never forget to overthink the good stuff! Can’t wait to show up with all the fam, gal pals, and honorary aunties with cowbells and giant signs to cheer her on!!

One day soon we will share our story, togetHER ❤️ this kid is the driver, and this mama is the passenger on this ahhhhh-mazing, and wild ride! Love our mama-daughter duo antics 😏 on grad pics, more on her session soon, as the memory making moment is just way too good to not share!

Oh you know just my 7th year in this entrepreneurial life, and even in this season ✨ I am still imagining the best case scenario✨ As always, I am showing up with super full hands, and an even FULLER heart 💕 Stay tuned for our next pop-up, no clue when or where yet, however SUNday breathed new life into parts of me that I was certain were gone for good.

Some days I’ve got it all together and well others I’m holding it together with a tiny piece of duct tape. Either way, I am unapologetically showing ALL THE WAY UP full of smiles, good vibes and plenty of humility❤️ To just say I’m grateFULL to those who showed up early, gave us BIG happy hugs, filled us in on all that we missed, reminded us we are so loved, shopped with Luxe, picked up right where we left off and helped us pack the truck up would be a huge understatement😭 seriously love yall, mean it!

Per usual I walked into the pop-up with 5 packs of hangers, paper towels, windex, 2 coffees, keys and my purse, because in true mama fashion I’m only making one trip from the truck 😂
