On Saturday we did our very first YES DAY as a family to celebrate Rhett's preschool graduation + the end of preschool days for our family (cue all the emotions!!!) -- The day ended up being SO fun from start to finish!! I shared all about it on the blog (how we planned it, our Yes Day rules/parameters, etc.) in case you'd like to check it out!!

Have you guys heard of a “Yes Day” for kids? A Yes Day is a day when parents/grownups agree to say “yes” to any kid requests (within reason, of course). Our kids naturally thought this concept was the coolest — our oldest requested a Yes Day a while back after a friend came to school... R...

Our Yes Day from start to finish!!! We loved every second of this day and feel like we are still on a high from all the fun! We did take some time to plan everything out the night before and set some ground rules I think were really helpful — I shared everything in detail on my blog today if you’d like to check it out! Just comment “YES DAY” below and I’ll send you everything!

Today is my birthday and I was talking to Ryan earlier about some of my best memories from last year. One “grief and joy can coexist moment” popped out at me. After our dog died very suddenly, we did almost 2 weeks of family sleepovers with the boys. They slept on our camping mats in our bedroom and we just got through it together. These sleepovers ended up being etched into my heart forever because they led to so many sweet, silly and tender moments. So we did one again last night and we’ll do it again tonight to sandwich my 41st birthday in sleepovers. ❤️ Life isn’t perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but family sleepovers make it pretty darn close.

Easter weekend in Sarasota! 💚🩵🩷💛 We filled our days with sunshine and family time — plus visits to Casperson Beach (where we found lots of shark teeth!), (best soft pretzel of my lifeee), Crescent Beach (where the boys swam in the ocean and found some crazy-cool conch shells), the new aquarium (beautiful and a huge hit with our whole family), Urfer Park for an early-morning bunny + tortoise walk and Payne Park to play on the circus-themed playground ☀️🫶🏻 Not a bad way to kick off spring break!!

Not sure who I think I am cramming a wedding in Northern Michigan and less than 15 hrs in Vegas for the final Backstreet Boys concert in the Sphere into one weekend but I channeled my inner 22yo and had a freaking blast! Celebrating love (so happy for Ashley + Sean!), seeing some of my best friends of 20+ years, dancing my face off, laughing until my stomach hurt and living out my millennial dreams in Vegas = One heck of a weekend 🤗 Now flying home to hug the boys and face plant in bed the second they’re all tucked in for the night
