Summer is here and its HOT! This summer has been a blast so far and I can’t wait to share everything we did in July with you all too! Camping Hiking and lots of fun things have been keeping us super busy. Thank goodness too because we were starting to go a little crazy after so long time of not really doing a whole lot. Lots of good food, good friends and good times we have had so far!

Ah the month of April is more like false spring in Colorado because one day its 80 outside and the very next its below freezing and you are scraping ice and snow off your car. The good thing though is that it doesn’t last long and melts pretty quick but its so rude when you can wear a cute dress one day and they next have to put on your coats and rain boots. RUDE!

Oh happy May! This month we did a ton of mountain biking. It was also Corbins birthday month and mothers day but sadly we didn’t end up doing anything for either. Once the warm weather hits we are always trying to go on some new adventure. Yes, we do that during the winter too but the last few years we tend to hibernate more in the colder months. Or maybe we are just becoming wimps who knows?! We have some wonderful trips coming up this summer and I am excited for all the fun things we have planned! That also means shopping for cute clothes for trips, am I right or am I right!?

The month of February flew by in a whirlwind and I am glad that it is over. I lost my grandma and it was and still is a lot to handle. I know that my heart will take a long time to heal from grief and sadness but I have my family and that helps me so much! I am very thankful that we were able to hold a service for her as I know so many people during this crazy year have not been able to have any sort of closure whatsoever. I feel fortunate enough to have had the small gathering that we did. It brought some of my family together who I haven’t seen in 15 years! We were able to celebrate her life and be at peace laying her to rest.

The month of January is just Eh. I am not a huge fan. It’s like everyone tries to reinvent themselves or start fresh. But what is wrong with any day or any time? Why do people wait until a new year to start something new or start exercising or start eating better when you have a whole year you could be doing that? It’s a waste of time if you ask me. I’m a firm believer of just being YOU 100% of the time no matter what day or month it is and forget all the new year new you crap. How about just BE YOU! okay enough of my personal trainer brain ranting on and on.

As the year 2020 came to and end and we embark on a whole new year, we must all try to find the little things that bring us joy in life. One of those things for me is shopping! OOPS Corbin you didn’t read that 🙂 With 2020 being such a boring year, I made it my goal to try and have more fun this year even if things are still shut down and restricted. I am bound and determined to do more activities than last year because we didn’t do a whole lot and we are so used to going and doing so much that it was really a bummer. We just aren’t used to sitting and veggin’ out on the tv and it was so hard to do nothing. We love to go and explore new places to eat and to see and do ALL the things. I plan on crafting/stitching more, filming more workouts, shopping more (of course), and biking and camping more.

Ah its Holiday Season, and the winter weather is here. I am not too happy about the cold weather but I do love the holidays and everything about them. This year I feel like the holidays are going to feel a little more precious. We are so thankful and grateful for all the many blessings that are in our lives. We are also so fortunate to be able to celebrate with our loved ones.

Even though its going to be freezing until like May next year, miss Lulu has been loving this cold weather and really enjoying our freezing walks in the snow. The Hubby and I have been enjoying cozy evenings in by the beautiful Christmas tree with a nice hot cup of tea. The month of November was a nice way to ease into winter with a few beautiful days in the 60s. I wish I was one of those snowbirds that comes to CO in the Summer and leaves during the winter. I just don’t handle the cold like I used to and typically end up with hand warmers and wool socks on every single day. I used to be the type to snowboard every weekend which, don’t get me wrong I still love to do that but man I’ve turned into a big ol whimp when I get cold.
