Trying to stay hydrated and calm while getting eve

Trying to stay hydrated and calm while getting everything done before packing and traveling for Christmas…which is stressful to think about😅but we don’t have any control over air traffic patterns or the weather sooo🤷🏻‍♀️Wrapping presents to bring to my fam before we go and watching the pups play which always puts a smile on my face! Hope you are staying sane and enjoying the small moments between the madness🎄❤️

Our Christmas tree this year…🎄We usually opt for something a bit larger and real but with our travel plans this year it just isn’t happening. {The wreath up on the wall is real tho and smells amazing!} I added some wood garland, twinkle lights and fun ornaments🌵🌈🥑to dress it up a bit. I was looking for a tree topper and found this angel I made when I was little…swipe for a better look🥴🤣it works tho right?! Merry merry❣️

These photos were taken with a tripod before heading to Thanksgiving dinner at my aunt and uncles {you can see my hand pressing the button to take the pics😆} We were hoping to be on the way to growing our family by this holiday season but it’s not in the cards for us once again so I am forcing myself to make the best of it, create some memories (aka these photos) and live in the moment. We have had to work through a lot of hard times and communicate a whoooole lot but I’m so proud of how we always come out on the other side and are stronger for it. Grief and loss are freaking hard but I’m so lucky to have such an amazing husband to get through it with❤️‍🩹 I share for anyone who is struggling for whatever reason through the holidays and are only seeing all the shiny, happy times on their feed, it’s just a highlight reel! Sadness and happiness can and do coexist ❌⭕️

Tis the season to gather with friends and family🧡 I am sharing a super easy, delicious, and healthy recipe to bring to Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving this year (check my stories)--butternut squash with pomegranate seeds and goat cheese! #ad I got the butternut squash precut so all you have to do is roast it, and then put everything in a bowl! I purchased everything I needed on @amazon and it was all delivered right to my door, which made it so easy! #baltimore SNAP recipients can enjoy time-saving benefits with free and convenient home delivery available on qualifying orders!

I took a break from running the other week when I was having a really hard time...it got cold and I was so unmotivated. It took everything I had just to get through the day. Between it getting dark early and life stuff I was struggling so I listened to my body and took a step back. Slowly I started to feel better so we’ve been running a lot this week and it makes me so happy. It’s Clarks favorite activity and it’s been one of the things that has gotten me through the past few years. I was just thinking about it on tonight’s run and so I thought I would share, finding a way to channel my emotions in a positive way has been truly life changing. (I’ve never been the fastest runner but here we are🏃‍♀️) Going to take advantage as much as possible while the weather is still nice even if we have to go super earlier bc it’s dark by 5:30🤪
This top is on sale and the perfect running/ layering top for colder weather. The link is in my bio!

A flight for him and a cocktail for me…I’ve never been a beer girl🤷🏻‍♀️ Missing Maine and alllll the delicious seafood and drinks that were consumed.
Just saw this corduroy shaket is restocked in a few sizes and on sale! Linked in my bio.

Last stop of our trip… When we take a road trip

Last stop of our trip…
When we take a road trip I like to make stops on the way there and on the way home—the benefit of traveling by car! We did an amazing hike in NH before our destination. On the way home from Maine we stopped in Boston. It helps to break up the trip, get lunch, stretch out legs and explore a new place a little bit. And oh my gosh it was the most beautiful 65 degree☀️day. We didn’t stay as long as I would have liked but now that I got to experience a little bit of what the city has to offer I will 100% be back! Sad the trip is over but the wanderlust continues✨
