A Christmas Tribute

With all the talk of tributes these days (“I volunteer as tribute!”, “The Force Awakens: A Tribute to Star Wars”, etc.), I felt the need to add a special tribute to the lineup this Christmas. It does not come as a surprise, then, that, given the combination of tribute chatter and a traditionally loving holiday spirit, my tribute is in dedication to the people I love the most: my family. I’ve…

On the Topic of Sleep

On the Topic of Sleep

I never understood why I choose to go to bed so late. Granted, I am a college student and an early bedtime is not really an option for the majority of us crazy college kids, but still, that doesn’t mean that a 2 am bedtime routine is in any way normal. Why do I stay up until the wee hours of the morning, working on projects that aren’t due for weeks or talking to friends I’ve been talking to all…

Choose Your Own Family Adventure Series

This past week I had the privilege of traveling with my parents to visit my sister and her husband at their home in Spokane, Washington. If any of you have been keeping up with my blog or Instagram as of late, you may have seen evidence of this vacation in my various posts and updates. Over the course of the week, my family embarked on a number of incredible and diverting adventures, most of…

Choose Your Own Family Adventure Day 6: the family that adventures together every day for a week is closer than ever and unwilling to leave (though complete exhaustion and oncoming colds make home sound pretty nice). #ChooseYourOwnAdventure #lastday #SushiOnAConveyerBelt #BowlAndPitcherPark #makinmywaydowntown #SteveIsForReal (at Bowl and Pitcher Park)

Choose Your Own Family Adventure Day 5: the family that survives the dizzying heights of the hike around Palouse Falls is in danger of being fearless (or stupid, as the case may be). #sohighup #ChooseYourOwnAdventure #hikers #middleofnowhere #wemissedyouDan (at Palouse Falls, Washington)

Choose Your Own Family Adventure Day 4: the family that spends the Sabbath together, rests. And to quote the Creator, after a day of homemade crepes, disc golf, ENOs, and sundaes, it was good. #ENO #discgolf #makeyourownsundae #sundaesunday #MySistersACrepeMaster #somucheatery #ChooseYourOwnAdventure (at Beacon Hill Spokane)
