Coffee run
Coffee run

We're halfway through February... so close to spring, and yet so far away it feels like! I really do love winter, but I definitely start to crave spring this time of year. The groundhog has officially called six more weeks of winter, and I'm loading up on all the warm coffee, cozy blankets on the sofa, and chunky cardigans. I'm trying to just enjoy this season of life right now though. Spring will be here before we know it, and now is the time to enjoy these quiet, cold nights, get to the gym as much as possible, and cook all of the hearty (and healthy) meals.

Ai Weiwei at Meijer Gardens: Natural State
Ai Weiwei at Meijer Gardens: Natural State

Last weekend, Eric and I had the chance to check out the Ai Weiwei exhibit at Frederik Meijer Gardens. Natural State is his first show in the upper Midwest, as well as the first of its kind for him at a botanical garden or sculpture park, so we were really excited to check this exhibit out in our own city. If you're nearby anytime between now and August 20th, I'd definitely recommend it. Ai Weiwei is one of the most influential artists and activists of our time, and this body of work is so beautifully unique. We loved having the opportunity to see it!

Gray skies

So since our teaser of spring last Saturday, we've been stuck with gray, foggy, depressing weather ever since. I'm not the biggest fan, to say the least. But, as I always do this time of year, I'm trying to stay positive and use this time to get ahead with my goals. Plus, I always sort of miss this time of year when it goes away, because I really do like the slowness of winter, the dark nights where you can cuddle up on the sofa and watch all of your favorite TV shows, and cook a big pot of soul-warming chili. I always just struggle with being in the moment. So I just need to remind myself... time goes so quickly, enjoy the month you're in, and take advantage of the good things it has to offer!

Taste of spring

Happy Monday! So this weekend was a total whirlwind, but on Saturday, we hit 58º in Michigan... in January! So crazy. To be honest, I loved it during the moment... but now as I'm sitting here at my desk on this terribly dreary day, I almost wish we didn't get a taste of it... because now all I want is spring. And we're still in January. It's going to be a long winter, guys. Thank goodness the groundhog comes out next week, because I really hope he says an early spring is ahead!

Alleyway stripes

Hi friends! Long time, no see. I haven't been intentionally taking a break from the blog, but it just sort of happened that way. First, I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for your amazing support on my last post about my resolutions. I received so many amazing comments, emails, and texts from strangers and friends. It blew me away. I honestly had no idea so many people struggle with anxiety and headaches. It can feel like such a lonely thing, but it's so reassuring to know I'm not alone in this process! So thank you. Second, I'm here! I'm blogging! Woo! January is always tough for the blog, but I'm going to try to continue posting throughout the month. But, I also decided I'm not going to obsess over it or stress on the days when we can't snap photos. If anything, you miss a few jeans and striped tees looks (since that's all I wear lately anyway) but I will continue to be here as often as I can!

Lake Michigan Christmas

Hi friends! Did you have a good Christmas and New Year's Eve? I took a little time off from the blog to relax and spend time with family and friends. I was still working at my full-time job all week, but it was nice to have the evenings to watch Christmas movies at home and go out to dinner a few times! Now that it's January though, I'm ready to get back into a groove. I'm a firm believer in new year's resolutions. To me, it's the perfect time of year to reset and start over again.
