The Story of Us

Image
I figured since the month of February is all about love and Valentine's Day, it'd be fun to tell my love story to all of you guys. My husband Shawn and I have a little bit of a crazy story and I'm excited to share it with all of you! Shawn was born and raised in St. George, Utah, a small town about two hours north of Las Vegas. I was born and raised in Spokane, Washington.  If anyone knows my family, they probably thought my parents would never leave Spokane; they grew up there.

It's a new year and I couldn't be more excited to crush some goals and make 2019 my best year yet! Here's what's new and exciting! What we're eating this week : So I'm sure y'all know, but I freaking love Trader Joe's...really I'm obsessed! I got some of their tamales to try this week and I'll let you know how they are. We're also having one of our favorites, Mediterranean Meatballs with grilled peppers and diced potatoes! And of course, Snickers Rice Crispy Treats for my man. What I'm reminiscing about : My grandpa passed away unexpectedly 17 years ago this month and I still miss him every day. We were really close and spent a lot of time together. The more time that goes by, the harder it is to remember him. Thank goodness for family stories and photos to help keep his memory alive! I rec...
