Welcome to the blog

Roman Rulon Ditto was born Wednesday April 2nd at 10:36pm! Our little boy was anxious to join us, and completely blew me away with surprise with his early arrival! I had always guessed he’d come a little early, but his birth date definitely didn’t start out with me thinking that by the end of the […]

Maybe it’s a bad mom move to begin my baby’s life with jokes about his name; and maybe it’s another bad mom move for my two only children (both boys) to share the exact same due date? Or it’s simply a mastermind move! Either way, Rome definitely wasn’t built in a day! It also wasn’t […]

And cue Soledad y el Mar by Natalia Lafourcade por favor! Europe is one of those places that, for me, just gives and gives. Gives inspiration, gives adventure, romance, effortlessness… it remains magical time and time again. I’ve decided that every two years I need to find my way back to it, and much like […]

“Paris? All this time I’ve been underneath Paris?” – Remy, Ratatouille. Beautiful and nostalgic words from a rat. So many beautiful moments happened this week. I felt organized, strong, happy, and grateful. We started the week off Sunday with a relaxing day, and moved straight into Monday! I met with Céline and we planned a […]

A whirlwind in Paris! If one could fit the best parts of Paris into one week, it would be the exact recreation of this week with my parents. We walked, laughed, rode metros, saw sights, played pétanque and ate the most amazing food.  Because we did so much, here’s an abbreviated itinerary of the week’s […]

A week of rest, creation, and as always, inspiration. This week I slipped quietly into my menstrual phase. I got in a long 4 good days of full rest, and along the way I decided I wanted to learn how to make Pasta…so that’s what I did!  I watched some YouTube videos, got some flour […]

The last day spent in Rennes was my favorite. We went to church there Sunday and I got to see all my friends I met four years ago and have since missed!! Walking into that building was yet another moment of nostalgia as I saw familiar faces, reconnected and chatted with them. I was sure […]

Allergy season is in full motion here! I’ve spent a good portion of this week being in nature which has brought on the worst runny nose, but it was so worth it! We were able to visit a really special place, enjoy lots of good food, and capture lots of images. Give me all the […]

This week was one filled with friends, good food, inspiring art and quiet moments where life seemed just a little surreal. Bare with me on this little week’s version of thoughts, photos and recaps, because there’s simply a lot I want to never forget. Inspiration from the Louvre Walking around the Louvre this week was […]

Personal Well, we’ve landed in Paris, and in the 4 short days we’ve successfully un-successfully followed a sleeping routine. Haha! We left Utah Wednesday at 2pm, and landing in Paris Thursday… thrown straight into 8am! Since then, we’ve had a pretty impressive record of waking up each day around 1/2pm… we wake up late, stay […]
