Spring is here! I had the best time using a #My5Days to take photos of all the blooms. I’m hoping to do some lettering over one of the photos soon!
Happy Easter
Happy Easter, friends! I don’t think anyone could have imagined that this Easter would have to be celebrated virtually. I’m looking forward to watching church and a zoom call with my family. Hope you all are able to find ways to celebrate, too!

March Around The Web
Hello, everyone! I hope you are well, what a strange and sad month March turned out to be! We were lucky to safely make it back from Costa Rica and shortly after that Kansas City went into social distancing full swing. I don’t know what April will bring but I do know that I’m thinking of everyone affected by Covid-19, especially New York City. And as a wife of a doctor I’m really proud of all the amazing health care workers. I especially loved seeing rainbows in Brooklyn as shared by Joanna of Cup of Jo – the three story rainbow window display by Linsey Laidlaw and her kids takes the cake!
Not only is Hallmark giving away 2 million cards to help us all stay connected, but you can download free coloring pages over on Think.Make.Share.!
Being home so much I’m in the mood to DIY! Not sure I have all the materials but I would love to make my own scrunchies.
Another quarantine activity on my list: a flower drawing challenge!
I’m also hoping to start reading more. Loved this book roundup and Carly’s friends’ favorite picks!
If you are feeling up to some Spring cleaning this is a great list (only if you are like me and cleaning usually helps me relax!)
You know I adore pasta, so therefore this guide
One thing I’m really missing is visiting Family Tree Nursery with friends. Might have to start propagating my plants, which might require these beautiful vessels!
And if I get really bored I might get around to cleaning my brass.
Pura Vida, Friends
Exploring the Costa Rican Rainforest!
Hello, friends! Our last few days were spent exploring the rainforest on a zip line tour with Titi Canopy and hiking hrough Rainmaker Park. Both were wonderful but definitely not for the faint of heart! I’m also sharing the amazing GoPro video my sister Grace made recapping our entire trip!
Being among the huge trees in the rainforest was amazing and while I Ioved all the wildlife we did have one scary snake encounter on our hike! If you visit Quepos and enjoy hiking I wouldn’t let that deter you, just make sure you are looking where you are walking on the paths. I also really enjoyed our zipline tour! It’s been a few years since I was on a zipline, but traveling over the tops of the trees was pretty magical. Hopefully this won’t be my last trip to Costa Rica! I’m definitely missing the warm sunshine back at home during these tough times. I know I will be even more grateful for opportunities to travel in the future!
