I asked my son, Ryan, for help moving my grandparents’ pie safe from the garage inside to my dining room. I recently brought it home from my parents house. ❤️ #TWEhowl #TWEmm

We had some a pretty serious conversations at dinner tonight with the boys. Crazy times right now with so many unknowns. 😕 #TWEHowl #TWEmm

Forgot to post last night, but I LOVED getting to see my work family for Kimberly Roberts birthday! I SO needed to see these ladies! We missed you, Karen Williamson! Tiffany Gwin Candra Maly M. Ed Christy Huse Lauren White @AdamsRomayne @AArtley98 #TWEmm

This weekend I got to see my in-laws, had a small goal to learn to use my Mom’s sewing machine, and I made a mask! I talked to a good friend from back home for over an hour and to top it off, I got to talk to my aunt in person from her front yard! #TWEHowl #TWEmm

So grateful to be a part of a wonderful work family (@MrsFaubs) that ‘checks in’ with me - even if it was only for an ice cream order! I also got an unexpected nap in yesterday, too! It was niiiice!! #TWEHowl #TWEmm

Love my shirts I ordered from Kacher Creations! Thank you so much! I will be lookin’ good this school year! Tom Wilson Elementary

I treated myself to a REAL pedicure this weekend, which I hadn’t had in almost 5 months due to the quarantine! I forgot how much I missed it! #TWEHowl #TWEmm

How adorable is this? Thanks @MrsFaubs for sharing!

Disconnected from technology most of the day today while enjoying the cool breezes and the sound of the falling rain while enjoying the new patio furniture. This is my kind of day! Tom Wilson Elementary #TWEmm

Enjoyed a walk yesterday and got some exercise in today! Almost complete! #TWEHowl #TWEmm

Wrote a thank you note to a sweet young lady and enjoyed reading my new book to read to the kids this year! Can’t wait to start my own Kindness Snippet Jar! #TWEHowl #TWEmm

Finishing up my challenge with the hardest part...I guess what I love about myself is my personality! I’m funny, kind, giving, serious, and empathetic. (I feel like I’m describing my Dad ❤️!) #TWEHowl #TWEmm
