    Breathe and Bloom Essentials

    • Yesterday i randomly watched the first episode of Fuller House while i packed up our suitcases to head back to California. You know the episode—the one where the gangs all back together, only now they’re 20 years older. The magic is still there and all the inside jokes and nostalgic references fill your heart with complete joy. I literally cried real tears SEVERAL times during the episode... That’s right, i cried in a cheesy sitcom... during an episode I’ve seen at least a dozen times 😳 I suppose it’s because i grew up on this show, with these characters. And in many ways, each episode represented what i loved most and what i longed for in my own family. The chaos, the unconditional love, the encouragement, but mostly a house filled with SO many people...and not ONE, but three dads available without fail for each of their girls. Or maybe i cried because i was packing our bags and leaving our own “full house” of chaos and unconditional love—my children adore their cousins and grandparents to infinity and beyond. Or perhaps i cried because I did it. I created what i longed for in my own family and I’ve not taken for granted what i love oh-so-much about the family who raised me. We are a beautifully broken bunch and we (in all of our imperfections) belong to each other. #familiesareforever #fullerhouse #fullhouse
    • The Wyoming adventures continue with a jaunt through downtown Cheyenne to sneak in a few more senior pictures for my niece. Historic downtowns have a certain magic about them, don’t they? #stockslovewyoming
    • Top notch childhood memories have been made on this trip. I’ve glanced across the room and locked eyes with Ben in several moments of shared gratitude and peace. These are the moments we never take for granted, these are the moments we pray for—fishing until sun down, soccer with cousins in the backyard, hide and seek, farm trips and hay bales, homemade bread and cinnamon toast, family prayer and temple visits, grandma and grandpa and cousins who play as hard as they love. #stockslovewyoming
    • Wyoming holds so many special memories for the beginning of “us”. Visiting Ben’s roots always feels a bit like coming home for me and i learn more about his kind heart and strong will with each trip. #stockslovewyoming
    • My nightstand used to be littered with books i had grand intentions of reading, an empty cup, chapstick, hand lotion, surely some empty wrappers, a jewelry dish and tangled charger cords. And while all of these items were conveniently within arms reach when i needed them, i woke up one day and realized the cluttered energy wasn’t doing me any favors. So i cleared it all off. I organized my top drawer to conceal the items i needed close by and i filled the surface only with items that give me a sense of peace (diffuser, salt lamp, plant, my bedtime oils). Guys, this was a GAME CHANGER for me! It transformed the entire vibe of my room. I sleep better, i actually enjoy being in my room and i feel like i have a retreat—some actual personal space in a home filled with other people’s stuff and needs. Try it this week and report back—you won’t regret it! More tips on inviting peace into our homes and hearts over on @breatheandbloomessentials

    • It’s so easy to say “alright, pack it up—we’re going home” when the outing starts to take a turn for the worst. But today, i endured. I’m getting better at the part of parenthood where you have to be okay with things NEVER going the way you imagine they will in your head. Today wasn’t perfect, but i made a conscious effort to push through any disappointment with hope...hope that we would gather enough blessed moments to bottle up as our memory of this summer sabbath day. Today hope prevailed 🙏 #sandyandsalty #alsosawyerdresseshimself 🙄 #happysabbath #lds
    • Sawyer begs to go fishing every single day. It’s his latest obsession. Between watching “Chasing Monsters” on repeat on Netflix and googling “how to remove bones from a Calico Perch”, I’d say we have a future fisherman on our hands. Nothing will fill your heart faster than watching this kids excitement when he reels in a catch, even when it’s the tiniest fish you’ve ever seen. One of my favorite parts of motherhood is watching my kiddos be proud of themselves. #sawyerblakey #age6
