A colorful running adventure
Not long ago, if I told you I was doing a color run, you wouldn’t believe me. I wouldn’t even let the kids use finger paint when they were younger and I go out of my way to avoid face painting. Why? Because of the clean up. I never want to deal with the clean…
Read More +Don't worry about my kids while I travel
I’m a little more than two and a half years into a job that is based in Washington, DC. We didn’t have to move there because I’m a teleworker. But that means I need to travel. These days, that means I travel at least once a month. I just wrapped up three straight weeks home…
Read More +Summer plans change for a special experience
Every year since Jordan was three and a half, we’ve traveled to the eastern side of Missouri to take part in Camp No Limits Missouri.

Waking up early isn’t my favorite thing to do in the world. But I try to do it at least once every time I visit somewhere away from home. Why? Because I’ve found running in the morning at sunrise gives you a peek into a different location in a way you can’t see at any…

Our trip to DC had so many cool moments but one of the most memorable was a chance to spend time in the West Wing of the White House. My good friend Sara not only travels to our home in Missouri to help me clean the house, she also introduced us to one of the…
Read More +What it’s Really Like Going Grey
Last month, I had a really fancy opportunity to help shoot a video about letting your hair go grey. I’ve battled it for years and I reached that point where the hair in front of my face was just too platinum to fight anymore. But I wasn’t sure what to do. Luckily I work for…

Read More +Jordan (and her family) goes to DC
If your mom works in Washington, DC, you’d think you would have a chance to visit all the time. But if you live in the middle of the country, it might take two and a half years! But when you have two and a half years to plan out five days, you know it’s going…
