I’m feeling a little uninspired in my writing lately.
I have started to look back at some old posts for inspiration.
Here one of my favorites from 2 years ago…

“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
– Ferris Bueller
Life is good.
It’s easy to forget that when you are frustrated about migraines, 3-1/2 year olds who don’t go to sleep at bedtime, stomach cramps, teething toddlers, messy houses, death, arguments, and all the other normal stuff that happens in life.
It’s all good.
What makes it tough is if we don’t stop to appreciate all of it. The good, the bad, and the ugly.
I don’t know who is in charge, but “they” have a plan for all of us. We’re just along for the ride.
Speaking of ride, lola and I went for a drive this morning after we dropped the little guy off at school. When I don’t feel like tackling the to do list I often just go for a drive.
This morning the sun was peaking through the clouds, and I thought we would get out and enjoy it before raindrops start falling again.
We drove down to The Allison. One of my favorite places to take the kids for a little bit of an adventure. We walk around the beautiful grounds and soak up a little bit of what the Willamette Valley has to offer. It’s a little different every season.
Here is what we found today…

This is a great reminder for me about what really are (or perhaps shoul be) the priority. I love you.
Wise mom, grownup daughter! Where and what is the Allison? Looks like a building and a park… have I been there?
The Allison is a spa and luxury hotel in wine country.
Very cute! Fire hydrant shot’s a keeper.
