Did you know you can sponsor an acre in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park? 🌿 This is a portion of the acre at the Beaver Marsh (one of my most favorites) that I sponsor as a gift to my parents each year 💝 Sponsoring an acre in your favorite spot (or giving the gift of a sponsored acre) helps the @forcvnp preserve, protect, and enhance Ohio’s national park for future generations🌲🌞 #cvnp #gotakeagike #sponsoranacre (at Beaver Marsh) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br58ERKgdpC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mh4q6hc0toj7

Whew 2018 was a whirlwind of a year ✨🌙 As the great wheel turns and we wrap up the holiday season, remember to reflect, renew, and remind yourself that this is a time of transition. Progress is not linear, celebrate each achievement and consider any setback as an opportunity to learn and grow. Look forward, set intentions, make goals, resolve to get out of your comfort zone. Find friends and family that will hold you accountable and support your journey ❤️ #newyear Celebrating with a #tbt to the day we got hitched this past October. Kevin and I decided to tie the knot around this time last year and thought a Halloween wedding would be a wonderful way to honor our 13th anniversary #lucky13 #perfectday 🦇🖤🦇 As my daughter celebrated her 22nd birthday this past year, we lightheartedly joked about the fact that she was now the age I was when she was born (AND the age my mom was when I was born) Welp, see those two beautiful people beside me? They’re making us grandparents in the new year with the grandest of grands. So to say we’re ecstatic would be an understatement. I’m over the entire moon and stars anxiously awaiting the arrival of this baby ♓️💟☪️ #omgimgonnabeagrandma 📷 @jennkidd_ (at Akron Civic Theatre) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br5MoK9gXIG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mw4rlxv8ps0p

Our tiny crew of geriatric chihuahuas would like to wish you the happiest of holidays ❄️ (l-r) Mr. Peanut Butter Cup / Gizmo aka Giz the Wiz aka TrismeGiz / Bruno Ernesto aka Noodle aka Brunskadoon / Miss Beatrix Francis Potter 🎄 #adoptdontshop #chihuahuasofinstagram #quadsquad This is such a rare occurrence and I nearly fainted with delight that all four of those furry faces were gathered together on that sofa. And no one was upset or disgruntled or growling (and if you have multiple chihuahuas you know exactly what I mean) Well ... almost no one, Miss Beatrix Francis Potter is dramatically displaying her angsty disapproval 🦇 #motherofchihuahuas (at Highland Square, Akron) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br07PXFAcXL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1t0oflro85ioo
