Home Sweet Home


In the leaving,
in the letting go,
let there be this
to hold onto
at the last:
the enduring of love
the persisting of hope,
the remembering of joy,
the offering of gratitude,
the receiving of grace,
the blessing of peace.
-Jan Richardson, Circle of Grace 



morning run 

pop the cork- we're back together! 

family dinner - my heart is full! 

so many sweet memories

Camino Trip- Homecoming Day

it's been such a wonderful trip, but I'm so excited to come home to see my people! 

This giant heart rock I got on the Camino made it through three screening checks through Santiago, Madrid, and Boston (though the security might have been a bit questionable in letting me bring this in my carry-on) 

🤣




back in Seattle!

Meanwhile, the chalk fairies were hard at work to welcome us home....

Getting Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable

 Rain, Sleet. Hail. Cold. (and a cold plunge to top it off in the Snoqualmie River) This is the PNW! 

Climbing up to Mount Si with Rowan and Joscha on the Old Si Trail

We were not expecting a view at the top! 

you can't tell but it was sleeting in this picture! Brr.... 

proof of icy precipitation! 

crazy folks who jump in rivers after cold hikes
