It's been a wild and heavy week, hasn't it? I'm de It's been a wild and heavy week, hasn't it? I'm definitely feeling it. Still processing much I've what I've watched, seen, and heard.

There's a lot to sift through online, but here are a few videos that are definitely worth the time - to bring perspective, some joy, and some love. I've posted some in my stories this week but wanted a permanent place on my feed. The links are all clickable in my bio. 

Watch @marielle.elizabeth's video "Being Healthy Doesn't Make Your Life More Valuable" https://www.instagram.com/p/CNoItr8ANtC/.

Watch @celeighcardinal's new music video which celebrates community, friendship, and all forms of love.

Meet a remarkable family. The family of Rob White - the man who presumed drowned after trying to save a dog in the river last week - spoke on love, kindness and legacy on #RealTalkRJ. I was honestly bawling the whole time (starts at the 1:20 mark): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IG7s3JsUT6Q

I'm also heartbroken to hear about another unnecessary loss. Daunte Wright. To the black community - I'm sorry. I'm so sorry you're having to go through this again. 

Hugs to you, friends. ❤
Happy birthday @ryanjespersen! 🥳🥳 🥳 Alth Happy birthday @ryanjespersen! 🥳🥳 🥳

Although this photo is from a year ago, the setting will be exactly the same for Ry's second pandemic birthday: cocktails 🥂and Crispy Crunch Cake 🎂. It's all you truly need, isn't it? Your family, delicious food, and fabulous cocktails! 😊

I won't get too mushy but I love this guy so much. He LIVES life to the fullest. Always bringing the fun, he cares deeply, and loves unconditionally.❤❤ If you haven't already done so check out his show Real Talk at RyanJespersen.com. 

Oh - and the cake recipe is at KariSkelton.com (link in my bio). Only three ingredients! 🕺🙌

Do you celebrate your dog's birthday?

Curious- how are you handling planning for summer? Curious- how are you handling planning for summer?🏖 I'm hoping we'll be at a place in this pandemic where we can road trip with friends, but I don't know.🤷‍♀️ 

Are you booking or have you already booked everything just in case and then will cancel if need be? 

Last summer we rented a motorhome and camped in Kananaskis and it was amazing!🏞 If you're still trying to convince your spouse that the family needs a trailer (like I am 😊), check out RVezy.com - an RV rental marketplace where you rent from private owners (kind of like Air BNB). We had a great experience! 🙌🤍
