Introducing the Munterhegan's

So this happened. I was completely unaware, absolutely surprised, and got what I believe a person only wishes for.

Funny how life twists and turns. As someone who has always said I could take or leave the action of marriage, I must say I got everything I never knew I wanted. Hard to believe a girl saying she didn't desire marriage? Not really. Why? Nothing drastic, nothing obvious like the fact that my own parents divorced or plenty of my family members and friend's families have as well. I'd say I'm a little bit better off than that with my thoughts. Mostly it's just because I have never been the person who thought about wedding gowns, floral arrangements or getting a new last name. I rather like my own actually. To me, marriage is not a necessity to solidify anything more than some adjustments on some documents. Quite frankly, Hunter and I embarked on forever a long time ago. Way before the wild notion came to be that we would in fact walk down an aisle someday. Or up the stairs to a courthouse. Still far off, still planning...

Either way, Hunter is an amazing person for always thinking outside the cupcake box (literally, I mean did you see the fabulous pic above?) and I know what I truly am most thankful for is the fact that we found one another. In all our weird glory and the random ways we show each other we love one another each day, I am so happy. If this is how you feel after half a decade with someone, then I'd say Hunter and I are absolutely where we need to be. As we always have been, but now I got myself a fab rock in a fabulous antique setting. Praise the lord, the boy knows good jewelry and as always knows me, my style and how to wow me the same as he's done since day 1.

Behold, a mild collage to reflect the life behind us, dedicated to the life ahead of us:

And lastly....one of THE very first picture taken of us as weeeee wittle 21 year old bayyy-beees :):):)

Self care reset

We all hear the buzzwords self care more than ever these days. Every where you turn, a lifestyle blogger, health guru, or magazine article shares insight on ways to treat yo self to some basic T. While I love modern discussions as much as the next girl, I’m aware sometimes it just doesn’t fit and you have to reset what isn’t working. For example, some weeks I am just done by the tine Friday hits. Hell, a rough Wednesday or Thursday has crept in there, too, requiring a pause and reflection for how best to naturally beat a funk or a “feeling of less than stellar”. Here my top self care reset ideas for your consideration: Drink water: Warm it with some lemon, try some green tea for an antioxidant boost, or just plain old room temperature is a sure way to get the boost to feeling a bit better. Face it: Fewer things feel as good as a really great face mask. I love charcoal in particular lately and always feel refreshed and restored and ready to ‘face’ another day. See w...

Simple blessings

I’m lying in bed, next to a snoring husband and my baby girl dogter sprawled out cozy as can be, while the rain falls down upon our roof. Gone are the days of spending a Saturday night downtown at a club, throwing beers back in a honky think, or galavanting around to anywhere with the lights on. And I’m not mad about it. Not even a little bit. There is tilt no place I’d rather be than with hunter, Roni and our comfy sweet little home happily netflixing and writing this here post. It’s a good feeling indeed. I count my blessings extra on nights like this and say a few additional prayers for love and comfort to continue on. I truly don’t ask for more than health, happiness, and love. Anything else is gravy. To simple blessings for all.

Reset on a Weekend

One of my favorite things in the world is laying in bed on a weekend night watching Netflix movies while my Hunter and my Ro nap next to me and I scroll Instagram home design and wellness accounts as well. This is particularly enjoyable after an extra long week, I might add. I feel calm and giddy alike throughout this downtime. I am able to relax and unwind, often taking mindfulness breaks and enjoying a komboocha or lemon water simultaneously. It couldn’t be any more basic. This recharge makes me naturally happy creating reflection and gratefulness for everything in my life. I’m a hard worker with determination and I like to reach goals and make new ones so I feel like I’m on more than I’m not. I need to reset like this because it reiterates what it’s about most at the end of the day; health, happiness, and an attitude of gratitude. What is your approach to bring it all back to center? ...
