Welcome Summer!

 


Hey Besties!

It's been a bit since I've written a post. Things have been kind of wild in my world. 

Lots of craziness happening and my mom had quite a health scare as well. 

SO here I am and moving along with good intentions! 

It's summer! We had the Summer Solstice, the Strawberry Moon and we are going through the seasonal changes. I am not a summer girl. Well. A little. I love the lake, boating, kayaking, things like that, but I do not like to be hot. Fall is where it's at for me!

Summer is also different when you don't have kiddos out of school and planning family vacations. Where are my empty nesters at? It's such a wild feeling, even though my kiddos have been grown up for several years. Does it ever get easier? Do you get used to them being grown up? It's such a weird time, but also a great time! It's awesome to watch your kids grow! 

Summer brings on so many amazing things! The sun, even when it's hot, brings the warmth of vitamin D and helps to make you feel so good when you're basking in it. 

This summer is also the last summer in my 40's. How bizarre is that? To think that I will be 50 in September? I am excited to see this new decade. I have a lot of amazing things to look forward to! Summer time in Kansas City always brings so many wonderful festivals, activities and the city is full of life! 

While it's all wonderful, this KC Girl loves her fall. I wouldn't change any of it though. As much as summer is not my favorite, it does lead us into fall! I don't think I can survive without all 4 seasons.

Tell me about your favorite season in the comments! Do you love summer? Have you set new intentions with the summer solstice?

Welcome Back!

Hey Babes! I've been gone for a bit because I was trying to figure out how to freaking add comments to this thing!  I didn't want to keep creating content that you can't interact with, and I was kind of bummed the first few posts didn't have comments!  So, here we are. Back again!  Really what I wanted to say in this post is that you can do THE THING! Whatever it is you've got your heart set on, you can do and accomplish!  When I started this journey of wanting to have more of an online presence, I had never, in the history of ever, had any idea how to create a website. But I was determined. So I hopped in and just started clicking around and figured it out! I used to say that I was stuck in nineteen dickety two when it came to electronics. My limit? Myself. I had this limiting belief that electronics were hard and that I just couldn't do it. Sound familiar?  You can! You are not too old, too set in your ways, too, whatever you keep telling yourself! If I can do

September got me feelin' all kinds of ways

Hello, September! Welcoming Fall, Fun, and Feelings 🌻🍁 Can you believe it's already September?  We have a wild and crazy September here at the MacLean house!  For me, it’s not just the start of fall but also the month I turn 50! (Cue the confetti! 🎉) I’m so excited about all the fun things we have planned—pumpkin patches, cozy sweater weather, and warm apple cider. It's that magical time of year when the air gets crisper, and the leaves start to turn those beautiful shades of red and gold. 🍂 We took an adventure to Branson last weekend! That was so much fun! With my 50th upon me later this month, my kiddos surprised me by taking us all to one of our favorite locations! We have not been to Branson as a family for way too long!  We had so much fun!  Back home for now and this next week we will head to California. I’d be lying if I didn’t say this September also feels a little bittersweet. We’re still processing the loss of my father-in-law, and it’s a reminder that life has t
