🤟🏻 Exploring the world with my tiny copilot
🥾Hiking, roadtrips & adventure travel
📍Arizona

POV: you decide to slow down and have a small town POV: you decide to slow down and have a small town summer ☀️🌿
We’re spending July in Kanab, Utah where my grandparents and cousins live, and it’s the kind of peaceful, simple summer I’ve been craving. The days are filled with small-town 4th of July parades, creek splashing, and slow evenings that smell like grass and sunscreen. Life moves a little slower here and it just feels good.

It’s special to spend the days surrounded by family, letting the days unfold without a schedule, and watching Miles enjoy the same kind of summer I grew up with. It’s not about going somewhere new or big. It’s about being present and letting the little moments mean the most. 💕

Sometimes I remember this isn’t forever and it h Sometimes I remember this isn’t forever and it hits me like a punch to the gut. The tiny hands in the mud and the way he looks at the world like everything is magic. 🌿💧 These moments feel so big now, but I know they’ll pass faster than I’m ready for.

I’m just a mom trying to soak up the slow days while I can because one day the mud puddles and wild adventures won’t be part of our everyday. 🥹✨ 

If you’re in this season too, hold it tight.

“You’re hard to please.” Actually, no. I’m “You’re hard to please.”
Actually, no. I’m 31 and still get excited over fireworks, monsoon storms, fresh coffee, and someone remembering the small things. I’ve never needed grand gestures, just presence, consistency, and moments that feel real. ✨

If you’ve ever been called too much or too hard to love, you’re not alone. Some people just aren’t capable of seeing how beautiful your simplicity is. I find joy in the little things, and the right people will understand that effortlessly 🫶

POV: an Arizona rite of passage. The first monsoon POV: an Arizona rite of passage.
The first monsoon of the season rolled in, and this little desert boy ran outside like the rain was calling him by name. He splashed in every puddle, let the drops soak his hair, and laughed like it was the best day of his life, because honestly, it might’ve been.

It’s special to watch your kid discover joy in the simple things. No toys, no plans, just rain and wide-eyed wonder. Arizona summers can be brutal, but moments like this? They make every 110° day worth it. 🌧️🌵💛
