Ever since Athleta came to Colorado Springs, I have loved spending my allowance money at their store! I am pretty much obsessed with the cute & athletic look - seriously, I wear Nike shorts all summer long. I guess I am just a Colorado camp girl at heart. The one thing that I love most about Athleta is that they have more than work out clothing. They have comfortable outfits that you can move in, look cute in, and walk around downtown in. I picked up these fun leathery leggings and ... continue reading...
My favorite posts of 2014

Frozen Inspired Christmas Cookies
We have an annual Cookie Exchange with four families who became best friends over 25 years ago. All the ladies, the daughters, and the daughter's daughters meet up every Christmas for some good quality girl time. We each bring 3 dozen cookies, eat food, chat, laugh, and celebrate together.

I always try to ... continue reading...
