The word of this month seems to be transitions. It’ll be the end of summer before we know it. We’ll be settling back home just as the new school year begins. We’ve also been transitioning how we delegate — working on moving more off of both mine and Thomas’s plates, while taking on bigger-picture projects and long-term goals. We’re growing both our team and our household to support that shift and to make space for more. I’m excited to return to the rhythms of our “normal” routine by mid-August. In the meantime, here’s a peek at what’s going on:
What We’re Doing
- Kicking off the month with a visit to our family’s ranch in Idaho — slower days outdoors, cousin time, and a nice break.
- Heading from Idaho to California, with stops throughout the state — including the girls’ first visit to San Francisco, time in San Diego with friends, a stop at Legoland, and a visit with my grandma.
- Ending the trip in Hawaii for a family wedding. Clementine is thrilled — she’s in her peak Stitch era, and Hawaii is everything to her right now.
- Celebrating Clementine’s sixth birthday this month. I always get emotional around her birthday — maybe because she’s our first, or maybe because it’s just one of those milestones that quietly catches up with you. I truly can’t believe she’s going to be six.
- Hosting a big shoot at our house at the end of the month for a collaboration launching early fall.
- Kicking off marketing and photoshoots for another collaboration launching later this year. So much work behind the scenes is starting to take shape.
- We watched the new Apple TV show Stick (with Owen Wilson) and absolutely loved it — such a feel-good series. It reminded me a little of Ted Lasso in the best way.
