April 15, 2022April 7, 2022 / Andrea / 1 Comment

Let's take this Flashback Friday to the year 2012, when I jumped out of a perfectly good airplane. We're in the plane, heading up. Such an amazing feeling! We landed safely!

Seven Moments

November 10, 2019November 19, 2019 / Andrea / 1 Comment

While waiting in line at the grocery store a few weeks ago, I glanced over at the various magazine covers cleverly placed as impulse purchases at checkout. Celeb gossip, tabloid news, and scandalous headlines were all vying for my attention. The cover of People magazine caught my eye, mostly because I noticed a photo of handsome Prince … Continue reading Seven Moments

January 31, 2015February 2, 2015 / Andrea / Leave a comment

Raising a girl requires moxie. Being a female can be daunting at times. Many of us struggle to figure out who we are well into adulthood.

I don't have a bucket list, but if I did, I would be able to cross off "Go skydiving" from it. I went for the first time this past Friday and it was INCREDIBLE! One of my work friends, Kristin, was brave enough to join me. The scariest parts of the entire experience were all … Continue reading Skydiving Moxie

Introduction

January 5, 2013January 20, 2013 / Andrea / 1 Comment

Life as I knew it changed once I became pregnant. The higher-level-thinking part of my brain seemed to have shut down in order to redirect all of its energy into the rest of my body, which was creating my baby.
