We took Lucy out on her very first boat ride yesterday. 😍😍😍😍 she loved every second. We all froze but it was worth it to see her wagging her tail. For those that may not know..she was diagnosed with cancer 2 weeks ago so we’ve set out to do things with her that she’s never done. Would love any other recommendations for her bucketlist this summer! What else should we do? . . . . #bucketlist #doglover #goldenretriever #golden #cancersucks #bucketlistfordogs #family #boating #lakelife #pontoon #boatingfamily #summeractivities #familylife #lifestyle #boatday #traveltips #travelfamily #travels #pontoonlife #pontoonboat #lakefamily #familyvacation #familytrips #laketrip 
11 years ago at this time...I made a vow to God to love you and cherish you forever. After 4 years of dating, I knew you were the one I wanted to spend my forever with. I was just 18 when we met but you’ve been my best friend ever since. These 11 years have been so good but definitely not perfect. With 3 kids, 3 dogs, a mega business and moving 5 different times...it's easy to see that life can take over and we put US on the backburner. This week has been so necessary to focus on our marriage and our future together. I love you so much babe and so glad that we said I do 11 years ago tonight. Happy Anniversary!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Also- any guesses at our first dance song? It’s a hard one. I let Chris pick it #couplestrip #anniversary #lifestyle #cabo #anniversarytrip #11years #weddingday #husbandandwife #marriage #vows #11yearanniversary #couples #wife #momof3 #community #momcommunity 
Spent the morning horseback riding through the desert and beach here in Mexico! Even got an authentic poncho to keep me warm since it was so cool in the desert. We had so much fun and Chris actually enjoyed his first horse ride ever. Maybe I can convince him to get one for our farm ☺️ he’s sold on the donkey though. We need one of those to protect the goats and chickens. 😂😂😂 If you come to Cabo then be sure to check out @rancho_carisuva for horseback riding, atv tours and donkey bikes. Definitely an experience we will never forget. Saving all of the details of our trip on my highlight for you! #travel #cabo #cabovacation #traveltips #travelblogger #community #lifestyle #mexico #mexicovacation #cabotravel #anniversarytrip #cabosanlucasmexico #travelgram #familyvacation #vacationideas #vacation #anniversarycelebration #cabotips #relationship #husbandandwife #couplesgetaway #couplesretreat 
Today was so hard. It started out with me not seeing Lucy sunbathing in the driveway and my car going over her when I was backing out. I originally thought I ran her over but when we got to the vet and they took X-rays..they realized my car didn’t actually run her over. It they did run bloodwork and tests on her and found a 6 cm lump on her lungs. The bloodwork showed signs of anemia and the vet is almost positive it’s cancer. Since she’s nearing 14 years old..they won’t do chemo or exploratory surgery. My heart is broken. He said he thinks she may have a few months before it gets too painful for her. She was my first baby. Chris got her for me for my 21st birthday and she’s been with us since we were basically babies. I knew she had outlived her life expectancy but I was in no way ready to say goodbye to her this year. I wanted to get her to the new house so she could roam 50 acres and chase the goats and chickens. I broke the news to the kids and they just cried with me. Today was hard. 
So thankful for these 3 babies. Everything I do in my life is for them. I try my absolute hardest every single day to be the best mom I can and I hope they look back one day and realize it. Being a mom is challenging, and no one has all the right answers or knows exactly what they are doing. We are all just winging it. But being a mom is the most rewarding and beautiful thing. To have a child want and need you, rely on you, and look up to you. I am one incredibly blessed momma. These 3 beautiful babies are my world. I hope all the mommas out there have a wonderful Mother's day today. You deserve it. I'm also saying extra prayers to those that have lost their moms or have been struggling to become a mom, you all are in my thoughts today. 🙏🙏 @kaylabaptistaphotography 
It’s been a week y’all. I’ve been called a bobble head..an abuser..an alcoholic..and pretty much any other name in the book. I’ve been trying to share as much as I can to really bring awareness to online bullying but to also promote positivity and keeping your head held high no matter what gets said to you. It’s hard to be called names and to have people try their hardest to bring you down. I’ve dealt with it all of my life. From being called Sunshine in elementary school because of my yellow teeth to getting tampons thrown at my head during pep rallies when I was cheering on the floor in high school. People can be so cruel and it’s getting worse with the current times. But you have to keep going! Keep your head held high and keep doing you. This is something I’m trying so hard to teach my kids too as they have also encountered bullying first hand even in kindergarten 😩😩 you have to shake it off and keep going. Sharing a quote I found today: “If people throw stones at you then pick them up and building something great” I love this so much. ❤️❤️ None of this has anything to do with our photo from last night but wanted to touch on this again since my stories expired. Last night was so much fun. We had parents night out for the first time in well over a year with some friends. My horse didn’t win though. Maybe next year 🤷♀️ #community #positivevibes #positivity #momcommunity #ltk #liketoknowit #parentsnightout #confidence #pinklily #pinklilystyle #liketoknowitstyle #derby #weddingguestdress #datenightoutfit #datenightlook #momof3 #over30
