      <image:caption>Everyone remembers their loved ones in their own way. For the past fifteen years, my husband and I have honored my brother Brett’s memory by lighting a candle for him whenever we travel. We have lit candles in fifteen countries, in churches, cathedrals, and temples. Recently, we lit candles at the magnificent St. Lambert Basilica in Düsseldorf (pictured) and at Cologne Cathedral in Germany. Now, in addition to Brett, we light candles for Grayson and my cousin, Judd, both of whom were remarkable individuals.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Because of its importance to the Sioux people, the Pasque was chosen as South Dakota’s official flower. I was led to this lovely lavender flower when searching for information about the saying, “All things are connected.” I believe in this, and the phrase was on my website’s home page at some point. I wanted to see where it came from and found information about that particular idea and more.</image:caption>

      <image:title>blog - Two Years Strong: We Can Do Hard Things - October marks two years since I started working out at The Y</image:title>
      <image:caption>Three days a week. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Rain or shine, hot or cold, I show up. Most mornings, I roll out of bed, lace up my shoes, and head out the door before I’m barely awake. What I didn’t realize when I began was the complex relationship between consistency and fitness. Some days I push myself. Some days I just show up. And both count. What is the most important thing I have learned? We can do hard things. Not because it’s simply a challenge or fun every time, but because somewhere along the way, we stop asking if we can, and start pushing and realize that we already are. That we have been; every step, every drop of sweat, all prove the same truth:</image:caption>

      <image:title>blog - Two Years Strong: We Can Do Hard Things - Strength isn’t loud. It’s steady.</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is not the way I generally work. I’m inspired, making lists, and craving creativity. But somehow the days became weeks, then months, and at the two-year mark, I feel empowered and confident. I’ve reaffirmed my worth and potential as someone turning 56 in a week. I feel immense pride in having shown up, worked hard, and embraced the journey. We can both do difficult things. I want to thank all of the instructors—I think I’ve been in everyone’s class at some time in the last two years. I really want to say why I’m thankful. I’m grateful for you being there, every time, on time, with a smile, different music, a fantastic variety of combinations for all types of Burn classes, H.I.T.T. classes, Bootcamp, Stretch, YFit, and Cardio Strength, to name a few. Thank you!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Every year, I ask for a “Happiness” birthday cake because I believe sharing the joy is much more fun than keeping it all to myself. But this year’s celebration is overflowing with happiness. I’m excited to introduce our new chocolate lab puppy, Oliver, named by our 19-year-old! A special thanks to David and Suzanne for bringing us Oliver, a puppy to shower with joy, love, and new adventures! (Be sure to see Oliver’s gallery below)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“There is sweet music here that softer falls Than petals from blown roses on the grass, Or night-dews on still waters between walls Of shadowy granite, in a gleaming pass; Music that gentlier on the spirit lies, Than tir'd eyelids upon tir'd eyes; Music that brings sweet sleep down from the blissful skies. Here are cool mosses deep, And thro' the moss the ivies creep, And in the stream the long-leaved flowers weep, And from the craggy ledge the poppy hangs in sleep.” Me: Appearances can be deceiving.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This photo still makes me laugh, no matter how many times I see it. Jake is casually resting his arm on his Mom, Amy's, head. And there’s Mike photobombing from behind with his sly sense of humor. Jake is my brother Brett’s son, and Mike is the great person who stepped in to fill that role after Brett died. Clearly, someone ate all his vegetables growing up. The picture was taken back in high school, but today, Jake’s even more impressive. He’s now on the path to earning his Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Jake is smart, hard-working, kind, and funny. He’s not just tall; Jake stands out in every way that matters, not that I’m biased or anything.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>March 18, 1972 — July 17, 2009 My brother, Brett, was killed by a drunk driver when he was 37. Thirty-seven. Greg and I spent the day at the cemetery—cleaning his headstone, adding fresh flowers, and crying. There aren’t enough words to describe the loss our family carries. And there will never be enough to explain all that he has missed. In the photo, Brett is taking my sons and his to a U.G.A. football game. He loved being their uncle and loved being a father above all. Please, don’t drink and drive.</image:caption>

      <image:title>blog - Tattoo #196: A Chance Encounter</image:title>
      <image:caption>An Unexpected Invitation I was thinking about adding to a tattoo I already have, but I didn’t have a plan. We had just moved back to Atlanta, and Greg and I were flipping through artist portfolios at a local shop when we found ourselves sharing a couch with a kind-eyed man with a long beard. He introduced himself as Don, and within minutes, we were pulled into his story. He was visiting shops around the country to share his journey. He asked if I’d like to get a matching tattoo with him, to share in his search for individual connection, and yet, at the same time, participate in something bigger than ourselves. Don would get whatever you were getting and didn’t want to influence what it would be. He wanted it to be unique to the “stranger” he had just met. Don’s life project was ultimately called StrangerInk.org. Ultimately, Don thought of it as a way of being remembered, but it was primarily a means of connection. At first, I wasn’t sure. Greg and I went home to discuss it, and I began researching Don’s project. News stations had reported its beginning near his hometown in Ohio, and then also reported on news stations in Kentucky and beyond. Social media featured friends with matching tattoos he made while on his mission to make connections—with 194 strangers and counting—all while living with terminal cancer.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.” He was talking about being fired from Apple. But as I listened, I didn’t think about computers. I thought about motherhood.</image:caption>

      <image:title>blog - The Beauty of Becoming - Letting go occurs while you are still holding on.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Letting go of your children isn’t one single moment. It happens in stages, like Autumn leaves falling from a tree. I didn’t realize that letting go would feel so much like beginning again. And in many ways, it is.</image:caption>

      <image:title>blog - Kale Chips are Gross - Embarking on a Sugar-Fueled Adventure</image:title>
      <image:caption>In my teenage years, I embarked on a sugar-fueled adventure when the opportunity arose. I discovered Peanut Butter Captain Crunch during a week of dance camp and ate it daily while I could. I also tried Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. I will never forget my first bite of the soft, sugar-glazed miracle. Later in life, my husband and I went to get doughnuts so often that my young son pointed at the Krispy Kreme sign and said his first word: "Dough."</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Father's Day was beautiful for relaxing in the shade by the lake near my parents' house. Later, we enjoyed making bead garden stakes with my aunt, who lives in assisted living, and my uncle, who is in a nursing home. This little surprise meant so much to all of us. We left two garden stakes to add color to the garden at the nursing home. It turned out to be a perfect day.</image:caption>

      <image:title>blog - Mountain Girl Meets Miami - Falling in love with surf, culture and energy.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Last month, I had the opportunity to visit Miami. Since I’m a mountain and lake person, I was initially ambivalent. I was not thinking about adventure or having an open mind. When I arrived, a soul from a different part of the South met the high-rise heat, neon nights, and the unexpected beauty of contrast. Bright colors, palm trees, and a diverse mix of people surrounded me. Wonderfu!</image:caption>
