I have been incredibly busy this past month.
Obligated to share a Beau photo every month, of course 
Took this while we were descending at SMF! 
Went for a walk along the American River with my Great Uncle. Very pretty! (Taken on Pixel 11 Pro XL) 
Out to dinner with Jay and my Great Uncle in Sacramento. Best time 🙂

I went to New Orleans! Loved hanging with Antonio. Loved being present in the moment, just exploring somewhere new. I know I sound like a broken record here two years later, but my Nana would have loved it. While I won’t be sharing the NOLA photos here, I did share some on Instagram.
My heart was full and my soul was free. I left a piece of myself behind there. I hope to go back someday.
Also, can’t forget to mention it — happy birthday to my older brother-in-law! 🙂
Nick and I flew home to Albany, NY briefly to pick some things up and spend time with my family and our friends. It was truly lovely! 
“I don’t think he appreciates morning snuggle time, no.” 
Out like a light, though. 
Percy in a sink, anyone? 
If you’ve ever wanted to know just how large Percy is, here he is laying next to Nick and I. 
Nick and one of my little brothers found a beetle in the park.
