Hi Liz,
I am thrilled to find your blog. As another Austin mom of three who likes to run and eat spicy tacos (and guac though c’mon that really goes with out saying, right?), I am already hooked. We have to meet! Consider me a new avid reader.
xo,
Jennifer
Liz! Omg. It’s Carrie Meadows (Timanus). I just stumbled over your blog from another blog…
I saw the cute kids, the Austin looking backgrounds, and then clicked on this page. Small world!
Liz, I LOVE your website and blogs! The pics along with captions are some serious memory-makers. What I love even more is that you are making time to document the ordinary everyday wonder of life as a Mom with three kids. The gratitude journal is an awesome idea!!! I love the pic of you on your bike with little Smiley!!! Thanks for sharing! Amy

So I told the kiddos today that I would check your blog for any Halloween pics. Instead, I found myself reading over a year and half of posts. Now that my tears have dried, I want to commend you on a job well-done. You are able to beautifully capture the ‘small moments’ and ‘big stories’. As I’ve always said, your family is incredibly special to me. And you, my friend, are such an inspiration. Your strength, positivity, and smile help to make your home the happy place that it is. I feel blessed to know you and look forward to many more ‘small moments’ shared with your family.
