  • Cake Inspiration found on @pinterest by: @butterfingersbake Chocolate Ganache & American Butter Cream recipe by: @chelsweets Jaryd turned 5 on the 12th. Too bad he was home sick 🙁 we cancelled his party that same weekend too because he wasn’t fever free for 24 hours. Rescheduled it for the next weekend. Had to cancel that one too because there would’ve been way more than 10 people 😷 So, I finally made a cake, scheduled a meeting on @zoom_video_communications and had a mini party to celebrate! We were able to get friends, family & even our favorite teacher in on the call! I can’t wait to actually have a party for him! We bought inflatable dinosaur costumes 🤪 What are some of the things you’ve had to cancel due to CoVid-19? Have you found any silver linings? I complain about my kids 😂 but I’m really fortunate to be able to work from home during this time and still able to help them with their school work! I really enjoy helping with school work! #5thbirthday #birthdaycake #birthday #cake #kidscake #kidscakes #nailedit #diycake #chocolateganache #ganache #ganachecake #dinosaurcake #dinosaurtheme #chelsweets #buttercream #buttercreamcake #buttercreamfrosting #dinocake #dinocakes #dinosaurparty #dinoparty #fifthbirthday #coronacancelled #cancelledplans #corona #coronavirusoutbreak #coronavirus
  • So in love with the @riverdance 25th Anniversary show 🥰 I remember watching clips on tv when I was little. I loved it so much and watched it every time, even if it was something I had already watched many times before! I thought I knew what to expect, but it still blew my mind! Jayson got us tickets for Christmas, and it happened fall on Valentines weekend, which worked out nicely 😀 he loved it just as much, if not more! Seriously, so incredible! I would spend the money on it again if they came back! #thefabulousfox #thefabulousfoxtheatre #fabulousfox #fabulousfoxtheatre #fabulousfoxstl #thefabulousfoxtheater #riverdance #riverdance25 #riverdance25thanniversary #missouri #stl #stlouis #stlmo #stlouismo #stlouismissouri #discoverstl #discoverstlouis #irishdance #playbill #riverdancer #datenight #daydate #datenightideas #datenights
  • Last weeks day date at Pickle Springs Can’t wait to bring the littles back here. Ally is going to love all the climbing opportunities! Our next day date is Sunday with @riverdance in the city! Looking forward to food options that we don’t have here 😂 What was your last day date like or what is the next one you have planned? If you could have any day date, what would you do? #ihikebecausehelovesit #picklesprings #missouri #missourihiking #hiking #daydate #daydates #outdooradventures #outdooradventure #ospreypacks #altralonepeak #altralonepeak4 #climbing #funforkids #hikingmissouri #hikinginmissouri #shorthike #shorthikes#hikingday #hikingdate #farmington #farmingtonmo #momanddadtime #kidfree #kidfreedate
  • Just finished Day 6 of Week 2s workout. I haven’t worked out a ton in the past 6 months or so, and this has been an easy way to get back into the groove of things! Check out my stories for the challenge info & todays workout!⁣ ⁣ It’s time for lunch! What are you having today? I’m about to make fish tacos 🤤🤤 changing it up a little, so I hope it turns out as good as I’m hoping! I’m starving!⁣ ⁣ This @idealfit clear whey has been my favorite since it came out! I still eat as much as I can to get my protein in, but somedays I need a little help! It tastes like those Trolli sweet & sour gummy worms! There’s a link in my bio for the #IdealFit store, and don’t forget, code 𝐃𝐈𝐀𝐍𝐄𝟏𝟓 gets you 𝟏𝟓% 𝐨𝐟𝐟!⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣⁣ #ad #idealfitforce #idealfitathlete #idealfitwomen #proteinshake #committobefit #proteinshakes #workout #proteinsupplement #proteinsupplements #iifym #workoutchallenge #clearwhey #wheyprotein #newyearnewme #newyearnewyou #macrocounting #macrotracking #fitness #easyworkouts #easyworkout #easyworkoutguides #homeworkouts #homeworkout #workoutathome
  • Am I doing this right?? 🙄😂 2nd night out by myself 😬 Hey. At least my neighbor finally stopped their target practice 15 minutes before sunset. It really distracted me from my reading...i mean....from watching for my buck 38* Feels like 32. What’s gotten into me?? #deerstand #deerseason #deerseason2019 #girlshunttoo #girlshunting #huntinggirls #huntinggirl #reading #rifleseason #missouribowseason #deer #deerhunting #deerhunter #deerhuntingseason #hunting #outdoors #buck #missouri #missourioutdoors #gowild #newhunter #bookworm #jennyhan #laurajean #larajeancovey #peterkavinsky #toalltheboysivelovedbefore #alwaysandforeverlarajean
  • If only we had a real camera... Whitaker Point in Arkansas is a must! It took us about 3.5 hours from Mid-Mo. I would’ve happily driven much longer! See my previous posts about or early morning trail run to get here 😂 I have an iPhone 6....it still works 🤷🏻‍♀️ Jayson has a 10 and he got some really good photos of our Arkansas trip. But I think it’s time for us to get away from iPhone shots for our trips. What kind of camera do you use or suggest? We don’t need anything fancy. Maybe a step or two above a basic point and shoot but not one with entirely too many buttons and options! #hawksbillcrag #whitakerpoint #whitakerpointtrail #visitarkansas #ozarks #ozarkmountains #newtoncounty #sunrise #newtoncountyarkansas #hiking #camping #altrarunning #trailrun #buffalonationalriver #thenaturalstate #outdoorlife #explorearkansas #ozarknationalforest #arkansas #arkansasoutdoors #ozarkansas #weekendgetaway #morningsunrise #weekendgetaways #vlog #blogger #vlogger #wonderfularkansas #shotoniphone
  • Just rehydrating after a trail run at 6:30am Sunday morning. Jayson and I got up at 5:30, left our camper, threw on our headlamps, hit the trail at 6:40, and raced the sun to Whitaker Point. The sun beat us, but barely! Totally worth the spill I took running in the dark! My left shoulder and right knee are feeling it today though 🤦🏻‍♀️ Have you ever been on the Hawksbill Crag trail in Kingston, AR? The “crag” is the rock formation I’m sitting next to in the pic. Hard to see, but check out my previous post to see the whole view! This is just past the incredible site that is “Whitaker Point.” It is a MUST SEE for sure! Totally worth the 40* morning, slip up on the trail, lack of sleep the night before and 5:30am alarm! Thankful for my @idealfit Seamless Long Sleeve that kept my cool and dry under many layers! My shaker cup is getting some Peach Lemonade BCAAs added in 😋 Peach Lemonade BCAAs is only $16.34 and the Long Sleeve Seamless is only $11.55 when you use code DIANE15 #hawksbillcrag #hawksbillcragtrail #whitakerpoint #whitakerpointtrail #visitarkansas #ozarks #ozarkmountains #newtoncounty #sunrise #newtoncountyarkansas #hiking #camping #daydate #trailrun #buffalonationalriver #thenaturalstate #outdoorlife #explorearkansas #ozarknationalforest #arkansas #arkansasoutdoors #ozarkansas #weekendgetaway #morningsunrise #weekendgetaways #ad #idealfitforce #idealfit
  • Pictures don’t even do this place any justice Hanging out after a mad trail dash to beat the sun. Whitaker Point/Hawksbill Crag is a MUST SEE! My KC and MidMo friends, it is worth the drive! The sunrise here is beyond incredible. I spy an @idealfit Seamless Long Sleeve & shaker cup with some Peach Lemonade BCAAs 😋 Peach Lemonade BCAAs is only $16.34 and the Long Sleeve Seamless is only $11.55 when you use code DIANE15 #hawksbillcrag #whitakerpoint #whitakerpointtrail #visitarkansas #ozarks #ozarkmountains #newtoncounty #sunrise #newtoncountyarkansas #hiking #camping #daydate #trailrun #buffalonationalriver #thenaturalstate #outdoorlife #explorearkansas #ozarknationalforest #arkansas #arkansasoutdoors #ozarkansas #weekendgetaway #morningsunrise #weekendgetaways #ad #idealfitforce #idealfit #wonderfularkansas
