living the days + writing the days. 

y’all, yes and amen.

I feel like this summer was a big fat – LIVE THE DAYS!!!!

we were road tripping across the country, visiting friends, making memories and having grand adventures.  we were investing in people, in each other, and having an absolute blast.

the summer is so often a time for bloggers like myself to take a much needed break.  kids are home from school and there is fun to be had, pools to be swam in, afternoon snow cones to be consumed, and movies to watch.

too much fun sometimes to write it all down.

but THIS.  this series.  going back through voice memos I left myself last year on the way home for Christmas, or on our summer road trip, or random moments in between – now I’m writing the days.  

I’m sitting at starbucks on a overcast Sunday morning, while my amazing hubby watches the kiddos, and writing the days.  remembering, recording, and pounding letters on my keyboard while sipping my skinny vanilla latte.

living the days is the most important, I just hope I can take Shauna’s amazing writing advice, and when it’s time to write the days, “create silence” so I can make stuff.

what about you?  how do you balance living the days + writing the days?
