Happy Sunday! Come see what I’ve been up to this week, plus some of my current faves and new finds.

My little loves.

It’s been a rather uneventful week around our house and I think it must be the calm before the crazy whirlwind of the holidays. I’m trying to enjoy it while I can— naps, lazy walks, cookie baking just for fun, etc.

This week also brought abrupt change from fall to winter here in Utah. Last week I was in flip-flops and a light jacket, but now our heaviest coats, hats and gloves are necessary. Plus, our first snow flurries!

Goodbye fall, you were lovely.

While I rake the leaves. #dailyjohn

And now for some Sunday stuff!

A photo of my brown butter chocolate chip cookies went gangbusters on instagram earlier this week. And I can see why, it’s one of my favorite recipes.

I had some new headshots taken this week by my talented friend Heidi. Here’s a sneak peek!

I loved this video so much about how we can turn envy into admiration and abundance. “It’s understandable to want to fight for a bigger piece of the pie, but it’s admirable to fight for a bigger pie.”

If you’re a swimmer like me, this app is a must for tracking your workouts.

We made this honey mustard chicken for dinner this week. So yummy!
