Picture this: me pulled over on the side of the road, flipping through a map book, trying to figure out if I missed my turn... again. A wrong turn meant recalculating manually! 🤦♀️

My superpower? When I walk into a home, I can see things you might not...
Smart home tech is everywhere these days, but not every gadget is worth the investment. 💸
Are you with the right flock? 🪿
Thinking about moving to a smaller home and cutting out the extra “stuff”? Downsizing doesn’t have to be overwhelming – here’s where to start!
I spend quite a bit of time in airports, commuting from Oregon to Utah. With my laptop, my phone for a secure hotspot, my air buds for some noise cancellation, good tunes (currently listening to Chris Stapleton and remembering his concert last Summer) and I’m a happy girl. I’m grateful I’m able to work just about anywhere I am.
🎃 5 Tips for a Safe & Fun Halloween Night! 🎃
Savoring a cozy fall day with my two loves, Makenna and Miles, surrounded by golden aspens. This momma’s heart is full. 💚
The home of my dreams would be a true "unicorn" in real estate: a main-level primary suite with its own wing and private office, followed by a spacious great room with a gourmet kitchen and tall ceilings to match my tall family. Picture big windows filling the space with natural light and offering endless valley views, along with an accordion glass door opening to a covered outdoor living area, complete with a kitchen and pool—because nothing would make me happier than my own pool, I LOVE the water. 🌊
I was listing to a podcast epsiode by @edmylett where he discusses the idea of not living life looking in the rearview mirror. In the episode, Mylett explains that the past is in the past, and that most of the time there’s nothing to be done to change it. He says that looking back and replaying the past can prevent people from focusing on the opportunities in front of them. Mylett suggests that people should use their past experiences to motivate them and keep moving forward. Such great words of advice, I just had to share!
Portland locals are biased but... we love it here. 🌲💚🏔

She’s such a treasure, always bringing light and thoughtfulness into my day. This day, she surprised me with a Sinterklaas gift (the Dutch version of Santa Claus 🎅🏻) and the most beautiful poem.
I love how she shares her Dutch traditions with me—it’s such a gift in itself!
Fast forward 20+ years, and let me tell you: GPS is a game-changer! These days, I hop in my car, punch in an address, and follow those soothing turn-by-turn directions like a pro. No detours. No guesswork. Just smooth sailing to my next showing. 🙌

✨ Make it memorable with these must-dos:

• Breakfast: Start your day with a cozy breakfast at @sthonorebakery. Their chowder tea? Simply unmatched!
• Shop: Find unique gifts at @cityhomelakeoswego and @mapelboutique.

It depends! Timing your sale is about more than just market trends—it’s about your goals.
1-Seasonal Insights: Spring & summer see more buyers, but winter`s lower competition can help your home shine.
2-Market Conditions: A seller’s market = opportunity. Watch mortgage rates, inventory, & local demand.
3-Your Needs: Moving for a job? Downsizing? Ensure the timing works for your life & your home`s readiness.
4-Local Trends: Popular neighborhoods & amenities can be game-changers.

This is my mental checklist anytime we head into a listing–
🚩 Water marks on the ceiling
🚩 Cracks in the walls or foundation
🚩 Sloping or slanting floors
🚩 Sagging roof
🚩 Cracked sidewalks or driveway
🚩 Single pane windows
🚩 Discolored water
🚩 Outdated wiring
🚩 Signs of mold
It`s always recommended to have a professional inspection done before buying to reveal any hidden problems.
But an experienced agent can perform a first-pass and help identify potential issues that might not be immediately obvious.
There’s *so* much more than meets the eye when we go house hunting.

So, which upgrades actually add value and make life easier? Here’s a quick breakdown.
Top Smart Home Investments:
1. Smart Thermostats – They adapt to your schedule and help reduce energy costs.
2. Smart Lighting – Control your lights remotely, save on energy, and create the perfect mood.
3. Smart Security – Doorbell cameras and smart locks give peace of mind and are appealing to future buyers.
Affordable & Practical Options:
1. Smart Plugs & Switches – Easily control electronics from your phone.
2. Voice Assistants – Devices like Alexa or Google Home help manage daily tasks.
Upgrades to Think Twice About:
1. Specialized Devices – Items like smart wine coolers are fun but may not add resale value.
2. Full-Home Automation – Impressive but not always practical or necessary.
Smart upgrades bring convenience, savings, and can even help when it’s time to sell your home. What smart home features can you not live without? 📱
Are you with people that inspire you, elevate you, empower you and help educate you?
Find those people that lift you up and help you to be your best self! 💚
Do you have an amazing flock?
🏠 Start small – Begin with one room or closet. Sorting in stages keeps you moving forward without the stress.
💛 Keep what matters – Prioritize the pieces you truly use and love. Downsizing is the perfect time to let go of the rest.
📏 Assess your needs – Picture your ideal new space. How much room do you need for what really matters?
🤲 Donate or sell – Your unneeded items could bring joy to someone else. Decluttering is easier when you know it’s helping others!
💼 Bring in pros – A professional organizer or move consultant can streamline the process, making your move to a smaller home smooth and stress-free.
Ready to make the leap? I have fantastic local resources and industry experts to help with every step of downsizing. Reach out if you need any recommendations! 🏡
1️⃣ Stay Visible: Add reflective tape to costumes and carry glow sticks or flashlights!
2️⃣ Watch for Traffic: Stick to sidewalks & cross at corners to stay safe from cars.
3️⃣ Inspect Treats: Peek through the goodies before anyone digs in.
4️⃣ Stay in Groups: Trick-or-treating is more fun (and safer!) with friends!
5️⃣ Choose Comfy Costumes: Make sure kids can walk, see, and move freely.
Happy Halloween! 👻🍬
Upstairs would host five bedrooms to give everyone their space, while a four-car garage with extra-tall doors would make room for a boat and adventure van (which may be in my near future!). Wide plank hardwood floors on the main level would be easy to maintain, and the great room’s cozy fireplace would bring us together in the winter. 🔥
Outside, the yard would feature low-maintenance grass, hydrangeas, and roses—perfect for minimal upkeep since I love adventuring but not yard work! And with 1-2 acres for a sense of privacy, it would be a perfect retreat for Dustin and I. 😍
Imagining these possibilities is so fun! What would your dream home look like?
I’m sending good vibes of abundance and goodness and hoping your future decisions will bring you happiness. 💚

Tusk is my new Mediterranean go-to! Their hummus? Perfection. The tomato cucumber salad? Chef’s kiss. And don’t even get me started on the chicken skewer – I crave it the second my plate is empty. 10/10, highly recommend with all 10 fingers! 🥙✨
