see you in a week!

We are headed out on our first big family vacation and the first week long break I've taken from the blog since our honeymoon in 2010. To say I've been looking forward to this would be like saying Ron Swanson is amazing (a gross understatement). Paul and I have spent the spring talking about what's most important to our family and the answer always circles back to time. More time together. That's really the only goal. That's the goal right now when our jobs feel all consuming and insane and that's the goal eight years from now when we will be in the position to make real decisions about career paths and ladder climbing.

Time. What a gift. I'm so looking forward to soaking it up. I'll be back here 5/11 and in the meantime I'll be overgramming palm trees, tropical drinks, maxi dresses and Ellerie's first Hawaiian adventure.

Cheers and happy May!

My name is Elise Blaha Cripe. I live in Northern California with my husband and our two daughters.

I make stuff like it's my job.

In October 2019, my book about getting stuff done, Big Dreams, Daily Joys hit bookstores everywhere. For almost ten years, this blog was where I shared (daily!) general life musings, insight into being a small business owner and the occasional craft project. I have closed comments, but feel free to email me at elise[@]elisejoy.com if you have any questions about a post you see here.

If you're new here, I invite you to browse the archives, read my small business story or start with some of my favorite things to write about, DIY home decor & goal-setting. You can also listen to my motivational speech about the power of making bold statements.

Still looking for more content? Listen to my creative podcast, take one of my eCourses or subscribe to my newsletter.

Thank you so much for dropping by.
