As i sit here in this plane with tears streaming down my face after another fantastic adventure, I just simply do not have the words. I am absolutely unable to express how amazed and grateful I am to have the incredible friendships that I do. Whether they've spanned months or decades, a hundred yards or thousands of miles, each one has been such a blessing in my life. I honestly don't know how I got so lucky, but I'll never take any of you for granted.
I also fail miserably at taking photos...and even more so at posting them. 😅 I thank the photographers! But as one of those fabulous friends @Lesa.Mora has said for years: "Less is more."
At the same time, our favorite artist, @joeymcintyre has been reminding us to put our phones down, be present, and truly live in the moment.
However, I want to capture all the moments, too. Embracing both philosophies isn't always easy. Being fully present creates the memories, while the photos we do take become little treasures that let us relive them again and again.
The laughter. The fun. The tears. The hugs. The smiles. The inside jokes. The late-night talks. The rants. The celebrations. The hard days. The ordinary moments that somehow become extraordinary. The good, the bad, and everything in between.
I never imagined I'd be surrounded by such phenomenal women. Each of you has qualities I admire, strengths I look up to, and a light that inspires me to be a better person, a better wife, a better mom, a better daughter, a better sister and a better friend.
Whether we've known each other decades or found each other later in life...whether we're separated by miles, oceans or just around the corner...you have each left an imprint on my heart that words can't fully capture.
So, while I may not post often (anymore) and while there are countless memories that were never photographed, please know they are forever etched in my heart. Thank you for every laugh, every hug, every pep talk, every adventure, and every moment we've shared. Thank you for choosing me, just as I choose you. 💙💜
I love you all more than words can say, and I'll forever be grateful that life brought us together. by @karrine.rushing

Over the weekend, I made a VERY impulsive, last minute "mad dash" 😏 decision to grab a couple friends to go support a good cause and attend a fabulous event featuring the brilliant Stephen Schwartz.
The Altadena Community Theater was tragically destroyed in the Eaton fire last year, but its founder made it her mission to bring it back, whatever it takes.
Incredibly talented artists (from community theater , Broadway, local artists, the voice, AGT, etx) took the stage to honor some of Mr. Schwartz's most iconic pieces, in the presence of Schwartz himself.
Stephen Schwartz took his place at the piano for a few songs, but tears streamed down my face as he sang "For Good"
I was profoundly humbled to see first hand the devastation left behind after the fire and the incredible love, hope, support and resilience of the community. While my ticket contribution was merely a drop in the bucket needed to rebuild, I am honored to have been a part of the evening and the rebuilding of this treasured place.
If it weren't for the extra little nudge from the announcement of adding @jamesbyous and a clip showing Joe McIntyre singing As Long As You're Mine from Wicked, I wouldnt have gone. But I am SO glad I did!
What an incredible experience! It was great to see several NKOTB fans there, but also the Incredible cast and crew from the Cinevita!! 💜 by @karrine.rushing

Several months ago, there was a social media trend "what I looked like when I thought I could land a new kid" I never participated.🤣
However, 12 yr old me in this 1st photo never could have imagined that I'd spend my 45th birthday at a NKOTB concert and get hugs and photos with my childhood crush. Dreams do come true! 💙 I think he may recognize me now, maybe? 🤔 @joeymcintyre @nkotb See ya again soon!! 🥰 by @karrine.rushing
