It’s that time again! I’ve started to really enjoy these Friday Favorites posts, because they let me talk about things that are too small to feature in their own post but still worth mentioning 🙂 Eating Samples at Costco Starting things off right….lol. So my parents gave me a Costco membership for Christmas, and Chris and I went there this week to get new tires for my car. While we waited, we walked around the store eating all the samples, and I truly forgot how much fun it is hahah. We tried fancy cheese, sandwiches, chicken wings, cheeseburgers, yogurt, trail mix…it was…

Our Proposal Story
Most of the people reading this probably already know the story of our engagement. But, as I’ve said before – the motivation behind this blog is to write for myself.

The day we got engaged was one of the best days of my life (to sound cliché), and I want to remember that day and those feelings forever ^_^ Warning: this post is going to be very lovey and cheesy and warm fuzzy. If you do not like those feelings, exit now! I’m going to include lots of…
