Welcome to this week’s Friday Favorites! This week I pondered the idea of making this a monthly thing instead of weekly because sometimes it feels like I have trouble coming up with exciting things in my mundane life…but then I realized that’s kind of the point haha. One thing I want to mention before I do my list – remember how I mentioned Lady Gaga’s halftime show as one of my favorite things last week? Wellllllll me and some friends got tickets to her tour this week! So excited to see one of my favs in concert in just a few months!…

Walt Disney World Date Ideas
Happy Valentine’s Day! Chris and I aren’t hugely into Valentine’s Day like some people, but it’s as good of an excuse as any for us to do something fun and spend time together. This year is a special one for us because it is our last Valentine’s Day before we get married!! I thought for a special Valentine’s Day themed post I would share some of our favorite date spots at Walt Disney World <3 These are perfect places to take your significant other for Valentine’s Day or another special occasion, whether you’re a local or here on vacation. A Fancy Dinner Starting with the…

Friday Favorites #4 – 2/10
Welcome to Friday Favorites #4! I can’t believe I’ve been doing this for a month already! Here’s my favorite things for this week: Lady Gaga’s Super Bowl Halftime Show [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOU2qNCBAo0] Kicking off the list with a bang!! Everyone knows I don’t care about sports, but I do care about good live performances. I love Lady Gaga so I knew I would love this show but omg…she KILLED it. She sounded so good!! And looked so good!!! I loved that she sang a collection of old things as well as her current single, and she sang LIVE too! I absolutely…

Macy’s Spa Set Review – $90 Value?
Today I have a bit of a different review, but I’m putting it in the beauty boxes category because it’s a set of beauty items and it arrived in a box….haha This is the Macy’s 8 Piece Spa Gift Set: This is basically just a gift set of a bunch of different “spa” products. I originally saw it on My Subscription Addiction where they posted that it was marked down from $25 to $12.50. It has 6 deluxe samples of skin products, a headband and a bag. I was intrigued because it says this is a $90 value…………we’ll see about that *detective emoji*…

Seattle/Disneyland Trip – Day 5
This is part of a series about our trip to Seattle and Disneyland in April 2016. All the posts about our trip will be listed here! Make sure you read the previous days before this one Saturday, April 23, 2016 When we left off last time, we had just fallen asleep in our magical Disneyland Hotel room. But we didn’t get to sleep for long because we were up bright and early the next day to hit the parks again! And we had big plans – our Welcome to Disneyland tour was today and we were super excited to get up and at em.…

Friday Favorites #3 – 2/3
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…

Chraela Wedding Planning: One Year Out
Today is a very special day for Chris and me – it is February 2, 2017, meaning we are officially ONE YEAR away from the Chraela wedding!!! *insert iOS 10 confetti* I am SO thrilled that we’ve finally hit the year mark… our -1st anniversary, if you will! Today I thought I would share where we’re at in our wedding planning process. We don’t have much yet, but we do have a few things nailed down and ideas for mostly everything else. I can’t wait to kick planning into high gear and create our perfect wedding in just one year!! I figured I’d…

Sephora Play! January 2017
My first Sephora Play! box of the year arrived last week! Last month’s was a huge hit for me so I was really looking forward to what this one has in store. If you aren’t familiar with Sephora Play, be sure to check out some of my previous posts for an idea of what comes in these boxes. It’s a subscription box that’s $10 a month, and in the past few months they’ve really been focusing on switching things up with different variations. Each month it comes with 5 beauty products and a perfume. There’s usually a good variety of…

My Travel Bucket List
Traveling is something I love to do more than almost anything else in my life. When I was little, my family would take so many fun vacations, and I’m so grateful for all the places I’ve been able to visit so far – I’ve been to Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Mexico, Canada, and 37 US states ! I know it’s cliche and most people love to travel, but it really is something that just makes me so happy. I love trying fun foods, exploring new places, and trying to take as many photos as possible to somehow hold on to all the amazing…

Friday Favorites #2 – 1/27
Welcome to the second edition of Friday Favorites! Again I have some fun stuff to share this week, so let’s jump right in 🙂 The Keurig K15 Classic Brewing System I’ve never been a heavy coffee drinker, but I like a cup every now and then. Our roommate is decidedly a coffee drinker though, and she recently acquired a new Keurig. It seems silly that I didn’t know how to use it, but I was clueless – my family never drank coffee at home growing up! She quickly taught me how to use it and I was mesmerized. I can…
