I’m in the last few days leading up to my next vacation, and this will probably be the last post I get to put up before I’m off to California!! I have at least one post queued up that will post when I’m gone, but this will be the last one before I actually leave. And I actually have something exciting for this post…a video! [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CZOSQ4usGI&w=560&h=315] I decided that since I got this fancy new vlogging camera, I should probably practice a little bit and get used to it before busting it out for the first time on our…

I Bought a Fancy Camera
Today I’m taking a brief pause from my normal posts to share with you something super exciting!! (Also, I’m so glad to be back in the swing of things around here to the point where I can actually say I have “normal posts” again!) I recently made a really big and exciting purchase that I have been working towards for a long time. I bought a new camera! There are many reasons behind this purchase and I’ve been wanting it for so long, I cannot WAIT to start using it. Obviously I’ve been wanting to take better quality photos for…

Moulin Rouge! The Musical – Review
I have been cautiously excited to write this post since we took our whirlwind trip to Boston a few weeks ago. A few people have asked what I thought of the show and I have SO MANY thoughts about it – both good and bad – and this post will serve mostly as a dumping ground for all of it. I’m not a musical critic or anything so if you found this page on google or something, you might wanna look elsewhere for a review from someone whose opinion actually matters 😉 These are my thoughts about Moulin Rouge! the…

Back in Business
There’s no good way to segue out of my last post, so I just wanted to give a quick update on how things have been going since then. After this it’ll be back to my usual weird and fun postings, hopefully 🙂 First of all – I just want to say thank you SO MUCH to everyone who reached out to me regarding my last post. Honestly, I was terrified to post it and I was waffling about whether I should put it up at all. The amount of amazingly kind and thoughtful messages I have received has made me feel…

Where I’ve Been
It’s been a little quiet around here, huh? As you may or may not have noticed, I took a bit of an unexpected hiatus from my blog. I didn’t intend to – it just kind of happened. I had the next post drafted and almost ready to put up, I had a list of ideas and fun things that I wanted to write about… and then I just stopped. There’s no use beating around the bush here, so let me cut to the chase and explain what’s been going on with me. Things are mostly fine, but this post is…

If you haven’t already, make sure you read the other posts first – they’re listed chronologically here 🙂 DAY 4 – TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 6 Our adventures on Kauai had been amazing so far, but sadly it was already almost time for us to head to our next island! Our flight didn’t leave until the afternoon, but we were still up early to gather our things and pack up. We enjoyed our gorgeous view one last time: And we were out the door and waving goodbye to our adorable hotel around 9:45.…

This is post #3 in my series all about our honeymoon! If you haven’t already, make sure you read the other posts first – they’re listed chronologically here 🙂 Day 3 – Monday, February 5 After a long day of travel the day before, we were ready and excited to get up and explore Hawaii! And when we woke up, we were shocked to find THIS outside our hotel window: The place completely TRANSFORMED in the day time! It was so dark the night before that we didn’t even know our little lanai had this stunning view of the mountains…

Where We Got EVERYTHING For Our Wedding
Today’s 4 months since our big day and I’m actually nearing the end of my wedding content here on the blog! Welcome back to yet another wedding post – and this will be a big one. To go along with all my planning pages, I figured I would put together a list of absolutely EVERYTHING from our wedding – all our resources, where we bought stuff, and everything in between. It’s something I would have found helpful in planning our wedding and I also just want to share and show appreciation for everything and everyone involved. So…here’s the scoop! Here’s…
