I thought it would be super fun and potentially helpful to provide an as-I-go list of wedding planning and tips that have helped me through the wedding planning process. I love planning parties and I think of a wedding as just a large gathering of all of your favorite people, so I decided to forego … Continue reading An Honest Bride: One Year Out
I haven’t been too vocal about being furloughed for six months, unfortunately due to feeling humiliated and embarrassed, as well as having bitterness to the entire situation. I returned to work at the beginning of this month and it’s been quite the adjustment. I learned to reframe my mindset after having a strict schedule of … Continue reading Laying Off My Furlough
This year, I set a goal of reading two books a month, or 24 total books for the year and I did it! I was really proud of myself because none of them were re-reads and they were all different types of genres. One plus side of my six month furlough was that I had … Continue reading 2020’s Best Books…In My Opinion
“It was always you.” Jim and Pam; Ross and Rachel; David and Patrick; Hannah and Garrett. If there’s anything I’ve learned from sitcoms and scripted series, there’s nothing simple about love and living happily ever after. If I’ve learned anything, romance isn’t flowers being brought to you every day after work. It’s not chocolate and … Continue reading Tale as Old as Time
2020 seems to be the year for either having babies or making them (I guess we’ll blame that on an eight month pandemic)! With my sister’s firstborn making an appearance this year and so many friends have sweet little girls, it’s difficult to contain my excitement. I consider myself well-versed in the way of party … Continue reading The Bebe Edit: A French, Winnie the Pooh Shower
I am so freakin' thrilled that for the first time in six (!!) years, I am living in one house for more than a year! Crazy how time flies when I'm not moving state-to-state or changing mailing addresses. With that being said, now that we've lived in our little casita for a year, it was … Continue reading Small Rental Updates
I am back from an exhausting trip to Austin. Exhausting? Correct! Not just from traveling in a pandemic, concerned about every move I made, but also due to my newfound furlough at work and car troubles on my return trip. But that’s not what we’re here for on this fine Wednesday! I am here to … Continue reading I Still Love You
This week, Garrett and I were supposed to be going to Germany and France. It was a trip that I had been looking forward to for what felt like forever, but like so many others, that trip has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I’ve been in a bit of a slump because of … Continue reading Traveling during a Pandemic
I’ve seen a ton of people share their favorite songs to listen to with the 30-Day Challenge and instead of flooding the social sites with my recommendations, I thought I’d share them in one post with my favorite followers! Gold Digger by Kanye West: A song you like with a color in the title. 3:15 … Continue reading 30, Flirty, Thriving Songs
It’s summer-reading season although every season is reading season during this stage of our life, i.e. the pandemic. One of my greatest passions in life is the beauty of a well-written book. As I continue to curate my personal-home library, I thought I’d go ahead and share some of my favorite books of all time, … Continue reading If I Had a Book Club
