We’re not totally into the full-wedding-planning period yet, but we have started locking some concepts, colors and creative ideas that we’ve had. We’ve decided to say no to kids being at the wedding and that we want it small; we’ve chosen the style and season; now - we have to lock down the venue. After … Continue reading I Do, Venue
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
I cannot believe at all that it is December and that there is only one month left of 2020. As we enter the holidays, it’s perfectly normal to feel burned out and even more so in a global pandemic. I started my shopping extra early this year because I’ve been on unemployment since my furlough … Continue reading A No-Stress Season
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’m no stranger to Austin, TX as you all know by now, but I very rarely spend the night in a hotel there or do anything outside of eating at my favorite restaurants and crashing the couches of friends. But after a tumultuous September, we decided to head down for an overnight in Austin and … Continue reading On The LINE
As August sipped away like a bottle of wine, I closed off the month by attending the Everygirls Rise 2020 Virtual Conference with the Every Girl Media Group and LaMarca Prosecco! From hearing from incredible professionals from Macy’s, Instagram and more to reaching into those who have left the corporate world to start their own … Continue reading Rise Up
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
