Traveling with G is hands down one of the coolest things I could do. We learned so much about each other and got to explore an incredible place that we hadn’t been to before. There were so many lessons we learned while we were gone for a week & I just thought it was absolutely … Continue reading The Couple that Travels Together
Did you see the news? Who are you voting for? Can you believe they said that? We all know where I stand on sharing my political, monetary and religious beliefs. Call me old-fashioned but we all know that the conversations we have now would make our grandparents clutch their Bibles. Politics are tricky.

After a day of drinking, it was time to get back on the exploration trail, so we headed to El Yunque National Forest! Fun fact: El Yunque is completely free and is the only tropical rainforest in the national forest system...pretty cool and beautiful to say the least. El Yunque is decently far from Old … Continue reading Chasing Waterfalls

The Good List: The pink evenings of summer, creaky wood floors & cities at night What I’m Here For From “Me” to “We”: This was probably the most intense week of my life.

I can’t believe it’s been almost A YEAR since I drove into Waco with a fresh, baby Fenway sitting in my lap. I also can’t believe it’s been almost a year since I first tried to go to The Magnolia Table but was burnt out by the wait. This year, we went and it was … Continue reading Gather Around the Table
I was walking around Target on Saturday night and I truly screamed when I saw that there were already back-to-school supplies out (I mean, come on, it was still frickin’ June).
