And other things.
After a year of planning, we’re finally MARRIED!! Thank goodness! This past year has been the craziest, happiest, most stressful times of my life, but it was all worth it when the 22nd arrived. Even this last week has been a whirlwind with the last of friends and family departing, cleaning house, and leaving for …
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Hope you and yours are having a great holiday season xo We had a fairly quiet and very relaxing first Christmas in California this year. Saving for a wedding keeps the budget pretty tight, but we’ll see our loved ones very soon! Almost two months to the day. And a …
Hello hello! I know, it’s been a reeeallly long time since my last blog post. It seems to be harder and harder to find time these days. We’re now into December and the holidays! My favorite time of year. Though sunny days and shorts after Thanksgiving are still an adjustment (I know, even after a …
Hello! It’s been awhile, I know. Between house guests, birthdays, wedding planning, Summer in SD, and a recent Bachelorette party trip to Vegas, I’ve gotten a little behind on my blogging. Things have been crazy! Cra-zy. Since May we’ve made our way up to Laguna Niguel for my brother’s birthday and to Vegas for …

Last week Michael gave me the best present in the world! He asked me to marry him on our fourth anniversary together. I am basically the happiest person on Earth. And right now, maybe the most prone to getting into a car accident. Engagement rings should come with a warning label that says driving with your …
Some of my favorite photos from the last six months in San Diego. Living, laughing, loving <3
Nothing like the sight of pumpkins and Halloween candy at the grocery store to remind you that Summer is coming to an end. I can’t believe it’s almost October, and I’m now three months as a San Diegan. It’s funny, in a nauseating “roll-my-own-eyes” kind of way, when cliche sayings actually hit home. Time flies …
It’s no secret how much I enjoy going to bars and eating out at restaurants. Of course I can list multiple reasons why I should make more effort to stay in, but sitting in a crowded pub surrounded by the low, steady roar of chatter… it’s what brings me joy. I love being amidst the …
On day eight, we left LA and took an obvious detour on our way to San Diego. LAS VEGAS. You can guess who masterminded this side trip – – just a mere five hours in the opposite direction we were heading. Each way. But really, who complains about Vegas!? Mid-week rates are especially low, and …
