I hope you are having a relaxing Labor Day weekend! We are enjoying some quality time together before Jason starts back to law school on Tuesday. Yesterday we had a cute visitor at our house! Zoe, my friend Amanda’s little Yorkie, spent the day with us while her humans went to Norman for the OU […]

We just returned from a week-long vacation to Colorado where we enjoyed cool weather, beautiful mountains, and wonderful friends. So, prepare yourself for the longest blog post ever. With such an amazing backdrop, every photo turned out looking like a postcard and I had a hard time narrowing them down! First, we spent a couple […]

One of the first things I noticed while strolling around Charleston was that almost all of the historic homes have beautiful window boxes overflowing with flowers. Few of the homes in the historic district have yards since they are built so close together, therefore planters are pretty much all the gardening space Charlestonians have available. […]

In my last post I mentioned that we were planning a little getaway to celebrate our sixth wedding anniversary. Every year we try to visit someplace we’ve never been and kept hearing wonderful things about Charleston, South Carolina, so we decided it was time to check it out for ourselves. I’m so glad we did!

This weekend marks six years of holy matrimony for us! Instead of exchanging gifts, we have a tradition of celebrating our wedding anniversary by taking a trip to a place we’ve never been. Some years we go on a big adventure to a faraway destination; other years our vacation is not quite as exotic. Nonetheless, […]

Watching the snowflakes fall reminded me that I still needed to post the video from our holiday vacation. Jason and I spent the week after Christmas skiing in Park City, Utah, where several feet […]

When my besties Christian and Bethany were in town last weekend they were laughing about the random assortment of items I keep in my car and decided I needed to blog about it. So you actually have them to thank for this post! Before I show you the junk in my trunk, let me first […]

I just returned from a spontaneous trip to Chicago with my mom. We were chatting on the phone several days ago and the conversation went something like this: Mom: “We should take a girls’ trip somewhere.” Me: “Ok, where do you want to go?” Mom: “Wouldn’t it be fun to take an architectural tour of […]

I spent the weekend with Frank Lloyd Wright. Um, I should probably clarify that statement. I didn’t actually see him (he’s dead, you know), but rather spent the night inside the architectural masterpiece he designed in downtown Bartlesville, Oklahoma. The 19-story Price Tower, Wright’s tallest constructed project, was completed in 1956 when the architect was […]

So, I haven’t been this relaxed in a LONG time! We just returned from Los Cabos, Mexico, where we spent the last few days on the beach living the good life. This was our first visit to Mexico’s Baja Peninsula and we chose to stay in the quaint town of San Jose del Cabo at the […]
