Between birthday celebrations, anniversaries, a wedding and just some good old R&R, I feel like I’ve been on the go more this summer and any summer prior. And I'm definitely not complaining about that. Travel is my passion. One of a unique places I visited this summer—Paris, Texas. It's a small town in Northeast Texas, about 2 hours from Dallas. …

Lately, I’ve been on the go a lot. Between weddings, anniversaries, family visits, it’s been awhile since I’ve had a quiet weekend at home. It was nice to not have any sort of plans or schedule this weekend and just play it by ear, exploring our own back yard. First up, Greenwood Urban Wetland Park. This beautiful oasis is plop in the middle of Downtown Orlando, but surprisingly quiet and peaceful. Thanks to the recent drought, water levels were surprisingly…
*Disclaimer: This blog post was written under the influence of pain mediciation, so I am not responsible for any grammatical or spelling errors. Last week at this time I was living life and now my claim to fame is getting out of bed on my own. May not seem like the biggest feat, but after the week I’ve had, it’s progress. This past week has taught me a lot of life lessons. When your body is in pain, listen…
It’s beginning to feel like fall and I’m craving pumpkin spice EVERYTHING, and comfort food. What is it about the change in weather and early sunsets that make us crave warm, savory foods? This recipe is just that, as well as absolutely delicious and healthy. But the best part of all, it’s simple and easy to make.…
I know I am centuries late to this one, but I am obsessed with Ryan Adams 1989 album. Not only are the acoustic melodies mesmerizing and the vocals soothing, but it is an exact cover of Taylor Swift’s 1989 album, just with a Ryan Adams spin.

The time has come, I am finally taking a much needed vacation to Lexington, Kentucky with my fiancé. It will give us a chance to spend some quality time together as well as disconnect from the world, something we both have a very hard time doing. He is guilty of checking emails and answering client phone calls after hours whereas I also have this issue, but my greater problem is social media. I’ll admit it; I think I am addicted…
We have officially made it to March! How many of you have kept on course with your New Year’s resolutions? I have to say that I am pretty proud of myself this year. I am usually the one, who by the second week of January, has already thrown my resolutions out the window, but not this year. I made 3 big resolutions (goals) for myself. 1. Stick to an Exercise Routine 2. De-Clutter (throw things away) 3. Plan my wedding…
The other night I was in bed, trying to fall asleep. There are just some nights I can’t seem to get to sleep because I’m either thinking about my day or about all the things I have to accomplish the next day. To distract myself from my own thoughts, I decided to read some blogs until I fell asleep. Perfect strategy because two posts I read truly inspired me. One post was a list of ways to be a happier…
