Happy Friday! This week has been a busy blur and I am looking forward to some down time. Andrew and I have a date planned for this weekend and a day full of relaxing to make up for constantly being on the go lately. Hopefully we can enjoy sometime together and maybe make a fun … Continue reading Living Lately No. 11
The older I get the more I think about the things I wish I would have taken more seriously in high school and college. Of course, some of these things are really "I wish I would have listened to my mom or taken her advice...". It may not seem like it at the time, but … Continue reading 4 Things I Wish I Took Seriously Before My Twenties
Andrew and I set out to take photos Sunday morning and we got off to a later start than I had hoped. By the time we got out to the lake it was already super hot and humid.

Each week one thing I know I can always look forward to is Sunday mornings. Sundays are one of the only days that Andrew and I get to spend time together for more than an hour or two.

Then as I packed my bags for Chicago I realized that every single item I … Continue reading Summer Red
As I'm sure many of you have plans to celebrate the Fourth of July tomorrow, be sure to take some time to give thanks and appreciate the true meaning of this holiday. Along with many other holidays I feel like The 4th is no longer celebrated for its true meaning. So I just want to take this … Continue reading Motivational Monday: Independence Day
