We are almost a month past the official start of summer and I’m still loving it. I’m usually sick of the heat by now but this year I still can’t get enough. I love walking outside in shorts and a t-shirt and feeling the sun on my skin. I do spend most of my days […]

It is finally here! Whether you are one of the lucky ones with a credit card or not, I have compiled a list of my top 9 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale picks. Sometimes the good stuff sells out early so I made sure to jump on the web last night to pick up the top three […]
Visit to the Columbus Zoo & Aquarium
For the first time this season, Chris and I headed to the Columbus Zoo & Aquarium with friends. The weather was beautiful (low 80s) and by some miracle it wasn’t overly crowded. I try to go to the zoo once in the summer and once in the winter but I try my best to avoid […]
Chambray Dress + Bandana // OOTD
As far as weekends go, this was a good one. As per usual, Chris and I spent quality time together shopping and working in the yard. We went a little outside of our normal shopping area and headed to Polaris. I was good and only picked up a few items from Sephora and even walked […]
July Goals
Reflecting back on my June goals, I didn’t get to everything I had hoped (like painting the bedroom or setting up the breezeway and patio) but I did make progress elsewhere. We painted the bulk of the front porch and did clear out the breezeway a bit and I am motivated to get some new […]
Favorite Face Masks // Current Skincare
I really love skincare. I can’t help it. For the last couple of years my interest in makeup has been dwindling and my love for skincare has take its place. Especially when my skin was really struggling, I started investing in my skincare products and trying different things that I wasn’t using before (ex: serums, […]
TJ + Dana // Couple’s Portrait Session
Happy Friday! This photo session was quite the honor. Chris and I have been friends with TJ since our school days and it’s been so nice to watch TJ and Dana’s relationship develop over the years. We were both lucky enough to be present when they got engaged (though Chris doesn’t remember thanks to his […]
Last Minute Father’s Day Gift Guide // 2017
I am super behind on this but whatever. Better late than never, right? I started thinking about putting together this Father’s Day Gift Guide but found myself struggling because this year is a tough one. As a marketing student, I was always aware of advertising during holidays like Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Christmas, etc. to […]
Eyelet & Denim // OOTD from Madewell
This weekend was a great balance of busy and not busy (my favorite). We slept in Saturday and it was wonderful knowing there was nowhere I needed to be. I had been waiting alllll week to watch La La Land so as soon as we were awake and had breakfast and coffee, we plopped down […]
Third Anniversary
Three years ago today I wore a white dress and met Chris under a large tree and promised to always love him and hold him in the highest regard. We dated for seven years before we were married but I still believe we have learned more about each other since. During our three years of […]
