Eric Plus Ashley

It's here! It's here! Today I can finally share with you all the glorious details of Eric and I's wedding. The day was so perfect/fun/emotional/full of love that I barely know where to begin. I thought I'd share with you some of my thoughts on the whole thing, and of course many, many photos…

One Year In Charlotte

It’s officially been one year since Eric and I moved back to Charlotte! I can’t believe it, not sure where the time has gone. Eric says “it seems like it’s been much longer”, haha. Also, I seriously need to update my homepage. I’m not going to lie, I rea…

Honeymooning: Geneva

Geneva...what to say about you. To be honest, I wasn't a fan of this city. We ended up staying in an airbnb that was worse than my NC State Dorm room (yet still pricey), and went into a bit of shock at the cost of things. We needed a quick meal as soon as we arrived, so we stopped at McDonal…

Chickens!

If you haven't seen on Instagram already, our homestead grew a little larger last week. We now are parents to three baby chicks!  I knew I'd get chickens long before we even moved into our house. Eric's hesitant about letting me bring home animals knowing that I'm constantly teetering …

Honeymooning: Lyon

After Paris, Eric and I headed by train through the countryside to one of our favorite parts of the honeymoon. Nestled between two rivers with a huge castle-like church overlooking the city, Lyon is equal parts urban sprawl and charming fairytale town.  We stayed in an awesome airbnb. …

City Guide: Richmond

One of my close friends moved out of her Richmond home last week to embark on an adventure in Myanmar teaching English with her husband. Eric and I have been talking about how excited we are for them, but also how sad we are that we won't get to chat with her any time we want or take a day t…

Honeymooning: Paris Part III - the Catacombs

I can't believe it's almost been 2 months since Eric and I went here - where does the time go?? I have been itching to share these pictures from our trip to the Catacombs in Paris though, so I thought it was high time that I posted about our final day in Paris before we headed to Lyon. …

Honeymooning: Paris Part II - The Eiffel Tower!

This post is dedicated to our trip to that gorgeous Paris landmark. As soon as Eric was capable of walking, I drug him out into the rain so that we could go see tower. The area surrounding the Eiffel Tower is super crowded with tourists and people shoving metal souvenirs in your face to purc…

Tips for Traveling With Airbnb

Thought I’d break up my honeymoon posts a bit to talk about where exactly we stay on all these excursions of ours. If you haven’t noticed already, Eric and I LOVE to travel. One of the ways we’re able to travel so often is through Airbnb. If we are not staying with a friend…

Honeymooning: Paris Part I

I'm so pumped to start sharing some of our honeymoon with you guys! If you follow me on Instagram, you've already seen tidbits from the trip. There is SO. MUCH. MORE though. I think between the wedding and this trip, I've accumulated more photos this month than I ever have in my life. I'm lo…
