While this past year has it's challenges, looking back it's given me nothing but great opportunities. I was very lucky to have the ability to travel A LOT, move closer to family, push myself in new ways, spend time with old and new friends, add another furry child to our family, and s…

I cannot believe we only have one day left of 2014. Not sure if it was all the traveling, busyness, or many new life changes, but this year flew by. While I know I've accomplished a lot in one year, I thought it would be good to check in with my 2014 resolutions and see exactly how I did. Un…

I've been taking a little holiday break from the blog trying to get lots of posts ready for the end of the year and spend time with family and friends. In the mean time, thought you'd all enjoy some pictures I took of Bella last December :)

Between traveling to Dallas and LA a few weeks ago, Eric and I took a quick trip to to NYC for a long overdue visit to our friends Nicole and Paul. From the moment we arrived, we essentially started eating our way through the city - one of our favorite activities! Our first stop was Smorgas…

I've already showed off Eric and I's engagement video, but there's something fabulous about photos isn't there? Amanda shot some stills of us while we were creating the video, and I am so excited about them! Here's a few of my favorite shots from our car and picnic scene. More engagement pho…
