Our second day in London turned out to be a hilarious one by day end, but we’ll get to that later. We hopped on the Tube in the morning and off to the Coca-Cola London Eye to see the city from a new angle.…
My first job ever was at KB Toys where I was hired a few days before my 16th birthday. I didn’t really need the job, because I didn’t have any bills at that point, so I usually put a small portion of my paycheck…
After two weeks of travel to incredible places, I landed in San Diego, exhausted after a couple horrible flights and ready to hop into my own bed. Tyler and Fox took the tram to get our car while I waited for our suitcases. When they…
Hi guys! I sucked you in with the picture of the donuts, didn’t I? This will be a super quick post to let you know two things: A) I am a featured contributor today on the World Market blog! See what I wrote here.…
Did anyone do that crazy Secret Santa gift exchange over Christmas that was going around Facebook? I did it with the notion that even if I didn’t receive anything in return I’d still be making someone’s day a little bit brighter, but I wound…
In case you haven’t heard, we’re firming up the remainder of our plans to visit England, Scotland, and Wales next month. We are renting a car and driving around as a family, stopping at the most incredible sights along the way. Seriously, just wait…

This morning my baby slept beside me for a full 1.5 hours. This may not seem like a big deal to you, but this meant everything to me. Since Fox was about two weeks old he has refused every cuddle and only wants to…
Disneyland has become like a second home for our family. Even though we live just over an hour away, we find that staying overnight has become part of our routine. The hotels are inexpensive, we don’t have to rush out of the house or try and…
Hello everyone! I’m writing from Buffalo, NY tonight after a fabulous holiday season filled with family, food, and fun. My family and I flew into Raleigh last week then road tripped to Washington, D.C. for the day, stayed in Pennsylvania, and arrived in Buffalo…
Yesterday Tyler and I took the day off and brought our guy to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. We’re pretty in love with this place! It was our first stop when Fox was finally old enough to leave the house and (in case…
Nashville had some big shoes to fill in this mind of mine. I envisioned a place with the best kind of food that tasted like it took days to cook, people who oozed good manners with “yes m’aam” and “yessir” rolling off their tongues,…
Hello everyone! Sorry for my brief absence. I turned 28 on Monday and took a little time for me and my family. We headed a tiny bit up the coast and spent two days at Disneyland! If you’re ever worried that you won’t hear…
My first trip overseas was off the cuff. In the middle of wedding planning, Tyler and I decided hop across the pond for a short trip to London and Paris in the spring. After several whirlwind days in London, we hopped on the Eurostar…
Happy Throwback Thursday! Before Fox was born, Tyler and I made it our mission to cast aside beach vacations and head straight for city centers. Japan was technically Tyler’s pick and while I was so very excited to go, I craved another European getaway…
