I’m inspired by quotes I read and love saving them so I can be reminded of them in the future.

december daily {1}

I would like to document the days leading up to Christmas. Ideally it will be some sort of a daily journal and it will be called my December Daily (#leasdecemberdaily on Instagram) A picture a day, a quote a day, whatever I fancy…the goal is to document something everyday for the whole month of December.

Our Engagement Story

On this day of love, I wanted to share with you one of the most romantic days in my life, the day the husband and I got engaged!! ************************************************************ Chris surprises me often with sweet gestures and small gifts, so I wasn’t shocked when he made a date for a romantic dinner that overlooked the […]

wardrobe capsule / week 7

Rainy Hike & Soup Recipe

I was excited to be outdoors again today. It has been a chilly week and I’ve been a hermit. I get cold easily so when Chris said he was feeling cold (he usually runs hot), you can bet that I was freezing. Ok, not really freezing. That’s just the drama queen coming out of me. […]

“Be Fit and Pain Free in 2011” event

SALONPAS is a pain patch with NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) medication you can put on your body for relief. So instead of taking an aspirin or ibuprofen, you can just put a […]
