as you can see, there have been some exciting changes around here. it has been a long road, but finally completing my branding seemed like a road that was never going to end. i started thinking about this process over a year ago… and was completely overwhelmed with what i should do vs. what i […]

lattes and the smell of a new book. there are few things better than this feeling. in following my goals for this year, i’ve started The Hunger Games series, and i’ve succesfully read the first two books in the last 12 days. like i have mentioned, i have a love for books and always am looking […]

i felt if i didn’t share this with everyone, i would be doing a disservice to you all. please take the minute to watch- i promise you won’t be dissapointed. completely and utterly inspiring. and a little reminder of just how small we are in this world.

this time next month i will be packing my bags, grabbing my passport, and be only days away from being with my husband here :: (source) bali, indonesia. i still have trouble saying it out loud cause i can’t believe it’s actually happening. elephant rides, balinese cooking classes, monkeys, and lots of beach time are […]
