Boardwalk Nights {OOTD}
Recently, there was an antique faire downtown and I found the cutest little number for only $10! It’s vintage, Hawaiian, and covered in two of my favorite things: pineapples and palm leaves!

Vernal Falls {Yosemite Adventures}
This past weekend, my love and I visited one of our favorite places: Yosemite National Park. We love to be in nature, to hike, to roam, to wander. We especially enjoy exploring new parts of the park, and that’s what we did – neither of us had seen Vernal Falls before, so we decided to… Continue reading

Yosemite {Adventures}
During my Spring Break, my love and I headed up into Yosemite to check off another item on my 101 in 1001 list: “#71 Hike in Yosemite again,” and it was absolutely breathtaking. We went last year for mister’s first trip to Yosemite, but it was during full-drought-mode. This time, there was still snowpack… Continue reading

Arboretum {Adventures}
Last Saturday, we went to the UCSC Arboretum to explore and see some new plants we may not have discovered elsewhere – the majority of their plants are native to Australia! I so admire the look of Eucalyptus bark – I know Eucalyptus was an intruder species, but it is so beautiful and calming. Its… Continue reading
