Giving Thanks

Thanksgiving may be over this year (which I cannot believe I’m typing… where did 2018 go?! Like, seriously?!), but we do our best to practice thankfulness and gratefulness in our house year round. My fiancé and I do our best to always notice when the other is being particularly helpful and show our gratefulness. We Continue reading

Summer Sunshine {Solstice}

Last Thursday, for the Summer Solstice, I wore bright yellow and florals and after work, we headed to the beach! We brought dinner there, ate overlooking the ocean, dipped our toes in the freezing cold water, and walked in the sand and visited our jetty, where we touched the lighthouse for good luck! It was Continue reading

Spring in the Woods {Adventures}

This Easter, we went for a hike in Armstrong Woods State Park in Guerneville, California. It’s quite a gem tucked away in a small woodsy town on the Russian River in Sonoma County, about 30 minutes west of Santa Rosa. It’s truly a magical place; right when you enter the park, it is green and Continue reading

Wine Train {Adventure}

Hello all! Last weekend, my best friend had her bridal shower aboard the Napa Valley Wine Train, which was something neither of us had done before and it was so much fun. We woke up early, drove up to Napa, and made the train just in the nick of time! When we arrived in our Continue reading

So when we get the chance, we’ve been laying low and Continue reading

Greenhouse Wonderland

Last weekend, my love and I made the short trek up into San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park so we could go somewhere I hadn’t been since childhood: The Conservatory of Flowers. It was like stepping into a tropical greenhouse wonderland, and I am now even more obsessed with bringing more greenery into our little home. Continue reading

Love your Mother {Nature}

Summer is officially here and for me, that means getting outside and exploring any chance I get! Today, we took a little hike in the Forest of Nisene Marks in Aptos, California. It is so green and beautiful there, and it makes me feel peaceful and at one with the earth. My mom asked for Continue reading

Redwoods + Fern {Armstrong Woods}

Spotting ferns in the forest was exactly how I wanted to spend my weekend! We were up in the Santa Rosa area for Thanksgiving this year, so we popped by Guerneville’s Armstrong Woods in order to get in touch with nature. The view from our family home’s from porch was astonishing to look at with Continue reading

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! I decided there was no better place to wear it than at the Boardwalk, so I got all dressed up and we had Continue reading
