Art in the Time of Covid
There isn’t one person I know who’s life wasn’t completely upended by the Covid-19 pandemic. Whether it was the loss of a loved one, the loss of a job, the loss of a trip, or all of the above, people experienced a lot of loss in 2020. Many people had extra time on their hands… Continue reading

I Left My Heart in San Francisco
Last month, my husband and I celebrated two years of marriage with a trip (our first in over a year) to San Francisco. It was a lovely weekend full of adventure, good food, lots of walking, and excellent views. My favorite new discovery on the trip was the stunning Ina Coolbrith Park in Russian Hill.… Continue reading

Welcome, 2019!
Happy New Year! 2019 is here! I know I’m a day late posting about this, but I was soaking in my last full day with my fiancé before he had to go back to work. We had a wonderful last day of 2018 – we went for a 5 mile hike, got sushi for dinner,… Continue reading

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

Hello all! It’s been a few weeks since I’ve posted, because it’s been quite a busy two weeks – we traveled up to wine country for a birthday in the family, and last weekend I had the privilege of being my best friend’s maid of honor for her wedding. So eventful and busy, but we… Continue reading

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

Welcoming Autumn
Pumpkins, scarves, and falling leaves… oh my! Autumn is my favorite time of year, and for good reason – I am an Autumn baby, after all. My birthday isn’t until November, though, so we’re still focusing on Halloween festivities! This month, we’ve watched several Halloween movies, made pumpkin spice bread, drank Maple Pecan lattes, went… Continue reading

The Unofficial Start of Summer
Happy Memorial Day, everybody! The unofficial start of Summer is finally here! While many of us still work all summer, it’s nice to spend our weekends exploring, adventuring, and having a good time with friends and family. Sometimes we like to throw a bit of relaxation in there to change things up a bit, hehe.… Continue reading

Fall Wedding {OOTD}
A few weeks ago, I was honored to attend my boyfriend’s brother’s wedding. He was the best man, and as you can see, he looks mighty dapper (if I do say so myself). It was an outdoor wedding in Napa in November, so my first thoughts were cuteness, comfortability, and warmth! I bought the black… Continue reading

Summer’s Sunday {OOTD}
Ciao everyone and happy Monday! This week is bittersweet – it is my last week with the majority of my preschool students before I send them off to Kindergarten next week. Since I work in a small school, and it was brand new when I started, most of the kids I am sending off have… Continue reading
