We did not waste that extra hour of evening daylight yesterday! My boyfriend and our friends Sarah and Jared trucked out to the Idaho desert with a small artillery. Zeb had just put a new Vortex scope on the pistol I'm holding in the picture below, so that was my favorite to shoot. I hit … Continue reading New Town vs. Old Town

"I'll learn it as I go" isn't exactly a strategy for success, but it does seem like the life motto of most millennials. We tend to go from Idea to Implementation without a full "Planning" stage in between. It feels like every other day, a friend is announcing something on social media. I think it's wonderful! … Continue reading There is no “Undo” button

Hey friends  🙂 I know a few days have passed already, but I have to write about last Friday night. My mom got 4 tickets to the hockey game, so Zeb and I met her and my dad for drinks and dinner right after work. I worked out and ate relatively healthy for the 6 … Continue reading The Never-Ending Happy Hour

*This is the blog post I worked on at the aiport BEFORE my little change of plans. So it's chronologically out of order but still something I wanted to post and share!* Saturday, February 2. 5:30pm. John Wayne Airport, Orange County, CA. Blogging in the airport has become an unexpected habit in this new year, … Continue reading Sippin’ Pretty

Forgive my sporadic posting schedule this week! My weekend travel didn't pan out as planned.... I can cross "spend the night in an airport terminal" off my bucket list! It was a loooong weekend, and all I wanted was my bed and my pillow when I got home. I slept for 14 hours yesterday, straight … Continue reading A Memorable Night in San Francisco

Today's blog post isn't anything profound, it's more a collection of journal entries from the past six days. It's been a simple week - nothing extravagant - but there were still little moments that I want to jot down to remember that made me smile! Like singing Shania Twain in the car bright and early Sunday … Continue reading Go With the Flow (but only if you have enough brake fluid)

It’s been a girlie week for me! Last we chatted was Monday after my “book club” (you’ll understand why I feel the need to use quotation marks if you read my last post haha). On Tuesday, two of my coworkers and I went to happy hour at a local wine bar that turned into a … Continue reading Sometimes you want creme brulee, and sometimes you want Jell-o

I already love to host parties and get togethers to begin with... but it's always a plus when you come away with leftover wine and desserts. Am I right!? Last night I hosted "book club" at my place, which is a glorified term for a bimonthly girl's night with some of the women that work … Continue reading Book Club Hostess

And just like that, I'm back in Idaho. Post-vacation blues are real. I came back into my corporate office job this morning to over 300 emails, an 8:30am meeting, and a 12:00pm deadline for a report. No such thing as "easing back into reality." I worked through my lunch (ran across the parking lot to … Continue reading My Winter Getaway

I'm blogging from a jet plane right now! My boyfriend and I are en route to a state I've never been to before. He'll be doing his annual flight training and I'll be hanging out with my high school cross country teammate! He's a commercial pilot and was automatically upgraded to first class. I'm 6 … Continue reading The Most Exclusive Bar in Town
