Today marks four years of married life with my best friend – hurray! This year, Bobby and I decided to combine an anniversary and babymoon trip into one fall weekend getaway. After our adventures in Sedona toward the end of the season last year, we thought it would be fun to head north even earlier in hopes of catching a glimpse of […]

Happenings (viii)
1. I turned 27 back on May 9. Similar to last year, part of my birthday weekend was spent in St. Louis, where I had the chance to spend some time with my Grandma Gige. We attended an early afternoon showing of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, which was really good. I watched Ace Young’s […]
A Mountain Magical Weekend
Late last week, my mom and I had the chance to defend our title at the 2013 Mountain Magic golf tournament! This marks the third consecutive year that we’ve been partners (read 2011 and 2012 recaps here), and it was as fun, exhilarating and exhausting (in a good way) as ever. We arrived at the […]
House Hunters

Slightly Spicy Snoozy Saturday
It was so nice to be able to sleep in this morning! There wasn’t as much sleep to be had this past week but I’m finally feeling caught up and hopefully will no longer hit a wall at 3:00 p.m. Last night we stayed in to watch basketball, which also means we opened a bottle […]
Why I Love Living In The Big City
You all know how much I love Arizona. What I don’t often mention – because I take it for granted – is how much I love living in downtown Chicago. I am not a big city girl by nature. My personality lends itself to quieter, smaller towns, and that is certainly where Bobby and I […]
