Prague 2017

Tim and I kicked off 2017 exploring the city of Prague. Although it was a city that had not been on the top of our travel bucket list, I’m glad we found ourselves there because it was magical – like Narnia and Harry Potter magical. Read More

First Impressions

Nothing makes a person rethink her life choices like the water shutting off as she’s getting ready for her anniversary date…on a day that her hair really (really) needed to be washed.  That person is me.

Happy birthday, Abuela!

Today, I had a case of the grouchies. That is, I woke up on the wrong side of the bed. There was no blatant reason for my bad mood. Nothing big to throw me out of sorts. It was a series of small things: my sister treating my closet as if it were her own. […]

Twenty-Five + Two Days

On Saturday, I turned 25 and officially celebrated my quarter of a century of life with some close friends and family. It was lovely and many laughs were shared. At the turn of this quarter century, so many new things have been happening in my life. Sadly, the result has been that blogging has been somewhat abandoned. As depressing […]
