Welcome to part two of my Las Vegas series! I'm not going to spend a lot of time blabbing before we dive right into it because I'm already so embarrassed by how long these posts are, even with being divided up, and how long even my social media captions are. 🥲 I don't know how I evolved from writing four paragraphs and calling it a da[...]
I am so excited to write this recap of my girl's trip to THE CITY OF SIN!!! I write it that way for ironic reasons, of course. I've got a lot of explaining to do with this one, and I am going to warn you right off the bat that this post will be a book—or it originally was going to be. Ha, I know, when aren't they, but I think I've been[...]
Despite feelings of sadness that arose upon having to leave Calgary, I was also feeling a sense of excitement and curiosity at what was to come—a mindset this trip instilled in me for not only our actual vacation, but about life in general. As I go into recapping these last few exciting days of our trip—where we were surprised and exc[...]
This was the day of my trip that made my dreams come true. That may be a little dramatic but not really because I have been dying to see real skyscrapers since I’m pretty sure the BUILDINGS in Des Moines don’t classify as that. As Calgary was our main destination on this trip, I was thrilled to finally start exploring all this big cit[...]
Seeing mountains for the first time is hard to take in at first. That’s what the next two days of our trip mainly consisted of, but we were also blessed to be staying at this nice hotel with an awesome rooftop hot tub. And, on these couple days, we ran into a couple problems along the way, but they got resolved thanks to God. This post[...]
Simply amazing, is how I would describe what was already a week ago. Already over a week ago, I got home from a fun, mostly easygoing road trip with my mom, cousin Kirsten, and my aunt Corrine. They are lots of fun to be with, and Kirsten and Corrine are basically travel agents, and they scored us some amazing deals on hotels as well as f[...]
Long time with no writing! I was hoping to update my blog as much as possible over my vacation spent with family when my parents went to Canada, but we got to be so busy that it made it a lot harder. But I took tons of pictures, so I'm thrilled to recap this now! I got home yesterday and just finished unpacking a little bit ago (as of 3:4[...]
Life is all about perspective. And it's funny to see how one thing could mean the world to somebody and then to somebody else mean nothing. Because it's all about how you see certain things. A prime example of this is the small town my grandparents live in. To so many people it's just a town, and many times not a good town, but to me, i[...]
This will be the LAST post (first post and second post) over our trip to Canada :( It was a lot of fun! We'll be going back again sometime, though! For the last few days, I have some FUN things to tell you about based on the post title... The next day it was raining, and we decided to go to a nearby town and check it out. We hoped to[...]
