Welcome back! I am so excited to share pictures of our trip to the Grand Canyon with you. From the onset of planning this trip, I knew I wanted us to take a trip out there because I heard it was close (I thought it was much closer than it actually was, but we'll get to that...) and it is one of the seven wonders of the world! Plus, I kne[...]
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[...]
I am so excited for this post!!! It's been in my idea queue for awhile and I've been waiting to finally get to it. I know I've mentioned the group, known simply as Scripture Lullabies, on my blog before. They make exactly what they're named for—beautiful, melodic songs with lyrics that are Bible verses. They say they can be played for[...]
You guys, I could cry. I hate to start another post out with "ya I'm actually not dead just inexcusably BUSY" but almost a year later, here we are again. I would say a lot has happened, and for me it has, but mostly it's just college being college in that I really don't know what free time is anymore. No but in all seriousness, most of t[...]
I was so thankful I got to have my dream photoshoot this summer for my senior pictures. I’d dreamed for the longest time about getting professional pictures in the city and really being thoughtful about my clothes and vision so that the aesthetic would match that of my blog brand. I’ve always loved photography, so getting any pictures[...]
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[...]
