Had so much fun on this quick trip up to Whistler, Canada, over Thanksgiving with our friends Taylor and Brent! We were only there for 3 full days and my 3 day itteriary was basically: Day 1: Shopping for snowboarding gear Day 2: Snowboarding Day 3: Recovering from Snowboarding I felt like I had been in a car crash lol 😅 but it was so worth it! It was only my 2nd time snowboarding and it was definitely a rough start and I spent more time on the ground floundering, however towards the end my last couple of runs went…
Done all with a tripod and 10 sec timer 🙂 LOCATION: Florence, OR sand dunes. HAPPY FOURTH EVERYONE! xo
What to See: So, I’m going to split this into parts because within Banff National Park there are kinda several different areas. The Banff area, the Lake Louise area, and Icefields Parkway. Plus, if you head up to Jasper (which if you do, you need to stay at least one night there) there are a bunch of things to see on the way. BANFF AREA: Lake Minniewanka (easy to get to, just drive up to it) Two Jack Lake (Right next to Lake Minniewanka, also super easy to get to, if you go to one you should go to the…
So we have been back from our trip for a couple of days now and Banff feels like such a dream and being engaged just feels unreal! We are so happy and so crazy excited to start planning our wedding! My Pinterest right now is just filled with wedding dresses🙈 haha. Well some of you are probably wondering or wanting more details about how we got engaged! Well on March, 8th (our 4th anniversary) I woke up to a bunch of the sweetest gift from him. He got me See’s candy, my favorite, and he wrote the sweetest things on…
LOTS OF EXCITING NEWS FOR THE NEW YEAR!! To start off your probably wondering what’s “Banff” all about if you haven’t already seen my latest Instagram post! Well for Christmas Nick surprised me with a trip to one of two places over our anniversary in early March: my favorite place I have ever been to and always talk about, Jackson Hole, WY, OR Banff, a place him and I always talk about going and will probably go again too on our honeymoon! Well for me it was an easy choice! BANFF! I am so excited about this new adventure and…
Where do I even start.. haha😅 Well we woke up at 3:00am and left around 4:00am and didn’t get back home till 3:30am the next day.. Honestly what were we thinking??? haha we weren’t, but we did make some amazing memories! Our first stop of the trip was Astoria, OR, and we timed it perfect for sunrise! Both Nick and I agree that it was the most beautiful sunrise we had ever seen! The water was like glass and the cotton candy sky glistened across the water and boats, and there were flocks of birds flying every which way! It…
WARNING: I get a little Philosophical in the post! If it’s not for you, no hard feelings!💗 I had this interesting thought the other day while in my Yoga teacher training about soul mates. We were on the topic of Reincarnation. Little note: for those of you who do not know Yoga is NOT a religion, its more of a way of life. Part of Yoga is actually practicing a religion outside of it. Reancartion is apart of religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism which are religions that were created around the same time as Yoga was, over 5,000 years ago…
Hi guys!! I wanted to try out a 12 things post! I’m not sure if this is a well known series that many bloggers do, or something that originally started with Amber Fillerup. Either way I am excited to see how it goes! I think its perfect for the times when I have a lot going on it life, but no ONE big topic that I could write a whole post about. Well first thing first, Nick and I kinda felt terrible that we completely forgot to take any photos of us with each other on our 3 year anniversary!!! UGH!…
     What a fun day spent! Painted hills is definitely such a little gem in the middle of no where! Although it took us around 5 hours to get there and about 5 back it was definitely worth it! Once there we literally sat in the same spot for about an hour waiting for clouds to go in front of the sun haha. Gosh we are such idiots haha!
DAY 1: Friday Woke up at God knows when and made our way to the airport. landed in Honolulu for a connecting flight and got on a hopper to KAUAI!!! Not much more happened the rest of the day other than getting there, getting our rental cars (2 of them to fit the whole fam! There are 9 of us!!!) We are staying in Princeville in a rental house! The house is honestly HUGE! I’m so excited for tomorrow because we are going to go the Queens Bath! We ate at The Dolphin. AMAZING fish and chips! The type of…
Ever since I was little my favorite holiday was always Independence Day! I can remember every year on my Mom’s birthday, June 28, fireworks would go on sale and all the white tents would start popping up around town. It always made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! I can also remember always wanting one of those stupid American Girl dolls which are on average $100, and my dad would always buy one of those big firework things for about $100 or more. You know the ones that shoot off like 50 to 100 fireworks at once🙄. And when…
