Like a Fine Wine

Friendships, like a fine wine, get better with age. Few things are as sweet as a good wine, a good friend and that Southern California sunset. It was the weekend I had been looking forward to for quiet some time- my friend, Brianna, was here to visit. As much as I love new friends, those…

thankful.

It’s that time of the year again- the time when we gather around the table with a glass of wine, some delicious food and of course, our closest friends and family. It’s the time of the year when we remind ourselves exactly why we are so blessed and for all the reasons we are thankful. As…

Viva Las Vegas!

“Holiday RoooOOOooooad…” the classic song echoed as Dave and I belted it out late Thursday night. Paired with some ridiculous dance moves, we packed for our own little Holiday Road over to Las Vegas. Our friends from New York would be there for World’s Toughest Mudder so we figured why not go? We never miss…

Yet, you aren’t quite up to the ‘I’m for sure an adult’ age of thirty. You are exactly in-between. You are a mid-twenty kind of adult, who spends most days pretending to…

Lord Huron: Strange Trails

Earlier in May, Dave and I went to see Lord Huron at the Observatory North Park in San Diego. They are currently touring for their sophomore album, Strange Trails. Psst.. You should probably go!  We had both seen the young band a few years ago when they opened for Dave Matthews Band at the Gorge.…

Sweet As Reunion.

There are some relationships and friendships that are just a little stronger, a little different and a little bit harder to explain. We call ourselves soul mate friends because quite honestly she is more than a friend- she is a soul mate. Kathleen and I met during a study abroad trip in New Zealand back…

let’s run wild.

I fall in love every time I board a plane or take a drive beyond the city limits. I love this world so much. I am in love with these places all around me- they capture me, draw me in and inspire me to want to be a person of worth. Recently, I found myself…
