Kayaking
The other day Dillon and I kicked the Sunday Scaries to the curb and decided to rent a tandem kayak for an afternoon. Together, we have only kayaked once before. Yet, we are both dying to put one on our registry. Our thoughts are if we get one, we would be more inclined to use…

Pope Farm Conservancy
Last Sunday, Dillon and I found ourselves driving around after some errands. We had the DJI and DSLR and weren’t quite ready to head back for the day. On a whim, I looked up how far away we were from the Pope Farm Conservancy. Our friend, Dan, mentioned that he had been there not long ago…

Camping Trip
Every year since I was about four or five my Dad has taken me on camping trips. It all started with our neighbors and dear friends who invited us years ago. We were hooked. We usually take at least two a year. A fall trip and a summer trip. Since being away for school and now…

Chicago
Since being engaged and planning a wedding back home in Illinois, it feels like we are weekend commuters. So many Fridays, D and I roll out of Madison and into Chicago late at night and make the return Sunday. Most of those trips are spent in the suburbs, which don’t get us wrong, we love.…

Pool Days
There are a number of things I love about my summer job as a nanny. Perhaps it is the daily adventures, or spending time outside, or just laughing with the kiddos. I’ve nannied for the past seven summers or so. While the weather is so nice, I try to spend most of our days outside…

Neutrals

I more often wear neutrals than crazy bright colors, so am I really trying to streamline my shopping. H&M and Target are absolute go to’s…

Fourth of July
This summer has just flown. Maybe it’s wedding planning, maybe it is just the post college life. But, the fourth just seemed to pop up this year. We had a busy start to our summer months, and I think now we have some relaxing weekends ahead of us. I’m hoping to crank out some more…

Getting Crafty
Kell and I are always saying one of these weekends we are going to sit at home, relax, and make craft cocktails. Does that ever happen? Well, no. Not until last weekend. Last weekend was Shake the Lake, Madison’s pre July 4th extravaganza. The night was filled with friends, food, live music, and an over-the-top firework…

Chicago Weekend
Just a short couple weeks ago D and I were back home in Chicago. Father’s Day rolled around and we found ourselves heading back home. As much as the struggle of driving there and back so frequently is insanely grueling, summer nights with family and friends makes it that much easier. The night was perfect.…

Save the Dates
