Seven Years!

We celebrated our seventh anniversary yesterday. Just seven short years ago, high school Dillon asked me to be his girlfriend. And the rest is history. Lot’s of things happen to a person in seven years. Especially from high school to post college. Wow. We both have done so many things, and grown up so much.…

Market Day

This past weekend, both of our parents came up for the day! The weather actually panned out for us, and we spent much of our day outside. Since we are so close to the Dane County Farmers’ Market, we decided to walk around there. As it is the beginning of June, it was the kick…

Apartment DIY’s

Bullet Journal

It is a mix of hand lettered to-do lists, calendars, notes, correspondence, trackers, organizers, reflective journal, and catch all for life’s daily busyness. I really liked how I could customize the pages to my working and ongoing needs, while serving as a place for…

Bridesmaid Proposal

A number of weeks ago, Dillon helped me get my bridesmaid proposal boxes in order. With Pinterest on my side, I wasn’t short of ideas. D and I love creating things. DIY projects, photos, videos, dinners, our save the dates, you name it! So having his visual brain helped big time as I put the boxes…

Wedding Dress Shopping

Been working hard to say yes to the dress these past few months. Sometimes it is overwhelming to try on dress after dress, but I’ll tell ya, those stylists sure make me feel like a million bucks. I had a fantastic stylist at Nordstrom who really made me feel comfortable and confident in all of…
