For the last two days of our honeymoon, Nick and I hit up Santa Rosa, San Francisco, and Berkeley. The whole goal of this trip was actually to make it to Santa Rosa, and go to Russian River Brewing, and it did not disappoint! Nick and I are huge beer people, we brew it with our…
Ok, chapter four! The fourth day of our road trip was mostly driving. The way that Nick and I made our very different road tripping styles work, was by compromising. On days with a lot of driving to get done, we followed Nick’s style. He is very destination oriented, and usually just wants to get…
Confession, I have been completely obsessed with the idea of making it out to Big Sur for the last two years. I saw a picture on Instagram of a place that had yurts set up on a cliff side overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and I was completely sold. Both, Nick and I had “must stop”…
Fun fact, I turn in to a little kid when I’m near the ocean. I love it, I love standing in the waves, and running away from them when they are higher than I expected. I love the sounds, the animals, and the feel of sand between my toes. This trip was so full of…
Our first stop on our honeymoon road trip through California was Joshua Tree National Park, and oh my gosh, Nick and I just fell in love with this place!

My bridal shower was this last weekend, and my future mother in law did an amazing job! I actually feel a little guilty, because my mom threw my fiancè and I a couple’s shower, and I didn’t make a special post or anything about it. Both showers were great though, nice and small, good food,…
One of my favorite things about Seattle summers is the Duck Dodge! Its a sailboat race that happens every Tuesday from May until September out on Lake Union. Its usually themed, and its followed by a giant raft up of all the sailboats for a giant boat party until we get the boot out of…
Ok, so I have to start this post off with an amazing story of heroism. My mom has a sailboat, and went on a trip out around Puget Sound this past week. I got a call from her on Friday saying that they were sailing around the Clinton ferry terminal, when they thought they…
