This weekend was such a fun one, although it did not start out that way. Josh got really sick on Thursday with what we’re now guessing was a stomach bug. He was feeling so bad Thursday night I took off work on Friday so he wouldn’t be home alone in case he got worse. We… [Read More]
Christmas Eve
It’s the day before Christmas! I’m working today but getting out early and heading over to Christmas Eve dinner at Molly’s parents house with Josh. I can’t wait! Recently I’ve discovered that alpaca wool is the softest thing ever. Josh and I went out to see carolers the other night, and after we found out… [Read More]
Visiting Miracle on Farnam
Gosh I love living in Omaha. It’s so fun to see a town get so excited about holidays and events. Last night Josh and I explored Midtown Crossing’s Miracle on Farnam. We’ve been driving by the beautiful light display for weeks and decided it was finally time to go explore it. The weather was perfect,… [Read More]
Ugly Sweater Run Omaha 5k Recap
This weekend Josh and I ran the Ugly Sweater Run 5k around downtown Omaha. It was cold, it was packed, and it was absolutely awesome. There were over 3,000 racers dressed up in their ugliest sweaters. It was 20 degrees and Christmas music was blasting. We had no idea what the experience would be like… [Read More]
A fun filled December weekend
Every weekend I plan to sit around and do nothing but watch Bravo shows in my pjs. I love the simple things in life. ;p And without fail, every weekend I find myself with a jam packed schedule. As relaxing as following along with the latest Housewife drama can be, I feel so grateful for… [Read More]
Visiting Narnia
Was anyone else a total bookworm growing up? The library was my favorite place to spend time and I often found myself curled up with a book in the children’s section getting lost in a fictional world. I’ve always been a dreamer and longed for a grand adventure and an epic romance. Adult me feels… [Read More]
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
I can’t believe Thanksgiving is over! The holidays sure do fly. I hope your Thanksgiving was a special one. I celebrated mine with my favorite guy and our friends Molly, Brian, and their family. Molly was so kind to invite us over to her parents house for Thanksgiving. We aren’t traveling home for the holidays… [Read More]
Celebrating the Holidays with Whole Foods
Growing up, my family would always get together for the holidays and celebrate with big meals. I’d drink apple cider and try and steal some pumpkin pie while getting shooed from the kitchen and told to go help set the table. I look back on all those memories fondly, even the year my dad tried… [Read More]
My First Friendsgiving
This past weekend Joanna and Jeff invited Josh and me to our first Friendsgiving! Being new to town, it means so much to have friends that include us in their holiday traditions. I’ve always wanted to go to a Friendsgiving, so I was really looking forward to this. It was a potluck so Josh and… [Read More]
Celebrating Three Years (with a giveaway!)
Now that we’re married, a lot of people would say our dating anniversary doesn’t really matter. But our first date was also the first time we ever met. (Online dating for the win!) So what may seem like a small event to some people now that we’re husband and wife is still pretty huge to… [Read More]
Come get pampered at Garbo’s with Wella and Elle Magazine
When I first told people I was moving to Omaha I got a lot of questions like, “But what will you do there?” Or, “But won’t you be so bored?” I laugh at this now because Josh and I have never been so busy, and have never had so many things on our social calendar… [Read More]
