Travel is in our blood. My husband, Chip, & I met & started dating as wee little babes (see below) while studying abroad in Sevilla, Spain, even though we grew up 20 minutes from each other and had countless mutual friends in college. Our love began roaming the streets of Southern Spain & has taken […]

We’ve been planning & prepping & dreaming of our babymoon over here… and after much deliberation (and input from you all!) we are SO thrilled that we’ll officially be spending a week in Kauai, Hawaii in August! A week of beautiful sites, relaxation, beaches, hikes, & endless food sounds like the perfect final big adventure […]

It’s been nearly a year since our incredible family trip with the in-laws to London… 1. How is that even possible?! 2. Can I go back immediately? I figured it’s been far too long and is time to blog this amazing trip to share with you all! We truly dream of living in Europe for […]

This adventure still feels a bit like a dream. I think Paris is on most people’s bucket list… I had always heard amazing things and seen endless pictures from this most gorgeous city, but never really knew what to expect. In fact, the only way that we had any sort of plan for the week […]

Last week, Laura Foote, my dear friend came up from her Tampa, FL home to visit us here in Augusta, GA. She was not only in town for a week of adventure and rest, but she also was celebrating her first week of being a full time photographer! *Pops champagne!* Anyone in the creative world knows […]

The beauty of the coast never ceases to amaze me! This past weekend we celebrated my grandmother-in-law’s birthday in the area she grew up on St. Simons Island, GA. We had been talking about this trip for a while, but our schedules never all seemed to match up, until a change in plans opened a […]

Yesterday made us official Augustans. After many years of hearing of the glory of Augusta National and the Masters, and nearly 2 years of driving by the legendary course, Chip & I had the opportunity to attend Masters! Our dear friends, Chip’s co-resident and his wife, invited us to join them for the Drive, Chip […]

Like any good later 80s baby, when Harry Potter was first published, my afternoons and way past my bedtimes were spent perched on my bean bag chair next to my lava lamp with a Harry Potter book in hand. Over the years, as each subsequent book was released, I became more and more engrossed… until yearbook […]

Early last Saturday morning, Laura Barnes, the leader of the Atlanta, GA Rising Tide Society TuesdaysTogether group showed up at my house (with succulents in a RTS mug and pup treats for Sophie!) for us to hop on the road to Charleston, SC for the RTS Leaders Retreat. I had been anticipating this since it […]

This past week Chip & I adventured on the Royal Caribbean Vision of the Seas for a 7-night cruise to the Western Caribbean. This was the first vacation we have taken of just the two of us for more than a few days since our honeymoon nearly 4 years ago. While we love traveling with […]
