Have you ever been to a campfire alone? Of course not, it’s meant to be shared with the ones that you love, singing and dancing – it’s a celebration. It’s a warm “togetherness” of sharing stories, testimonies, and songs. It’s a safe place to share and to be freely loved. It’s a place filled with laughter, the sweetness of chocolate and marshmallows and the gift of friendship.

Woah, Today, Thomas and I have been married for one whole year. It’s been a year full of fun, adventures, traveling, moving, graduating, and so much more! Through it all, we’ve learned a few key pieces that we use practically almost everyday. Out of a spirit of vulnerability, we wanted to share those with you all because no marriage is perfect but there’s so much we can share with one another.

Not sure about y’all but my skin is porcelain – like, the name of my tint color for makeup is “translucent.” When it comes to sun protection, I need all hands on deck: baseball caps, sunscreen, reapplication after reapplication. Let’s be honest, that’s not always practical (or cute) so I’ve found my solution: the summer brim hat. I’m loving it!

I’m answering some frequently asked questions on the blog today that you guys asked! If you have another, just comment it below and I’ll get back to ya in a jiffy!

Mother’s Day is right around the corner and I think this is the perfect time to say “thank you so much” by giving her a gift she wants but doesn’t know she needs. What are we suppose to get a mom that always seems to have everything?? At least, it feels like my mom does. Gift giving for her is always a tough task but I did some thinking and asking around and I think these would all be a “win.” I linked these products with Amazon so that if you have a membership (or if you don’t, sign up) you can get free 2 day shipping to get this if you’ve procrastinated this whole gift thing!

That place that you’ve been for the past 4 (or maybe 5 years), the one that holds frustration, happiness, excitement and anticipation, the place where you met your best friends and maybe even fell in love, the place that you became your true self, messed up a few times to learn a few new things, […]

Exam week can be super stressful – it always was for me! But, I’ve found that these products and tips have come in handy the past few times that I’ve been in need of some care and stress relievin’.  I’ve linked some of my favorite items and you can shop them from here! They’re all linked with Amazon prime so if you need it in a hurry, you can get 2 – day shipping! Plus, if you’re a student, you get a discount on Amazon Prime that is too good to pass up!

I expected the Grand Canyon to make me feel so small, so insignificant, so microscopic compared to this Canyon, itself. In reality, I felt strong, valuable and significant when this thought overwhelmed me: even after all of this was created, God didn’t see the Earth “complete” or “beautiful enough” without me + you.

What the heck is a blog content shoot? If you’re not a photographer, you probably struggle to find pictures to go along with your blog posts…

I never knew these existed until I was taking a picture of something random every time I went to post a blog. I learned quickly that each blog post should have at least one picture but dang, I was getting tired of my self-timer on my camera and awkwardly posing for me, myself and I.
