life adventures and daily musings of a pair of high school sweethearts
On a trip back to Madison, Dillon and I drove right into a pretty nasty storm. We were safe, fortunately. But as the sky grew darker and the thunder rolled, it made me feel such anticipation. Ever since I was little, my Dad and my sisters and I would watch weather reports on TV in […]

We had been wishing and hoping to find a greenhouse near us for a while now. Soft natural light and a colorful backdrop- dreamy combo right there. We decided last Saturday to try one out. I saw it as we were driving by one day and had it tucked away in my back pocket for […]

Kell and I had been dying to put all of our new camping gear to use and what better way to do it than during a long holiday weekend. Leaving bright and early Saturday did just the trick to help us secure a spot. Getting in early turned out to be great as it allowed us to […]

It is June! Hooray! We just celebrated 5 months of marriage and are amazed at how fast the time flew. Lately, we found ourselves taking the camera with us and shooting footage, but didn’t quite have a place for it. We decided we will capture memories and edit them little bits at a time. Here […]

May in Wisconsin means potential for colder days. We embraced the chill and ventured out into the cloudiness recently. We spent some time at Picnic Point and had the place almost to ourselves- only a handful of people out on a day like that. The rain let up a bit, but the fog lingered across the […]

Easily one of my favorite parts about living in Madison- the farmers’ market. Finally, it has made its triumphant return for the 2017 season. Bring on the flowers, cheese curds, fresh veggies, and sourdough baguettes! I finally purchased these flowers that I’ve had my eye on. They are these beautiful dried flowers with some bold […]

We bought our Europe tickets almost 7 months before our trip. That was really our only solid, well-thought-out planning done for this adventure. The rest was crammed in a couple hours, just 2 weeks before the trip 🙂 Honestly though, once the plane tickets are purchased the rest just falls into place. We decided our […]

We loved our Airbnb in Amsterdam. This place was so cool. Our host had such great style. We stayed just out of the city center in a super rad area. Being mere minutes from all of the sites, while avoiding the touristy crowds was perfect for us. The comforts of home were just outside our […]
