Halston and I procrastinated in booking our road trip accommodations. When we finally sat down to book our Airbnb’s, I fell asleep on the dining room table and offered little to no help past the third booking. Which brings us to the Mod Lodge in Flagstaff, Arizona. The retro-styled, two-story home is actually the oldest… Read More Road Trippin’: Flagstaff
We last left off in Tucson, headed up to Phoenix… We arrived at our cozy, little Airbnb loft house that night, extremely exhausted and ferociously hungry. Luckily, The Main Ingredient was right around the corner. The cozy cafe in a converted house served beer, wine, soups and sandwiches. I enjoyed their delicious ‘Griddled Cheese’ sandwich… Read More Road Trippin’: Phoenix
I come to you from beneath my blankets, crawling out over a mountain of used tissues (I have a disgusting cold) and wearing a sleeping eye mask over one eye because it is sensitive to the light after my second iris iridotomy. Both procedures went well, praise the Lord, minus the fact that my right… Read More Road Trippin’: Tucson, Arizona
“We went to El Paso so that you wouldn’t have to,” my husband said. “That’s how you should start your blog.” With the Mexican border to my left and a drunk man punching a concrete wall to the right, I wasn’t sure what to make of El Paso when we arrived but we kind of had… Read More Road Trippin’: El Paso and New Mexico
Rise and shine, friends! I imagine you all spent your weekend doing the same thing I did — tuned in to the Olympics, screaming at athletes you didn’t even know existed up until this week, urging them to bring home the gold.

Our first stop on our great American road trip was Austin, Texas. You may recall that we initially planned to drive from Orlando to San Francisco, but… Read More Road Trippin’: Austin
A few weeks ago, my husband and I were faced with a unique situation: an entire Saturday, with absolutely zero plans! If you’ve ever had the rare chance to glimpse into my planner and Halston’s study schedule, you would have noticed that this almost never, ever happens. So we grabbed our bathing suits and headed out… Read More Kayaking with giraffes at the Brevard Zoo
“The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender or submission.” — John F. Kennedy … Raise your hand if you are dragging yourself to work today after enjoying a nice, long weekend. I have a case of the Mondays… Read More Memorial Day Weekend at the lake
Morning, y’all! Thank you for the outpouring of love and birthday wishes over the weekend. I’m thankful to have so many of you in my life! Halston and I spent the weekend at Hammock Beach Resort in Palm Coast because we badly needed a change of scenery and because I got overwhelmed at the thought of… Read More Birthday Weekend In Palm Coast
Happy Monday! It’s a brand new week for making terrible decisions! I hope you all had a lovely weekend celebrating the brave ladies that birthed you and still put up with you.
