My Year of Travel

Between the 2011 and 2012 academic year, I have planned several amazing trips to see several amazing people...let the blogging around the country begin!

First Stop: The East Coast!



In Times Square Waiting for the Lion King to Start!



My 24th birthday (and Golden Birthday) was on Thanksgiving--so we celebrated at the Macy's Parade!

Valentines Day--Not Just for Couples!

I LOVE VALENTINES DAY! Even when I have been single on Valentines day, I have always enjoyed having a day to show everyone how much they are loved! Of course there are the nay-sayers who put me down each year and call it "Singles Awareness Day" or something of the like... but I say, GET OVER IT! They too will be Valentines of someone special soon enough, and until then, share the love!

This Valentines day, I decided to focus my energy on showing some love to my friends and family. And since my wonderful boyfriend is 8+ hours away, it was the perfect time to celebrate everyone who is close to me! I made up little gift packages for my friends, sent my far away friend in Utah a nice dress, and sent my boyfriend a manila envelope full of sweet treats!

And let's not forget the super-girly inspired fashion! I anticipate wearing pink dresses, floral prints, red high heels and lots of lipstick and ruche every sweethearts day. Having an excuse to dress like a little girl in curls and pearls is always a good thing!

Ah....pinterest (con't)

Ok so last time I was discussing my pinterest projects...but like always, holidays come, I get busy and everything else falls to the backburner!

A few projects I did complete...

Re-Vamped my chalkboard!

Successfully mastered the inside-out giant braid. Love.

Decorated my teeny-tiny tree :)

Made about 1,000 pieces of white chocolate peppermint bark! (a family fav)



Well this is it for now... I realized pictures are where it's at because, they are worth a thousand words, right?! See... still doing things for the write reason. Love to all!

Coming soon to my blog...
