Jamaica Is For Lovers
Who knew one year of marriage would fly by? Although we had our official one year anniversary in March, we were able to finally celebrate last week. We are huge fans of the "all inclusive" concept. It's just so easy. We went to Sandals St. Lucia for our honeymoon and LOVED every second. We knew we wanted a similar experience. We decided to try out Jamaica. Neither of us have ventured to that part of the Caribbean so it was a new and exciting experience for both of us. This week I will be sharing more pictures of our trip...stay tuned!

SHOP THE POST
Happy Monday everyone! I am pretty pumped this morning because the hubs and I are off to Jamaica to celebrate our 1 year anniversary. Hello, beach! We are so excited to have our toes in the sand and a fruity drink in hand. I've put together a little list of fun beach must haves that will be accompanying me on our trip...and some that would just be nice to have! These GOLD & GRAY tassel bracelets are a must must must!
Since we will be out of the country, I will be taking a little break from this little blog. However, you can follow along via instagram to see more of my trip! I hope you all have a great week and thanks for stopping by! ...
#guzburger wedding
This past weekend I was able to celebrate the nuptials of April and Odie Guzman. What a beautiful couple and wonderful wedding! Here are some snapshots of this great day! Enjoy!! xx
Chris & Christina Get Married
I am a little late to posting these, but they are too lovely not to share. Over Memorial Day weekend we flew to San Francisco to attend our friends wedding. Yay, Chris and Christina! This was such a beautiful beach wedding. I couldn't get over the weather. It was beyond perfect. I guess when you live in a beautiful place like this with ZERO percent humidity, it's crazy to not have an outdoor wedding. You can pretty much bank on a gorgeous day. The venue was at an adorable bed and breakfast that over looked the beach. Not bad right? Here are some pictures of the rehearsal dinner and wedding! (Do) Enjoy!!
Domaine Carneros
If only I could click my heels three times and be in Napa again. Last week, Amy, Ashley and I spent the afternoon at the most beautiful winery, Domaine Carneros. We enjoyed sipping on all kinds of champagne while the boys spent their time bachelor partying in Muir Woods. This place was all kinds of gorgeous and one of my favorite wineries yet! I mean how hard can it be to spend the afternoon in an 18th century château? Until next time...

Keep Calm & Carry On
You know how tax season is crazy busy for CPA's? Well, consider this my tax season. As a teacher, I so look forward to the end of the year. School is coming to an end and summer is calling my name. However, there is much to be done before all of that can actually happen. And in the midst of this craziness , this poor little blog gets set aside. Hence why it's Wednesday and I am finally getting some time to post. While this week is a busy one, it's also a short and exciting one! Two of my friends are getting married on Saturday and a whole group of us are flying out to San Francisco on Thursday to celebrate the occasion. With that being said, I am scrambling to pack some Nappa Valley, Union Square, Monterey Bay appropriate attire. I figure I would hit the easy stuff first- my carry on. These are the things I absolutely can't travel without! And yes, gummy bears is a must. Enjoy!!

Chicago Trip | Girls Weekend
I am so excited to share these pictures with all of you. I love to document little moments in life but I get really excited about a special occasion such as this. Last weekend my besties and I traveled to Chicago to surprise our dear friend April with a bachelorette party weekend. She was so surprised. I mean we are from Dallas, Little Rock and Houston...so she was shocked. Our plan was to surprise her in the hotel lobby, then take her to the room for a lingerie shower then a night on the town. We had the whole room decorated with bachelorette cookies, games, a photo booth, and of course... lingerie! We had a blast showering her with all kinds of goodies for her upcoming wedding. When Saturday came, we spent the day being tourist. We figured if we were going to make the trip to Chicago, why not make a whole weekend out of it? It was such a fun weekend to spend with good friends. Only a couple more months till the big day!

One year ago I married my best friend. Looking back on these pictures brings tears to my eyes. It was such a perfect day. I think about all of our family and friends who celebrated with us and it truly seems magical. This year has taught me many things. One of those being that cereal is not considered a dinner option...and the importance of organizing my 17 bottles of hair products neatly. But nonetheless, I didn't know life could be so great being married to Austin. I am so thankful for the memories this year has brought and I look forward to what year two of marriage brings for us.

Do In Dallas | Klyde Warren Park
Happy Tuesday friends! I hope your week is off to a great start....I am back to the ole job his week so I am having major withdrawals of sipping coffee, blog reading, and catching up on KKTM. When I was thinking about what to post this morning, I figured I'd brag about this amazing weather we are having down in Dallas. Side Note: We never get to have California weather so I get to be excited when I can. This past weekend the hubs and I decided to take our afternoon outside and enjoy Klyde Warren Park park in Dallas. It is literally sandwiched between a major freeway and right smack dab in the heart of Dallas. The park has a little bit of everything. A huge playground for the kiddos, a dog park for the frenchies pups, and a long line of food trucks just waiting to feed your appetites (I waiting 45 minutes just for a hot dog...worth it). Word on the street is they are even building an outdoor skating rink...so exciting for us Dallas peeps. It's no Central Park, but it suit us Dallas folk just fine.
