hi and hello.

It’s been so long since I’ve said hello.

So, hello!

Spring is really here it seems and with that I’ve been finding myself driving to work in the sunshine, blasting my country music as loud as it will go. Spring has a way of bringing pure joy with it, doesn’t it? Take today, for example. I was running later than usual to work, and there were no eggs left in the fridge, but bygonnit! It was sunny out! And about to be over 50 degrees! And so smiling was what I had to give and I gave it all I’ve got. I just love that.

We are ONE WEEK away from our west coast trip and I don’t think I could be more excited about it if I tried. Can you believe it’s here already? I can hardly. Give it to me, California. GIVE IT ALL TO ME. My list of things to do is longer than a ball of twine, and each day I add more and more. Whatever we do, whatever we see, I know I’ll just be thankful to be there experiencing it. I’ve been dreaming of this for SO SO long. When Zan and I were talking about it the other day, which we do most everyday, we realized that this is the first trip we’ve taken together in a long time. We went out to San Diego forever ago, and since then, only road trips here and there or family vacations. So, we’re excited about that! Traveling together is fun and I can’t wait to see the other side of the country with that guy by my side. He did warn me once not to take TOO MANY photos, but I told him I can’t promise anything like that. HELLO. :)

In other everyday news, tonight I’m eating tacos and adding clothes to my “vacation pile”, which also seems to be getting bigger by the minute. I’m planning to travel with just a carry-on, so I guess I have some work to do in that department. I ordered the weekender from Everlane, and hooray! I think it will be perfect. Also, the Sandlot’s on currently, so you can’t really beat that. ABC Family! It never lets me down.

forward to giving her a hug. ♥

  1. 1. I definitely watched the Sandlot last night (I still swoon over Benny, is that weird)?
    2. Windows down, country music way way up.
    3. So jealous of your trip to California, I hope you love my home state as much as I do. Plus I can’t wait to see your recommendations for me (I love touring my own home!)

  2. I feel the same way about spring! Every day is just happier knowing the sky is blue, the sun is shining, and I get to drive around with my windows down + the music up high. So excited for you as you anticipate your trip out west! Can’t wait to see all the gorgeous pics you take. And I don’t care what Zan says, PLEASE take too many because they will be amazing!

  3. I’ve been feeling the same way about spring! Sunglasses on, windows rolled down, country music blasting is where it’s at :) Have an AMAZING time in CA!

  4. life is good when the country music is blasting! and hooray for spring!

  5. yay for spring and yay for seeing your cute face last night. Hope for a real date soon. XOX

  6. so excited for you (and all the pictures you take!) and yay for you too taking a big trip together – I feel like a lot of getaways are for weekends for weddings or to see family on breaks, and really exploring with the one you love we forget is important (and so fun!) too. so yay for this trip and have a blast.

  7. Now I want tacos and to go with you on your California adventure.

  8. Hi hello wanted to pop by and say I miss you! That snap of the Brim Papery print is PERFECT, and yay yay yay for your west coast trip! Safe travels pretty!
