Thanksgiving Tag

November 24, 2016 by Emily Leave a Comment

Happy Thanksgiving, friends! I’ve seen some of my favorite blogger ladies do a Thanksgiving tag (Biana, Ashley, and Olya), so I figured I’d set aside the travel post I had planned for this week and participate! I love Thanksgiving and wanted to do some sort of Thanksgiving-themed post this week anyway, so this is perfect!… continue reading

Weekend Highlights (Thanksgiving Edition) // 04

December 1, 2014 by Emily 2 Comments

I know I’ve said it over and over on the blog already, but I had the best Thanksgiving week. This is more like a full week re-cap because Thanksgiving break started for us last Tuesday night. We drove out to Harpers Ferry that evening after work to meet my parents and brother. Immediately, the games… continue reading

Today I am thankful to be in a cozy cabin in the gorgeous mountains of Harpers Ferry, West Virginia with my family who traveled all the way up here to spend time with us. I’m thankful for a husband who has been with me every step of the way for the past three years of… continue reading

Texas: Home Sweet Home

January 8, 2014 by Emily 1 Comment

We had such a great time with our family and friends in Texas over the holidays! We were blessed to be able to spend two weeks there–which is about the minimum amount of time we need to see each of our immediate families, extended family, and just a handful of our friends. We typically make… continue reading

It’s Christmas Eve! I’ve decided this is my favorite day of the year. We have had such a great time visiting family, exchanging gifts, and eating great food.

I really wanted to have my Travel with Me – Seattle post ready for you today, but I’ve been busy traveling, working, and enjoying time with family here in Texas!

Christmas Movies

December 12, 2013 by Emily Leave a Comment

By the time the Christmas season ended last year, Daniel and I realized that we had not watched very many Christmas movies. This year, we wanted to change that. We’ve already gotten a great start! Now, I know many of you may not consider some of these to be Christmas movies, but I consider a… continue reading

Christmastime is Here!

December 10, 2013 by Emily 1 Comment

I’m very happy! It’s Christmastime, and we have decorated the apartment with all of our Christmas decorations. I took some pictures to share a little bit of our decorations with you. The pictures aren’t great, but the only working camera I have right now is my iPhone, so it will have to do!… continue reading

Our Thanksgiving

December 5, 2013 by Emily Leave a Comment

For Thanksgiving this year, Daniel and I packed up the car and drove down to the Nashville area to meet his family at a lake house they rented. For our trip there, we broke the driving up over two days with a stop in Knoxville to visit some of my family members. It was so… continue reading

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today I’m spending time celebrating Thanksgiving with Daniel’s family in a cabin outside of Nashville. We had to fight snowy weather to get here, but it was so worth it! I wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and safe travels. In the spirit of the holiday, I wanted to share ten things I am thankful for:… continue reading
