"Hold the vision, trust the process"
I absolutely love how festive and cheery NYC is during Christmas! When we came back after Thanksgiving, the whole city had transformed into holiday cheer. Our apartment building has a giant tree and so do most of the office buildings I walk by. It’s just so pretty! Last weekend Jon and I saw some of…

Welcome to our cheery apartment! The very first weekend of November I started decorating and it makes me so happy sitting on the couch with the tree on. Jon and I bought this tree last year from Michaels, and I’m pretty sure we were the first people in NYC to buy a tree last year.…
November was a crazy, busy, great month for me! I saw my family for a weekend, changed jobs, explored Savannah and Charleston, and spent Thanksgiving in Atlanta within a span of two weeks! I’m excited to be in NYC for a few weeks before all the Christmas travels begin. December is going to be a…
Hi Friends! I’ve finally got an apartment update for you all! It took us a while to figure out our furniture, and it’s such a relief to finally have everything delivered and settled. We started looking once we signed our lease for the new place, and it took about two months of online shopping and…
I know I say this every month, but October just flew by! The first half was a complete blur with my busy season, but the second half was great! I had a wonderful time in Boston and took some time off of work to recover. I’m so excited for all that’s to come the remainder…

I loved the brick streets and older buildings. We walked around in search for this famous picture spot with the Manhattan Bridge in the background. We…
Walking across the Brooklyn Bridge has been on my bucket list for some time now, and this weekend we finally did it! It was the perfect sunny, 70* day, and the fresh air felt amazing. It was a much-needed break from my busy season! We live very close to the Brooklyn Bridge (relatively) so we…

September was a crazy month! We moved, flew back to Michigan for a wedding, and I had my first big deadline at work, all in the span of two and a half weeks! October is going to be a great month for me with the end of busy season, and a fun trip in the…
On Saturday Jon and I went to our first concert together. We saw Ed Sheeran play at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey and it was absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend that you see one of his shows if you like his songs, he’s so talented! I wasn’t always a huge fan of Ed…
