Miracle on 9th Street – NYC Pop-Up Christmas Bar
First things first, I can’t believe we are a week away from Christmas!! Second unbelievable thing is that his weekend Jon and I actually went to the BAR!

Christmas in New York City – Bryant Park & Rockefeller Trees
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…

Today I’m sharing the rest of my Savannah, Georgia trip! In case you missed it, you can check out my first day here. Our first morning in Savannah we went to the Little Duck Café for brunch and it was amazing! It was right next door to our hotel and I’d highly recommend it! It…

First Visit Back to Michigan: Part 1
It’s so weird to think that I’m visiting now when I come back home, but I was so excited to go back home to Michigan with Jon and celebrate the Fourth of July. I’ve been away for five weeks so far, the time has really flown by! We got up early and lifted before getting…
Our First Anniversary
Jon and I celebrated our one-year anniversary last Tuesday. He suggested that we make dinner together at the apartment so that we wouldn’t have to worry about other people sitting right on top of us. Sometimes it’s a little awkward how close the tables are at restaurants here, it’s like you’re on a double date….
