November 13, 2024Categories New York46 Comments on Central Park Maternity Pictures

Hi friends, welcome back! I figured I would wrap up fall by sharing some of our Central Park Maternity pictures. I always had the vision of taking these pictures with all the pretty fall foliage and we got lucky with the leaves turning early this year. I was excited to make my vision a reality…

What’s Up: February 2024

February 28, 2024Categories New York36 Comments on What’s Up: February 2024

Hi friends, welcome back! Compared to January, February seemed to fly by. We had some brunches, participated in a delicious food tour, enjoyed the Super Bowl, and got a little bit of snow. Jon and I also spent a day exploring some potential neighborhoods in Connecticut. We just re-signed our lease through May 2025 so…

Hi friends, welcome back! We are officially done with our crazy busy summer! We kicked off September dancing the night away at Jon’s sister’s wedding in Atlanta.

June 5, 2023Categories New York26 Comments on Living in NYC – 5 Year Update

Hi friends, welcome back! I shared in my What’s Up post that May marked my five-year anniversary of living in NYC and I thought it was worthy of a separate post. Growing up in the suburbs of Michigan, NYC used to be the last place I ever pictured myself living, but now I can’t imagine…

Hi friends, welcome back! Not much is new this month. We’ve just been relaxing and going out to dinner or brunch with friends on the weekends. Once March Madness started I became one with the couch. We’re going to have another busy summer so it’s nice to just chill out. As much as we love…

October 26, 2022Categories Food, New York, Travel28 Comments on What’s Up: October 2022

Hi friends, welcome back! This month definitely did not go as planned. As soon as I posted my last What’s Up, I started to feel pretty sick and we had to cancel a weekend worth of fall plans and our much-anticipated trip to Shenandoah National Park. But as the saying goes, when one door closes…

Hi friends, welcome back! September was another busy month and flew by in the blink of an eye! We started the month in Europe, decorated for fall, had a great time in Atlanta celebrating Jon’s dad’s 60th birthday, went on a walking donut tour, and watched a lot of football. We are in full fall…

Hi friends, welcome back! I’m taking a quick break from my Paris series for my What’s Up monthly post. July was a very busy month! We started off spending the Fourth of July in Newport, Rhode Island touring the Gilded Age Mansions, eating delicious food, and partaking in the beautiful cliff walk. It was the…
