25.
Today is my 25th birthday! Hooray— a quarter century! I’m spending my birthday driving for 11-12 hours to San Diego to see Brighton’s brother, Chase in sunny California.

6 Months into Marriage & Life Updates [Newlywed 101]
Happy Fall, ya’ll! Well, I guess fall is mostly over, but still look at those colors! I’ve been quiet on here recently- I’ve been super busy with photography and doctor’s appointments… Two weeks ago, I sliced my tendon on my left index finger. Two stitches, 3 doctors visits (so far), and 2 splints later… I’ll […]

Goodbye Lucille, Hello Adventure-Mobile

3 Months into Marriage [Newlywed 101]
