Friday Night Flights: Sangria Tapas Restaurant Review
I’m not sure about you, but with summer coming to an end I am craving EVERY kind of food imaginable. I think my body is thriving on the last warms days we have left and taking full advantage of going out to eat at restaurant patios every chance I get. It sure is making my life expensive but extremely tasteful. My good friend came across a restaurant called “Sangria Tapas Restaurant” in Mahwah, NJ and they had me at “Sangria” and “Tapas.” I LOVE sangria. To me it’s the perfect summer sipping drink. I also love to share food so Sangria and Tapas honestly sounded like a match made in…

Anna Maria Island, FL
Hi all! So excited to tell you all about this trip! For Thanksgiving my family and I went to Anna Maria Island, FL. John and I headed on a 17 hour road trip to bring the pups….YES….we drove 17 hours just to bring the pups with us. It was exhausting. I know Thanksgiving, November 2019, was SO long ago but what better time than now to post this and relive all the beautiful moments we had before the devastating COVID struck our world! I hope everyone finds enjoyment out of this post during such a crazy time. Just as an FYI this post probably has the most photos I have…

Wedding Wednesday #4 – My Bridal Shower!
I curled my hair, clipped pieces back, painted make up on my face, and then slipped into my white dress for my Bridal Shower. This was the first true moment everything hit me. I was getting married in less than 2 months. I stood there, staring at myself in the mirror, so beyond blessed to be celebrating a day between the love of my life and myself. There was no one better to share this special day with than all my friends and family. I have never felt so loved before. Get ready to be splurged of all the cutest and thoughtful pictures of that day. I am so happy…

West Coast Road Trip: Finale-Part 6 – Oregon!
Hi guys I can’t believe we’re at the final stretch! This is the last post of our West Coast Road Trip and I am sad to see it end. This trip was a once in a lifetime whirlwind and we had the best time. I think something I took away from this whole experience was being able to spend 2 full weeks in a car with John and not having fights or disagreements. We truly are great travel companions and I think that is so important to have, especially since we LOVE to travel. With that being said, let’s jump right into it! After the Redwood National and State Parks…

West Coast Road Trip: Part 5 – California!
Hey guys! This is my second to last post for the West Coast Road Trip. I can’t believe we’re almost done. Sharing these memories and tips with you all has made me truly relive the experience and miss it so much. It was such a beautiful experience and I am so happy to say I took this adventure. After we left Las Vegas we headed off to California! I was so excited because we took a quick detour on the way to San Diego, CA to meet John’s grandparents. It was my first time meeting them and it was such a pleasure! They took us out to lunch and we…

West Coast Road Trip: Part 2 – The Grand Canyon
My sincerest apologies for such a long delay! Summer just zoomed on by but I am so excited to be telling you all about part 2 of our West Coast Road Trip. To see our first part of this road trip click here. After we left Sedona, AZ we headed off to our airbnb which was a community of yurts. How cool and unique is that?! Clearly we’re outdoor people. The link to our airbnb can be found here. This location is hidden away so they give you very thorough instructions written out to help guide you to their exact location. I definitely recommend at least checking into the sight…

West Coast Road Trip: Part 1 – Sedona, Arizona
Hi all! John and I had been planning a road trip across the West Coast for over half a year now and we finally were able to take this trip. It was truly amazing! We spent 2 full weeks driving from Arizona, to Utah, to Nevada, to California, and then finished our trip in Oregon. A vacation was just what we both needed and was my first vacation in about 4 years. It was an experience of a lifetime. This is the first part of a series of posts I will be writing about this trip. I had to write multiple posts for this trip as 1 blog post would…

Review: Rehoboth Beach & Dewey Beach, Delaware
Hi all! I just spent the weekend in Rehoboth Beach, DE and it was a great way to spend time with John and our dog Mia. This location is an extremely dog friendly place to visit which was great for us! We stayed at “Atlantic Oceanside Resort“, 1700 Coastal Hwy, Dewey Beach, DE 19971. If your a dog parent like me this was an extremely dog friendly hotel to stay at. Everyone had their pooches with them! They had an upstairs balcony with chairs and tables, free breakfast (love free things!), a pool, a gym, and a dog friendly beach only feet away (About a 30 second walk). The only…

Review: Mt. Fuji Japanese Steakhouse
Recently I went to “Mt. Fuji Japanese Steakhouse” located at 296 NY-17, Hillburn, NY 10931 for my best friend’s birthday. It’s a beautiful restaurant way up in the hilltops of New York. This venue is specifically known for their Hibachi and is on the expensive side. Seeing as how unique their views are you can understand you’re not only paying for the food/experience but the view/location. Additionally, you will need to make a reservation as this is a very popular restaurant and tables fill up quick! For best results I would try to call a week in advance. We called a week in advance and the only tables available on…

DIY: How To Make A Bunny Cake
Hi all! I know I’m a day late with Easter being yesterday but I just HAD to share this “how to” bunny cake. I mean you don’t just have to make this cake on Easter but if that’s your goal definitely favorite this page in your bookmarks for next year! For those of you who do not know me well, I love baking. I love making cakes, cupcakes, etc and decorating them. I was an art major in college so I guess this helped lead me to discovering I could use my baking abilities, along with my creative talents, to make deliciously fun food! Before making this cake I would…
