If you follow me on Instagram, you probably noticed that we took a sudden, six-day-long road trip across the country last week. Surprise… we’re back in Minnesota, permanently this time! I couldn’t tell you until now because of reasons related to Eric’s work, but everything’s finally ironed out. We’re currently at my mom’s house and moving into our new apartment this weekend.… Read More »
Missing the Woods
Hey, you! I’m still here. The past month has been very busy with travel, a new job, making holiday plans and working on our wedding, but I’m going to try to make an effort to write more regularly.

I posted a picture on Instagram, but in case you missed it, we drove eight hours round-trip to hike in Yosemite and it was totally worth it.
Today, I thought I’d recap our trip and give you our suggestions for sightseeing and hiking in the park! We’ll definitely be back as Yosemite is huge and we hardly saw anything overall–and I’d love to camp next time–but I really loved the trail we picked yesterday, so I thought I’d share :)… Read More »
