Nothing motivates me more than an upcoming trip. It inspires me to work harder so that I can then relax and enjoy the trip to the fullest. The last couple weeks or so have felt long and tiresome, so I’m looking ahead to a few of the trips I’ve got planned for this year, and I gotta say, it’s helping.

No question about it, Sunday afternoons were made for naps and cuddles. And that’s exactly what we did today…amongst cleaning, laundry, computer work, cooking (#adulting).

In case you haven’t been able to tell yet, I’m a sucker for anything floral or plant related. So, when I saw these cross-stitch hoops being beautifully dressed in florals and used as decor all over Pinterest, I was hooked. My mom and I both thought they would be a great addition to my wedding decor, so I set out to find away to make them myself. Turns out, its pretty simple.

Too many places to go and not enough time; that’s my problem. The more I travel, the longer my list of dream destinations gets, and Pinterest sure hasn’t helped. But I hope to be traveling for many years to come, so a long list of places to go works for me.

Life has been a bit crazy lately. Eric is in the thick of his seminary classes now, and I’ve been kept pretty busy working on this blog. About a week ago, we decided to break away from our responsibilities and have a good old fashion date night.
