I seriously love the ocean and would give nearly everything to go back to Bandon and spend a couple carefree weeks on the coast. However, since I must work and maintain some level of responsibility (most of the time) I just wanted to share with you, again, the beauty of Portland, Vancouver, and the Columbia … Continue reading Columbia River
So of you didn't already know our high school friend Britta is living in our basement. Not that you have to know that for this post, just a useful piece of information for the future. Anyway, we both LOVE Ben Howard, but completely spaced on buying tickets to his show in Portland. The realization was … Continue reading We’re goin to Canada!

I absolutely love the rain so the past week has been amazingly beautiful, almost magical! I seriously love how bright pumpkins and Fall leaves look on dreary, rainy days; having a cozy house (with a … Continue reading End of Summer Throwback
Having a house is "the best thing since sliced bread" in my opinion. Since I moved out of my parent's I have always lived in an apartment. Which means that I have always had neighbors who were literally in just the next room over, I have had no yard, or porch, or any sort of access … Continue reading House Life
