My posts have been few and far between lately because LIFE is so unbelievably beautiful this year and I am soaking up every single moment and opportunity. I mentioned this way back in May – but life is crazy (in an amazing way) and it’s making it difficult to dedicate much if any time to the blog currently. I have always come and gone on the blog with life events in between – but this is probably the biggest hiatus I’ve had in the past (almost) 6 years. That’s because since I last wrote about a life update, all of this has happened:
- MY LITTLE SISTER GOT MARRIED!
- I had my bridal shower and an epic weekend with my girls!
- I hit 6 months of being at my new job!
- I celebrated my 7 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of moving to Minneapolis!
- MY OLDER SISTER HAD HER BABY – AKA I’M AUNTIE RACHEL!
I’m literally beaming right now typing this out – because life is beyond amazing – it’s sheer bliss! It’s also challenging right now – trying to balance so much planning, but every single moment spent with my family and friends the past few months has been incredible. Not to mention, I’m loving my new job that I started in January. I just hit 6 months and I think for the first time since my college internship, I actually enjoy being at work. I love the work I do. I love being challenged by the work I do. I love the people! The only downfall, a long commute, which just makes wedding planning and balancing life a bit harder.
And now – everything is focused on the BIG DAY because we are 2 months and counting friends! Which means I’m going to be pretty absent the next couple months again because:
- I’M FLYING TO DENVER TO MEET MY NEPHEW!
- MY BACHELORETTE PARTY IN MIAMI IS LABOR DAY WEEKEND!
- OUR WEDDING IS OCTOBER 14TH!
Phew – see – life is pretty dang good! I am due to share some posts from my sister’s bachelorette party, her wedding and my own bridal shower! I am also heading to Denver tonight to meet my nephew – so hopefully I’ll have a recap of my weekend next week. Additionally, I’m going to be sharing a few destination bachelorette party posts soon – what to pack, what to do about decor and organizing people’s schedules. I’m beyond PUMPED for some girl time in Miami Beach in a few weeks!
Anyway, hope you are all doing well! I miss you and hope you’ve been having a fabulous summer! Talk soon xoxo!

Everything sounds so great for you right now – enjoy it!
