I’m not gonna lie. I had a fantastic summer. No work. Lots of travel. Still got paid (thank you bankruptcy settlement). Mid-September I started a new job and you’ll be happy to know that I have been paying the price for my idyllic summer. Nice to meet you up-at-6-am-with-a-45-min-one-way-commute. Long story short, I’m still re-adjustingContinue reading “Summer Send-off (in Belgium !)”

The Best Darn Mom & Sis Trip Ever: Part 1
You know when you anticipate something for so long and then when it’s over you feel like ‘wait…how did that happen?!’ ? That’s how this trip felt. Mom & Sis were always going to come visit but we needed to wait until the fall of 2017 (more on that later), so to think we’veContinue reading “The Best Darn Mom & Sis Trip Ever: Part 1”
Good Times Happen For Those Who Visit
First, I’d like to apologize to my Auntie R for my blog posting slackness. My only excuse is that the weather has been perfect.

Two planes and a train ride later put them hereContinue reading “Groningen, Paris, & Amsterdam Too !”

We started in Groningen, jetted off to Rome for a few days in the middle, and ended in Amsterdam. I’m going to take The Netherlands portion of our adventure. Shane will continue with RomeContinue reading “Look Who We Found !”
Sooo… This happened last night
Yep! Shane and I went to Amsterdam to see Taylor Swift in all her 1989 World Tour Glory!! I know what you’re probably thinking. “You went without your sister!?!” Ok maybe you weren’t thinking that at all, but I feel the need to explain because our sisterly love for each other and Taylor is aContinue reading “Sooo… This happened last night”
Happy New Year !
We Went to Amsterdam! Well, not for New Year’s Eve. We stayed here in Groningen for that which was an experience in itself. Fireworks are legal here for only three days (Dec 30 – Jan 1) and during that time you can expect to hear them non-stop. The legal fireworks aren’t so huge butContinue reading “Happy New Year !”
