Summer Picnic-ing and Sweet Tea Sipping

May 28, 2019

After nearly a year of not seeing each other, Hailey and I picked up right where we left off and celebrated reuniting as besties with a picnic in the park.

Happy 2nd Wedding Anniversary!

June 11, 2018

It’s hard to believe that two years ago my best friend and I said our “I do’s”. For those who don’t know, as soon as we got married we started living apart in the fall. Mike had just started law school, and I was beginning my PhD program. Has It been super hard? Absolutely. Would…
