In hopes of not actually forgetting this entire European excursion, I’m sharing the photos and highlights from our autumn trip to London, France, and Switzerland. Eric had to go to London and France for work (tough stuff, but somebody has to do it), so I tagged along and made a grand little vacation out of…
one giant catch up.
Well, it’s been a heck of a long time since I’ve posted on this thing. I’ve realized that without the ol’ blog, I have a really hard time remembering anything that we’ve done. On our anniversary last week, we had to scroll through our phone photos to even remember what we did to celebrate last…
montana.
Let’s jump back to October, please. Back in the prime days of autumn, we took a little vacation to Montana. When I told co-workers where we were going, literally every response was, “Montana? Do you have family there?” As if there would be no reason to visit this particular state without the pull of family…
we’re still alive!
Greetings, old friends! My drafts folder tells me I started writing this post back in March, but apparently I’ve just given up on timeliness and actually finishing things. But here we are, at the end of June, still very much alive. I’m going to play an insane game of catch up and power through everything…
suttle lake lodge.
Remember when the concept of “hygge” took over the internet? I jumped on the bandwagon a couple of years ago, fully embracing the idea of cozy time: candles, blankets, oversized sweaters, a fireplace (only in my dreams- in my reality, we’ve occasionally cast the yule log on the ol’ TV). Sign me up. But in…
wrapping up 2017.
I am not much for new year’s resolutions, but I hoping that this will be the last time I do a mega-wrapping-up-a-season-of-life-because-I-got-so-behind-on-everything-giant-photodump-post. Our lives are full and fun, and I want so badly to remember everything (and if I don’t photograph it or write it down, it’s like it never happened), so here’s to being a little bit…
oh, canada.
It already seems like forever ago that we were frolicking around Canada on a post-triathlon vacation. I probably say this after every trip, but I think this was one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. After leaving lovely Whistler, we drove and drove and drove to spend the night in Revelstoke. (I’ll let…
ironman 70.3 canada.
Well, we did another half-Ironman (Ironman 70.3 Canada). The race was in Whistler, which is probably the most beautiful setting for a triathlon in all the land. Mountains, lakes, mountains, lakes, mountains. Seriously, Google image search the race and enjoy all the splendor. Whistler was the home to the 2010 Winter Olympics (shout out to…
spring.
I’m alive! It has been so embarrassingly long since I have blogged that I had to google “wordpress login” to figure out how to sign into this thing. So, now that it’s late July, I figured I’d play mega catch up and update you on everything that happened this spring (partly for the benefit of…
thanksgiving in bend.
Now that Christmas break is officially here, it’s time to finally share what we did for our annual Thanksgiving trip! If you’ll recall, since moving to Oregon, we haven’t been able to spend Thanksgiving with our families. After a pretty lame first Thanksgiving on our own, waaayyyy back in 2012, we decided we should take…
catching up on the rest of the summer.
This summer has come and gone in the flashiest of a flash. We kept ourselves pretty busy, and almost nothing made it to the blog (hey, grad school time constraints). So here’s a little rundown of everything I missed.
priest lake, idaho.
This has been one amazing summer. I keep calling every trip (see Colorado, parts 1 and 2, California, and Crater Lake) my “last hoorah” before grad school. But this trip to Priest Lake, Idaho was the “official last hoorah” of summer, since I started school about 11 hours after we got home. We were super…
crater lake.
In a continuation of the summer of reunions with old friends, we took a little trip down to Crater Lake National Park to meet up with the Pugels. Dustin and Shelly are some of our dear pals from our Kentucky days. Apparently we hadn’t seen each other in THREE YEARS, so this reunion was extra…
apricot lane farms.
As one of my “last hoorahs” before starting grad school (next week!), I took a little trip down to southern California to visit one of my college pals, Mallory. Mal lives and works at Apricot Lane Farms, an amazing biodynamic, organic farm outside of LA. After years of promising to make a visit, I finally…
colorado (part 2).
Colorado is pretty cool. We spent a week in the Vail Valley with our pals, the Bloems, for our annual Blinger adventure of hiking, eating, strolling, and laughing. (You can read about the first half of our trip here.)
