My Disney Proposal

So as you can tell by the title, I’m engaged!!! And, yes, it was at Disney, in front of Cinderella’s Castle! A real life fairytale. I thought to write a post with some Proposal Tips for Disney that explain some of the detail that made JJ’s proposal to me so magical. If anything, it may…

Hello I’m Back and I’m Engaged!

Hi Friends! I’ve long left my blog for dead, and I kept promising myself I would return one day, so here I am, like Kahleesi to claim my Iron Throne (Game of Thrones reference for any fans). Much much much, has changed since I last wrote. Firstly, I’M ENGAGED!!! I will write a great post…

A Tale of Two Cities – Melbourne & Chicago Best Places

Sweet Valentine!

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! This Valentines I am celebrating as a singleton… not because I don’t have a boyfriend, but because JJ is in East Timor and I get to celebrate all week with my girlfriends! YAY! It’s been an interesting theme for discussions because a few friends (namely males) have expressed that Valentines Day…
