Hi y’all! Hope your Monday is fabulous. The other week I had such an incredible 7 days in Maui and received so many questions about different things we did. I wanted to round it all up in today’s post. Last September, I knew for a grad gift I wanted a trip. Around November, my parents called me and said they would give me their timeshare in Maui, Hawaii for a week. They get it 2 weeks each year and they are going for a week in July for my moms 50th. So Josh and I got the other week available.
We started saving for our flight tickets, rental car, and activities/food immediately. We planned it for the day after I graduate so that we could both take off from work all at one time and also be able to start full-time at the end of May/beginning of June. I had been SO excited all semester for this. I grew up going to Maui with my family since I was little so this was my first time to go all by myself, and with my fiancé. We wanted to do it big, but also stay within a budget. Hawaii is freaking expensive y’all. I never realized until this trip when I was on my own dime haha. BUT, we had the time of our life and I wanted to share a little bit about what each day looked like for us and also different ways we saved. [Read more…]
Lubbock is the place I’ve spent the last 3 years of my life. When I first moved here from Dallas, it was a huge culture shock. I was used to a fun and hustling, bustling city and then Lubbock was just….bleh. Over the years though, I’ve grown to really love Lubbock. It’s growing SO MUCH but it’s still small to where I can get anywhere in 15 mins at most. This place has my heart now! 
Happy Wednesday y’all! It’s been a whirlwind of a week so far but I’m back in Lubbock and trying to get on track with life! Last weekend, Josh and I took a trip for a fun getaway weekend in Chicago. We were frozen the whole time but we absolutely loved the city and adored our weekend. About a month before, I asked on IG for y’all to send me your Chicago recommendations and I received SO many lovely recs. We tried to make it to just about all of them! So for today’s post I thought it would be fun to round up everything we did in case you’re wanting to go to Chicago and need some fun ideas on what to do. 
Hey friends! I am finally finally getting around to this Toas travel guide, and I’m super pumped about it! Josh and I got to go on a sponsored trip to Taos, New Mexico, a few weeks ago and had the most incredible time. We truly got to experience winter life in Taos for a weekend and it was so peaceful. We went with a fun group too which is always a plus! I wanted to share some photos and a little bit about each day with y’all. So, without further ado, here’s my Taos travel guide! 
Hey y’all, happy Monday!
