Going to the chapel

HOLY HECK.

Why is planning a wedding (that is over a year away) the most stressful thing ever??

I'm looking for a good photographer that doesn't cost an arm, leg, and my first born.

The search continues.

All suggestions accepted.

(Wedding location will be close to Panama City Beach, FL..so a photographer in that area is preferred)

peace & love

thanks in advance

Peace up, A town down

Finally, we got all of our stuff moved in and got to go on an Atlanta adventure!
Our first stop was my new favorite coffee shop by far
Rev Coffee 
I have now tried the Peanut Brittle and Snickerdoodle 
both amazing.
Peanut Brittle has a tiny taste of peanut butter
Snickerdoodle is more sweet (which was right up my ally). 
I'm obsessed with this little shop and can't wait to take all my friends to see what "Brewin in the Burbs" is all about!

Next stop was the Atlanta History Center. I bought a dual membership so D and I can visit whenever we desire.

They had a small display of movie memorabilia from Gone With The Wind, which was pretty cool.. it  out did the Margaret Mitchell House. (which was a little sad because she did write the book after all..)

Next stop, the Swan house, which is on the same grounds as the Atlanta History Center. This house still is set up the way it was from the 1930s. It is absolutely beautiful and I will be back to see it again!

Then we headed to Midtown, to see the Margaret Mitchell house (which is included in my dual Atlanta History Center membership). I was so excited to see this because my niece is OBSESSED with Gone With The Wind. I thought this would be a great place to take her. Not going to lie, I was disappointed. I figured their would be a costume or something from the movie but all I got was the entrance to Tara. It was cool to hear about Margaret Mitchell's life and see the actual apartment that she wrote the book in. However, it's not what I expected when I first planned to go. Maybe if they get more movie props I'll be back. 

After our adventures we strolled over to Vortex Burger in Midtown (not the original). The atmosphere makes it worth the trip. We were too hungry to get anything crazy from the menu so we stuck to the normal burger (added bacon) and a side of tots. Not too bad but nothing to get me back there ASAP.

Anyway, I'm sure we will continue to adventure around and I will continue to review and post!

Have a great weekend 

peace & love

Just when you though it was safe..

I'm back! 
I finally have a clear head and all of my attention can be focused on blogging.

Fast update:
I'm engaged to the man of my dreams.

I moved to Smyrna, GA.

I am a nanny for the most precious little 6 month old girl.

I am planning for the wedding of my dreams on the budget of a nanny. 
Ideal situation: the beach, late September, 2016. 

I will keep y'all posted and be reaching out to you for advice and suggestions along the way.

So in love with you..

Seriously


I got a little two day vacation away with my love
&&
I truly believe it's good for the soul.

Not just your relationship but working on you..
being on vacation with your significant other allows a lot of wonderful work to happen.

I am always amazed that (even if we bicker) I CRY like a baby every time D leaves to head back to GA.

Long distance is hard but it makes me love my time with him that much more
(and count down the days until we no longer have to be long distance)
(roughly 316 days away!)

I hope y'all have had a wonderful week!
Promise I will be blogging more but not till after my favorite holiday (July 4th)!

peace & love
