I just got back from Seattle this week & am already a little homesick! Here are some pictures from my trip & a few of my favorite things to do when I’m home sweet home.

So funny – this morning my hunky husband rolled over and said, “Christmas with my first wife!” I think he meant to say, “My first Christmas with my wife.” Haha! Buying me a 7D Mark II definitely redeemed him from that one!

It has fresh coffee, pastries, bread, box lunches, as well as boutique wines, cheeses, specialty grocery items and gifts. It has THE cutest atmosphere. If you are ever...
We just got back from our tropical honeymoon & rushed back to put up our tree! It felt like we were on summer vacation but were reminded it’s holiday time as soon as we landed! We found a cute chubby little tree that fits perfect in the front window of our beach house & this...
While exploring around the island of Kauai, Troy and I ran into a little thrift store along the highway. Troy looked at me and said “Aimee’s in heaven!” We pulled off the the side of the road (literally), and started on our treasure hunt. I really felt like I was on the show Lost, it...
