We stopped vlogging & here's why
You may have noticed we stopped vlogging on our YouTube channel. This was kind of a big deal because our channel was how we shared about our every day lives and was the back bone of what I shared on this blog. YouTube was always our big memory keeping method and not doing it was a heartbreaking decision, but at the time, a totally necessary one. We haven’t vlogged on YouTube in over a year, and I wanted to share a little bit about why that happened.
May 2021 Recap -- baby stuff, lots of weddings, and podcast breaks
Whew! Another month down? Wow, things are flying by. I can’t believe that in 3 short months we will have a newborn. There’s so much to do and so little time. My wedding schedule during the month of May consumed me and felt like it took up all of my time (which weddings typically do). There’s the planning for a wedding, prepping for the big day, working all day on my feet, being exhausted the following day, and then spending the next day catching up before I have to do it all over again. If I were to describe my May that’s what I would tell you it felt like—exhausting.
Life update - I'm back!
It’s going to be really hard to give you a full update of everything that has happened in my life this year because, well, it’s been a lot. And unfortunately, I have only posted on my blog 6 times… SIX TIMES! That’s crazy. I remember back in the day that I used to post six times in just one week. So, has hard as I’m going to try, I know I will miss some things.
Getting my life together.
Sometimes I like to pretend I have it all together, but I do not! I recognize that I should be very grateful for the life and opportunities I currently have, but sometimes I can get sucked into a rut of not knowing where I'm going, what I'm doing, or who I want to be. I feel like I experience these feelings at least once a year really hard--and it's always during the winter.
May 28 - June 4 | Weekly Vlog
Monday we arrived back to see that we had our birthday gifts at the front door. WE GOT A GOPRO!!! SURPRISE!!!! In our video, you will see that we had to try out the water-proofness of the GoPro so we tested it on my bath water. Well it works! And it's pretty cool footage--you should check it out.
Another weekly update
Isn't it funny that this is the end-game that we all strive to achieve-- we want to move out, find our life partner, get the job, and then life will go on perfect and happy. And then when this does happen you're left wondering what is left to do. I am VERY happy with the way that everything is unfolding for Skylar and I here in Kansas City. It's just strange to look back and realize that we've hit this big milestone that I've been striving to achieve for so long.
Wow, it's been awhile
Hello my lovely blog readers! I have left you in the dust for awhile--and I guess that's what happens when your life throws new routines at you left and right. But finally, and I hopefully mean finally, I have established a good daily plan and positive mental state to take on blogging again while working a full time job. So it looks like we have lots of catching up to do!
A double date and other fun weekend stuff
Skylar and I are finally starting to settle in. I am finding some of my favorite spots to hang out, am feeling comfortable at work, and am making friends along the way. This past weekend we went on a double date with a friend of mine, who I met at work, and her husband. It was a really great time, and I love that we are starting to really feel like ourselves here in Kansas City.
The move to Kansas City
Moving across states is tricky and challenging. There has been a lot of virtual planning, plenty of ups and downs, and tons of changes that have made Skylar and I really have to grow up. We didn't have internet for awhile, so I basically took a break from blogging and didn't stress about trying to keep things updated. But now I have lots to share.
Tea Time No. 011
This was a very fun and productive week for me. I probably drank too much caffeine, am on the verge of a wicked migraine, and should probably try to calm down, but I just love it when I get a productivity high like I did this week.
