NYC Travel Diaries {W New York Union Square}

Choosing the right hotel in New York City can feel overwhelming. There are hundreds of options, each with its own personality, neighborhood and price point. For this trip, our priority was simple.

NYC Travel Diaries {Day 2: Sister Shopping Day}

I was up at the crack of dawn for coffee and a little quiet time before our big Sister shopping day!

Arizona Spring Break {Sedona to Scottsdale: From Red Rocks to Resort Life}

We started our final morning in Sedona with another decadent breakfast at Che Ah Chi, once again surrounded by those spectacular red rock views. We took it slow and soaked it all in… so slow, in fact, that we found ourselves tossing everything into suitcases and squealing out the door. Worth it. Sedona Jeep Tour… Read More
