Fourth Wedding Anniversary | Fruit & Flowers

Last week, Ryan and I celebrated our FOURTH wedding anniversary. We were SO beyond thrilled to celebrate this special day while we were home in the US.

For our first year we exchanged paper gifts, picked out cotton goodies for year two, leather …

Third Wedding Anniversary | Leather Gift Ideas For Him

Earlier this summer, Ryan and I are celebrated our THIRD wedding anniversary! AHH! Part of me wonders how it has already been three years, while the other part of me wonders how it has only been three years (haha).

Thank goodness for spellcheck, otherwise, there would …

Daytime Dates

Happy Friday! For many people, Friday night is the time to let loose and forget about all things work-related, and for couples, it is the night they can finally go out together and catch up after a busy week.
