After a leisurely morning together yesterday, the fiancé and I headed to South Beach to do a little shopping, sightseeing, and obviously, a little eating and drinking. A few things we saw along the way: the gorgeous beach, classic art deco buildings and legit paparazzi stalking some female celeb with her mother (from what we [...]

Good morning! An 8am date with the treadmill at the hotel gym sure did get me going this morning.

I’m turning into quite the snow bunny with all of the outdoorsy things we’ve been doing here in Austria this week. Yesterday Rob took me on yet another epic adventure: rodeling! I had no idea what this entailed when I signed up to go, so you can imagine my excitement when I laid eyes on [...]
