Let's Travel!

Many of you know B and I are taking a trip to Charleston, SC in March for our fourth wedding anniversary, followed by a trip to Costa Rica in July. 

We are SO excited, I can hardly stand it! My mind is beginning to rest easy at the thought of Costa Rica since I've looked into the places we are staying. Highly rated resorts do a lot to make this girl feel safe! 

However, anytime I'm preparing for a big vacation, I always get the urge to just travel! So, I thought I'd share a few other places I'd love to visit.

I realize Iceland is a strange one but I randomly saw a commercial for Iceland and have been obsessed with it ever since. No clue why. I honestly know nothing about the place other than it looks beautiful!

So, if you could visit anywhere, where would you go?

Random Ramblings with a video

Not much to post about today. Just a few thoughts I've had that I'd like to get out, I guess.

• Tomorrow I will be 28 years old. And I'm actually excited about this.
• I have officially submitted my first article of the year to my editor. About cupcakes. Sweet.
• Last night I couldn't sleep because all I wanted to do was stare at Lainey. She is growing way too quickly and sometimes I feel like there just isn't enough time in the day to spend with her.
• If I was extremely wealthy, like a billionaire, I would probably have 5 kids. No joke.
• I told Bobby I have two ideas for books. But I'm pretty sure most of America couldn't handle the level of sarcasm they would be written with. Except for maybe the Chelsea Handler crowd.
• The thought of taking Lainey to Costa Rica is starting to freak me out. But I'm still uber excited.
• I big pink puffy heart Rob Lowe. He's so dreamy.
• Today Lainey is having a playdate with two cute little boys. Already.
• I miss my sister. Lainey was sick, then my nephew was sick. Makes it hard for us to get together.
• I'm still convinced Lainey looks like me.

This is Lainey getting up and ready for the day. Cutie Pie!!

Travelin' Tales and Giveaway Winner

We are still making our way through Texas visiting B's family. We are currently in San Marcos, Texas. Does anyone know what that means? SHOPPING!! San Marcos is home to the Tanger remium Outlets and ohemgee, it might just be my favorite thing in Texas. I am so excited because we are getting a Tanger Outlet about 15 minutes from our house in just about a year. Can.Not.Wait!


The Lainey Bug is doing great! She's been a bit fussy, but we got into San Marcos late last night and she went down about 10 p.m. and slept until 9 a.m. Thank you, Jesus! I think Christmas may have been a bit much for her and we just added on with this little Texas roadtrip.

Despite it all, she's hanging in there and being a trooper! We are headed out today to do some shopping and have a nice little lunch, then we will spend the evening visiting with B's family. I always love coming to San Marcos. I love this part of Texas and, if you aren't from here, you should visit. There is so much to do here in town and more just an hour or so in every direction.

So, remember my post about the Kindle, Nook or plain 'ol books? Well, I think I've decided on a Kindle Fire. My birthday is next Friday, January 6 so I think we may just go ahead and get it today.

Do you do this? We never wait until Christmas or birthdays for our gifts. We also never surprise each other. We tell each other what we want and we just go buy it. Kinda takes some of the fun out of it, but eh, at least I get what I want, right?

Well, today is the day! Congratulations to Emily Duncan on winning the My Memories giveaway! Emily, I will contact you with the product key and instructions on downloading the software. I know you will just love it!
