6 THINGS I’VE LEARNED FROM MOVING TO A NEW CITY
I cannot believe it has been two years since I made the big move to Dallas. It was a dream of mine for a long time to move to the big city, but I wasn’t sure exactly what that move would look like. After graduating from graduate school, life worked out where a big move seemed ideal. I was going through a breakup from a pretty long relationship, did not yet have a job, and honestly just needed a change of scenery. I applied for multiple jobs all over the DFW until I finally landed one and off to Dallas I went. While making the move to a big new…

BACK TO FREDERICKSBURG TEXAS: SUMMER TRAVEL GUIDE
What a weekend it has been! I just got back from the best trip to Fredericksburg, Texas also known as Texas Wine Country. I visited Fredericksburg back in January and had an absolute blast.

TAILGATING AND A ROAD TRIP WITH THE TOYOTA RAV-4
It’s no secret that road trips are one of my very favorite things! If there is a cup of coffee, a good play list, and an even better car I will always be down to travel. This past weekend, I had the opportunity to road trip to Fayetteville, Arkansas for the LSU vs. Arkansas football game! If you know me personally, you know my Louisiana roots run deep even though I was raised in Arkansas. This game is always one of my very favorites every year, so of course I leaped at the chance when Toyota provided me with the RAV4 Adventure AWD to road trip in and tickets to…
