Our Favorite Kind of Night

Because wine & chocolate chip cookies are always a good idea. We’re starting Tales of the City on Netflix tonight. Have you seen it? It looks so good!

Hope you have a lovely night, too xx.

There’s No Place Like Home

After three different countries and spending all week visiting parts of the world we’ve never been to before, it felt so good to walk through our front door and exhale. We are home!

We got home late Saturday night and the first thing we did was make a big pot of coffee. Sounds weird, but we were wired and had lots of unpacking to do and we knew we wouldn’t be able to sleep anyway. We loved on the fur babies and changed our sheets (forgot to do that before we left) and just took in being home. The cruise was, as always, amazing, and visiting all of the new (to us) cities and meeting so many new friends was the highlight of our trip, but there’s just something about being home and settling back into a routine that we absolutely love.

We’ll be posting some vlogs and blogs in the next few weeks all about the cruise and the cities we visited, so stay tuned!

Packed & Ready to Go

Almost* packed and ready to go.

Our suitcases are out, things are getting packed up, we have a few friends here who are staying at our house, and we’re getting last minute things ready, because we leave for Europe tomorrow!

It’s always so stressful the day before you go out of town isn’t it? So much to do and not enough time to do it, it seems. BUT, we’re making the best of it and actually did something different this time: we started packing little by little a few days before. So one night we got all of our underwear and socks together, the next night all of our shorts and pants and shirts, and then lastly we put together the outfits we want to wear on certain days, so that we make sure we’re only packing what we need.

This is the longest trip we’ve ever had to pack for, so we’re doing what we can to fit everything into a carry on so we don’t have to check a bag. We’ve heard too many horror stories (and actually, one of y’all emailed us about one!) about folks losing their bags when flying internationally that we didn’t want to take a chance. Better safe than sorry, right?

We’re pretty sure the fur babies can tell we’re leaving, too. They always can, and it’s heartbreaking every time. They are quieter, more shy and reserved, and seem to lay around the house all melancholy-like. 😔

We’ll do our best to update the blog from the ship, but most likely you can catch up on everything we did on our YouTube channel once we’re back. We’ll also be posting a full recap blog so stay tuned for that!

Wish us luck 😊.

So Close

Remember what we talked about in this post? We mentioned two things that were big uncertainties for us, things we were waiting on and are super excited about. We heard back on one of those things last week and we’ll update you on that soon, but for now…

We’re only one week out from being finished with the other new and exciting project (if you want to call it that) that we’ve been working on! We’re going to finish it up before we leave to celebrate Pride with Celebrity Cruises so that when we get back, we’ll be able to start as soon (or later, if we want to hold off) as we want. We’re so close it almost doesn’t seem real.

The next few weeks are going to be a whirlwind and we’re more than ready to tackle them head on. We can’t wait to share all of this with y’all and tell you what we’re so damn excited about. Stay tuned!!!
