A Texas Girl Exploring the World
If you travel at all, you are probably familiar with the TSA’s Pre-Check and Global Entry programs. Zac and I signed up this summer for both TSA Pre-Check and Global Entry- before we signed up, we didn’t know many details about either option, and discovered that there was so much information out there! If you’re considering signing […]
Now that we are in full-on Christmas mode (and the weather sort of feels like it), I’ve been super excited to break out all my winter recipes. That means pumpkin, apples, cinnamon, and anything that can be made in my Crock Pot. Slow cooker Guinness beef stew. Is there anything more ‘fall’ than a good, hearty […]
I’m so excited about this post! When we were planning our Portugal trip, there was one place at the top of my list- Sintra. I passed through it on my first trip to Lisbon but didn’t have time to see anything, so I was itching to get back. I planned out each day of our […]
Well, guess who is FINALLY getting around to her Portugal posts? Better late than never, right? Things have been really crazy (in a good way) around here but I finally sat down to write a few posts! Since I have had so many questions about our trip to Portugal, especially why we went and what […]
Happy Friday! This week seemed to fly by, but thankfully we don’t really have any plans this weekend, so I’m looking forward to relaxing for a couple days. Before everyone breaks out the rosé and gets their weekend going, I rounded up a few things I’m loving this week: Reading: Zac and I recently started using […]
How is it already August?? I feel like this summer has flown by- not that I’m complaining, as I’ve already started buying fall decor and spent about an hour looking at pumpkin recipes yesterday…. However, since it won’t feel like fall in Texas until at least October (if we’re lucky), I’m still rocking my sun […]
I’m back! Things have been super crazy on the non-blog end (there will be a post soon!), but long story short I started a new job and things have been very exciting but very busy! I have a ton of posts lined up, including all of my Portugal posts from our trip last month! I […]
Hello! I’ve got a quick post today, as I’m busy running around and making sure we’re all ready to go tomorrow! We’re only taking carry-on luggage for this trip, and it’s been less of a challenge than I thought it would be! So before take off, I wanted to share with you all my tips on how […]
We’re all ready to leave for Portugal! I wanted to share a little peak at what I’m taking with me, tips, and what to pack for Portugal if you plan on going! Since I have visited Portugal once (for only about 2 days), I at least have an idea of the weather and the terrain of […]
I’m currently in the process of packing for Portugal, and the hardest part for me is definitely what shoes to pack. I have this problem every time I travel- I try to only pack a few pairs and then suddenly I’m trying to cram 5 pairs in my suitcase for a weekend trip! Does anyone […]
