Last weekend, Aaron and I decided to jump the gun on the beginning of summer and wanted to take a little weekend road trip. I found a Groupon deal for the Parker Inn + Suites in Schenectady, NY and my first reaction was, “Schenectady? What the heck kinda name is that?” (it’s pronounced Ske-nek-ted-y, in case y’all were wondering) After thoroughly touring the town in Google Maps, I thought it looked quaint and decided to go for it. Upstate New York is so beautiful and this is the perfect time of year to see…

Spring has sprung, but apparently Muskoka, Canada hasn’t gotten the memo. The sun was shining and it was a beautiful day as Aaron and I explored the beautiful towns of Huntsville and Bracebridge, but it was still considerably more chilly than back home a few hours south. There was still a significant amount of snow on the ground, but unlike back in Toronto area, the white powder only enhances the beauty of the landscape. What I love is how you can see and feel an almost immediate change the second you enter Muskoka…

As sad as I was to leave Florida after a month, I was quite excited to go to Murrells Inlet in South Carolina.

Aaron and I decided to spend a Sunday afternoon exploring the area near us, which has a TON of waterfalls. The first spot we stopped at (where most of the pictures were taken) was pretty, but we were disappointed with the fact that there didn’t seem to be any way to get down to the bottom of this waterfall. Boo. This made me realize I have an affinity for trying…

Hey guys! How is everyone’s Monday going so far? I’m just trying to get ahead on some blog posts and get any last-minute Christmas details taken care of. Every time it feels like I’m all done, I think of something else I need to do!
Anyway, I styled this outfit when Aaron and I went away last weekend, so I figured I should share it with you before it becomes irrelevant 😛 We took a little weekend trip to the Finger Lakes in New York and it was so pretty there…
