Huge life update: we moved to Colorado! Moving to a state I never lived in before amid a pandemic was a very new experience for us. Jord and I had moved from state to state before but during a time where things are closed or limited didn’t make this process easy. Why we moved…
As an extrovert, I thought working from home (wfh) would be really hard, but thanks to the modern technologies we enjoy, I have figured out some coping mechanisms. I am so grateful to work in a field where I can work from home and specifically on a team that is 75% remote…
Here, in Salt Lake City, Utah, covid-19 came slowly and swiftly. My company, among other tech companies, made a swift and aggressive decision to mandatory work from home, which started on Friday, March 13th. Thankfully, Jordan took his final exam that same weekend and was one of the few in his class to get all of the things he needed to do to get certified done. This last week, we practiced self-isolation…
Last year, I traveled many new places and picked up some awesome items to ease my journey along the way. A lot of these items I purchased through Amazon. I love Amazon because I can buy many different things all in one place and get prime shipping, which is especially great when you are in a time crunch. Here are some of my favorite purchases of 2019 I bought on Amazon…
Lately, I have received like so many compliments that I look really good and even today someone said I look “angelic.” Can you believe that? I couldn’t! From being described as “glowing” to “angelic” I honestly attribute my new presence to two things. First, my…
As far as I can remember the years I was with my mum’s family we spent Christmas Eve all together. Every year we would act out the nativity and make sugar cookies. This year we added a new tradition! Candy derby racing…
Something new in my life and predominantly taking up all my time is my new restricted diet. As more friends and family learn about this I get asked a lot of the same questions. Thus, here is a little snippet to some of the most common questions…
Yes, I know May was over a month ago but so much happened and then it was all catching up sooo here we are. May was the month Jordan and I spent the first (almost) two weeks in…
At the beginning of 2019, I said that this year was a year of travel for Jordan and I. Most especially, me. I had already known about some trips and was excited for the year. A few months into 2019, I realized…
One of the things you have to know about me is that I love love looooove Halloween! I love the challenge of putting together a costume that not only is recognizable but also modest. This year, Jordan chose our costumes…
My mum and (step)dad, David, came to visit us in Salt Lake for a couple of days. Though the visit was short it was very sweet. David hasn’t come to visit us.. like ever.. He was there for my college graduation but that was like three years ago. It’s not that he…
Sometimes the stars align and everything falls on the same day/week. Jordan and I had already anticipated that my birthday would fall smack dab in the middle of his summer semester finals, what we didn’t expect was…
I started this blog to share more about our lives. Jordan and I go on so many adventures and are not big journalers so I thought blogging about our experiences might help us share our story with our friends and loved ones.
OMG WE ARE SO EXCITED TO FINALLY SHARE.. We bought a house! More than buying a house, we chose to build a home! YAYYYY! It feels so surreal. When we decided…
