Where Am I Now?


Where Am I Now?
Escaped for one final adventure in Sedona, hiking Escaped for one final adventure in Sedona, hiking the trail where we got engaged two years ago, before our little man arrives and changes life as we know it! 🥰🤰🏻👶🏻 I brought my OCEAN slip-on shoes from @bionicashoes with me on this hike, because let me tell you...when you're 9 months pregnant, putting on yoga pants is hard enough...but tying shoes or squeezing into hiking boots? Forget it! I love that these are eco-friendly (the knit is actually made from recycled single-use plastic bottles), so by wearing them, I'm helping to reduce my footprint (pun intended!) and leave a better Earth for our son to explore. 🌎☀️ . Any guesses on when our little adventurer will arrive? I'm a first-time mom and he's due September 18. We have been healthy and measuring perfectly so far this pregnancy, and my husband and I are so thankful for that! I'll be waiting for labor to begin naturally (no interventions/induction, etc.) as long as we continue to stay healthy! . #travel #travelblog #instatravel #instapassport #girlswhotravel #sheisnotlost #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #explorewithme #explorerbabes #wildernessbabes #visitarizona #arizonahiking #arizonahikersguide #hikearizona #outdoorwomen #womenwhohike #alpinebabes #womenwhoexplore #hikerbabesorg100 #adventureladies #outdoorbella #wonderfulwildwomen #mountainpeopleunite #radgirlslife #pregnancyjourney #pregnancyadventures #momtobe #dueseptember2020 #37weekspregnant
Venturing out today for the first time in FIVE mon Venturing out today for the first time in FIVE months! What an odd feeling! Since March, I’ve only gone out for essentials (groceries, pre-natal doctor appointments, etc.), but today I’m heading north to Sedona for business. I’m SO excited to see some scenery that’s not my backyard 😂 but I’m also masked-up and taking every precaution possible to make sure I’m keeping my baby and others around me safe during these meetings. You’ll probably get sprayed with Lysol if you get within 6 feet of me today! 😂 . Where was your first post-quarantine adventure? Have you taken it yet? When do you plan to? LMK in the comments! . #travel #wanderlust #travelblog #instatravel #instapassport #travelawesome #girlswhotravel #girlsborntotravel #sheisnotlost #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #likeamountaingirl #explorewithme #explorerbabes #wildernessbabes #visitarizona #arizonahiking #arizonahikersguide #hikearizona #outdoorwomen #womenwhohike #alpinebabes #womenwhoexplore #hikerbabesorg100 #adventureladies #outdoorbella #wonderfulwildwomen #mountainpeopleunite #radgirlslife
When I found out I was pregnant, I was terrified a When I found out I was pregnant, I was terrified about how it would change my body. I'd worked my booty off for the last 3 years to sculpt a body that I was SO PROUD OF. Pre-pregnancy, I was in the best shape of my life. But it turns out, even though I've gained 22lbs at 32 weeks (which feels like so much on my 5'2" frame!) I've never been more amazed with my body than I am right now! (Swipe for 3rd trimester photo). . No one can prepare you for the feeling of your little baby kicking in your belly, or watching your body grow and expand to protect & nourish your little one. It's so crazy to me what a woman's body is capable of and I couldn't be more grateful that I am able to experience this. The weight gain, the exhaustion, the achiness...it's all bringing me closer to meeting our little man. . I'm not worried or stressed about "getting my body back" after pregnancy, because my body never went anywhere! It's right here and now I know exactly what it's capable of. I will get it back to the gym and back to my starting weight eventually, but for now, my body is serving a greater purpose. Any other mamas or soon-to-be-mamas who are reading this, I hope you always remember how incredible your body is and what it can do! . Does anyone have recommendations for gowns for maternity photos? I've heard great things about @sexymamamaternity and @pinkblushmaternity. Trying to decide! . #travellove #girlswhowander #bestdestinations #amazingdestinations #darlingescapes #travelguide #explorewithme #explorerbabes #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #sheisnotlost #insta_passport #welivetotravel #girlsborntotravel #ABMTravelBug #traveleverywhere #travelgirlsgo #travelawesome #girlswholift #fitchicks #fitness #traveltheglobe #nassau #bahamas #pregnancy #pregnancyjourney #momtobe #dueseptember2020 #32weekspregnant #3rdtrimester
It's no secret that the USA has not handled this p It's no secret that the USA has not handled this pandemic well. It's breaking my heart that our inability to travel continues, and will likely be in place for a very long time. It's truly weighing heavy on me to not be able to go and explore new destinations right now! 💔⁠ .⁠ I know this may be a controversial post...but it's also hurting my heart how many people I'm seeing continue to travel despite the advisories against it and just general human responsibility to protect those around you. Granted, I live in Arizona, where our case count is through the roof and we are among the highest-risk of contraction in the country. BUT the amount of local family & friends in my feed who I have seen traveling for pleasure right now is absolutely blowing my mind...and truly breaking my heart! ⁠ .⁠ We have a responsibility to ourselves and to each other to make smart decisions, protect who we can, and #STAYHOME! I'm going just as stir-crazy as everyone else being stuck at home all the time, but I have so many high-risk members in my family, and traveling just isn't worth the risk to their lives. And the thrill of a road trip or weekend getaway isn't worth risking someone ELSE's family who I may encounter along the way. Stay strong, guys! Stay smart! Stay local! STAY HOME! ❤️⁠ .⁠ #travel #wanderlust #travelblog #instatravel #instapassport #girlswhotravel #girlsborntotravel #sheisnotlost #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #likeamountaingirl #explorewithme #explorerbabes #wildernessbabes #visitarizona #arizonahiking #arizonahikersguide #hikearizona #outdoorwomen #womenwhohike #alpinebabes #womenwhoexplore #hikerbabesorg100 #adventureladies #outdoorbella #wonderfulwildwomen #mountainpeopleunite #radgirlslife
I turned 🌟 31 years old 🌟 this week! ⁠ .⁠ It certainly wasn't the birthday I'd planned. We'd planned to be in Europe this week, on our babymoon before our new little adventurer arrives in September! 🤰🏻👶🏻 Alas, life had other plans and if there's anything I've learned in these last few months, it's how important it is to roll with the punches.⁠ .⁠ I'm not sure what the future of travel looks like. I'm not sure when our next trip will be, or when we'll be able to travel with our little baby safely, now that COVID is a part of our lives. But I am more than sure that life with my guys is always an adventure, and we will certainly make our own! ...Aaaand now that my husband is finally starting to work fewer hours (he was super overworked with COVID), we can get back to going on local adventures, while still social-distancing, of course! So, I look forward to sharing more of Arizona with you!⁠ .⁠ ✴️ How are you guys coping with the travel ban? Are you starting to book trips yet? How far out are you booking?

What happens when you try to cram exploring THREE What happens when you try to cram exploring THREE countries into NINE days? You get an action-packed, exhausting, worth-every-stinking-moment 11-Day itinerary for England, Wales & Ireland. New blog post & video are up detailing this itinerary, and I also created a FREE Travel Itinerary Planning Checklist + Template to share with you guys! You can find the links to all in my bio! ⁠ .⁠ Now, do I recommend cramming three countries into 9 days? Not really. My ideal itinerary would give us at least a week in each country...ideally even a month, in order to really explore each destination like locals. That’s how I used to travel and I truly miss it! Unfortunately, when you work full time and have limited vacation time, you don’t always have that luxury when there is a whole world of destinations to see! Thus, our crammed 11-day itinerary of England, Wales & Ireland worked for us.⁠ . ⁠ Would you ever tackle an itinerary like this? 🤓 LMK in the comments! ⁠ .⁠ #traveltheworld #wanderlife #travelpassport #travelblog #weroamabroad #travelawesome #mytravelgram #traveldeeper #wanderlusters #besttravelpics #darlingescapes #shewhowanders #femmetravel #wearetravelgirls #travelgirl #dametraveler #gltlove #damestravel #sidewalkerdaily #traveldames #wanderwomeninc #traveleurope #instaeurope #europetravel #stonehenge #visitengland #visitbritain #capturingbritain #instabritain #visituk
🔸Pure happiness!🔸I was dreading this #StayHo 🔸Pure happiness!🔸I was dreading this #StayHome order at first. I LOVE adventures & exploring and I get so restless sitting at home. BUT, taking the time to slow down and refocus on my goals has been one of the best blessings I could ask for. There was something in my life that has been massively holding me back from my personal goals for the last few years, taking so much of my time, my energy, and my creativity. That thing is now gone...meaning that I finally had time to sit and reflect on what I want in my life, in my career, and in my growing family. I'm so excited to be relaunching my travel blog next week with ALL NEW content and travel stories that I just haven't had time to share these last few years. I can't wait to share them with you! I'm also launching my own marketing consulting business, another goal that I have had for a LONG time but never had the time to tackle. Although I'm feeling restless & ready for another adventure, I'm grateful for this time of reflection, growth & preparation. I'm SO excited to see what this next chapter brings! . 🔸Have any surprising blessings or insights come from your time spent at home lately?

#StayHome Day 29: How are you coping with staying #StayHome Day 29: How are you coping with staying indoors? For me, today is Day 29 of not going anywhere except the grocery store. In my previous job, I worked from home frequently, and now that I'm currently starting my own business and working from home every day, I've had to set a daily routine for myself so that I don't get too distracted. It's SO helpful when it comes to staying productive and focused and it's my single biggest tip for working from home successfully. Having a "schedule" makes you so much more likely to get your butt in gear. Here's my current one: ⁠ .⁠ 🔸7am🔸 Wake-up! ⁠ 🔸7:15am🔸 Shower and put on mascara, to feel somewhat human 😂⁠ 🔸7:45am🔸 Quick, healthy breakfast⁠ 🔸8am🔸 Exercise (at-home resistance workouts or going for a 3-5mile run in the neighborhood) ⁠ 🔸9am🔸 Begin work (with frequent breaks to snuggle with my puppers because the morning hours are her cuddle time!)⁠ 🔸12pm🔸 Break for a homemade acai bowl (my fave lunch!)⁠ 🔸12:30pm🔸 Spend one hour tackling a "house" project (i.e. Cleaning out a drawer/closet, doing laundry, cleaning the kitchen, etc.)⁠ 🔸1:30pm-6pm🔸 Continue working⁠ 🔸6pm🔸 Make dinner and relax! ⁠ .⁠ Have you set a #quarantineroutine yet? What does it look like?⁠ .⁠ #traveltheworld #wanderlife #travelpassport #travelblog #weroamabroad #travelawesome #mytravelgram #traveldeeper #wanderlusters #besttravelpics #darlingescapes #shewhowanders #femmetravel #wearetravelgirls #travelgirl #dametraveler #gltlove #damestravel #sidewalkerdaily #traveldames #wanderwomeninc #parisjetaime #hello_paris #france_vacations #loves_paris #parismaville #thisisparis
THANK YOU to everyone who has chosen to #stayhome THANK YOU to everyone who has chosen to #stayhome and follow guidelines to protect our families, friends and our healthcare system. It really makes a huge difference and the sooner everyone does and we #flattenthecurve, the sooner we can get back to big adventures! . The cities, the trails, the sights...they will all still be there when we return to a life of travel. Please, only visit secluded areas right now. Many National Parks are overwhelmed trying to control crowds and protect their visitors. Now is not the time to be tackling the most popular trails...now is the time to flatten the curve. . I encourage everyone to keep trying to make the best of these weird times! There are so many people out there who need help right now in all different forms. If you're in a position to help, please do so! We're stronger when we help each other. ❤️ [Photo is pre-social distancing, from Oct. 2019]
🌵Social distancing before it was cool 🌵⁠ . 🌵Social distancing before it was cool 🌵⁠ .⁠ To say that 2020 has served us challenges that we didn’t anticipate would be an understatement. We are struggling to adjust to our new normal, including being pregnant in the middle of a global pandemic and starting a marketing business in the midst of a global economic breakdown. BUT, in times like these, we must focus on the positive. ⁠ .⁠ How privileged are most of us to have a roof over our heads, food on the table, connectivity to the rest of the world/education through WiFi, and our families to weather this pandemic with?⁠ .⁠ Be thankful for your health, and pray for those who have been affected by COVID-19. There are so many, and this is nowhere near over ❤️ ⁠ .⁠ Eventually, we will return to “normal” life, we will return to traveling, we will return to a life without social distancing. In the meantime, we are grateful for all that we have! And grateful for those essential workers putting themselves and their families at risk every day to serve others. ⁠ .⁠ Wishing you all health and happiness!⁠ .⁠ #travel #wanderlust #travelblog #travelblogger #instatravel #mytravelgram #instapassport #travelawesome #girlswhotravel #girlsborntotravel #sheisnotlost #dametraveler #ABMTravelBug #sidewalkerdaily #wearetravelgirls #travelgirl #likeamountaingirl #explorewithme #explorerbabes #wanderlife #darlingescapes #wildernessbabes #visitarizona #arizonahiking #arizonahikersguide #hikearizona #sedonaescape
BIG NEWS: We're going to need another passport! A BIG NEWS: We're going to need another passport! A baby boy is joining our flight crew in September! 💙👶🏻💙 . When I first met my husband, I was living *the life,* traveling the world solo and having great adventures. I told him I didn't want any children of my own. I was heartbroken and was running from it by throwing myself into my favorite hobby - traveling. I thought love and a family just weren't in the cards for me. I found out later that this was almost a dealbreaker for my husband, and it kept us in a bit of a limbo in the beginning of our relationship...it could have changed the course of my future! . A year later, we decided together that we wanted children to add to our little family of three (us and my stepson), and we've never looked back! So, here we are, 6 months away from our due date, and I just can't believe the love that God has blessed me with. Four years ago, I never would have guessed that I would have two (soon to be three!) men who have shown me more love than I could imagine. Cheers to all the travels & adventures that lie ahead with my boys! This baby is going to see the world! 💙✈️ . #travel #wanderlust #travelblog #travelblogger #instatravel #mytravelgram #instapassport #travelawesome #girlswhotravel #girlsborntotravel #sheisnotlost #dametraveler #ABMTravelBug #sidewalkerdaily #wearetravelgirls #traveldames #travelgirl #visitarizona #arizonacollective #instagramaz #authenticlovemag #dirtybootsandmessyhair #wanderingweddings #radlovestories #travelcouple #coupleswhotravel #travelbaby #babyannouncement #pregnancyannouncement
✴️ Did you know that you could be earning cash ✴️ Did you know that you could be earning cash back every time you book a hotel or flight? ✴️⁠ .⁠ One of the questions I get asked the most on IG is how do I afford to travel so much? The truth is we also use all kinds of hacks like points+miles, and cash back rebates, to make traveling way more affordable. ⁠ .⁠ If you saw my last story (pinned in my highlights under "Travel Tips"), you'll know that I just got a $120.77 check from @Rakuten this week, by booking our honeymoon suite in Switzerland through @hotelsdotcom, via Rakuten. Rakuten gives you cash back when you shop or book travel through their site, and they have over 2,500 stores & sites to chose from. You guys...screenshot proof is in my story, but I've earned almost $1,600 by booking travel & shopping through them over the last few years! I literally receive a check from them every quarter. It's one of my favorite travel hacks because it's SO easy and the returns are awesome. You can book flights/hotels /cruises on "booking sites" like Hotels.com, Expedia, Travelocity, Priceline, Orbitz, or book hotels directly for most major hotel chains...all through Rakuten! ⁠ .⁠ If you haven't tried it out, I can't recommend it enough. If you check out my stories, I've got a referral link in there that I would be so honored if you used. 🙏🏼 It will take you directly to Rakuten to sign up.

🌞MOOD: Ready for great adventures!🌞 . Nearly 🌞MOOD: Ready for great adventures!🌞 . Nearly 2 years ago, I was invited on the most incredible adventure with @toyotausa, to explore Northern Arizona in their 2018 4Runner, and share those adventures here on IG! I was already a Toyota fan (I had a Corolla and my husband drives a Tundra), but I had no idea how much I was going to fall in LOVE with the 4Runner! That trip was incredible, and I came back thinking of nothing else but starting to save so that I could get my butt seated in one for good one day! Now...we also got engaged on that trip, so we had a wedding and a honeymoon to plan/save for, too, and we don't feel comfortable with consumer debt/car loans, so it took us a LONG time to be able to achieve this goal. But, I FINALLY GOT MY 4RUNNER LAST WEEKEND! Never stop fighting to achieve your goals! We have so many fun adventures planned in it these next few months and I can't wait to see where these roads take us! #Letsgoplaces . #traveltheworld #wanderlife #travelpassport #travelblog #weroamabroad #traveldeeper #wanderlusters #besttravelpics #darlingescapes #shewhowanders #femmetravel #wearetravelgirls #awesomescape #travelgirl #dametraveler #gltlove #babeswhowander #suitcasetraveler #damestravel #sidewalkerdaily #traveldames #wanderwomeninc #travelgirl #likeamountaingirl #wildernessbabes #visitarizona #arizonahiking #arizonahikersguide #hikearizona #slotcanyon

⚠️RAISE YOUR HAND if you still travel without ⚠️RAISE YOUR HAND if you still travel without travel insurance⚠️⁠ .⁠ In all the traveling I've done, I've purchased travel insurance ONCE. I'm that girl that thinks that everything will go okay, and if it doesn't, I'll figure it out.⁠ . ⁠ I told you in my last post that we had some complications on honeymoon and I was going to start sharing the real trials of travel with you...so here it is. Our entire honeymoon was almost canceled 3 days before we left. My husband was dealing with some pretty serious health issues around the time of our wedding/HM. He was sick for 2 months & was barely able to keep food down for weeks on end. Three days before the HM (our 3-week honeymoon, most of which was paid for with flights & miles or non-refundable $), he looked at me and said, "Babe, I don't know if I can do this." My heart sank...I knew how much he was looking forward to this trip...and I also knew how much $ we had invested in it. ⁠ . ⁠ I won't bore you with the medical details, but essentially, up until we boarded the first flight of our honeymoon, we had questions about whether or not we could go. Even throughout the HM, there were moments when we thought we might have to turn back and go home. My man is such a trooper and powered through, but it was NOT easy. ⁠ . ⁠ We were the couple that thought we didn't need travel insurance. We were the "healthy" couple that goes on adventures no matter what comes up! And then, all of a sudden, we weren't. And we vowed never to travel without insurance again. Had we had to cancel that trip...we would have been out THOUSANDS of dollars.

⛔It’s 2020 and something needs to change on my ⛔It’s 2020 and something needs to change on my Instagram⛔ Do you want to know the truth about why I never take photos on the very edge of stunning cliffs (like the “How to be a Travel Influencer” handbook states that you must?) It’s because I would fall off the dang cliff. I’m a clutz. I'm terrified of heights and I straight-up don’t trust myself on ledges because I literally trip on our kitchen rug on a daily basis. It’s embarrassing. But it’s me. So, I stay 6 feet away from the edge of every cliff. I had some traumatic crap happen in 2019 and it made me take a step back & think about what is important. And you know what is NOT important? 1️⃣ Perfect Insta pics on the edges of cliffs that terrify me 2️⃣ Perfect captions that poetically&eloquently explain the beauty of the destination I am in 3️⃣ How many followers I have 4️⃣ Upping my “country count” instead of ENJOYING whatever country I’m in So we’re about to get a lot less perfect and more real around here. I’ll still share lovely photos in stunning destinations because...I LOVE that. I enjoy taking + editing the photos..it feeds my creativity. I don’t think that you should ever stop doing something that makes you happy...even if “everyone is doing it” on IG. BUT you’re going to see the not-so-perfect moments, too. Because let’s be HONEST...travel is not all rainbows & sunsets. Looking at my last few photos, you would think it was. But the truth is, a huge portion of our honeymoon got cancelled mid-trip, and we ALMOST DIDN’T GO ON OUR HONEYMOON because my husband was so sick in the months leading up to it. But I didn’t post about that because it didn’t fit the “inspirational IG formula.” . So, here we go. This is real life & I’m looking forward to sharing more of it with you in 2020. Are you all about perfection or reality on Insta?🔺Tell me in the comments! . #travellove #girlswhowander #travelblog #besttravelpics #weroamabroad #explorerbabes #wearetravelgirls #sheisnotlost #traveldames #welivetotravel #iamtb #girlsborntotravel #ABMTravelBug #explorewithme #explorerbabes #traveleurope #instaeurope #europetravel #openmyworld #mytinyatlas #loveireland #irelandtravel #topirelandphoto #cliffsofmoher
All I want today is to be cuddled up on the couch, All I want today is to be cuddled up on the couch, sipping cocoa and watching Christmas movies...but here I am in the office. 🤷🏻‍♀️ So instead, I'm daydreaming of honeymoon days cuddled up with my husband, drinking wine and staring at the most beautiful mountain we've ever seen. We splurged on a few big-ticket items for our honeymoon, and this suite was one of them. It's called the "Sky & Stars" suite at the Backstage Boutique Hotel Vernissage, named because the room "opens to the heavens" and features a glass ceiling. During our 5 nights at this hotel, we were able to watch the snow fall directly over us AND see a few clear nights with stunning stars. It's an incredible thing to be able to see both a sky full of stars AND the Matterhorn...all from the comfort of your bed. Talk about romantic! 😍🥰❤️ (Scroll for videos+photos of the room!) Can't recommend this hotel enough. The staff was so helpful when we needed to make last minute changes to our itinerary (more on that later), and gave us so many recommendations for our stay. Also, their spa experience and craft cocktails are to-die-for! . . . #travellove #girlswhowander #travelblog #travelblogger #darlingescapes #explorerbabes #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #sheisnotlost #insta_passport #welivetotravel #girlsborntotravel #ABMTravelBug #travelgirlsgo #travelawesome #darlingescapes #explorewithme #explorerbabes #traveleurope #traveltheglobe #wanderlustwednesday #travelpassion #instaeurope #europetravel #visitswitzerland #matterhorn #inLOVEwithSWITZERLAND #wonderful_swiss
Words can't describe the feeling I had when I FINA Words can't describe the feeling I had when I FINALLY laid eyes on the Matterhorn for the first time. It was magic! I had dreamed of seeing this sight for so many years, and to see it in front of me brought tears to my eyes. I have SO MANY posts coming to share the magic of the Matterhorn (including tons of tips for getting there and what to see/do), but for now, I'm taking a moment to admire the boots that got me there. @Bionicausa sent me the Diablo's in Moonbeam White for our honeymoon adventures. They are waterproof, so my feet stayed dry and warm, and they were the perfect neutral shoe to pair with my White Gold Freestyle @sam.newyork puffer. On the day this photo was taken, the sun had finally come out in Zermatt after days of snow, and everything was icy and slick. My husband was sliding all over the place in his boots, but my normally clutzy, ungraceful self was in full control in these - seriously amazing traction. Definitely taking these on my next adventure! 🤗 . . . #travellove #girlswhowander #travelblog #travelblogger #darlingescapes #explorerbabes #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #sheisnotlost #insta_passport #welivetotravel #girlsborntotravel #ABMTravelBug #travelgirlsgo #travelawesome #darlingescapes #explorewithme #explorerbabes #traveleurope #traveltheglobe #wanderlustwednesday #travelpassion #instaeurope #europetravel #visitswitzerland #matterhorn #bionicashoes
I can’t recommend visiting Paris in the off-seas I can’t recommend visiting Paris in the off-season enough if you are going to do the touristy thing. The first time I visited was in May 2014 and the city was PACKED! One hour or longer waits for nearly everything, especially if you didn’t have tickets in advance. This time, we were in the city for the second week of November and found that we walked in without a wait to everything (the Louvre, Arc de Triomphe observation deck, Tour Eiffel observation decks, the Catacombs, etc.) I had experienced most of these things on my first trip to Paris, but this was my husband’s first trip and he wanted to see it all, so it was so nice to have the experience again without the crowds and lines! It changes the game and allows you to see and experience so much more! . . . #travellove #girlswhowander #bestdestinations #amazingdestinations #darlingescapes #explorerbabes #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #sheisnotlost #insta_passport #welivetotravel #girlsborntotravel #ABMTravelBug #travelgirlsgo #travelawesome #darlingescapes #travelguide #explorewithme #explorerbabes #traveleurope #traveltheglobe #wanderlustwednesday #travelpassion #instaeurope #europetravel #eiffeltower #toureiffel #thisisparis
#Fitnesstalk: I’m working hard to feel confident #Fitnesstalk: I’m working hard to feel confident in this new body of mine. This time last year, I was nearly 15lbs heavier and I had never been more in love with my body. I was in the gym 5 days a week lifting weights & running, eating healthy, whole foods hydrating & getting plenty of sleep. My butt was rounder and I was a full cup size larger. I LOVED my body and felt invincible! This year has been another story. I will keep the details private, but my family experienced a period of anxiety, fear and heartbreak this year, followed by a horrible loss. I can’t explain the gut-wrenching heartbreak in words, but it shows all over my body. I could barely eat for weeks, I stopped working out, I cried. Constantly. I lost so much weight that friends started asking if I was okay...if I was doing it on purpose for the wedding? From others, I received well-meaning compliments about how skinny I looked...but I didn’t feel skinny. I felt frail. Skinny does not always equal healthy. These last two months I have really focused on getting back to the gym and upping my daily calories. I’ve focused on mental and emotional health and positivity. It will take me a long time to get back to where I was physically, but in the meantime, I’m focusing on the things I still love about my body and working on acceptance. I am also eating everything in sight on our honeymoon and feeling great about it. ☺️ KNOW THIS: Wherever you are on your fitness journey, there is no place you can’t get back from! Health is not a number on the scale...it’s mental, emotional, spiritual and nutritional, too. Wishing you all good health this week and above all, HAPPINESS. With love from Europe! 🥰 . . . #travellove #girlswhowander #bestdestinations #amazingdestinations #darlingescapes #travelguide #explorewithme #explorerbabes #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #sheisnotlost #insta_passport #welivetotravel #girlsborntotravel #ABMTravelBug #traveleverywhere #travelgirlsgo #travelawesome #letsflyawayto #globetrotters #girlswholift #fitchicks #fitness #traveltheglobe #nassau #bahamas
Our honeymoon officially began one week ago tonigh Our honeymoon officially began one week ago tonight and for this first week, we have focused on nothing but intense relaxation. This year has been rough in so many ways, and I can’t explain how amazing it has felt to just forget about the world and get lost with my husband. We’re so grateful for this opportunity to reset and enjoy our new marriage! The next two and a half weeks will be somewhat less relaxing, as we have so many incredible destinations still ahead! 🥰
My Dalton hiking boots from @bionicashoes taking m My Dalton hiking boots from @bionicashoes taking me to new places! ☺️🌄 I've attempted the Cathedral Rock hike twice before, and never made it to the top either time! The first time in 2017, we had to turn back halfway up the rock because a lightening storm in the area was getting too close. The second time in 2018, we went to shoot our engagement photos and stopped at the first landing, because let's just say...doing this hike in a gown and high heels isn't exactly recommended. It's way too steep! This weekend I FINALLY made it to the summit, better equipped this time with my new favorite hiking boots. When Bionica sent me the Daltons to test out, I was so excited about the cute Euro-style boot, but figured something this gorgeous must be more for around-the-town adventures than "real hiking." BUT these boots have amazing grip, which I put to the test on the steep boulders of Cathedral Rock! Luckily, we had a dry, monsoon-free day in Sedona, but I would have been fine in the Daltons either way because the leather is waterproof and seam-sealed to protect you on ALL adventures. Seriously can't wait to take these on more adventures! 🤗
And just like that...we're husband & wife. ♥️ And just like that...we're husband & wife. ♥️ My heart is so full and I still can't believe I'm married to the love of my life! October 12 was the most incredible day. We had family and friends travel from all over the United States to Cottonwood, Arizona, to celebrate our love with us. We brought two families together, and JT, Tre & I *officially* became a little family. Our hearts are so full! 🥰 I'll share some photos of the wedding decor in my story once we get them back, but we had little touches of our love for travel & adventure all over the place! ✈️🌎 For now, here's a sneak peek of our photos from our amazing photographer @carmelajoyphotography!
Walking into wedding weekend like... 🥰 Family a Walking into wedding weekend like... 🥰 Family and friends are starting to arrive into town to celebrate with us this weekend and my heart is already so full! I feel so grateful for this beautiful life and this incredible man standing by my side. Cheers to FOREVER! 🍾👰🏻🤵🏻💒
