How to pack a weekend away bag
How to pack a weekend away bag Today’s post is about packing a weekend away bag. The weekend that I packed for this trip was for Charlotte. I was going to visit family and go wedding dress shopping. The good news is I found my dress! – Determine the size of the bag and what you need to bring The first thing for packing a bag, you need to determine what your agenda is.

Myrtle Beach, SC
Myrtle Beach, SC This about my evening/afternoon in Myrtle Beach, SC. My mom, younger brother, Hunter, Anthony and myself went on Friday afternoon. We went to visit my Auntie Anne, and my cousins, Rick and Julie. When we got there my aunt was waiting in the lobby of the time share for us. They stay for a week in Myrtle Beach every year. We went up to their room. While there we caught up with them. Then we went down to the grills and cooked some awesome hamburgers and hot dogs. They were so tasty. Then we walked around a little bit. After that we hung out on the…

A weekend in Charlotte
A weekend in Charlotte Friday, June 1st, 2018 We woke up at 3:30am to go to Charlotte. We left my house at 4:20am. We got to Charlotte around 8:30am. While my mom and aunt went to visit my uncle, Anthony and I went to dunkin donuts, but Anthony wanted a medicine ball. So we went to unusually dirty Starbucks (Side Note: Starbucks doesn’t sell the tea that they used to make a traditional medicine ball) Whatever we got was disgusting. The cashier told us it was similar to a medicine ball. The tea was so bad that we couldn’t drink it. We ended dumping it out and buying coffee from…

How I edit my Photos
How I edit my photos I start off picking out a photo of my liking. This one happens to be from mine and Anthony’s friend’s wedding. I go on Facetune to edit the photos. I start off with the whitening feature of Facetune. I usually whiten teeth, white backgrounds, and white clothing. Depending on the lightening things can look yellow quickly. Then I go to the smoothing feature to make sure I don’t have a bumpy or wrinkly looking face. Finally, I go to the detail feature and enhance the eyes and other areas that I want to look more lively. This is how I edit my photos. Thank you…

9 Tips for choosing a wedding venue
9 Tips for choosing a wedding venue This is a similar guide to how I and Anthony choose our wedding venue. We went with a pretty basic list of things to think of. 1.) Choose a venue that will align with what you imangine in your mind. That being said also be open to changing your vision a little bit. 2.) Know your guest list. Know about how many people you want their. Our venue can hold 120 people max. We decided for comfort to keep it between 100-110. 3.) Know your budget. You don’t go into debt to have a really expensive place. Anthony and I paid under $1000…

Our Engagement Story
Our Egagement Story Friday, March 9th, 2018 Yes, the title is accurate. I did get engaged. The story starts out in Ecuador on on Friday, March 9th, 2018. Anthony and I decided to see if we could find a ring I loved. We ended up finding my engagement ring. I absolutely loved it from the moment I saw it. The ring ended up being a really good deal. We got it in Otavalo, Ecuador. It is also known as the open air market. The vendor was so nice and super patient. He was picking out rings that fit the style I was already looking at. He was so helpful in…

Feburary Update
As I write this post I am high up in the air somewhere heading to Ecuador. Am I nervous? Yes. Am I excited? Absolutely! Am I praying hard that I say the right things and really show these people the true love of God? YES YES YES! Feburary has really been a whirlwind of a month. Myself, Anthony and the rest of our mission trip group have been counting down the weeks/days until we left. We have been prepping, packing and most importantly praying. I have never thought in a million years that I would be flying with a group of college students to Ecuador to show the people of…
