Short trip to NYC to visit my little brother and was surprised with the NYC Marathon outside my door. I’ve never been up-close to a marathon before, so this was very interesting. I was really inspired by all the faces; over 50,000 participated and finished! Wow. And oh, I love Brooklyn in the fall. Ate at Romans for the first time too and it was fabulous! I hope to go back soon.

When you love your wedding dress SO MUCH that you take it on your honeymoon!!! :)
Christina’s dress was made and designed by Made with Love Bridal. They are an Austrian based company and work with clients worldwide. I’m obsessed with how comfortable this dress is for Christina and it fits her like a glove. And she literally rolled it up in a suitcase and look at how great it looks on her! Just amazing. I love this girl so much.

and your form
and color
are the way
I love them.”

I feel most alive when I travel. This is my fourth time to the island of Oahu, Hawaii.
I love this little spot on the North Shore…
Go measure the heavens with your span;
go weigh the mountains in the scales;
go take the ocean’s water and calculate each drop;
go count the sand upon the sea’s wide shore;
and when you have accomplished all of this,
then you can tell how much He loves you!
He has loved you long.
He has loved you well.
He will love you forever.

I was so blessed to be able to travel to Hong Kong for the first time in my life. These photos do not represent the typical Hong Kong in my head, and I’m totally okay with it. In fact, I believe God blessed me with parts of Hong Kong that He knew I would truly enjoy. Thankful for friends that are generous and hospitable. Traveling is so inspiring. The two areas that I’m featuring here are Sai Wan Beaches in Sai Kung and Lamma Island. Both are so beautiful and unique. I would totally go back and re-visit just these places.
