Love these Hope! I think Allen and I need an ice cream date on our jet as well. And I love the idea of a styled shoot for your anniversary. We’ve never done that and I would love to have some good pics of us. I’m hoping my sisters get to come visit us this year so I can show them all the new things to do here. Hope your 2019 is amazing girl!
Yes you guys do! The ice cream date is one of the things I’m most excited for. I can’t wait to do the styled beach shoot, I think you guys should do one too (and incorporate the beach and some of your favorite things)! Same to you lady!
I miss your YouTube videos! I have followed you for years and have always loved you! You are so sweet! Hope you have an awesome year! ❤
I’ll be filming this weekend! The holiday rush wore me out at work. Definitely one of my goals to post more this year! You’re too sweet! Thank you so much for commenting!
What a great way to goal set! I hope you hit every one of these!!!!

I love this idea! I might have to borrow your template and jot down my own 100 things. A few of these I had actually discussed with my husband. Like the water (I believe I said 6 cups… bold move).
By the way, I watched a segment on Martha Stewart’s old show and learned how to fold a fitted sheet. I’m sure you can find it floating around YouTube.
