Hi y’all! You’ve probably noticed (and definitely noticed if you follow me on Instagram) that I’ve been off on a little jaunt to the Dominican Republic. Well, I am BACK! I’ll be back in full force tomorrow with the Friday Five (Fave Favorite Winter Activities) but wanted to drop by and say thanks to my wonderful guest posters – Elena, Deborah, Stephanie and Erika and thanks to you all for welcoming them! I’ll be sharing some honeymoon fun in the next couple weeks but for now here’s a couple of preview pictures…

Sigh. Even looking at these pics makes me want to go back! It was SUCH a wonderful time. I will share more details about what we did and my recommendations if you decide to go to the Dominican Republic soon!
