Viva Las Vegas 2025
So I went to Las Vegas again. For the third time in 2 years. “Kate, you must really love Las Vegas!” Truly, I do not, but one of my dear friends was celebrating her 40th birthday and I’m always in for an adventure. So, I packed my bags and headed to the desert. On this…

Sweet St. Lucia
Y’all, I just turned 40. To soften the blow, I decided to spend my birthday on the beautiful island of St. Lucia. For some reason, St. Lucia has been calling to me for years. And conveniently for those of us with birthdays during hurricane season, it is rarely seriously affected by storms, thanks to its…

For years, I’ve had friends, family, and co-workers coming to me asking for recommendations and help planning trips. Recently, I learned about the opportunity to become a…

You Betcha We Loved Minneapolis
This past weekend, Husband and I took a little jaunt out to the Midwest. Ostensibly, we were there to watch the Orioles play the Twins in the last series of the season. But I love a good adventure (and an opportunity to scratch a new state off of my scratch map), so I was on…

A Big Easy Anniversary: New Orleans
A few weeks ago, Husband and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary. Husband decided many months ago that he wanted to plan a trip for us to a surprise (to me) destination. He booked the plane tickets, hotel, and some activities before revealing our destination in a Google Slides presentation. Ladies, if he wants to,…
