Dallas Bucket List - an update
So far I’ve been making pretty slow progress on my to do list, but finally this weekend I crossed off three of the most important items.
We spent Friday night in Fort Worth and started the night with fajitas and margaritas at Joe T’s. I had been there once before, so it wasn’t a bucket list item, but it was equally as fun an experience as last time. Billy Bob’s was the...
Thailand - Day Trip out of Bangkok
One of the highlights of our trip was an all day tour that we did outside of Bangkok. I booked Tours with Tong after ready shining reviews on TripAdvisor, and they did not disappoint.
Our guide Jay and a driver picked us up at 7AM sharp and we headed out of the city to the Damnoensaduak Floating Market. It was a two hour driver, but we were entertained by the scenery and Jay’s story...

Thailand - Phranakorn Nornlen
We’ve been back from Thailand since Sunday and I continue to reflect on what an incredible trip it was. I don’t go on week long vacations very often, so there is lots to tell! I will have to break it down into a few posts. First…our hotel in Bangkok. I had originally booked an inexpensive hotel that I found on TripAdvisor based solely on the good reviews that I read. I think it...

Let's not forget Dallas
While I have been traveling a lot recently, I’ve also done some really fun things in Dallas. It’s always nice to have a good mix of weekends spent away and weekends spent at home. Here are some of the Dallas highlights from recent weeks.
Bowling at Bowl & Barrel - Cool new place, but expensive so best to go bowl with a group.
Klyde Warren Park - Seriously obsessed with this...
WatchSeriously, this Maui whale watch was incredible.
Dallas To Do List
During my last semester of college in Nashville, my roommates and I created a list of the things we needed to do before we moved away. We had a great time working our way through it, and had checked every item off before we graduated. With my impending move to Philadelphia this summer, I have created a similar list for Dallas/Texas and have already started to cross things off. I have done many fun...

Business School
I have spent the majority of the last year studying, taking tests, filling out applications, writing essays and doing interviews. All with the goal of getting into the best MBA program that I could. The week before Christmas, the seemingly never-ending process finally came to an end when I heard back from the three schools that I applied to. I was beyond excited to be accepted into my two top...
Still here...
The fact that I haven’t posted in two solid weeks may have given you the clue that February has been a very busy month so far. In the best possible way though! I have been out of the town the last three weekends, which means my apartment is in disarray, I have tons of DVR TV to catch up on, and I haven’t had a second to upload and share pictures from my trips. I will give you the brief...

Riverhorse - Park City, Utah
I have lots to tell from my Christmas week in Park City, but I thought I’d start by sharing some pictures from an incredible dinner we had at a restaurant on Main Street called The Riverhorse on Main. My aunt, uncle and cousins have eaten there in past years and have raved about it so we joined them this time around. It did not disappoint.
It is upscale, but still cozy. Exactly what you...
It’s December 1st and I’m officially in the Christmas spirit. It can be somewhat difficult when it continues to be in the high 70s outside, but my apartment is decorated and my Michael Buble holiday pandora station is ready to go. I even have most of my shopping done. I can’t believe in just three weeks I’ll be having a snowy Christmas in Utah!
