Sweet and Simple

I am currently sitting on my bed, coffee in hand, staring blankly at my laptop and listening to Freckles snore as she naps. This scene has come to define my weekends and many of my weekdays lately. Adventures are few and far between. School is far too overwhelming, work is far too constricting and my health is far too unpredictable to really do much exploring.

Christopher and I's date nights are uncomplicated. We make dinner together. We watch a random documentary. We snack on a homemade dessert or hot chocolate. Our dates are not terribly exciting, but they are just what we need to rejuvenate and enjoy each others company. There is a certain amount of tranquility in this simplicity. This might make for a boring blog, especially now that I have finished writing our honeymoon posts. After our whirlwind of a wedding season however, this seems to be just what the doctor ordered.

Freckles loves long naps, but she also adores long walks. There photos were taken at one of our old haunts, Prentiss Woods. This is a very dog-friendly forest and offers quite a refreshing walk. Once again, just what the doctor ordered.

I hope that you enjoy the rest of your weekend!
