rendezvous with cassidoo

Hello friends!

Hope you had a great week! I was off in North Carolina for a wedding this past week. I had never been there before, and it was beautiful! Heads up, I'm going to be traveling for the next couple weekends, and probably won't be sending this out. Think of it as your chance to have one less email preventing you from getting to inbox zero. Anyway, onwards!

Something that interested me this week

Honestly, it's been pretty hectic around here so I don't have much to say in this section! The wedding last week was great, my sister Cami and I roadtripped a bit around the East and saw Dollywood (which we didn't know existed) and the Smoky Mountains for the first time, which was fun. This next week my husband and I are *finally* going on our honeymoon! Really looking forward to some traveling and then Thanksgiving with family.

So, all this being said, have a great week, and if you're in the United States, I hope you voted!
