Check out some of my favorite places to stay, eat, and things to do!

Earlier this month I got to celebrate my friend’s birthday in the most glamorous way– afternoon tea at The Ballantyne Hotel! She was so excited for a fancy girls’ afternoon and insisited we all wear hats. But I told her I’d only be able to attend if I could bring Teagan.
