August was a HUGE month. This month I turned 38, had a lot of fun times in Prague, and then went to Iceland for 13 days with my friend Amanda of A Dangerous Business.
But those 13 days — did we EVER make them count. In blogger style, we moved fast, did SO much, and photographed it all — 20+ waterfalls, eight hot springs and swimming pools, two Hobbit House-type stays, plus whale watching, horseback riding, a wild RIB boat journey, and one epic volcano hike.
Yep, this trip would run most people into the ground (and at one point we joked how much our partners would have hated the pace of the trip). But we got material for SO many blog posts. I can’t wait to start writing.
Add in some good times in Prague and it made for one truly excellent month!

Finding our wedding venues! After checking out a lot of places and feeling less than enthused, finally Charlie and I found two great spots for the ceremony and reception of our May wedding!
SO MUCH IN ICELAND. Iceland was such a fantastic trip, and we did way too much to summarize here. So I’ll list a few of the top highlights.
Hiking to Fagradalsfjall Volcano was an all-time adventure. This volcano began erupting on August 3, and we decided to hike it on our first full day in Iceland, August 13. We joined the masses hiking a newly created path before hopping though lava fields. The…
