34

Hello, I'm Julia and today I'm turning 34, which, in my opinion, sounds much older than it is. Because today I feel happier and more vibrant than I have in years!

Newport Travel Guide

Newport will always hold a special place in my heart. Anel and I got married there. My parents got married there. And I've been visiting the island every summer since I was a baby. We had our babymoon in Newport, Bootsie learned to swim there, and Amalia even took her first steps there. My grandfather used to take me for Del's Lemonade as our special activity together and now my dad buys it for my own daughter.

Clean Swap Challenge

I'm so excited about today's post because I'm sharing really some really easy ways to live a more sustainable life and reduce your carbon footprint. I was inspired by my friend Jess's #cleanswapchallenge to share the clean swaps that my family and I are making at home. These swaps have been great for us and haven't made us feel like we had to give anything up.
