dancing with the fireflies

I booked a surprise date night for my love in Kentucky on our way to Michigan to see my dad. He thought we were stopping overnight in Lexington to break up the drive, which was partially true, but really I just wanted a chance to cozy up in an airstream with him. 

Keeping a regular “Us” night, ideally once a week is key.

It keeps things fun and slows things down so we are present for the beautiful relationship we have together. We work, live, travel, play — we do everything together and sometimes it can be easy to just get caught up in all the things we need to do or want to do and all the places we want to go. I always say we have a “date life” because we get to do so many amazing things together, but it’s a gift to be able to celebrate each other every week and just make “Us” a priority. We had so much fun here, so many hidden gems in this city.

But first, coffee in Knoxville because it's not a trip to Michigan without kicking it off with K Brew.
