Bill and Gloria, I made it! Iā€™m thankful this is my last connecting flight for a while!

We all know girlsā€™ night is sacredā€¦ but girlsā€™ night at a steakhouse? Thatā€™s a whole different love language. Oak Steakhouse hosted us, which meant we got to sample way more dishes than we normally would! And let me tell you, the standouts were the bone marrow, the steak, and the mashed potatoes.
Now, hear me outā€¦ I am not a mashed potato person. But these? These were different. We looked at each other like, ā€œWaitā€¦ why are these so good?ā€
Iā€™ve had so many messages over the past few months saying Oak is the go-to spot for birthdays, anniversaries, and all the big moments. After this dinner, I completely understand why. Thereā€™s something about the cozy seating, the warm lighting, and that beautiful view that makes the whole place feel celebratory without trying too hard. The energy is relaxed but elevated and the service was excellentā€¦ perfect for catching up, splitting bites, and laughing way too loudly over a table full of food. šŸ„©šŸŒ™āœØ

Before we moved across the country, people had thoughts. A lot of them.
ā€œArkansas??ā€
ā€œYouā€™re doing what?ā€
ā€œThat is the wrong direction!ā€

I have also had people say there is no way we moved to a place where we did not know a single person. But we really did. It was a big move and a scary move, but you cannot grow unless you are uncomfortable.

Five years later, career changes, new friends, a whole new chapter, and not a single regret.

If you are getting ready for a big move and people are doubting your choices, do not let their fear become your fear. Trust your gut and go build the life that feels like yours.

We have loved every place we have lived. Toronto, Buffalo, Long Island, Detroit. There are things we love and things we miss, things we have and things we wish we had. But we are grateful every single day that we took a chance on a place we honestly could not have found on a map.

We start dental hygiene and anatomy young in this family šŸ˜…. To be clear he still wants to be Spider-Man when he grows up, but even spider man needs to know how to floss

We are partnering with to share how better transportation and community planning are helping this place stay, well, vibrant. šŸŒ‡

When we first moved here, everyone talked about the biking. šŸš² People even move to Northwest Arkansas just for that, and honestly, that seemed wild to us! But now, five years later, we get it.

The area keeps growing, and so do the ways to get around. From biking and walking to the expanding bus systems, every new connection makes our community feel a little closer. If you blink, you might miss the latest trail or route that just opened.

We have been lucky to call NWA home for a while now, and it is amazing to see how much it has changed. From morning coffee runs to late-night bites, having safer, more connected ways to get around makes exploring that much better.

There is always more work to be done, but when you stop and look at how far things have come, it is pretty incredible.

Because the best part of Northwest Arkansas has always been how easy it is to feel connected to people, to places, and to what matters mostšŸ’œšŸ’™

We landed and I knew my connection was going to be tight, probably impossible. But since my app hadnā€™t alerted me that boarding had started, I figured Iā€™d try and run for it anyway.
Some trips feel like a calm walk in the park. Others feel like playing Jumanji on hard mode.
You win some, you lose some, but the thing is neither happens all the time.

In case you miss traveling, hereā€™s a video of me sprinting through Chicago airport.

Fall in the South is pure chaos, but the kind weā€™ve learned to love.
Itā€™s 40 today and 75 on Saturday, so we just recycled our spring content because honestly, it all feels the same.
Same patios, same iced coffees, same ā€œdo I wear a sweater or am I going to regret this by noonā€ kind of mornings.

The leaves might change if they feel like it, and weā€™ll still call it fall just because thereā€™s a pumpkin drink involved.
But thatā€™s part of the charm here. The weather doesnā€™t make sense, yet somehow it feels right.

We donā€™t get crisp fall days for long, so weā€™ll take whatever version of autumn Arkansas decides to give us.

I promised Iā€™d stay at the childrenā€™s museum for as long as Hudson wanted, and it turned into a four-hour adventure at Explore & More. My nephew didnā€™t want to leave, and honestly, neither did I. Thereā€™s something about watching kids lose track of time that reminds you how fun curiosity can be.

Each floor had something new to discover: a water zone, pretend shops, and a rooftop play area overlooking the city. Itā€™s colorful, hands-on, and just the right mix of chaos and creativity.

If youā€™re planning a family day in Buffalo, this oneā€™s worth blocking off an afternoon for. Just donā€™t make any plans right after, youā€™ll be here awhile.
