There She Goes: Now Featuring Ramsay Gourd!
Hello & Happy Thursday
Welcome to your weekly edition of There She Goes ❤ We are back with updates, uplifting things, and even a few fun facts.
I’ve been away the past two weeks, as I prepared to escape to the mountains and elope with my now husband 🎉 Almost exactly two years ago, we were engaged in Switzerland, and last week we eloped in Silverthorne, CO! We had the most wonderful sunrise ceremony and a talented friend of ours captured the special moments for our loved ones back home.
If you’ve been reading for a few years, you’ll remember the time that I was backpacking Europe and would share facts about the places we visited. To celebrate this time, I thought I’d have some fun and share tidbits about Summit County, Colorado at the end of this newsletter. Enjoy!
New New New!
Brand new vibrant Ramsay Gourd needlepoint kits and canvases are here! Perfect for your summer vibe.
