1.Tell us a little about you and your blog.

At the suggestion of my wonderful husband, I started our blog to document all of our adventures, as we like to call them. From big adventures like learning to cook gluten free, to digging out and finishing our basement, to little adventures like new favorite things and lessons God is teaching us, we love living each adventure together. The Adventures of D and V is a lifestyle blog that is about...well, our life!

Guess what guys? Seven years ago today, 5 months to the day after laying eyes on each other for the first time, I married the most perfect guy on earth (You can try to argue it, but you'd still be wrong. He really is the most perfect).

What!?! Seven years! We were just babies then it seems like. And there's no way it's been 7 years. To celebrate my love whisked me off to NYC.

So while I'm eating pizza, buying cheap knock-offs, walking around the park, and exploring the MET for the next few days, you guys get to check out these three fantastic Handmade Gift ideas.
