Jackie didn't used to care anywhere NEAR much as me about using fancy wrapping paper. Now, she's finally spent enough Christmases with me that she's turned into a fancy wrapping FIEND. And I LOVE it. Merry Christmas, y'all! #HerRibbonCurlingGameIsOnPoint

I know I may go a little overboard with my Christmas decorations (just ask Jackie), but I just LOVE the way the house looks this time of year. 😍😍😍 #CHRISTMASEXPLOSION #ImBasicallyBuddyTheElf #WithoutTheTights #SimplyHavingaWonderfulChristmastime (at Fredericksburg, Virginia)

Duncan has been watching me all night while I put the lights on the tree (waiting for Jackie to get home to hang any ornaments, of course), while I watch the most adorable Christmas episode of any show ever made. #itsTheMostWonderfulTimeOfTheYear #SpongebobSquarepants #SantasComingTonightTonight #HisNoseWasHUGEWithChristmasJoy

I hope your Thanksgiving is as happy as Jill's post-Turkey Trot face. #TurkeyTrot #IveGotStamina #ExceptNotReally #HappyThanksgiving (at Downtown Fredericksburg)

Wearing my Hufflepuff colors PROUDLY today to see Newt Scamander in Fantastic Beasts! #fantasticbeastsandwheretofindthem #Hufflepuff #HufflepuffPride #EddieRedmayneIsFORSUREaHufflepuff #JKsFavorite #SuckItGryffindor (at Regal Cinemas Fredericksburg 14)

After surviving the Colonial Williamsburg Ghost Tour, carving pumpkins, and watching the friendliest (and cuuuutest!) little '90s ghost there is, I am READY FOR HALLOWEEN TONIGHT. Bring it on, trick-or-treaters! #HappyHalloween #OooohhDevonSawa #CasperTheDreamyGhostAMIRITE

This lady was even happier than I anticipated she would be yesterday during her surprise birthday trip to Williamsburg, complete with a mead tasting, some CW time, lots of wine, and a ghost tour. I love surprising her, and. I'll keep doing it until she figures me out 😉😉😉 #ColonialWilliamsburg #TheCheeseShop #ILoveNerdyGhostStories (at Colonial Williamsburg)

#TBT to when I got to have this snazzy lady as my date to our first gay wedding! Girl you WEARIN' that vest 😍😍😍 #werk #SheCleansUpGood #AllGayEverything #TakeMeBackToCalifornia (at The 1909)

Going back to my normal, properly proportioned workday breakfast has got me missing my CA breakfasts something fierce. #LosAngeles #BreakfastTacos #AllAvocadoEverything #SoMuchDelicious (at Los Angeles, California)

Love is love is love is love. #LoveShaq2016 (at The 1909)

Tourist goals! Hollywood sign? ✔ Swimming in the Pacific Ocean? ✔ #SantaMonicaPier #GriffithObservatory #SwimmingIsAGenerousTerm #IGotKnockedDownByAWave #JackieLaughed #Rude (at Santa Monica, California)

Our second baseball stadium of the week was a success, complete with a grand slam, Dodger dogs, a Dodger win, and a really warm welcome from the fans to a couple of out-of-towners (who were proudly sporting Orioles jerseys). One more stadium checked off! #LADodgers #WellSeeYouInThePlayoffs #JackieKnowsWhoTommyLasordaIsNow #IDontBelieveWhatIJustSaw (at Dodger Stadium)

This town is perfect for a nerdy, touristy movie fan like me! #SoManyStars #StarStruck #Hollywood #LosAngeles (at Hollywood Walk of Fame)

Having these views of the coast made an entire day of driving feel like a breeze. A Pacific Ocean breeze, to be exact. #NoFilter #PacificCoastHighway #BigSur #WeStoppedForPicturesSoManyTimes #TheViewRocked (at California Pacific Coast Highway)

My California lunches so far on this trip have been on POINT. #Sourdough #SanFrancisco #BigSur #Noms

This is our rental car for our drive down the coast (not our choice; this was the car pre-selected for us). Do I like VW beetles? No. Do I think it's probably the most appropriate vehicle for a CA road trip? Oh, heck yeah. #PacificCoastHighway #VWBug #WeNamedHerGoldie #AllTheCarJams (at California Pacific Coast Highway)

You've been lovely, San Francisco. Now on to LA, complete with a drive down the coast! #SanFrancisco #GoldenGateBridge #IllMissThisWeather (at San Francisco, California)
