Nope. It was real. A little too real if you ask me lol (but not really lol at all). However... Despite 2016's low moments, there were also many high moments that I feel the need to acknowledge and reflect on in appreciation. So let's take a stroll down memory lane and recap last year's most ...
My Word For 2017 + 7 Things I Plan To Accomplish This Year
Happy, Happy New Year! I hope you don't mind my getting right to it and stating that I, Setarra Kennedy, wholeheartedly believe that 2017 is going to my/our year. I'm saying it now, saying it out loud and owning it. This year, I will turn 30. This year, I will finally be done with grad ...
Santa Claus, His Santa Helper & The Santa Helper’s Husband
Ya'll... After 4 weeks of working as a Santa Helper at my local mall, I finally managed to wear Charles down and get him to take pics with me and Santa Claus. :) Today's post is a short but sweet one... Just dropping in to say "Haaaaay!" and "Happy Holidays!" My last day of 9-5 work was ...
My First Dance Performance At ECDC in 5 Years
Now that I'm officially done recapping our trip to Seattle, I hope you don't mind if I get a little personal today. Personal as in dance personal. If you've been following this blog since day 1, you may already know my dance story. But in case you don't, below is a quick synopsis. When ...

Planning a trip to Seattle and not sure where to begin with your travel planning? Allow me to share with you the full itinerary of what Charles and I ate, saw and did during our 4 day trip to Seattle this past October as a starting point in your travel planning. Emphasis on starting point ...
The Perfect Christmas Tree For Our #BlackAndYellowHome
I wish I could give an update on an apartment design project but with the holidays upon us, our "home decor" budget has been temporarily allocated to the "Christmas gift" budget. As a result, we haven't done much around our black and yellow home. Don't worry tho. Things will definitely ...
Last Day In Seattle – Charles Style
When it comes to travel, I'm the "planner" and Charles is the "go with the flow-er" in our relationship... If it were up to the hubby, we would get lost and wander aimlessly taking in the sights as they come for every trip. Me? I figure if we're spending all this money to travel, we better see as ...
Day 3 In Seattle // Ballard Locks And Snoqualmie Falls
Day 3 in Seattle marked our last day with the car rental so we focused on checking out city sites that weren't as easily accessible by public transportation. Below is a list of majorly free things we did after watching the sunrise over Seattle. :) 1) The Fremont Troll - A public art sculpture ...
FamsGiving 2016
I think it's safe to say that regardless of whether you protested or celebrated Thanksgiving, everyone in the U.S. was more than ready for the 4 day weekend the holiday provided. Yes, I totally am aware that the true meaning of Thanksgiving is phucked up. Cuz it is - super phucked up. However, the ...
Day Trip From Seattle To Vancouver // Part 2
Following lunch at Bon's Off Broadway, Charles and I hopped in the car, drove through Downtown Vancouver and across the bridge to check out Granville Island's Public Market. To be fair, Granville Island isn't actually an island - it's a peninsula located across False Creek across from Downtown ...
October & A Bit Of November Life Happening
1) In case you missed my post about it, I got braces. Yes, you heard right. Braces at the ripe age of 29... So sexy/nerdy, I know. Since I'm trying to get over being self-conscious about wearing them, here's a rough a$$ no-make up selfie of me right after my orthodontist put them on to seal the ...
Day Trip From Seattle To Vancouver // Part 1
The first thing Charles and I did when our plane landed in Seattle was pick up our car rental and head to our Airbnb in the Capitol Hill area of the city. For those interested, here is the cute studio apartment we stayed at - the rooftop view was the deal sealer for us. Once checked in, we walked ...
