Hubby and I had some good times in 2019, with lots of experiences taking place instead of the exchange of material gifts. It's something I love to do and intend to continue throughout our life together. If you've been following for a while, you may recall I talked about travel tradition - we collect magnets when we take trips and gather experiences together.

Today, I want to share our 2018 magnet collection.













Savannah, GA | May 2018












Las Vegas, NV | December 2018








I took a few extra trips, one with one of my sisters to Savannah, one to Phoenix for a work trip, and a Halloween tour with my other sister, but I don't buy magnets for trips without hubby. It's our special collection together. I'm so excited to see where 2019 will take us!

    I love botanical gardens- always so beautiful! I collect shot glasses from my trips. Started when I was younger haha but they’ll be fun to display - I have Some out now but my collection is getting big!

      My sister used to collect shot glasses and I would always buy her one when I went places (even as a young teenager, lol). I love knowing what people collect from their trips. It's such a fun insight to have.

    I think it's awesome you guys have this consistent tradition! We started a tradition early on that we would only ever buy practical souvenirs from our trips--things we knew that we needed for our kitchen or home. We bought our salt and pepper shakers on our honeymoon, an ice cream scoop on a trip to Minnesota, a serving spoon from Japan, and things like that. :P The trip we took in 2018 was to Hong Kong, and it was so much fun--my souvenir was a keychain, which was practical because my house keys, I had broken my keychain shortly before the trip, and I needed a new one! haha! I love it because all these years later, I think about our Minnesota trip every time I eat ice cream at home. :)

      That is such a good idea! I love that you buy practical things. I'm so rough on stuff - I will feel so sad if I ever broke or messed up a practical item that was also a souvenir. But that's such an amazing idea! I love that it brings back memories by such "mundane" tasks.
