Stay-cation Day #4 was the official start of our family reunion. Aunt Patti arranged a beach house for everyone to come stay and the next few days were strictly reserved for sand, sun, and waves. We body-surfed the time away and then would go back to the beach house to relax and visit. We had…
Is there a difference between the Jumpsuit and the Romper? I do not know. Maybe rompers are shorts? Shorts give the idea that you are playful and flirty. And that you like to romp. Romping is much different than jumping, you know. I always call this one a romper, but it’s technically a jumpsuit, according…
It’s been a busy week for mister Stephen. He started swim class, which he hates. So naturally, I signed him up for 4 more classes. He chipped a tooth. Hit his noggin on the corner of a chair and I didn’t even notice the tooth until like 8 hours later. He’ll lose that one anyway,…
Stay-cation Day #3: Long Beach I picked up my other nephew, Luke, from the airport on Monday morning. We flew him in from Missouri so that he wouldn’t miss any of the fun. Then we figured a sort of low-key place to hang out is the aquarium. All 3 boys seemed to really enjoy it.…
Stay-cation Day #2: Disneyland! (You knew this was coming right?) We actually went to Disneyland twice during this stay-cation. I know, it sounds nuts. My sister and I just knew that when we went with a bigger group, we wanted to be flexible and not feel like we had to squeeze everything in. So we…
There are going to be a bunch of Going Places posts coming up since we had a busy little week over here! My sister and nephew came to visit. Of course we had a great time. You’ll see. For now, let’s start with Saturday at the Farmer’s Market. It’s become a weekend tradition of ours…
I really have no business writing about anything that goes on in a kitchen. But at least you know if I spent time in there and made something, its going to be super easy. I would like to dedicate this post to avocados. Earth’s most perfect fruit. They’re a fruit right? I love them so…
Sometimes I go to weddings. And sometimes I don’t have time to shop for events like that. And sometimes, I’ll remember that I bought a dress at H&M about 4 years ago that still has the $20 sale tags attached. Sometimes I wish I had tried the dress on sooner, so I could have seen…
Once in awhile, Paul has to work weekends. And when he doesn’t, it seems like I do! Weekends where we just relax are pretty rare these days. This particular weekend, he had a real estate shoot. I wouldn’t normally go with him, but we figured since it was in beautiful Newport Beach, he could quickly…
I’ll be the first to admit that sometimes I get stuck in a style rut. Some days being dressed at all is a huge accomplishment. Well, instead of calling it a “rut” I prefer to just say I’m wearing my uniform. I wear some variation of this outfit pretty much every day. My closet is a…
