This is not my brilliant idea – thank you Susannah Conway – but I am happy to embrace it this year!
The original idea is to post just a photo each day instead of a whole blog post ….. but I am not even going to commit to that.
There *may* [...]
Joe and Kaitlin’s baby is due in about a month!!!!
Which means these last couple weeks (and next couple weeks) are full of baby shopping, baby showers and maternity photos….
Between the 2 of them, Joe and Kaitlin have so many family and friends that she actually is having 4 baby showers!!
Little Joey [...]
About 18 months ago Andrew and I went to Italy ….. as you likely know from the pages of Italy blog posts I did …. I fell in love with the idea of of a glass bottle of water for serving …. love.
That year, Maggie got us a a cute water carafe of [...]
I love vintage….. And I love a deal ….
So when we stopped by Out of the Closet a week or so ago, I had a problem. As in, I saw too much stuff that I wanted to bring home with me …..
Check out our awesome haul:
Some super adorable little tea cups:

Now that Daniel is in Chicago, it’s a lot easier to get together with Jenae. Only 3 schedules to coordinate instead of 4.
So a couple Sundays ago, Jenae came down to do lunch and movies with us ….. The Stand is one of our favorite spots for Sunday lunch.
Andrew and his co-workers watch Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives during their lunch …. One of the great things about living in Los Angeles is so many of these well-known foodie places are within driving distance.
One of the ones from that show – Schooner or Later – is down south [...]
So, Andrew’s brother Daniel now lives in Chicago.
Because he is awesome.
He moved to Chicago to go to school. Left mid-January.
We miss him a lot …. Andrew has already started selecting things to mail in a care package …
A couple days before Daniel left for Chicago, we headed up to Santa [...]
I love when Devo is in town …We always try to make sure to hang out with Devo and Angela when he is in town.
January 2nd we headed down to their new apartment for lunch – It happened to be POURING that day. (We had tentative plans to go up to Santa Clarita [...]
Andrew has been hard hard at work the last few weeks ….
Sitting down to edit text for a couple hours? That doesn’t sound like Andrew.
Asking to borrow my big fancy camera and actually learning how to do the settings? That doesn’t sound like Andrew.
He’s been working on a big big big [...]
This year marks the second holiday season Andrew and I have gotten together with some of his friends from high school for a party and baking.
Which, I guess, makes it an annual tradition.
We spent the earlier part of the day doing photos with Maggie (then I to furiously finish up the last [...]
I love staying in on New Year’s Eve.
In general, I think the holiday itself is a bit overrated and I’d much rather have friends over to my place so I don’t have to drive anywhere with all those crazies late at night.
So – New Year’s Eve – we were kind of surprised [...]
The great thing about those weeks around Christmas and New Years is that EVERYONE has just a little bit of extra time off ….
So we were able to get together with friends that we haven’t seen in months – because it is near impossible to coordinate schedules.
On New Year’s Eve (Friday) Andrew [...]
The last of the actual Christmas Day posts for 2010 ….
after opening the gifts and saying goodbye to Daniel and Jenae (who went to hang out with her family), the rest of Christmas Day is for games, right?
Andrew brought over his newest toy and he and Chris had some fun teasing the [...]
After a fantastic breakfast/lunch, we all gathered in the living room for PRESENTS!!
We all kind of sat in a bit of a circle and took turns opening …. Nice, since there were so many of us and there is no way we’d be able to see what everyone got otherwise ….
Christmas Eve Andrew and I both had the full day off to hang out together and relax before the craziness of the holiday.
But, of course, we had to finish last minute Christmas gifts….
