I hope everyone had a great Easter! Wayne and I are about to leave on a vacation! Woot woot! But I wanted to quickly post this outfit post before our trip. These photos are from last Wednesday when my sister, Danica and I went out for lunch. Spring was really in the air and I wanted to dress for the occasion. Plus it felt good to get my limbs out there for some Vitamin D while we walked around the Via Lido district in Newport Beach. What I'm Wearing Blouse: Zara Denim Shorts:

Last week we went where no blogger has gone before. Wait, that's not right...where every blogger has gone before, to see the super bloom of poppies at Lake Elsinore. Kind of annoying, I know but I love flowers and I had to see it for myself. It is about an hour drive for us and it was worth the travel. The flowers were beautiful, thank you California rain. I was not expecting a hike so I was not dressed for the occasion but it wasn't too strenuous. We actually got there just

The fellas and I hit the park on Saturday after the little ones woke up from their naps. Neither of them have really adjusted to the (1 hour!) time change so they have been waking up from their naps around 5 pm. I don't mind getting to sleep-in in the morning but we are pretty much under house arrest all afternoon until they are up. I have been having a bit of a hard time lately, for no specific reason just one of the normal dips that we all go through. Sometimes it feels li

Wayne and I went on a great day date this week wherein we ate our body weight in pasta and then went on a quick drive down Pacific Coast Highway to Laguna Beach. I think Laguna might be my favorite city in Southern California. The views are amazing and there always seems to be something artsy going on. We only had a short time for our date so we went on a little stroll above the cliffs and then grabbed coffee for the ride home. It was a combination of many of my favorite thin

Wayne left for a work trip to Europe yesterday (and I will be meeting him soon at a very exciting location!) but before he left, we wanted to do something special with the kids all together. We took the boys over to a local farm, Tanaka Farms to take a tractor tour and go strawberry picking. I am not sure what the kids enjoyed more, the bumpy ride or stuffing their faces with as many berries as they could gather. It was a great little outing, Not a ton of people, a perfect le

Yesterday, we held my baby sister, Cassidy's bridal shower at my house. We were so busy running around that I didn't get as many photos as I'd like but I will try and put what I have together for a post. For now, here is the dress I wore. It is from a company called Do + Be. I was just going to wear something I had in my closet but Wayne and I saw it in the window of a boutique while we were out getting lunch and it seemed perfect for the occasion. I loved that I could wear i

On Friday, I went to Fashion Island with my mom, sister, my cousin, her sweet baby girl and little River-cat (Wolfie was home napping). We grabbed lunch, coffee and macaroons and spent a couple hours walking around in the fresh air with the kiddos. For clothes, I went for something comfortable and casual but with a little flair. I started with these Matisse booties. I always get compliments on them, they are comfortable and add a bit of a pop to whatever you wear. I paired th

My morning boys are my favorite boys. Here is another throwback post of these two hooligans. These photos are from two separate mornings in their natural play. I can't remember when these were taken exactly but I can tell they were when River was in his 'obsessed with dad's music videos stage' and also these were taken right after I gave him a terrible haircut. Also, about River's hair, it is so thick and fluffy and has a gazillion cowlicks and I am very curious to see how th

I have been working on an essay that I wanted to have done by our anniversary which was yesterday but I think it still needs some work so for now here are photos Wayne took of Wolfie and I getting some fresh air while River napped today. It has been raining all weekend so it was felt so good to be outside for a little bit. I wanted to wear something comfortable for our Sunday getting things done around the house. My top is from Brandy Melville ($23) and my overalls are from U
