Thoughts from a Thursday

Ramblings Shopping

I’ve been thinking of buying a fun one-piece this year but just cannot find one that covers my behind. Why do designers assume that if one wants to cover part of her stomach that she must want to let her cheeks hang out?? Also, I’ve been trying on larges and extra larges and they still are too small. If you’re feeling generous, I’m obsessed with this organization and they are raising money for the many children you’ve probably heard about…

Is it October Yet?

Life Travel

Hi y’all, There’s not a whole lot going on over here – September has been kind of blah in general? After Emerson’s croup, she came down with her first double ear infection. So we spent our weekend inside with the exception of quickly grabbing margaritas and guacamole before getting takeout on Saturday night. I’m hoping to get out and about more this coming weekend! I’m happy to be resting on the couch after finishing another work week. It was a…

Weekend in Ojai

Travel

Hello! We had the privilege of attending a wedding in the beautiful Ojai, California this past weekend. We stayed at the Ojai Valley Inn and the resort was stunning! I think I was so focused on packing for this trip plus all the wedding festivities, that I wasn’t anticipating how gorgeous the surrounding area would be. Expectations exceeded. We arrived on Thursday afternoon, and there was a welcome party at a neat little picnic shop. Everything was outdoors and the…

Life Pregnancy Travel

Hi friends, We are back at home in Texas after a lovely trip to visit friends and family in North Carolina, both at our alma mater and at the beach. As we traveled back from the coast to Charlotte to catch our flight, we learned of the horrifying news in Orlando on Sunday. It’s such a sad time for our country, and it’s disheartening that things only seem to be getting worse. We also learned of my dear aunt Pat…

Spring Weekends

Amazing Restaurants

We’ve had a fun couple of weekends over here. First, we had a local wedding to attend, which is such a rare occasion. I loooove going to weddings in town because it makes the whole event much more relaxed when you don’t have to travel. Our friends Alex and Akshay got married right around the corner from our house at the beautiful Robert E. Lee park. Though it was a chilly day out, it was absolutely gorgeous! The ceremony was…

Life Wedding

A little entertainment for your Wednesday morning… Jason Andre of Seven Season Films put together a GORGEOUS video of our wedding on Bald Head Island! We had debated hiring a videographer, and I can’t tell you how glad I am that we did. Jason was easy to work with and professional and the final product was worth every penny. It is fun to see the ceremony from our guests’ perspective and I’m thrilled to be able to relive that perfect…
