Gratitude.


In the spirit of Thanksgiving, here is what I'm currently grateful for....

1.  Christmas music playing on 99.9 already.  There is singing on every car ride and Harrison loves it!
2.  Having so many wonderful friends with boys the same age as my own....it's like a little football team.
3.  A husband who still opens the car door for me.
4.  Having a royal wedding to obsess over.
5.  The clarity and courage to see things for what they are, and trust the process of this amazing ride called life.

Happy Thanksgiving.

The Spades.


I just stumbled upon these photographs of Andy and Kate Spade's home recently.  I've been obsessed with her from a young age, and when I worked at the store, I had the extreme pleasure of meeting her a couple of times.  They are the coolest, nicest, most stylish people you can ever imagine meeting.  These photos just confirm how laid back and hip they really are.






Go here to see the rest....

Catching Up...

This blog is a little bit like my long distance friendships.  I think about them all the time and have so much to say, but finding the time to actually sit down and chat is difficult.  So, we'll just have to do what Marissa and I do and cover it all in segments. 

Right now I'm in the throes of planning Harrison's birthday party.  He will be 2 years old and it's so much fun to see him get excited about having a party.  Of course I've bitten off more than I can chew (as usual) and am feeling a little stressed.  Hopefully by the time he's 5, I'll have learned to just grab a cake from costco and call it a party.

In other news, I've sworn off sweets (mostly) and did a 2 1/2 week detox which granted me a 10 pound weight loss.  I'm so happy and feel great.  I still have little bites now and then, but my cravings are totally under control.

It officially feels like Fall here, and this morning I had to wear a sweatshirt.  Yippeee!
