33

This weekend, we celebrated my birthday by doing exactly what I wanted to do – beach day! The weather was perfect for a day out at Rosie’s Dog Beach. This was H’s first beach trip and I think she had a blast (or at least as much fun a baby could have sitting in a […]

Playing Catch Up

Life has been so busy that I’ve now built up a huge back log of post drafts I need to finish and publish. I think the last time I made a real post (and by real, I mean a post I didn’t have to backdate…..) was at the end of 2017, also complaining about how […]

2017

2017 was a busy year. Peter and I got married. Had friends over at our half-finished house for dinner and games. Finished construction at our house but continued remodeling and finishing the inside for several months after. It was only recently that we stopped working every weekend on house things.. but that’s going to start […]

Lazy Sundays

It’s been a long time since we’ve had a lazy Sunday but it feels so good to be back!! Before house remodeling, we were working on wedding planning. Before wedding planning, we were both working 6 days a week, leaving Sunday to be our grocery shopping/catch up day. We’re definitely not done with house remodeling […]

Year of the Rooster

Even though things have been chaotic and I’ve been really busy, I knew I had to set some time aside to do this year’s Chinese zodiac animal. Happy year of the rooster! I made him a little bigger thanĀ All About Ami‘s pattern to match the past animals but….. I accidentally made him a little bigger […]

Our Life Right Now

I feel like that photo perfectly captures our life right now.. working on wedding stuff (building our photobooth) in our house-in-progress while the dogs patiently wait, quietly sulking and wishing for a yard to run around in again.

Unlucky iPhone 5s

A little while ago, I dropped my phone on pavement and cracked the corner of my screen. It didn’t affect the display or the camera so I didn’t think much of it and never got it fixed. It wasn’t even that bad.. I found the photo above on Google but the damage looks similar. Fast […]

15 Year Old Pretzels #tbt

The first time my family went to Disney World in 2001, my mom bought a bag of Mickey Mouse pretzels to snack on. For whatever reason, she never actually got a chance to snack on it. 15 years later, the bag still remains unopened. The only difference now is that it’s sitting in our china […]

CHLA to CHLA

When I first accepted my job with the CHLAKids program last year, I knew my job was not going to be permanent because it was a grant-funded position. I also knew it had an end date of either June 30, 2016 or December 31, 2016. By the beginning of this year, I was already in […]
