  • so cool…

    …to hang out with these three girls and their fancy cameras this past weekend. So sweet + inspiring. photos by Amy + Kelly.

  • recently the world has felt very small.

    Or at least the United States. Since moving to San Diego I have seen my college friends in LA three times. Last week, we had a visitor from Chicago. Next weekend Paul's family is visiting from Northern California. Two of my best friends from high school just relocated or are in the process of moving…

  • we’re off.

    We're road tripping up to LA this morning and planning to stop only for Paper Source and In-N-Out. Should be a good adventure.

  • sunday brunch.

    We were lucky enough to brunch at the Hotel del Coronado this Sunday. It was something we have been looking forward to for awhile and we were not disappointed. (Though 20 hours later, we are still not too hungry.) Above are some photos from our all you can eat feast though I sort of failed…

  • happy images for michelle.

I'm shooting for early September. around here : prepping for Paul's weekend away. He's headed up north for a bachelor party and…

  • check plus.

    It was the perfect hike to cross off #2. Ocean views, desert trails and little lizards. I recommend Torrey Pines State Reserve if you're ever in San Diego and want a few hours of nature. Lots of different paths and not too difficult.

  • slow moving this morning.

    Paul's work schedule has us both a bit out of sorts. But during the four hours I saw him awake this past weekend, I took fake photo booth photos with my Photo Booth+ ap for iPhone. Highly recommend.

  • PSA : back up your files!

    I was online this morning when my MacBook started making a grinding sound. And then everything froze. When I shut it down and restarted, it went to a gray screen with a question mark. A little bit of at home troubleshooting + a visit to the Apple store later… Survey says? DEAD HARDDRIVE. Good news…
