How to help? Feeling stuck! That is how I am feeling as the world I know is suffering during this pandemic.

Hello Spring! I must admit that I love cooler weather and rainy days, and this past Winter has certainly been wet and cold, for Southern California.

Arthur’s First Year … We Made It!

Wedding Bells: Always Finding Inspiration
It is safe to say that I will always lust over all things wedding. With news of the impending nuptials of Prince Harry and Meghan, it is going to be a wedding frenzy up until the big day, and I love it. Whenever I come across a beautiful or creative wedding, I find myself thinking of how I would plan my wedding day all over again.

For Arthur’s first Christmas, we will be in the Midwest, visiting my husband’s family. We are really looking forward to this and cannot wait for Arthur to meet more of his Midwest family (and to see snow!).Continue Reading…

BEAUTY: Easy Does It
Before becoming Mom, and even more so now, I have always been searching for easy to use makeup products that I can swipe on and go.
