A Simple date..

 On Sunday Ryan and I enjoyed a little brunch date at Simple Cafe in Williamsburg.  One of the things I love about the weekends is finding a new fun place to enjoy brunch. 






I loved how the place was decorated! They had their menus on cute little clipboards...



And the best part were all their flavors of mimosas =) I got mango...yummy!!!








Ryan, enjoying himself =) Is it me or is brunch more of an East coast thing?? Oh well, I will take it!!!!

Feel good Friday

 Definitely been MIA in the blogging world, sorry friends!! Coming back from Oregon always screws me up, not to mention I had a red eye flight on the way back and still have the sniffles =( I'm sitting here enjoying a big glass of fresh juice hoping it will cure me in time for a wedding we have tomorrow.  Since I missed 5 of my Faves Tuesday I thought a Feel good Friday was the next best post....



I think I could snuggle up in this chair ALL day....



Such a sweet idea...I think I will be on the hunt for teapots now!!!



SOOOOO gorgeous =)



Hehehe...love it!!

Hope you all have a great weekend!!!

Wedding Weekend

 It has been a crazy last couple of days here in Oregon.  Trying to see everyone, work, get in some kisses to my nieces and nephew. All while fighting a sore throat =( It was a lot of fun shooting at The Nines hotel and staying in downtown Portland..I'm excited to call this city home soon. The wedding went off without a hitch and everyone was pretty excited about the Same Day Edit for Nicole and Nima's wedding...check it out!!!

I'm comin home...

Whenever I am about to head home the Puff Daddy song get's stuck in my head!! You know which one I'm talking about?? "I'm comin home, comin home, tell the world that I'm coming home". I feel all gangsta sitting here rapping it =)
It always seems to be a quick trip and this one I know will fly by as well.  I'm looking forward to the day of not rushing around anymore when we see family and friends.










I want to have time to build a bonfire on the beach like we did in the good old days...



and go on a hike...maybe even hit up the Rhododendron parade =)  Soon Oregon, real soon!!!

Oh Boy!!!

 I started compiling ideas for Cara if she was going to have a girl and today she found out for sure it is a boy!!! I still thought it would be fun to share the things I was thinking if it was a girl.  The only thing she mentioned was she liked purple and the rest was up to me.....I feel so honored =)


I went with Joel Dewberry fabric again...love his stuff right now =)






I thought a pretty teal mirror would be so feminine hanging on a wall...

Oh Baby!!!

 One of my best friends Cara is finding out Monday if she is having a boy or a girl!! I am so excited for her...I got even more excited when she asked me to help her design their nursery =) So here is round one of ideas.  Her husband Josh is adamant that this baby is a boy (my bet is girl)  and if it is they are wanting to do a sailboat themed nursery.  As soon as I heard this, I was off browsing the web as I normally do.  I'm hoping they will be as excited as I am with the treasures I've found....



This kid will definitely need a sailboat mobile...

I love both these ideas.  Making letters from his name out of an old map and a cute little letterpress to go by its side!


While doing a themed nursery I think it is easy to go a little overboard (no pun intended).  At first I was looking for nautical fabrics but was more fond of some of these...







 
Joel Dewberry's fabric seemed to add a more modern touch....and who doesn't love Dwell??

Cara and Josh have a Boston terrier so I thought this was only fitting for the little dudes room =) The red is perfect too!

Striped rug from Amazon perfect for in front of the crib
 
Throw in a few shelves and some baby belly shots and you have yourself a little home for the little man!!!

Love you Cara!!
