Buried Treasure
The first two things we did when we received our keys was A) lay on the floor and bask in the glory of it all and B) rip up a corner of the carpet in the living room. I had done some research and found that houses built in the 50s and 60s were almost…

We Bought A House!
About 7 years ago, this blog was born. It’s purpose was to document our journey into eventual home-ownership. The House on the Hill was a sort of “rent to own” situation that never materialized. For many reasons, which I won’t really get into, that home was not meant to be for us. So after the…

Love & Marriage
Life comes at you fast and if you’re lucky…it’s a big beautiful mess of love, sweat and tears. On Sunday, October 4th… we got hitched. It was a randomly cool & rainy day in the middle of a heatwave in Los Angeles. Our family and friends laughed and cried right along with us. And trust…

We’re getting married!
Finally? I know, I know. After 10 years of friendship, which include 8 years of dating, 5 years of living together and 2 years of being engaged, we’re clearly in no rush for much of anything. So, we thought we’d go ahead and spend way too much money to party with our family and friends…

A Case For Nicole Warne*
He doesn’t know what a Gary Pepper Girl is. He’s not quite sure what part of the world she hails from. He couldn’t tell you what her name is if his life depended on it. But whenever Nicole Warne’s gorgeous face flashes across the screen on my laptop (while we’re laying in bed watching yet…

Brow Game.
Currently growing out my eyebrows because I’ve had the same brow shape since I was 14. Thought I’d share some inspo shots. Can you tell where I’m going with this? Happy Monday!

Uniform.
Lately, I’ve been craving a uniform. Mostly because figuring out what to wear every morning has gotten slightly out of control. I’ve tried to put outfits together the night before and yenno, it’s just not for me. So I thought a uniform would work. I don’t mean wearing the exact same thing every day (shout…

Happily Ever After.
Image via Smitten Studio, who is in the middle of a house remodel I wish was my own. Waiting sucks. I’m 30, but you knew that. Up until now I’ve always felt like I had time. Time to do everything I wanted to do. Short term, long term.. “what’s the rush?” I thought. Now it…

Weekend Warriors
So that happened over the weekend. It wasn’t without lots of swearing, splinters and a lot of “wow, they don’t fit. unscrew it!” — but we got ‘er done. I’ll be back with a bigger update (including those two sexy chairs in the back) once she’s sanded, stained and pillowed up.

Gangsters don’t dance, we boogie.
Update: I’ve made modifications to my eating habits and am using NTC as a proper warmup for running. 15 minutes of almost any workout from the app and I can last a lot longer on the treadmill. Small victories, y’all! So it’s only February and I’m trying to party outside? Well, I do live in…
