one and oh

lakers took game one and i'm all smiles. i love being up 1-0, let's just hope that game two isn't as boring - blowouts in the finals are not as exciting. but i'll take a blowout win over a loss any day.

black and white.

these little guys kept interrupting a photoshoot i was at last night. i've never liked skunks, but these two were just little babies. they were actually really cute.

once i was close enough to them to take this photo chet tells me that he's heard that skunks can spray 6-8 ft. now if i had known that...

talent.

last night i was blessed to be in a room overflowing with talented people. i can't even begin to explain them to you. so i won't! instead go see them perform tomorrow night, you can find all the info here. i'll be there, will you?!

if you haven't already, be sure to click on the image before you go!

i ❤ the taj.

i'm going through some old film and i found this (i desperately need access to a better scanner).
i just recently watched the india episode of 1,000 places to see before you die on the travel channel and i've come to realize that...i really want to go back to india! i also miss all the photo and design kids soo much.

i'm itching to travel internationally, its been too long. anyone else feel the same?

m&m.

i hung out with these two today. we ate lunch here and i ate this minus the pickles + a mini carrot cake cupcake.

hope you had an amazing holiday!

beach buddies.

happy birthday little brother!

blessed.

let me introduce you to the talented girls of levantao.

tonight they put on their very first concert ever and let me tell you...wow. these girls are truly amazing, both individually as well as together in a band. i was definitely blessed by their music tonight!

dear eri, jael and jamila, the concert was inspirational! please record a cd asap.

play date.

on wednesday cambria came over and i though it would be fun if she met mello's niece, kaela. so that evening, mello and kaela came over and all of us went out for some frozen yogurt!


needless to say they were instantly best buds. they were talking nonstop, making up stories together, singing, dancing and just having fun. i have a feeling an amazing summer is on it's way!
