A Night at the Malibu Fair

September 2, 2014 By Leave a Comment

On Saturday night, Hannah, Allie, and I went to the fair! I am obsessed with the fair. Rides seriously make me smile from ear to ear and giggle uncontrollably. One of my favorite feelings is when I lose my stomach and I really only get that feeling from amusement park and carnival rides. (OH and a canyon swing too!) So, I was so excited when the girls said they wanted to go with me. We had so much fun!!

I took a little bit of video footage (on the rides I was brave enough to film on) so that you could feel like you were on the rides with us!

And of course, what would a trip to the fair without funnel cake be?? That stuff is delicious.

Happy Labor Day!

September 1, 2014 By 3 Comments

I hope everyone is having a lovely Labor Day weekend!  Today is a day you get to celebrate all your productive/hard work you’ve done so far this year!  Kick up those feet, pour yourselves a glass of wine and toast to you!

I feel like this is also a time to reflect.  To acknowledge all the ups and downs of the first half of the year and realize that you get to change whatever it is you don’t like!  Isn’t that amazing??  (Or if you can’t… you can always change your PERSPECTIVE!!  WHAT?  I know, I’m talking crazy.)

Plot Twist

 ^This made me laugh :)

Today also marks the beginning of Season 2 of 2014!  And I believe it to be the most wonderful time of the year!  I truly feel like all is right in the world, once again, with the start of the football season (Bizzare, I know, but oddly true for me.).  Season 2 is also the season of bouquets of newly sharpened pencils (which no one actually ever does with the exception of my dear friend Martha), pumpkin spice lattes (but can’t drink those because everyone ruined all the fun with the articles on how bad they are for you and how there isn’t even pumpkin in the ingredients), the crisp Fall air (that rarely makes an appearance in LA), cozy sweater and scarf weather (which I never get to wear because I live in LA)… I have a lot to look forward to!! ;)

I am really excited because there is a sense of movement in the industry that slows down over the summer and I feel it picking up.  The town is reenergized from the summer and the creative juices are flowing!  I really have a good feeling about the path I am on!  So I am going to toast to that… to following your bliss!

“Follow your bliss and the universe will open up doors for you where there were only walls.” – Joseph Campbell – AMEN!

I actually just came across another quote that I think is truly important and is rare for people (I am talking about myself) to own… so here’s a toast…. Know the power of your words.  Know the power of your body.  Know the power of your mind.

Oh and I love this…

I am in a very inspired/get inspired mood!  Happy Monday!

Baby, let’s cruise… to this new playlist!

August 29, 2014 By 1 Comment

Caroline, get ready! I have a new playlist for us.  We were in major need of a new playlist (we have been driving all over LA these past two weeks which obviously means we have overplayed our last playlist) so I decided to whip another one for this weekend!  New hits and some throwbacks! I haven’t listened to it in it’s entirety yet… so I might have to come back and edit.  Hope you all have an amazing Labor Day weekend! XO

*Within two minutes of posting this… Patty frantically texted me… “What about Shake It Off?!?!?!?”  I would like you all to know that it is not available on Spotify, as of right now.  I will add it as soon as it’s added! :)

*I almost made a whole playlist about booties.  There are SO many new songs about big booties… everyone is singing about them!  JLo, Nicki, our Nantucket native, Meghan…and I’m just representing!
