Prepping in LA 2011

Closing on Our First House, 2011
Last week was kind of epic. My parents came to town for two days as part of their week long adventure spent driving up the California coast and I took them deep sea fishing.

Chiang Mai 2011
When we were staying in Chiang Mai this summer, we rented a car and a driver and went trekking through the hillsides and villages outside of the city.

Thailand, 2011
Today Aaron and I had our first Bangkok adventure: taking a long-tail river boat across the water to one of the most famous Buddhist temples here. Upon arrival I quickly learned that I shouldn’t have warn shorts– in my defense it is quite warm AND quite humid! However, it all worked out because I quicklyContinue reading “Thailand, 2011”

Bike rides up and down the coast and antique shopping on Abbott Kinney. It. was. AMAZING! On one of our little bike rides, while enjoying the ocean breezeContinue reading “Venice 2011”
Hawaii 2010
There is nothing like a little Hawaiian vacation to say farewell to summer and embrace a new season! The week before last, Aaron and I enjoyed six amazing days of eating sushi, lounging on the beach, and drinking mai tais. Somewhere in between rest and relaxation we managed to squeeze in a zodiac boat tripContinue reading “Hawaii 2010”

Enough with excuses, here are some of my favorite moments from my weekContinue reading “New York, 2010”
