Old Hollywood Glamour & Decor
I’ve been going through a big old Hollywood phase lately! Either that…or I’m finally putting together my style and discovering what it’s really called <3 Probably both~
Here is a fun little inspiration board of all the things I’m loving right now and what I hope to add to my new place! My new place & our new budget doesn’t quite allow for an entire rennovation~ but…I’m trying to pick pieces wisely so that they can at least give off the same ambiance. <3
Bridal Shower: Hello Kitty Theme
I have the BEST bridesmaids in the entire world. They threw the most amazing bash for me!! Every single detail was GORGEOUS and incredibly thoughtful. They not only were super crafty, but the decor style of the event was classic <3 I’m so grateful to those girls!
My roomie/BM took 60+ pictures from the day, so here are just some fun ones for you to see.
xoxo
Looking back on this day…I feel so blessed to have amazing friends in my life who love me. I will always see these pictures and remember such a fun girls day to celebrate my marriage to Markel <3
Weekend Recap and Photodump
This past weekend was ANOTHER busy busy busy one~~ Filled with good food, friends, and some physical labor <3
Friday Night, Markel and I watched a Mad Men marathon and just hung out at home. We ate leftovers and just did what we haven’t been able to do: RELAX!
Saturday, bright and early, we woke up and drove out to Chino to help Markel’s grandparents move to San Diego. It was such a gorgeous day~~ it didn’t feel like we were moving. After the move, we were able to do a little home decor shopping at Z Gallerie & Target <3
(made a little care package for Markel’s Bro’s wedding, the weather was GORG, so was the sunset!)
Sunday, Markel and I got to sleep in and slowly get ready for a big bbq birthday bash <3 Our friends came over, got to see our new place, and Markel was able to use his new GRILL~~~ his most prize possession at the moment.
I forgot to take pictures at the beginning of the party, so here are just some random ones towards the end. This year, I planned a REALLY REALLY chill birthday for Markel b/c he was so burnt out from work/wedding/traveling/moving/LIFE! We kept it all incredibly low key and relaxing~ so that Mike could sit back and enjoy the day. (Markel’s Birthday Pasts)
He was so special he got TWO birthday cakes <3
Happy Birthday Baby!! xoxo

Weekend Recap and Update
Markel and I had a really big and busy weekend. We hosted guests to our new place for the first time. It was filled with lots of loved ones, fun, good food, and drinks! <3
Friday Night, we hosted a thank you dinner for some of the people who helped at the Wedding. (second diner party to come soon!) We ate delicious chicken enchiladas, chicken tortilla soup, sangria, beer…and dessert that no one got to eat =(
We attempted to play a game, but the girls rocked the boys so fast that…well…it wasn’t fair to finish. hehe
Saturday, my new parents (MIL, FIL) came over and we hung out and watched a movie. It was fun being able to host in our new place <3
Sushi lunch date my my new mama
Sunday, we hosted Mother’s Day Brunch for Markel’s whole family and even did a quick happy birthday song for him.
I even got to paint a few fingers and toes <3
