Sunday Sunnies

Be still my heart lovers. THESE sunnies! Just. Stop. As painful as it is for me to say this... they could be yours! My aunt is selling these vintage beauties! I sooooo badly [seriously my heart is breaking writing this! (wish I was kidding!)] wish I could keep/buy them but sadly they're a little too swanky for my pocket book :( If you are interested leave me a comment below and I'll get you in touch with her! In the meantime, I will be babysitting them, drooling over them, petting them, coveting them and pretending they'll never leave me... Seriously, I am trying to not get attached, but it's way too late for that crap! It's already to the point of bad break up status! When they go I know I am going to end up alone, watching vampire diaries with a pint of ben and jerry's, online shopping for their rebound! Yes, I am being that pathetic, but if you got to wear these beautes for a day, you would understand! Hashtag// don't judge

Bean Head

Is it just me or are the best outfits sometimes the ones that we have no intention of ever wearing together, the ones that end up spilling our closets guts all over the bedroom as we search for that perfect piece that just ties it all together (well, if you ask my husband that's every outfit!), the ones that cost 3 bucks at the thrift store, the ones that involve our friends shirt that she let you borrow light years ago, you know the ones I'm talking about, well this was one of those :) One thing this winter has taught me about myself is that I am a fan of hats... beanies, Indiana Jones, baseball, fedora, you name it, I'll wear it! If it means I can go one more day without washing my grimy a$$ hair, I'll take it! I need to start collecting my summer hats, because just like winter, it will be here before we know it! Seasons always sneak up on me! 

Well, hopefully this is one of my last outfit posts taken on my iPhone... I am trying to teach myself how to use my brother- in-laws camera he so generously lent us :) (Thanks Matty!) I am the most camera illiterate person apparently... you would think working with a photographer that I would have some clue by now, but... I don't! I think I need to stop pressing buttons, that would probably be a real good start for me! It's a Nikon D40, if anyone has any tips on settings, or basically any tips at all, please share!

Pool Party

Is it just me or does January seem like the most boring yet most busy month ever?!? It just seems to be dragging it's little tush along! 'Git on now git! ' Anyway, I have been keeping myself busy, traveling around working on photo shoots while the Hubs studies his buns off so one day I can be a professional gold digger ;) Gosh, talk about a swanky set up! Below is just a little nibble of what my fabulous life looks like, lounging by the trailer park pool, yes people, classy right here, classy with a capital K.  "Klassy Kayla", yup! Really all that was missing was a martini, or mojito, I'd gladly take either ;)

Hello Lovies! 

Happy Monday! 

This is a very intimidating Monday for me. 

It is my last day of spring break, and when I go back to school tomorrow it will be my last first day of the quarter at UCSD!! Once I finish this quarter (10 weeks) I am done...DONE for life! I can't even imagine what to do with myself, all I know is school, I've been going to school since I was 4!! That's 19 loooooonggg a$$ years!! DAMN! I don't know how to NOT be a student! 

So, I am excited but scared to death all at the same time... actually after typing that I feel a little nauseous. 

Anyway...

last Wednesday me and the hubs went on  a drive, with our furbaby to check the scene. 

We nabbed a couple of pics and enjoyed the sun. It was nothing too exciting but it sure was a beautiful thing to have a few hours off together to do whatever we pleased! 

later on in the week (if I can keep my panties on that long ;) ) there will be some read - worthy blog posts 

some include 

1. recipes 

2. neat pictures 

3. my quarter life crisis! 

I have a lot to share!! Until then... let these little iPhone gems tickle your fancy :) 

XOXO

Picnics Are For Lovers

Hello Lovies!!

I am still alive!

I made it through finals and now I am officially on Spring Break!!

Someone pour me a drink!

Bring on the booze!

Actually... I already began bringing on the booze last night and I've somehow been hungover all

  mutha -effing day, and I didn't even drink hard alcohol! 

It's unfair and I'm ashamed, but here I am 

Hakuna Mattata!

It was worth it:) 

Because I've been cooped up all this past week writing 3 eight page papers (24 total pages, if my math serves me correctly) and stressing over a 15 min presentation (yes, I did contemplate suicide several times) I haven't really been out much to enjoy the weather - or wear anything cute worth documenting. 

SO, today I bring you one of my favorite days,

 from one of my favorite weekends a few weeks ago! 

I've been meaning to share this whimsy little number with you for ages now but finals snuck up on me and before I knew it I was buried in books, no SUFFOCATING under books! 

But finally the day has come where I can blog in peace

 and not feel guilty about it 

because I ain't got SH*T to do now! 

Hallelujah Praise JESUS!

So pour yourself a glass of vino, put on some Black Keys or Lil' Wayne 

(whatever's your fancy ;) )

and enjoy! 

So we decided to go on a picnic.

We set up camp under this perfect tree.

We made Better-Than-Tuna-Salad sandwiches and freshly juiced apple and pear mimosas!

I twirled.

This park is just footsteps from our home! We're lucky!

We canoodled :)

I tried to get Carlita to pose.

Pat took pictures of me stuffing my face without my knowledge, but - not gonna lie, I sorta liked em'

My two favorites.

Me hauling Carlita's A$$ home.

The end.

Have a fab weekend!

XOXO

The Hull Cabin

I know it's hard to imagine sitting by the fire with a cup of warm cocoa on such a sunny warm day

BUT

can you please try?

For me?
Pretty please, with a cherry on top?!

Thank you!
 Ok, now go ahead, curl up by the fire (your towel on the beach) with your cup of warm cocoa (Starbucks Venti iced Carmel latte with soy milk and extra Carmel ;) )

and enjoy!

Below I will visually abuse you with 30,000 photos from our Tahoe trip a few weeks ago. 

We gathered up some of our nearest and dearest family and friends and spent presidents weekend in Tahoe at the Hull cabin! 

Yeeeeha!! 

So much fun to be had! 

We built igloos... well, I didn't but the boys did! 

We had breakfast every morning at the Old Tahoe Cafe, Where I gained 40 pounds and we were reunited with our favorite German! We don't know her name but she's the only server at the Old Tahoe Cafe and one time Pat saw her at the Costco in Reno just days before our wedding and so she holds a very special, very unique place in our hearts! 

Because there are so many pictures, scrolling through this post may take up the greater part of your day... or...weekend ;) I will get to the goods! 

The start of a long A$$ roadtrip!

The Hull Cabin

The boy's getting our car unstuck from the snow! Love Pat's face!

Digging out the igloo!

igloo sound system!

inside the igloo!

The End!!
Hope all you pretties have a lovely weekend!
XOXO
