How Fast They Grow

It does not even make sense to me that six months ago, Pierson looked like this. I’m like the crazy “Aunt” who is overly obsessed and takes a ton of pictures, so naturally, I was thrilled when Ashley asked me to take some for his six month anniversary. It was a sunny (but chilly!) day at the park – ready for Easter (I mean, those egg pictures, c’mon!). I took 500 and whittled it down to 97 – my favorites are below. This little man has my heart!

Sasha looks just like this when something goes awry during a Texans game.

Pretty Little Things

Bryan texted me last night and said, “The house is starting to look like a home.” It was a small statement, but the sentiment was huge. I feel the same way! All of the little touches are coming together and although Sasha and I have agreed not to nail anything into the walls for another few weeks (I’m beginning to cave), we have ordered a few prints and I’m leaning them on the walls for now. I move out of my apartment in two weeks (seriously depressed – I’ve absolutely had the best year of my life living with McKenzie), and back into my parents – with the exception of my furniture, which will go into The Manor. A busy few weeks ahead! I’ll keep you all posted as always.

1) Furbish Studio Feather Print I, 2) Three French Prints from One Love Studio on Etsy, 3) New Moroccan print rug for the Master room (awaiting rug pad, which is why it’s not flat!), 4) Our second Maxwell couch from Restoration Hardware arrived!, 5) Constant supply of yellow tulips for the very yellow kitchen, 6) Finally filling out the bookshelves with real books (slowly but surely)

Honeymoon Series: Bali

We have explored all sorts of options for the honeymoon – our favorites being Croatia, New Zealand, and Thailand. Then, as I mentioned in my previous post, I stumbled upon Entouriste and my mind was made – we’re going to Bali! In her post about Bali, Ami talks about her visits in Ubud, which is about an hour away from our hotel – the Conrad Bali Resort & Spa (see pictures below). After reading about her experiences (and seeing those pictures!), we’ll definitely make a trip north to see those sites as well. I am so excited – and relieved to have picked a spot! While the wedding is in July, we’ll wait until December to go, as Sasha has finals at the end of November. It’s a long, long journey there (29 hours, to be exact), but I know it’ll be worth it!

Entouriste

Those of you who know me are aware that I love to travel. Slightly obsessed. I have been staying up late recently on Kayak, trying to manipulate flights and hotels for the honeymoon. Last week, I discovered Entouriste, and I’m addicted. I am seriously freaking out about going to every single place featured on the site. I’ve covered a few, but am now adding Bali, Thailand and the BVI to my ‘must see’ list.

Featured on Style Me Pretty

My sister sent me an email on Tuesday, asking if I’d seen this post on Style Me Pretty – I hadn’t and obviously squealed when I saw it. I posted pictures of the Tapp’s wedding here and here – it was so gorgeous. My beautiful bridesmaid, Sophee, did a wonderful job planning and organizing everything. I miss Austin. Especially after seeing all of these #SXSW pictures on Instagram!
