Oak Glen

a few years ago, Darren and I went with my family to Oak Glen in Yucaipa. I fell in love with it! The trees are beautiful. its as close as california gets to "seasonal." We decided it was time for a return visit.

you can pick your own apples here! how fun!

lunchtime.

candy time. this place had the

best.

fudge.

ive ever.

tasted.

petting zoo!?

and finally, if you asked both of us what we would say you just had to leave with, if nothing else?.....this is what we'd tell you:

him: apple donuts.

her: the cider. really. its that good!

truth:

what makes me happy today:

i like this.

lately..

After a very busy (but wonderful) two weeks of shooting three weddings, two engagements, nannying and working at bare minerals...ive been keeping my spare time occupied with some fun things.

I love the fact that food can grow in my own back yard.

the tomatoes...oh the tomatoes.

im picking them everyday! I swear they grow an entire batch overnight.

i've been mistaking myself as "jill of all trades" recently...thinking i can take on the world and every corner of my time either making something or working on of my various jobs.

that being said...here is one of the latest projects. Have you seen my jewlery etsy? (i have two etsy shops...the other one is a photo shop etsy...see?? i told  you..i've lost it)

annndd another project....making lots of quilts! I'll be a vendor at a Fall Boutique coming up in October. (much more info to come on that in the near future) I'll also be making skirts and aprons to sell along with the quilts.

i know. a christmas quilt. let me tell you...it was very weird sewing christmas fabric together on a hot sunday morning.

and lastly...

This album has been out for quite a while now, but im currently in love with Rangers by A Fine Frenzy. Listen!

my favorite...

...the happiest place on earth!

my life as a nanny

looks like this most of the time.

i love (my?) boys.

once they saw me pull my camera out it was a serious mad house in that car.

im not sure what this face means.

this one got a good laugh out of them. for about three whole minutes nonstop. not joking.

note to self: dont get to tae kwon do too early anymore.

happy
