Since we've been spending so much time outside during the stay at home period, we've finally worked on some finishing touches to bring the patio together. A couple rugs, new throw pillows, another umbrella and finally having our tv installed have made a huge difference. Luckily the weather has been amazing so we can spend a lot outside. Jeff and I have especially loved sitting outside once the kids go to sleep at night.

Happy Tuesday! Between Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday I know lots of people are all online-shopped-out.

Now that I’m home every day and the weather is so nice I’ve been spending a lot more time in our backyard. Last year when we were doing our big home renovation we did a little updating to the backyard (see pictures below) and since then we’ve purchased a few things to utilize the space.

That said there are still some things on our wish list and hopefully we’ll get them checked off before summer. continue reading

As if things couldn’t get better, one of my best friend recently bought the unit next door… it’s like having a roommate without having a roommate if that makes sense.

Anyway, I looked for the perfect place for close to two months but it felt like two years because I was devoting every waking free moment to it. I was obsessive about checking MLS listings online and made my realtor take me to every open house in Los Angeles. Okay, maybe I’m exaggerating a bit but I was so happy to find this place and feel like I really lucked out. Side note, if anyone in LA needs a realtor, I’ve got you covered. Second side note, my photog and DSLR were gone so I took these with my little point and shoot. continue reading
