Fun in the Sun…Valley.

A few years ago, err like 20 to be exact–my parents took my brother and I to St. Anton, Austria to celebrate their 20th Wedding Anniversary over Christmas. The spot was chosen as they took a ski honeymoon in Austria following their wedding. So it was very befitting as they are about to celebrate their 40th Anniversary this year, that we took another family vacation to a ski destination that reminds me very much of the Austrian villages and ski slopes we visited 20 years ago, to Sun Valley, Idaho.

Sweatermas 2010

Wow, I can’t hardly believe it’s the end of December, almost the end of the year. And not much posting. VERY VERY sorry. I will make it up to you with some juicy material from this point forward. It’s a promise. First up Sweatermas. Or in my case, hideous Christmas Dress’mas. Now we have closed in on our 3rd Annual of this cooky holiday tradition. And I have to say, the guests did not dissapoint. As a matter of fact, folks really took it to the next level. Some of the flavor (literally) of the night included a meat tree,…

Laughing All the Way…

Ha ha ha I can hardly contain my excitement for our 3rd Annual Sweatermas Party. See last year’s post. This is your not-so-basic (as each year, I notice the guests taking it to the next level) ugly sweater party. It’s important to set the mood with festive invites like these kitchy snow globe invitations that I handcrafted. If you can believe, I actually glittered some of them! I found the paper at local paper and stamp store, Impress located at my favorite, “open air lifestyle shopping center”, University Village. Or U Village as we call it. (I apologize in advance…

Happy Chic

I thought this would be an ironic and apropos post considering my new recent and major “change of status” in the employment department. More about that later… But alas, this title, doesn’t only refer to me, but one of my favorite designers, Jonathan Adler. (Very short aside, I am cracking up, as people who read this sort of make fun of me that I will use any word paired with “Chic” while bloggin’, and it’s true! Ahh, I love it when people make fun of me to my face!) So, I thought of this post while perusing Barnes & Noble…

Runnin’ Down a Dream

Growing up, I was a day dreamer. I would dream of what my life would look like someday. Funny enough, in so many ways, what my life has become, is pretty close to what I dreamed up. Granted, there has been a surprise or two along the way, but isn’t that what makes things interesting? I know there have been books written about this, like The Secret, It states that everything one wants/needs may be accomplished by only wishing it. Do you believe it? What is your ultimate dream? Is it a profession you should have sought out and didn’t…a…
