Just the other day when Jimmy and I were at Home Goods rummaging through their goodies, I said to him, “Why does Valentines have to be so tacky?” I mean, the bright pink hearts and shiny red plasticy things are definitely not appealing. On top of that I’m really into heart shaped chocolate cases and white teddy bears. So, aside from white and pink candles, there’re nothing elegant about V-day.
Fast forward to last Thursday.
2 days ago I came home to a beautiful bouquet of tulips. And guess what? I LOOOOVVE tulips! They are my absolute favorite! If it wasn’t for their price, I would buy myself a bouquet of tulips everyday and surround myself with them. AND this is what my card said:
I guess Jimmy was listening to what I said.
I guess V-day is not so tacky after all.
I love it when kids are so excited to show me something. Usually it’s their toys or their drawings. For Miss T, it was her awesome backyard.
Check it out!
She also made sure I took a photo of her Ariel slippers.
…and her rock collection
Some call it sky blue. Others may describe it as pastel, light blue or the ugly LA Unified blue. I, on the other hand, think that the BEST name for this color is “bright light blue”.
I’m not an expert on paint, color coordination, or anything related to decorating. Everything you see was decided by Jimmy. All I did was drool over the color and stress over the outcome.
So here you go…our *new* and *improved* living room! And just cause I love it when they show before and after photos on HGTV, I decided to do the same.
Before: Boring white wall
After: A splash of color with tons of shelves to display photos and our favorite books!
Whadda think?
Here’s a sneak peak from my latest photoshoot. You may recognize her from the previous post. She will be my official model for 2009.
Alright, yesterday’s post was about my dad and he got his 24-hour of glory. Now it’s my turn. Guess what? I got accepted to be a part of WPPI! (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) This is a HUUUUGGEEE deal for me since WPPI is one of the largest and respected photographer organization. It’s definitely an honor be a part of it.
Whoo Hoo~!
