Happy Happy!

I'm so sorry for the lapse in posts my readers! I've been completely preoccupied recently with a surprise event and I knew I would just want to write about the plans...so, alas...I had to refrain from some posts!

This past weekend was my husband's 30th Birthday! And a surprise it was (thankfully). After being able to keep various plans from him for the past couple of weeks I was finally able to let them all unfold.

The first surprise came Friday with his parents coming to town to celebrate their son's important day. Next came ice skating. Tony.Loves.Hockey! It was the least I could do on such a milestone to get a little ice time. Finally, after a little pizza and drinks at our apartment we hopped on over to Larry Lawrence Bar, which I must say was perfect! Larry Lawrence is in Williamsburg and not only was everyone there so helpful and accommodating but the space is just so great for large parties.

Finally came the actual Birthday day...Sunday, which we celebrated by having lunch with his family and mine and it was just a simple lovely day.

Happy 30th Birthday, babe! Love ya!

Holy Anthropologie!


Many of you who know me know that I love Anthropologie. I love the decor of the store and I love how special they make every piece of clothing and I love all of the other wonderful treats you can find for your home . You can imagine how excited I was to find out while reading Cup of Jo that they are putting together a wedding line! It's due spring of 2011! I'm sure it will be absolutely dreamy!

Diana F+ Camera




I realize that recently my posts have drifted more towards lifestyle blogging rather than events and weddings, mostly due to the learning curve of blogging (what can I post, images, links, etc.) but I promise to get a little more on point! But before that happens I thought I would tip my cap to the Diana F+ camera. Tony and I purchased this in the middle of January and I had high hopes to capture some images of our event in February. Alas, those pictures did not really turn out all that well. Good news is the random trip to Brighton Beach the following day did produce some cool pics! I like that it's sort of vintage, as if I had borrowed them from my fam's attic.
