Hello! Thanks for the sweet comments about Rye's collections and the new mint design. I'm terrible about responding to comments but I do read them all and appreciate every one.
We were in and around Seattle last week. I forgot to bring my camera but here are a couple shots that other people took of us.
Hi! We were on the road last week. We drove down to Santa Barbara and made a few stops along the way to Pope Valley, San Luis Obispo and San Fracisco. The little one traveled like a champ - most of the time, at least. These photos are from the mission in Santa Barbara.
On another note, I've been really interested in the series this week on the cup of jo blog about balancing work/life/motherhood. This issue has been a big challenge for me to figure out. I'm still working on it.
Tomorrow the little one and I will be flying to Minneapolis. I just picked up this backpack/tote for our trip. I've tried a few diaper bag options and so far nothing has worked as well as I'd like. Hopefully this one will do the trick.
We went to California last weekend to meet up with family. I still need to sort through my photos but I thought this one was cute.
Here are a few photos from our trip to Sayulita, Mexico. We went in January and it's taken me this long to post them! Life is busy...
The day after my birthday we headed up to seattle for my brother's wedding - which was fantastic. We stayed on bainbridge island at my mother-in-law's house. These photos were taken on the beach near her home. More on the trip soon.

When I travel I rarely spend time shopping. My suitcase usually returns with pretty much the same items I brought with me. But on this last trip to Mexico I came home with a couple extra things, including this large green and pink stone necklace. Those are solid rocks strung on a cord - it's a heavy piece of jewelry.
Although I don't wear jewelry often, if I'm going to wear something it's probably going to be a necklace and there's a good chance it will be big. The bottom photo shows my current favorites from my collection - the necklace from Mexico and two goodwill finds.
I wish I could have squeezed in just one more day at the beach but otherwise I'm happy to be back home. Now it's time to get started with 2010.
Hi friends. I'm taking off for a week in Mexico. I'm looking forward to relaxing in the warm sunshine. I plan to come back in January rested and ready to tackle a handful of fun projects and get back in the habit of posting in the space more regularly again.
Happy New Year!
Wow! I'm back in Ashland after an absolutely jam packed weekend and it is quite hot outside. The summer social was a really sweet event. I'll post a little more info about it soon. A bit of rest and cooling off is on the top of my list right now.
Here are a couple photos from a motel that is right off of I-5 somewhere between Ashland and Eugene (I know that's not very specific!). It always catches my eye when we drive past.
