    Dwell :: House Tour in Orange County

    August 18, 2015 /

      We had a chance to take a tour of the lovely Justine’s home.  She and her family moved into this neighborhood about two years ago but says she is still looking to do more things in the house.  I think it looks fabulous and love all the little touches that just say home.  You can tell a lot of thought went into the design of the home while keeping in mind her two adorable twins and husband.  Actually, she said her husband, Mike, had some input into the home décor, like the cool Buddha statue in the living room and superhero books in their new built-in, but most of the design comes…

    Summer Fun :: Learning How to Surf

    June 28, 2015 /

      My husband has been waiting patiently for our daughter to be a strong enough swimmer to teach her how to surf. He has been dreaming of one day heading to the beach with her and surfing the waves together since she first started to walk!  But he had to wait to teach her how to surf  and make sure she was a strong swimmer. Strong enough to take a couple tumbles in the surf.  I would advise the same if you are looking to teach your kids how to surf or have them try out a surf day camp.  If you are on the coast – check into local surf camps and see if…

    The Langham Huntington Hotel is a Must-See Travel Destination

    March 17, 2015 /

      In January I attended the PBS Winter Press Tour and had the fortune to stay at the lovely Langham Huntington, Pasadena Hotel which is situated at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains.  I always enjoy going to the PBS events because it reminds me how much I love their programming,  but this Winter Tour was extra special because of the accommodations courtesy of The Langham Huntington, Pasadena Hotel.     Driving through the gorgeous older Pasadena neighborhoods you are taken back in time. These neighborhoods were most likely built in the 1940’s and I can only imagine all the hustle and bustle of Hollywood during that time. To provide a visual,…
