Day 58: a little bit premature

Catherine



So, I know that I'm only 18 but I can appreciate the beauty of a wedding. They are simply gorgeous. Take a look at this wedding web site. Yes, these weddings are a bit eccentric. And yes, maybe I love the photography and the couples more than the weddings themselves but how beautiful!

day 57: glo

Kenzie



Is anyone else a fan of glo, the online magazine that MSN launched on April 10 of 2010? Basically, It focuses on style, life, and, beauty, and relationships. It's one of those sites that you can get lost in and loose total lack of time, so don't say I didn't warn you.

Check it out here; I promise you'll love it.

Day 56: Happy Birthday Dad

Kenzie


SUCH a fun birthday for dad...

Yesterday was his actual birthday, but we celebrated today to best accommodate schedules etc.. Church this morning before heading to brunch at hotel zaza...(seriously every time I walk in that place i feel like i jumped into la... can we say chic??). Basically the whole famly spent the afternoon teaching dad how to use his new ipad he got from my grandfather, and then we kicked back for swimming and a fun cookout dinner.

Here are a few pics I snapped through the day...

Don't these chandeliers inspire you??

Dad Taylor (and Ivey..probably the happiest of the group)

Day 55: Dream Home

Catherine


I did a bit of research today because I've been thinking. It's much more important to me to live in a house that I love than to have extra rooms. In fact, I believe that a space affects relationships. Often times vast houses cause the families who live in them to become disconnected and distant. I would want to live in a place where I would almost be forced to be with the people I love. Here's my favorite pictures that I found in Veranda and Architectural Digest.

I've always loved cool colors, but I especially like blue, purple, and green mixed with whites and creams



I love this porch. The huge sliding windows and doors are beautiful and open.



These beams make the room. What an elegant divide and a cozy way to have tall ceilings.



Colorful gazebo combined with a fireplace: cozy cozy cozy.



This window seat looks comfortable and cohesive. It works in relation to the room too.

day 52: style quiz

Kenzie


Today I took this quiz from Elle magazine that gives your fashion personality. The coolest thing is that it gives ideas of what to buy to match your style. I'm not sure it really matched me correctly with "thrill seeker," but still well worth answering the ten questions about myself.



Day 51: A Very Happy Birthday

Catherine





So. Pop turned 80! He's a wonderful, extremely unique man with more passion than the rest of the world combined. I got the job of being the party photographer. Don't you just love family with all their quirks? Happy Birthday Pop!
