Wedding Frenzy

All along I was not really that into the Royal Wedding hoopla.  Yes, I had my very own little crush on Prince William back in the day, but just like his hair, so went my crush.  My interest was just not there with it being all I saw on Twitter/entertainment news over the last week or so. "We are not in Britain!  Why do they all care so much?" I wondered.  I felt a little more like the girl in the bottom left corner of this photo.

Like, "Can it just be over already?"

But then the other day, after stumbling upon a few shows about William and Kate (now Catherine...I wonder how she feels about having to change her name?  Brides usually have a hard time changing their last name, can you imagine changing your first as well?)  I sort of got sucked in.  So, I tried to stay up and watch the wedding, though set our DVR just in case.  I made it to about 1:30 am, and decided that the actual wedding was too far off, and that I was going to sleep.  I somehow just woke up as Kate was exiting her car, and was able to get a view of her dress.  It was GORGEOUS!  

Very Grace Kelly.

I tried  to stay awake for the ceremony, but sort of had my eyes closed for most of it, so I may go back to see a few bits of it on the DVR.  

I love that they drove away in this little car from the palace.

Spring In Your Step

Spring is definitely here.  Some days have felt down right hot even.  So with the warmer weather, we've been spending more time outside.  Little L has been enjoying this immensely, as any two year old would.  Pretty much every day he asks to go play at the park, or in the yard.  And, allergies and energy permitting, he does.

Photo of the Day: Easter Edition

Happy Easter!

Hope you have a wonderful Easter!

I Forgot!

I meant to mention a while ago that Erica (of San Francisco...Sometimes) and I did a little collaboration a couple weeks ago.  By collaboration, I mean we decided to do something besides dinner before seeing a movie, and did a photo shoot instead.  Go check it out :)

Bunny Napkins

Since tomorrow is Easter, I've been looking around for some decorative ideas for our family gathering.  I came across these bunny napkins on the Martha Stewart website (which honestly, were a little confusing, since they were just diagrams instead of pictures).  But, you don't even need to go there, cause I have the directions and photos here for you!

First, lay out your napkin flat, top side down.

Next, fold in the top and bottom portions like a piece of paper going in an envelope.  It should now be 1/3 of the size.

After that, you'll fold the two corners down the middle, so it looks like this.

Next, you fold up the bottom corners, like this.

The next thing you do is sort fold/roll in the bottom portion of the napkin. (these are going to be the ears)

Flip your napkin over, ears facing up.

Fold up the bottom portion to make a triangle.

Now stand up your napkin, and tuck one of the corners back into the other.  Then stand up and you have your bunny napkin!

Bossypants

I just finished reading Bossypants, by Tina Fey.  It was so funny.  I would definitely suggest you go out and get this book, because it is a great read. You know how people are always on the hunt for a good book for vacations or for when they are sitting out by the pool?  Something good, but not too serious?  This is your book.  It took me not quite three nights to read it, and not like full late night reading.  So, it's definitely a quick read.  Go get it!
