L.A.'s Fashion District

Chandler and I went to L.A.'s Fashion District yesterday.



I think it has been more than 10 years since I've been there. Either my memory isn't very good or it has changed because it is definitely more like a little Mexican city than I remember. We didn't buy anything but it was fun to walk around.

Art Exhibit

This weekend my parents and I went to an art exhibit in L.A. This moon was in the parking lot. Pretty cute hey? It helps that my dad is so good at taking photos.

The exhibit was for students graduating with a Masters in Fine Arts and my cousin, Justin, was one of the seven students honored. I don't know him that well but I know he works as an artist for Blizzard (World of Warcraft), has had multiple paintings in the Ensign, and supports his wife and four children.

It was a beautiful day and super fun. Happy Father's Day! Yay!

Happy 4th Anniversary

It doesn't feel like 4 years, but sure enough, we had our 4th Anniversary this week. To celebrate we went to 21 Oceanfront in Newport Beach. We thought it was fine but not worth a repeat. The company was the best part.


I asked E to take my picture before we went. This dress is new and I like it. We seem to be struggling to get a good photo out of our camera lately. I don't know what has happened to it.


It was a great weekend. I'm looking forward to celebrating year after year.

Climb a Wall

I climbed the wall at the gym tonight. I asked the guy belaying to take my photo, but he kindly declined. Since there was a bunch of guys just watching me climb, I hoped one would be willing to take my photo while I climbed the wall, but no such luck.

After I made it to the top and back, he finally agreed to take my photo. Once he put my camera in his hands, I realized why he was so hesitant. Photography isn't his natural talent. It took him about six shots to get the one below. I felt bad I ever asked.
It was fun to do something different and surprisingly much easier than I expected. They commented about how fast I did it and gave me high-5s after I came back down.

As a side note, when I look at this photo, I think I look terrible. I have a huge forehead with gigantic line down the middle. I've been thinking about cutting my hair short again, but I'm not confident it will be an improvement. Enough vanity. :)

Aaaah...the Wisdom Teeth

I haven't been feeling my best for the past few weeks because I had my wisdom teeth out. I am finally on the mend and getting back into the swing of things.

I had a great Memorial Day weekend and finally got to go for a little 3 mile run for the first time in 3 weeks. I was surprised at how the holes in my mouth could affect so much of my everyday routines.

I'm doing great and loving the weather. :)
