Already went to the chapel

Whenever I check out other girls' blogs the first thing I look for is pictures from their weddding, home, honeymoon, and family. I love to snoop and get a glimpse of how others live! So today, and possibly tomorrow, I will be posting some of the pictures that I so love to see from other people. First up...our wedding! Back in the day when I got married "artistic" photography wasn't as well established as it is now. Bummer. I would have totally loved to get some more creative shots since our photos are so traditional. Next time... just kidding. :) To some of my dear friends this will be old news but to all my new blogger friends, enjoy!

matt and i were married here at a small church in our town on march 31, 2007

 matt and i chose to see each other before so we could take photos. this was taken right after he saw me :)

 Matt and I are lucky to have had such a great wedding with wonderful family and friends. It's been over four years now! Crazy. First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby carriage (ok well not yet but soon!)

Takin' care of business

Wednesday, June 8, 2011

I guess I got busy with life because I realized that I never finished photographing our home! Today's post will feature the bathroom. That's right, THE bathroom. We only have one in our little bungalow. Which means sometimes one of us is stuck doing the "potty dance." :) However, I do love that our bathroom is roomy (for a 1916 home). Here is our current bathroom...enjoy!

 i love the rug in front of the sink. my mom bought matching ones for her and me at restoration hardware. it is made out of what appears to be women's nylon material!

 got this mirror for free from a restaurant matt worked at in SLO. we spray painted them gold in college where they adorned our house till we moved out. now they glam up the bathroom! ps the towels are from Anthro. i love them.

 i like to have white towels. i think they look clean and i like that i can bleach them. :)

 another jewelry holder. but not as cool as this one. There is that white watch!

 fancy details on the (once black and purple) mirror

 i needed more storage in our bathroom so we bought this little number at target. my brother put it together for us "for fun" because he likes building stuff. :)

 love having pictures everywhere in the house. bella as a pup, matt and i at the beach. plus a lovely smelling candle from Pottery Barn that my mom got us for christmas one year.

 ok so this towel is tan but i really do love white. :) my summer and winter robes are hanging up in the bathroom always. i have a small obsession on robes. like, i own 5. (hmmmm maybe i will post about that?!)

every bathroom needs four locks right? old houses are so funny and quirky! but that's why we love them!

Stay tuned for tomorrow's post on what i intend to do for the ever approaching re-model!
