This weekend I will be hosting a holiday dinner for my family! Every year we host a holiday dinner at our house to give back to our family for everything they do for us. This year it is going to be a casual event since we have so much going on. We really don’t have [...]
“Clearly I have no issues with dressing like a dude! This was back in 2005 when my friend, Michelle (aka Studio Surface), and I dressed up as Napoleon Dynamite and Pedro. I have to say, I was pretty impressed with our costumes. And, I think we annoyed our co-workers by being in character the entire day.” Beth [...]

Although the images above (via) all make me chuckle…I mean, seriously…the sailor? hippie? (Nice afro, btw.) Is it too much? My dog Tucker says Y-E-S! I tried [...]
We had a great trip to Austin, albeit a quick one! I was stuck in a conference most of Saturday, so Kevin and Max took Austin by storm. They hit South Congress with all of it’s funky shops and great eateries. I really loved seeing the shots from their time together. We did get to [...]
It’s that time of year when all of the creepy crawlies and ghosts & ghouls come out of the woodwork… And, let’s face it, some of the Halloween paraphernalia can be scarier then the holiday itself. Here are a few chic ways to sport your Halloween spirit! I mean… I think I could adorn that snake ring [...]
