I don't have to tell you, that I'm slightly partial to outdoor weddings. One place that is beautiful to get married in, is outside on the West Coast! From coastal beaches, to vineyards to rolling hills, there are countless amazing venues. Did I mention the weather? Big skies, sunshine and wide open spaces! From late April, to late October you can enjoy the outdoors!
Hope you had a great Easter weekend! I'll be posting pictures soon. I love this deep, rich fig color, so pretty with pink, cream and aqua!
I saw this on Etsy and had to laugh:-)
On a funny side note: I answered the door yesterday for the appliance repair man, and the first thing he said was.. "Are you 18 or older?"
"What?"
"We can't service your stove unless someone in the house is 18 years old or older."
Wow, you even had to think about that? I'm 31, with a two and half year old running around and I'm 6 months pregnant... I really thought that of any time in the last decade, this would be the one time I didn't look like a kid in high school! Guess not.

This weekend we were in SoCal and decided to take Emma to the San Diego Zoo. We are making the rounds, while she is still free in most parks and I'm not too big to walk around. We decided against Sea World and Legoland this trip because we knew we were going to have to go on a weekend and we didn't want to stand in to many lines with a 2 year old. Plus Emma is still too short to ride most rides at amusement parks, and the zoo costs 1/2 as much and has free parking.
Emma is really into animals now and it was a perfect choice for her. The zoo was busy, but it's so big we could easily avoid the crowds. I would definitely recommend bringing a stroller, and walking shoes, because there is lots of walking.
There is lots for little ones to do, including an open petting zoo with goats and sheep, Emma's favorite!
She wanted to kiss all the goats! There was also a kid's play area, lots of animal feeding times and about a million animals to see! We took the guided bus tour and the air tram thing too, which Emma loved. (Emma called it flying like "Tinky Bell".
Emma's favorite was the "Polley Bear". Troy loved the lion that roared at us and my favorite is always the otters.. here is a river otter below. Hope you had a great weekend!
