Photo Diary: Big Bear

A few weeks ago we had a wonderful opportunity to spend the weekend in Big Bear at a cabin recently acquired by a dear friend's family. It was such a blessing to have this mini getaway, not only for rest and relaxation, but also for the chance to spend time with a family that is close in age, with a baby, and makin' it happen! Lauren and I have been friends since our Paul Mitchell beauty school days, back in 2005. In 2010, we shared an awesome experience of living together on two acres of Redwood forest, deep in the Santa Cruz mountains. She now lives in Las Vegas with her supportive man, Chris, and beautiful son, Isaac. We are looking forward to more adventures with this family and are blessed to have them in our lives!

We had a wonderful celebration for Luna's coming arrival this past weekend. There really are no words to describe the amazing experience it was. So much love, it was overwhelming! This upcoming weekend we're headed up to Big Sur (REDWOODS!), where some friends of ours are eloping. I was asked to come along as the photographer/hair stylist/makeup artist, and no doubt Oscar and I will definitely be enjoying the little vacation it's providing us with as well. Should be a really exciting time!

Happy May and happy Monday! Hoping it's beautiful and bright, wherever you may be.
