tricked out stable

If my daughter Ryan could move into this stable....she would do it in a heartbeat.  A place to do art projects, and hang out........all while having a horse peering in the door......sign her up.

This tricked out stable belongs to Gwyneth Paltrow + Chris Martin...and is just one of the outlots on their recently purchased property.....'House of Windsor', which is 8,000 s.f.



















I'll hang out in the backyard............ ;)

15

When I woke up on the morning of September 19th, fifteen years ago, it was my wedding day.  15 years.  Wow, I can't believe how quickly it has gone by. 

It's been quite the ride these past 15 years.  Marriage is wonderful, but it takes work to make it successful.  It will push you in ways you've never thought possible, and it will hopefully make you stronger.

Brett is an awesome man, in many ways.  He's confident and doesn't get caught up in the little things...which I have a tendency to do.  He gets my sarcasm, and appreciates it (most days anyway ;)).  He's a wonderful father and has this ability to make Ryan + I laugh at the most ridiculous things.  He's a good egg. ;)

Cheers to 15 years!

by the way, how hysterical is this picture?...we look like we're teenagers...not 20 somethings...and don't even get me started on the hair, etc.  ;)

Miss Mary Mack...All Dressed in Black.....

The weather is slowly turning cooler, and I couldn't be more thrilled.  A cozy sweater, some tights (if you've ever met me you know I love a good pair of tights!), skirt/dress...............in black.  You can't go wrong with classic black.  Either in fashion or in home design elements.......always crisp and chic.

birthday to one of my best friends...Erika.

If you've ever had the pleasure of meeting and spending time with her, you know that she's an amazing woman.  One that I am proud that my daughter gets to call her aunt.

I wish you all things splendid this next year (and always)!.  I love you friend.
