a few of my favorite things

{I do love my Vera Wang shoes, but this is more about the beautiful leaves.}

It’s not hard to look around you and take a moment to appreciate little blessings along your way.  For my favorite things posts, I usually use pictures that I have taken during the week.  However, today was so full of little moments, that this is a perfect reflection of my day.   It’s always amazing me how good I feel when I take in a moment and let it light up my heart.  I hope for all of you to do the same.

It’s Friday and I’m on a mission to get the tree and bling- a-ling -a -ling the house. Have a fantastic and festive weekend.  Don’t forget to breath and take in the good around you…  Share with the rest of us what you discover? {Encinitas Surf on a gloomy day.  Beautiful, no matter what kind of day it is.}

{OMG, Whole Foods Market, breakfast in a box.  I can’t even tell you how excited I was this morning to discover breakfast in addition to awesome everything.}

{I drove right over the top of this to watch the surf this morning.  I didn’t notice it until I headed to my car.  It’s painted in the middle of the street.  I loved it!}

{Ola amigos, Penelope is sporting her new sombrero .  Mimi’s friend Lauren got it for her from her trip to Mexico.  So sweet Lauren, Thank You!}

{This sign is in my salon, Bombshell in Encinitas.  I had to take a picture, because this is the song I sang to Myles when he was a little boy.  I have a video of him at about 3 or 4 singing every single word.  Absolutely made my heart smile to think of it.}

{Adorable Melissa, my stylist at Bombshell.  She is getting ready to have her first baby, a girl.  I’m excited and grateful that I got to see her every two weeks while she was on her prego journey.  Melissa, you are adorable and you will be such a good Mommy.}xoxo, Julie

weekend where to go in aptos

Where to go in Aptos California, Gayle’s Bakery and Rosticceria.  I traveled with my children to Dad and Audrey in Aptos California several moths ago.    Audrey grew up in the area and knows just where to go for anything you want.   We wanted breakfast, so we headed over to Gayle’s, a local favorite.  Gayle’s has something for everyone.   I had the tart, Mimi had the quiche and Myles had a breakfast sandwich.  The food was delicious and the charming details make it a one of a kind, must see. We loved  it…. Make every day an event. xoxo
