072023 I Was In Shock & New Arrivals!

 

Well, I had the SURPRISE of my life this past Saturday night.  Seriously…I think I am still in SHOCK!

As many of you know, I returned from Mexico last week and then worked all week.  And Friday night Indiana had a show in North Hollywood.  It was a late night!  I had to work all day Saturday and Sandy, Val and the store gals wanted to take me out for a birthday drink after work.  I did not WANT to go.  I was exhausted.

On the way to meet them at Gigi’s, I got a text from Sandy that said….

“Are you coming to GiGi’s?  I can’t stay long because I have the dogs.  Doug is in SF.  Cindy and Robin are here with me.  Susan & Peggy can’t come.”

I was like, Seriously WTF?  I said to Val, “I don’t want to go…do I have to?” and she said “Oh come on, it will be a quick drink.”

So, I walk in the door and it is dark, but I see balloons and a lot of people.  I don’t think anyone said “Surprise”, but BOY was I surprised!

Thank you to everyone who showed up.  It was beyond epic.  As I was walking towards Sandy while they were singing Happy Birthday she said I looked mad and I think I even punched her arm.  LOL!  Here I am with Sandy and Kelly after I calmed down :)!

I don’t know how Sandy pulled it off, but I had absolutely NO CLUE!

There were so many friends, consignors and customers there…it was awesome!  I will share more details and photos in the big ezine at the end of the month, but for now here is group photo.

Well Sandy was telling me about all of the people that she invited and she said, “I text your kids and they never got back to me.”

My response….”Oh well, typical.  They never text me back either”.  Then I turned around and who was walking in?  Houston, Indy, Emma, Grandpa and their friend Alex.  JOY JOY!

Sandy even made home cooked food for the entire party!

Happy Thursday!  And now for some new arrivals 🙂

071323 We Survived Cabo & New Arrivals!

 

Happy Thursday! We survived Cabo!  It was soooooo much fun!  Re-entry has been a little bit difficult.  I read 5 books on vacation and barely touched my computer.  What a treat!

One more fun pic from our trip.  We did go into town one day and had to hit up Squid Roe.  A LONG time favorite!

The last time I was in Cabo was December 2011 on a cruise with my family.  It was the last trip we would take with Kiki before she passed away in March of 2012.  Here are her boys, Zach and Kai dancing on the exact same ledge that is behind us on this recent trip.

We arrived back in LA on Sunday night and I spent the night at the kids condo in Marina del Rey.  The next day was Houston’s 27th Birthday and I took the kids out for breakfast.  So fun!   But more about that in my big ezine at the end of the month.

For now, here are the two Instagram posts that Indy did for my birthday and for Houston’s.  She is really funny!

Before I forget, I need your HELP!  We do only one ad per year and it is in the Ventura Visitor Inspiration Guide.  We LOVE this publication.  For the past two years we have used this green picture of Indy with Cha Cha which I love.

These are the contenders for this year’s ad.  Please vote for your favorite 🙂  Thanks!  Email  me your choice!  Photos by Kimberly Wallace 🙂

070623 OMG, It’s My Birthday & New Arrivals!

 

OK, today is actually my birthday and it is a BIG one!  For my 30th I was in Maui with William, my future husband, who proposed at Hana the day before I turned 30.  Pretty epic!

My 40th was spent in Spain with my sister Kiki.  Here we are and a story from one of my 100 Best Books.

My 50th was in Punta de Mita with my best friend from college, Juliette.

And for my….(well you can probably figure it out, but I will NEVER say this number out loud…LOL) birthday this year I am in Cabo with my two favorite people in the ENTIRE world.  Houston and Indy!

I was telling Val about all of my BIG birthdays and she started laughing.  She said “For my 30th we had Italian.  For my 40th we ate in a Chinese restaurant.  And for my 50th I think we had steak, but I honestly don’t remember.  For my 60th we ate in a Mexican restaurant”.  LOL.

It did make me realize how blessed I am to be able to spend these milestone birthdays someplace magical!
