Dad's 48th Birthday

The old man turned 48 this week... Actually he's a pretty young 'old' man. And a grandfather at that. 

We made some bomb food (guac burgers, fried cheese fritters, salad and french fries) along with two of my dad's favorite desserts (inside out carrot cupcakes and pumpkin bars).

My 6 year old sister gave him some pretty funny presents like an apology for cutting half her hair off at school the other day (oh yeah, it happened). 

And then we sang him happy birthday with a 'poop' candle from kokocandles. Amazing night. 

The Renegade Craft Fair Los Angeles, Folks.

Thank you, Los Angeles, for a wonderful weekend. 

Here are a few pictures of our booth!

Hope to see you again next year! 

For all those nap haters...

I don't know about you, but I LOVE taking naps. My husband calls them 'sleeps' because my naps are usually a long time... Like 90 minutes or so. But a friend sent this over to me and I'm so glad she did because now I feel even better about taking my 'sleeps'. And it'll come in handy to show my husband the next time he makes fun of me for taking a mid-day snooze. 

This morning's activities...
