Old MacDonald?

Little Miss Lila is quite the singer these days. She even makes up her own words as she goes along :)

Her favorite songs are Old MacDonald, Twinkle Twinkle, The ABC song, and Wheels on the Bus. I'll try and get another rendition next time!

I've Been Vaughan-Deadlied...

This is straight from the namesake of my son Vaughn, one of my favorite Australians, and he also happens to be in my favorite Australian band (if not one of my all time favorite bands), The Goons of Doom. He has a great blog, Vaughan Deadly, that makes me crack up every time I read it. 

Thanks for the flattering likeness Blakey!

Rocket ship Park

The kid's favorite park is this one Vaughn likes to call rocket ship park in Laguna Beach. I love it too. It's huge, there is something for every age kid, it has bathrooms, AND it's completely fenced in. Not to mention it's beautiful and there are plenty of shady spots to sit and watch the kids play.

I'm a Shoe!

My very talented friend Celine, aka The Shoe Girl, just launched her own shoe line called Cece L'amour, and she named one of the pairs after me! Juli! 

I feel incredibly special.

And it's a gorgeous shoe too!

Thanks Celine and congratulations on such a gorgeous line! xoxo

MIA

Sorry, I have been a little depressed lately and haven't felt much like blogging. So here are some instagram photos that I love to fill in the blanks. Hopefully I will be back to normal soon. I'm starting a new medication for anxiety and depression tomorrow and I start school full time on the 29th! So I better get better!

I cheated, this isn't from instagram, but it's an awesome picture from our trip to the Long Beach Aquarium!

(I'm just slightly obsessed with the instagram app after FINALLY getting my first iPhone :)

Date Night

Willie and I went out for the usual sushi dinner and drinks last night, just not at the usual place. We decided to switch it up and went to The Lab in Costa Mesa. We had drinks first at Habana, then sushi at Zipangu. I hadn't been there in years and honestly didn't even know if it was the same owner, but we were both pleasantly surprised. The service was fantastic and the sushi rolls we ordered were really good. I got one called the vampire roll that had crispy garlic bits sprinkled over the top. I was seriously in heaven. After dinner we headed to Buffalo Exchange to just be silly but we both ended up finding some awesome stuff. I left with a cute red t shirt and an amazing Betsy Johnson dress for 25 bucks. Psyched! It was a really nice date night. Something different. Can't wait for next week :)
