still on european vacation...

sorry for the abrupt lack of posts...organizing for the trip got a bit crazy. we're still away and having an amazing time {despite the fact that patty got a cold in scotland & london!}. here's a sneak peak of our travels and i promise to post photos and a full report when i'm back!

missing you all out there in the blogosphere! xox

european vacation...dumfries, scotland

at the end of our ireland trip, we are spending one night in dublin, then patty's mom flies home to los angeles. we catch a flight to scotland and will be staying two nights in dumfries. i'm really excited to see this part of scotland...we're stopping in dumfries to stay with my friend lesley, who i stayed with for a while when i lived in seattle. she's from scotland and now is married with a child...she and her family live in an old school house. how charming. i haven't seen her since 1999! i'm so excited...

next stop: london...

european vacation...first destination: clifden, ireland

today is seven days and counting until we leave for our european vacation. our first stop will be clifden, ireland. why clifden? well, patty's grandma oona is from this town and patty's mom has always wanted to visit. so, we're taking patty's mom! we'll be in clifden for a week and we don't have anything planned. since we are with her mom, i figured we'd stay in one place and take little day trips if we want to. or, just walk around the cute town.

we're staying in a really sweet bed and breakfast...can't wait!

tomorrow, destination number two: dumfries, scotland

happy friday

are you kidding me??? mobile cupcakes?! mobile ice cream!! soon to be mobile donuts, too, i hear (you called it esb, donuts.)...

the only thing that would make them perfect is if the mobile trucks ran on biodiesel!!

enjoy your weekend...

now that i have a cute bike...

i've been riding it. i ride on sunset blvd, so busy and lots of traffic. and yes, i wear a helmet. i know i have to. but it's so. not. cute. i have a cute bike, but where's the cute helmet??

i'm thinking about one of these and then maybe crafting it with feathers, appliques, etc? maybe an awesome etsy vendor would make it cute?

what do you do for a helmet?
