Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you all had a lovely and safe New Years! Last night, Patrick and I got all gussied up and went to dinner at Gracie’s, which was delightful. I’ve had this black velvet and turquoise dress for over a year, but have never worn it. Sad, I know! It’s such…

This Christmas was a little different. Normally we travel to my dad’s for Christmas morning, but this year my dad and brother came to us! I opted for a more casual look, as Patrick and I prepped a breakfast buffet for my family. After good food and presents, the remainder of the day was…

Last night Patrick’s mother and sister came over for an early Christmas, as they will be spending it with more of Patrick’s extended family over the next few days at a secluded cabin, while we will be spending it with my side of the family. I woke up early to get a pot roast in…

December has arrived! And with it, the anticipation of Christmas. Today I finally wrapped up decorating and am eager to put presents under the tree, that is after I get myself Christmas shopping!

For Halloween this year we went to a Kick-Ass Oregon History event at the Jack London, which included tales of northwest satanism and suicide and some burlesque performances, including one of my friends. While costumes were encouraged, and there was even a costume contest, I hadn’t planned a costume, and my last minute costume didn’t…

The real “goal” of going to Disneyland this go around was to attend one of Mickey’s Halloween Parties, something I’ve never done before. These parties, which take place during select nights during the Halloween season, are the only time when those over the age of nine are permitted to wear costumes, and since I love…

Last night Patrick and I participated in libations and laughter at AlexSandra’s (that is of course of AlexSandra’s Vintage Emporium) New Years celebration. It was an evening of delightful conversation, liquor and vintage party hats and noise makers… For the evening I wore a different dress than I intended…I purchased a delightful silver number at…

I hope that the holiday season is treating you all wonderfully! This evening we’re headed over to Patrick’s aunt and uncle’s for dinner with loads of his family, including some I haven’t met. Sometimes I try to tone down my vintage-ness when I’m around people who don’t really know me because often such people, to…
