2012 a Year in Review

It's really New Year's Eve! This was yet another blink in a second of an eye year for us. We had some amazing fun times last year.  Here's a look back at 2012 year in pictures. Have a safe and rockin' New Years lovelies!! We're so stoked for 2013

2012 to 2013

We rang in the New Year at the W hotel


 Liv rocked out in Scruffin Rock dance class


We finally gave our bedroom a mini-makeover

Best curbside find ever, Antz saved this trashy side table for only $10!!
I love our Owl lamp

 We spent my birthday at Legoland with Terry, Morgan & Kieran!


We raised our caterpillar Milton to grow into a beautiful butterfly


 We attended our 4th Nickelodeon Kid's Choice Awards


I made my first 6 layer rainbow cake *only took 5 hours to bake* as practice for Liv's Rainbow birthday party

Fortunate for me, my client was pleased with the outcome.
Kieran & Liv gave the cake a taste and it seemed to have met their approval

We fell in love with Portobello fries and tried chocolate covered BACON!!

Super yummy
I made Liv's birthday present, her name is Clementine.

Before I knew it we were off to Palm Springs for Liv's rainbow 2nd birthday weekend at The Sagauro hotel *one of the most fabulous places we've stayed at*.

I added some rainbow decorations to our room
My rainbow cake became a leaning tower due to the heat but Liv still loved it
 
Liv got some sweet gifts, including her awesome scooter

It's obvious we had a miserable time


We took Clemmy to check out the new Sprinkles Ice Cream



 
It was just as amazing as their cupcakes
June is always a busy month for me, a few weeks later it's was Antz birthday so we went to his favorite hotel, The Palms in Las Vegas.

Since we have been staying at the hotel for years since our honeymoon in 2002, we were upgraded to a Sweet Suite! My photos don't do it any justice.

We visted the Neon Boneyard *which was on my Life List*



Then next month, right back to Vegas we went for one night with Aimee.


The American gymnastics team took gold in London



We went to the Renegade Craft Fair for a second time *my favorite summer event*


My baby started ballet class *and I almost died from cuteness overload*



Antz & I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary with a lovely pop up dinner on the same beach we were married on with a few of our friends.









The space shuttle Endeavour made a historic flight right over our backyard




We had houseguests all the way from Paraguay, our niece and nephew Evelyn & Dion were in town on break from the Peace Corp.




I had a magical night with Jeff Goldblum *sometimes I have to pinch myself*




Nerding out with Jeff
I went to Blogger heaven at Oh Joy's book signing at West Elm. I met Joy, Emily Henderson and saw old friends Bri & Jen.

We had our first Trunk or Treat at Liv's school and made our Adventure Time costumes


After THREE Halloween parties, we took Liv Trick or Treating in Eagle Rock with Terry, Morgan & Kieran

Party #1 for Eric Garcetti candidate for Mayor
Party #2 Tom & Jess's Adventure Time soiree
Party #3 Antz won second place as Jake the dog at his job's Costume contest with help from Liv's cuteness as Beemo



President Obama was re-elected and Elizabeth Warren won a seat on the Massachuetts senate.


Liv became a Mommy to her goldfish, Dory & Nemo


I unexpectedly scored on Black Friday

I finally got my Kate Spade bag of my dreams ON SALE!
Last year we attended Liv's pre-school Winter Solstice as perspective parents. This year Antz designed the poster and I was the Crafts Coordinator. 




The Renegade Craft Fair is so awesome we went again for the Holiday Market to buy Christmas gift.

This kid keeps growing and growing!
I had many fun dates with my BFF


I hit the film nerd motherland at the Stanley Kubrick exhibit at LACMA


We took Liv to see an endangered treasure.




2012 have been good year for our family. I had the great fortune to welcome three beautiful babies *Sophie Bloom, Chayanne Michele & Finian Everett*  into my life. We have been blessed with health, family, friends, prosperity and happiness. I look forward to a bright 2013. Happy New Year!!
