thinking of my grandparents today.

I took these pictures of Little Corona Beach in Corona del Mar 3 years ago right after my grandparents passed away. It is one of my most favorite places on earth. And reminds me of all things good about my childhood.

10 months.

do you pin?

noreply@blogger.com (nicole) — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 17:07:00 +0000

I have been mildly obsessed with Pinterest since doing the pin-it-foward event back in May 2010 (here is the link to my post)... and I knew it was only a matter of time before it became a HUGE hit! What I didn't know was that it was going to replace facebook for me... crazy, but true.

Do you use Pinterest yet? If not, you need to join ASAP.

firsts.
