Charming Wedding in Gorgeous Seattle

I was in Seattle with the little boy for my cousin's wedding. We were armed with sweaters and pants for the trip, but lo and behold - it was 82 degrees when we arrived at 11pm..crazy! This almost never happens in Seattle. Coming from Dallas, I was hoping to have the gloomy, grey day that Seattle is known for; instead, we were greeted with warm, balmy weather. Oh well!

THE WEDDING

The whole affair was quite charming - a quick ceremony followed by a reception at the Montecristo Hotel. The venue was quaint with some interesting architectural details. We had fun and we wish the couple all the best. Cheers!

Chaotic September

I can't believe summer is about to be officially over. Where did the time go? I have been extremely busy with packing and organizing and basically, just getting everything ready for my move to California next week. In addition to the move, I have just started a new business venture with my sister - Via Rue Travels (a fashion and lifestyle travel company). Hectic and stressful is an understatement, indeed, but I am loving every minute of it.

I will miss my house, especially my kitchen! My son and I will be moving to a 700 sq ft apartment which is a sixth of our house now. It will be interesting to see how we will manage. I will definitely share our adventures as mom and son in the Bay Area. Do you have any tips and tricks in downsizing?
