2011 in LA

we went there more for a wedding than new years, but the new year will sneak up no matta where you at!  and - turns out the ladies (minus the bride) needed someone to do their hair and make up.

my husband being the popular one that he is, was one of the groomfellas - fourth time in the second half of 2010! (why am i yelling)

boys!  space out the weddings will ya. kidding :)

in all honesty, it was quite nice to be able to spend new years in la.  nothing crazy, really.  just spent some time by the fire on the beach, got dressed up to go to downtown disney, and then turned around to come back to our hotel JUST in time to watch the ny ball drop in nyc - in that order.  we're so old!  i bet downtown disney would have been fun - but i don't regret cozying up in bed.











the beach was so cold i layered every possible jacket/sweater/cardigan i brought (which i later regretted since it all smelled like campfire)


the dwtwn disney plan would have been fun.  i kind of went bolder with my make up for the occasion


i'm glad we came back though, the traffic wasn't worth it.  and we were exceptionally pooped.  

and then 1.1.11 - the hall wedding

(i love blurry bride photos! they make her seem like a dream.  and they're coincidentally easier to make)


love this shot!
