A Day of Polo!

A couple of weeks ago I spent an absolutely perfect day at the San Diego Polo Club. As the Mom to 4 sons I've spent many a day watching baseball, basketball, football, soccer, golf, track and field, and even rollerblading.  But we'd never watched Polo. This was a new experience, a reason to CELEBRATE!!

We gathered friends and family. Everyone was given their food, or beverage, assignment, and we headed for tailgating. I came prepared with the basic rules for spectators (helps curtail the disagreements), the pop-up canopy (but my forehead still burned and peeled), lots of chairs. It was perfect! Relax, enjoy the company, have a new experience (stomping the divets a la "Pretty Woman")...

This is how we do Polo....
Planned to a T Style!

Time to get ready for fall...

After spending a day this past weekend at  The Vintage Marketplace , I decided that it is time to transition our home into fall. I am a California Girl and really love the sun. My mind really likes to hold onto Summer and postpone fall as long as possible.  I have several fall events in the works and really needed that boost. The creative displays and decor really got my creative juices going.

Soooo...it's time to take this amazing birdcage that I found at The Vintage Marketplace

And these fun crows that I found at Michaels...

and some flowers and newspaper..



And get our home ready for fall!  What's your project for today?
