I am so thrilled to share my latest craft project, nearly two years in the making! Ever since I married into baseball fandom (thank you Alex), I started bringing my own hobbies to the ballpark.

When Charles decided he wanted to propose to Jessica, he wanted to keep it low-key, and he wanted to keep it a…
She said yes! After she swatted at him with the garden map, haha. What a fun proposal, filled with genuine surprise, love, joy, and so many giggles. Evan originally had a very different proposal planned, for a completely different week down in Santa Cruz at their first date spot. But after accidentally tipping her off…
Summers in San Francisco can be notoriously cold and foggy, but Emily and Josh were rewarded with only the most beautiful, sun-kissed day for their wedding in the Presidio.
