Mrs. French Bulldog, Orange CountyAge and Occupation: 28, Administrative Assistant & Interior Design StudentFiance's Age and Occupation: 28, Purchasing AnalystEngagement Date: November 8, 2008Wedding Date: August 2009Venue: Bernardo WineryAbout Me: I've lived in Atlanta, Dallas and Laguna Niguel; although I've lived in Orange County, CA most my life, I'm a Southerner at heart. I work full time for a Commercial General Contractor (aka my father) and I go to school for Interior Design at night. I love modern design, music, wine, crafting, DMailing, my family, my Westies, and of course, Mr Frenchie! Mr Frenchie and I met 3 years ago on Match.com and have been best friends ever since. I love his "old soul" and how he laughs with his whole body, among many other things. We are planning our summer wedding at the winery near his hometown, just 45 minutes south of Orange County.
Last week our photographers stopped by our apartment on their way back from Disneyland for Kimi’s birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIMI!) and dropped this off…

I also love cats, coffee, and know every quote written on Sex & the City. I'm known to laugh really loud and have really crazy hand gestures while I talk. My fiance writes songs and I take pictures. What else? We're just a crazy young couple in love, trying to make a fabulous wedding!
I’ve never been a consistent “scrapbooker” mainly because it’s so time consuming and easily takes over my life. What starts out as a free afternoon turns into a 3AM mess of glue, cute paper and tiny scissors with no food, water or bathroom breaks. (Who’s with me on this?!)
I tried to finish our wedding scrapbook before our 1 year mark…. but I just couldn’t do…

I thought I’d give you all a tour of where my fiance and I have decided to live. A newly built 2 bedroom 2 full bath apartment of a 4-family condo somewhere in NJ.
“Welcome~!”
The kitchen where I’ll be cooking most of the time and where my fiance will be doing dishes most of the time. Hee Hee~!

Every month The Oprah Magazine features things that Oprah thinks are great in a feature called The O List. This month I loved these vibrant, stylish gym bags from Koie Products which have separate compartments for your shoes, clothes, ipod, etc. I’d really want this if my lazy ass actually worked out. A great gift for the sporty bridesmaid, available in 6 colors for $75.

Mrs. Grasshopper, New YorkAge and Occupation in 06: 28, Interactive CommunicationsFiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Product ManagerEngagement Date: October 8, 2005Wedding Date: September, 2006Venue: The FoundryAbout Me: I like puppies, technology, baked goods and naps. Our engagement went down in Paris on the Alexander III bridge where my fiance nearly dropped the ring into the Seine.
That’s what Mr. Grasshopper’s grandmother said the day after the wedding. The Grasshoppers are back from Kauai, rested and married! Our wedding was better than I ever could have anticipated. We are still waiting on the rest of our professional photos, but here are a few to start:
Pre-wedding photos in Dumbo.

Mrs. Caterpillar, New York/CAAge and Occupation in 06: 28, Corporate Attorney to beFiance's Age and Occupation: 29, MusicianEngagement Date: March 9, 2006Wedding Date: September, 2006Venue: Rooster PointAbout Me: I don't like Jeff Koons, mushy corn, or the unnecessary diacritical marks the New Yorker adds to words like cooperative. Also, I'm an obsessive compulsive when it comes to crafts. And not just the ordinary kind of obsessive compulsive who needs to have everything even and aligned. No. I've gilded the heads of pins to make sure they looked properly antique. Gilded them. Then coated them in german glass glitter. I am that crazy.
Mr. Caterpillar and I only had 4 days between our wedding/reception(s) and the wedding of the lovely Megses, so I figured we were going to stay somewhere relatively local for the minimoon — local meaning maybe we could find a tent or build a fort in my parent’s backyard. But, Mr. Caterpillar is a super genius, and he surprised me with a trip to One…

I saw this over at the People’s Design Awards - a transparent foldable kayak!
The award winning Napali kayak from Clear Blue Hawaii is the way to experience kayaking because you can see right through it! If you’re lucky enough to be honeymooning in the crystal clear waters Hawaii, Bermuda, St. Thomas or Bali - you can rent one at these locations.
