Happy FIFTEENTH anniversary to us ♥️

We met during USC FEMBA program (Aug 2008) and got married 15 years ago today.

The OG’s know… we fished a lot before kids: freshly caught tuna parties , fish tacos, crab and even spring lobster.

We tried to get on the water, but between kid activities and the actual cost to go on a charter boat, the trips dwindled a lot.

Until we went discovered surf fishing 3 weeks ago and made it a family of 4 activity. It has been amazing to reconnect with a hobby that brought so much joy pre-kids and also get our kids “hooked” on fishing.

I’ve been gardening/fishing almost everyday and will soon share more (once I figure out how to not get sand/saltwater on my camera gear 🙄)

And in case you ever wondered where the “coastal” from Coastal Homestead came from… now you know 😜

So I guess … the couple who fishes together, stays together 😜 and yea we are both firstborns and very competitive with each other on fishing.

And yes. That last fish, for the real anglers know… I had to release it and couldn’t keep it 😭 but heard it’s good eating 😜

No fish. No regrets. Some days the cast matters more than the catch.

Context: I gave up a lot of hobbies to focus on my garden design business the past 5 years. Gardening was a hobby that I turned into a career where I had to win to make a living. Gardening became a chore.

Fast forward, a few weeks ago, I re-connected with my love for fishing and it’s been life changing. Grab my rod, run down to the beach, even if it’s for 30 min even if I don’t catch anything 10/10.

Moral of the story: Find what makes you feel alive, forces you to be present. That’s the biggest CATCH 🎣

Back in April, I flew to Georgia to meet my garden friends Yulia, Robbie, Jay, Brian, Ryan, Michelle, Katie, and Gretchen to breathe new life into very sad, brown landscape with . We filmed the whole thing, and my episode is out on YT this afternoon!

I’m so proud of our entire crew, swipe to see my friends and some sneak peeks! You’ll have to watch all the episodes to see how each of our design spaces reflect our personalities, but also tie together beautifully into an overall piece of art.

Time to pick some 🍋

These are grown in the chicken run, so they need to be scrubbed with 🧼. Chickens bathe in dust to clean themselves , but that means the dust gets kicked up into the air and are on the lemons too 🤢

I get a rough brush and dish soap and scrub away.

Squeaky lemon-y fresh 🍋

It’s Dahlia season 😍

If you’re not growing your own… this is your sign to do so. In my zone 10b, we can grow them year round.

All these flowers came off 3 plants and there are more on the plant, and I gave the ones past vase prime to my@chickens to snack on.
