Before and After: Three New Doors!
Ok, so we can’t DIY EVERYTHING that our house needs. Just like these projects back in 2017, there are a few things around the house that we needed to contract out to the professionals. This year we had a company come in and insulate / ventilate our house so that we have proper air flow…

Buena Buena update: Vintage Summer
Now that Derby is over, my brain has officially switched into summer mode. It’s a byproduct of growing up here; once Derby ends, there’s only a couple weeks left of school and then summer vacation! Of course this summer is a whirlwind of moving into a new house (more on that later) and not exactly…

Derby week 2017
Before I get into this, I have to admit we Louisville folks get tunnel vision when it comes to Derby and it’s hard to wrap our minds around the fact that the rest of the country doesn’t *really* care about the festivities. Derby absolutely consumes us – it’s “the most wonderful time of the year…in Louisville.” I actually…

Kentucky Derby Festival Balloon Glimmer
Things usually go quiet on the blog when I’m feeling super busy; the more I have to write about, the less chances I have to actually sit down and write. Part of that is my complete inability to set a schedule for myself, but now that I’m working from home (photography, editing, managing my shop)…

A Penelope Reveal Party
Javier and I were not planning on doing anything special for the sex “reveal” of our kiddo. We didn’t feel much like planning a big to-do, and frankly we didn’t care much which of those parts our baby had as long as that heartbeat was strong and steady (among other health factors). We were able…

Louisville St. Patrick’s Parade
Back in March 2008 when Javier and I had only been dating about a month we took a trip from Nashville to Louisville so he could meet my high school friends at the St. Patty’s Parade. Back then the parade was an excuse to go bar hopping on Bardstown Road during the day dressed in weird…

Friendsgiving 2016
It may still feel like summer down south (it was 80 degrees in Louisville on Friday – but no, there’s no such thing as climate change…[eyeroll that shook the earth]) but late November is here and it’s time to stuff our faces in the name of giving thanks! Humming House is en route home after…

Farewell 2012!
We’re only a few days into the new year and we already have a ton of updates, including a trip to Chicago, to post on here but first we need to bid an overdue and very fond farewell to 2012! Javi and I had a pretty spectacular 2012, so we figured we should give the year its…

Originally posted on The Daily Post: Every day, 19 WordPressers are featured on the Freshly Pressed section of WordPress.com. And every day, many more wonder, “What do I have to do to get Freshly Pressed?” Well, it’s time to reveal what the folks who push the launch button are thinking. Each week, a member of…

Follow us on Twitter!!
A couple of days ago we realized that we never mentioned anything about our twitter account that we started a few months ago…we’re obviously on top of things. We started @LosRodriguez_ as (yet) another way to share what we are doing – mostly random things, quick pictures or necessarily unnecessary comments…come on people its twitter!…
