we should.. go to austin!

We've been wanting to take a trip to Austin for some time now and my beautiful cousin, Bridget's wedding was the perfect excuse!

Although I've been before, Brad never has and it is one of the cities on our list of where we'd like to move. Not sure exactly when this move will occur especially now with new job opportunities here in LA - probably a few years. But that's me, I love to plan ahead!

Austin is a great city. Nice weather. Beautiful lakes. Awesome food. Friendly faces.

Biggest long island iced tea ever. I was feelin gooooood.

Walked by this cute little food truck while checking out SoCo shopping district. It is a fantastically funky section of Austin. I love all the local vendors and boutiques. It has a very free and bohemian feel to it and well it IS a little weird. I get the saying now. 

Amy's ice cream. Yes please, I'll have another scoop.

All dressed up for the wedding. Brad is so handsome!

I was really wanting to brush up on my history after visiting the capitol building.  Fascinating. 

Chandelier in the capitol building - if you look closely it spells TEXAS. Pretty awesome. 

Having a few cocktails on Lake Travis before heading back to LA.


I didn't get one good picture of the bride and groom, but let me tell you they were stunning.  We had a great time in Austin, but the best part about it was spending time with the family.

bye bye entertainment industry! hello career change!

Holy Moly!

I haven't posted since March 8th. Ahh, life has been rapidly changing - although that is no excuse for my lazy, slacker blogging behavior.

In late February, I started a new casting project as an associate on a Universal feature film that started shooting today in Boston. It is an outrageously funny script with a cast and director of truly amazing talent. I'm honored to have been able to work on this project. We closed the last actor's deal today and wrap casting tomorrow...which leads me to my big annoucement.

I will be leaving the entertainment industry and moving on from my work in casting. On Monday, I will begin as an Event Coordinator at a very respectable hospital here in Los Angeles. I've been trying to make this career change for quite some time, so needless to say getting the offer for this position was a dream come true!


Here's to new beginnings!
