Today, I'm launching a new series: GRATITUDE LIST. It was Tony's idea, and I loved it. He takes stock of things he is grateful for as soon as he wakes up and before he goes to bed, and I see the happiness, peace and fulfillment it brings him. I think this practice contributes to his open heart and ability to "live in the moment," something that I strive for. There have been countless studies demonstrating that being grateful makes you happier, and I want to make a conscious effort to really appreciate the things in my life instead of always chasing down the next thing. So, here is what I am grateful for right now...View Article

I've decided it's Honeymoon Week here on Heels in the Hills, mostly because all I can think about is our happy time in Bora Bora and I want to continue living in the past for just a few more days. I wrote yesterday about how hard we partied at the buffet and I'm not gonna lie, by the end of the trip I was only wearing one-piece swimsuits to serve as ocean-friendly Spanx, but luckily I was still able to squeeze myself into this romper a few days before we had to head home...View Article
Tony and I got back from our honeymoon late Saturday night. It was the best trip of our lives. We went to Tahiti and stayed at The St. Regis Bora Bora Resort, where we were treated like royalty. (*They know how to treat royalty, too. Jen Aniston & co. may have been staying at the Four Seasons next door while we were there, but the Princess of Qatar was staying at The St. Regis with us.) Coming off of one year, seven months and two days of wedding planning that ramped up to a feverish, dizzying speed of overwhelming joy and emotion for those last few weeks, Tony and I were exhausted. I think everyone is after a wedding. But we were so lucky that we got to take off for some R&R while my parents were still cleaning up the catering staff's cigarette butts off the beach in Tahoe (thanks again, Mom). And there is no better place in the world for rest and relaxation than Bora Bora...View Article
WE'RE MARRIED!!!!!!!!! I still can't believe it. Tony and I drove back to Los Angeles from Lake Tahoe last night, and both of us kept saying that it feels like we're playing house. We giggle every time we say "husband" or "wife." We leave for our honeymoon tonight and there is just too much to say and too many emotions to process for me to really write about the wedding yet... Plus, I still have to do laundry, pack and see if I can get my husband (HUSBAND!) to help me laser my bikini line (TMI!) So, I'm going to rip myself off and share what I wrote on my personal Facebook page yesterday, along with all of my favorite pictures from the days leading up to and following the wedding! BEST WEEK OF MY LIFE.View Article
Tony and I have been sprinting on the wedding planning hamster wheel hard as of late, and decided to take a night off to try and focus on why we wanted to get married in the first place. He treated me to a night of relaxation at Voda Spa, and I opted for the Siberian Wild Berry Scrub in hopes of getting baby butt-soft skin for the wedding. (Tony got a massage like a normal person.) My Maid of Honor Katierose turned me onto this Russian banya, and it's the only co-ed spa I've found in L.A. where we can enjoy the sauna, steam room and pool together before heading off to our respective choices of chilling out...View Article
Four years ago today, Tony took me on our first date and asked me to be his girlfriend (he moves fast). Today is my bridal shower and, two months from Monday, I'll marry him. I'm the luckiest girl in the world. In honor of our anniversary, I'm re-sharing The Dateiversary Anniversary, which I wrote last year about all the reasons why I love him...View Article
