tuesday {tell all}

I have an idea.... {smile}! What if every Tuesday I do a post on what's the latest and greatest... Restaurant, spa treatment, book, exercise, kids toy, style, hotel, dogs... You name it... Lets talk about it! If you have something to tell or to ask... Show or for us to try out please e-mail it to me {alexandra@rusticrooster.com} or mail it to the rooster... {930 s. coast highway 101 - encinitas, ca 92024}. I would love to see what your product or party is all about! 

Ok, so lets start with a question that I have for all of you...

My kids and I want to buy a dog. Unfortunately, I have allergies to  cats and certain dogs... So the only dog that we want and I can have is the poodle. We're looking for a toy size. Question... Does anyone know of a good poodle breeder in San Diego County?

august

Well, hello August 1st... You've started off pretty well! I got to sleep this morning till 9am. My coffee was absolutely delicious and I actually read all my magazines at the kitchen table in peace. Not going to lie... My little guy did act up a little bit at breakfast {argggg}... But, I'm working on him! Over all I'm feeling really good about the start of this month. I can choose to have a great month or a bad one. It's all a mental game {smile}. Once you accept what you want you can go forward on a positive path... I'm choosing a positive one! Plus, I just got off the phone with my cousin who is such a good guider. I swear she should start her own practice and guide people in marriage, children and in life... {Polly, I hope you're reading this}!!!!!! I decided to sit down and write everything down I need to focus on this month before the kids go back to school. One month focus only... Then next month see what I accomplished and move on! Truth... I do start lists then I either never finish them or loose them. It doesn't make me a bad person {just saying}... It just says I've got a lot on my plate. lol Cross your fingers I can do this... HEY I'm almost done with #GIRLBOSS book that I started... Now that's a good read!   

Happy August 1st to everyone!!!!! 

Smile, laugh and love more this month...

totally legit

Well, I've been a little pre-occuied with this handsome guy! Last Friday was Ryan's last day of Skateboarding Camp at the YMCA, Encinitas. He loved it! No joke everyday this kids would come home in love with skateboarding and eager to get back to camp the next day... Of course exhausted from his daily adventure. Well, on the last day of camp all the parents were invited to watch their kids show off their skills that they learned. Well, Sean and I were there prompt and ready to watch Ryan shine. Oh we were proud parents... Yes, the ones that are yelling from the sidelines... "Oh ya!"... "Way to go Ryan"... "Oh my you are awesome!!!!" Shining from ear to ear with pride that he could drop in and he's only 6.

{he's only 6}

Let me remind you... Sean and I have let our kids do any sport that they would like... If they love it go for it. Yes, sometimes my heart will skip a beat, but you know what, if it makes them happy... Go for it! Ryan was 2 when he stole a bike {yes, stole a bike} from a park and started riding  it and yes 2 1/2 when he started skateboarding with his father. How could I tell him no now... Nope! I only encourage and put a smile on my face! If he comes home with a tattoo or piercings then you will hear me scream and pass out! Sorry, don't be mad at me that I said that... 

Well, the point of this post is... Ryan fell on his wrist and broke it last Friday. Everyone kept saying OMG you must have been freaked out and your heart i'm sure stopped. Actually no... It was such a simple and small fall I didn't think anything of it... Until he wouldn't stop crying and then I felt him shaking. That's not my boy. He never really cries... So we knew something was wrong. After Sean put him in my car... We drove directly over to Scripps ER. Yup, he broke his wrist alright. It was a clean break thank God. No re-breaking and no surgery... Phewwwwww!!!!!!

{actual footage of ryan's fall}

 

 

So now Ryan is totally legit! He has a real cast and can say... Yup, i'm so cool I fell and broke a bone! Ok parents it's ok for kids to fall and break bones... They will be ok! One thing you need to remember is to encourage them to get back out in the game after an accident happens. Ryan wants to skateboard again. Yes!!!!! So if you see him... High five him and say, Rock on {wink}! I was just doing a lot of cuddling this weekend... Not blogging! If any moms with wild and tough boys have any non-water sport activities please let me know. I need help to keep him busy for 2 weeks until his waterproof cast goes on. Tell all... Help please!!!!!!

summer whites

Oh white how I love you so... People always laugh at me when I walk into the office wearing white. Hello, it's like the white slipcovered sofas and chairs... You can bleach it! So easy {wink}!  I love feeling crisp, fresh  and very clean. I bet living in a white house that same feeling would come over me. Yes, I've always wanted a white house... Ok with either seafoam or black shutters to give a little pop of color. White shells, white houses, white flowers and white dresses are a must this summer... What's your take on white? Do tell!

wake up... wake up... wake up...

OK COFFEE YOU HAD BETTER KICK IN TODAY... I NEED YOU SO BAD TO RUN THROUGH MY VEINS AND WAKE ME UP! OH my last night was sure a wild one... Wait it was actually morning time.  We have new neighbors {vacation rental} a few houses down who decided to have a party till about 2:00am, then the police department decided to look for someone with a helicopter at 4:00am. WOW, that's so fun to wake up to spotlights in your backyard... Freaky! Of course I jumped up to make sure the kids were fine and all snug in their beds! Checked every door and window 10 times to make sure they were locked and closed. Ahhhhhh Hello I thought I lived in a safe little beach town. What's going on Encinitas? The whole helicopter thing happened last Saturday during the day too... What's up Encinitas!?!?!?! If it's all the vacationers... I think it's time for you all to go home. Hey bloggers... If you live in Encinitas what happened? Please share...

wake up

east coast love {interior design}

I always love working with clients that are from the East Coast. I think I understand them... Of course as you all know I was born and raised in California, but a lot of my family either went to school back east or live there now. I worked on the Cape and secretly wanted to move to Boston. I love everything about it there... Maybe one day {wink}!

With this client I needed to add a few finishing touches to each room...  From the French market basket holding extra sofa pillows to the brass hardware on the mudroom and kitchen cabinets to the custom seat covers with blue welting to tie in the family room rolled arm sofa to hanging seafans up in a fun pattern. Now Everything starting to coming together as planned... I love this home. The feel so comfortable and fresh. Who wants to complain about that?
