Here goes nothin'

Hi ya'll! I am so excited to start blogging! I have been wanting to start one that could combine all my interests for quite some time.

Just a quick introduction about this little fam you are following!

I am married to my best friend Brandon.  We have been married for 3 1/2 years.
Brandon works as a heavy equipment mechanic and commutes to work every day an hour each way. He has a down right obsession with all New England sports teams (he is originally from there).  He served in the USMC for four years, which is why we met!


Mama to my yellow lab, Sir Brady of New England (like I said my husband is from New England). He is almost 4 and sheds like a maniac. If you have any secrets on how to control shedding, we are always open!!!!!



Mama to my crazy sweet little boy Zeke!  Zeke will be a whopping 2 in January! He has seriously brought the most joy in our lives ever.  He has the funniest little personality and is always keeping us on our toes.


I am a born and raised Southern Californian!  I work full time as a learning consultant. 


I have a deep love for the Denver Broncos (my dad is from Colorado and we stuck with his team).

I have a full on obsession with Pinterest and believe I have found a new business, a new hobby, or new ways to do things every time I peruse Pinterest.

I love hosting anything from small get togethers to big themed parties.

I pretend to be an interior decorator, but am far far far from it. On the same note, turning our house into a home with my great interior design skills is always a blast!

I love love love love Target! And I am always looking for a great deal on any store's racks!

I hope you enjoy "Following the Kirks"

Here comes....

Peter cotton tail..... Or the Easter Bunny! If you can't tell from this picture Zoie doesn't exactly love the Easter Bunny....yet! It took Zeke until he was 2 to really warm up to him, but we still have to convince him a little!  Easter is always a fun holiday for our family. My mom and dad host at their pool house and my sister, her family, and our family all get together for fun, food, water, egg hunts, egg coloring, easter baskets and so much more.  Such a great time had by all and the picture of my dad with all his grandkids is just epic!

Baby Zoie and Mama's Baby Shower

This weekend was just fabulous! My mom threw an amazing and all out baby shower for this already spoiled baby girl in my belly!  When we first thought about the theme of the shower, we thought it would only be fitting to go along with the room theme which is very light pastel colors inspired by a couple vintage Barbie pictures I found (more on that later). After much deliberation, we decided to go with a more bold vintage Barbie theme with the colors being black, pink and white with a lot of Barbie silhouettes.  After a million trips to Target, Home Goods, Ikea, Etsy, Tai Pan, Michaels, and Hobby Lobby we had a nice stock pile to start the decorating and planning.  My mom decided to pretty much redecorate her house from floor to ceiling starting with drapery.  She switched out her current drapes for some black and white striped fabric. You would not believe how great the fabric looked without even being sewed!!!! They looked like they belonged.  She also changed...

How is it even possible?

My baby girl is going to be ONE in a month!!!!!! Ahhhhh. I haven't been in as much awe as I am with the turn of 11 months. The turn calls for crazy days with  a walking baby, lots of party planning, transitions, but always a ton of fun while keeping this mama on her toes!  Yes, like I said, Zoie has officially started walking.  Baby walking is seriously so funny to watch. It's like they waddle and have no concept of bending either their knees or ankles. When she gets super excited she starts to run and it's so cute!   We are starting to transition her to whole milk. I have a feeling it will be rough since we discovered early on that she was protein and soy sensitive, but here goes nothing....  This little girl first of ours is getting into EVERYTHING and learning so much. I just love watching her grow, love on her brother and daddy, and just be so full of fun and laughter!
