Lynn in Love - Now on Tumblr!

Hey lovely folks - I've had to step away from personal blogging for quite some time now as to focus on my photography business/blogging. However I've missed it quite a bit! I've heard that tumbler makes it easier to blog little snips at a time - so I'm going to give it a go over there for a while! Would love for you guys to join me! I'm at lynninlove.tumblr.com! See you there!

lynn in love with new little nephews!

Long time no talk, dear ones! If you want to know a few things I've been up to, head over to the photoblog at lynn in love photo!

Meanwhile, one of the exciting news I have, is that I'm going to have a new little nephew soon! We are all so excited. My lovely big sister is going to have another little boy in a short 3 months! Yesterday we went for a 3D US viewing of the little one! It's so fun to see him hanging and floating around in my sister's belly. Unfortunately, he was very sleepy and simply did not want to be disturbed. We were only able to get one good shot of his face, otherwise he was all curled up in a ball. Still it was so adorable to see him grasping his feet with his little hands, tucking himself in the little ball. Such a miracle is life! Here are some of the pictures!

It's a little hard to make out, but can you see his foot, and him holding his foot? His face? The last picture he has his foot to his face!!

Thaden love his little brother this much!!

lynn in love with birthday parties

ahh... I have to admit that I LOVE birthday parties... I love being silly and extravagant and wear whatever I want. My husband always teases that I like to drag out my birthday as long as possible :)

This year is no different, and I had such a blast! I threw an old-fashioned birthday party for my dirty 30, complete with streamers, balloons, cake, a photobooth, and a pinata! I loved seeing old and new friends come together. I got to wear a red frou-frou dress with a red tulle petticoat that I would have never been able to wear anywhere else. We ate a finger-food spread and the yummy Berry Chantilly cake from Whole Foods. We played my favorite games Taboo and Cranium and just laughed ourselves silly. Lastly we brought out the cupcake pinata. Man, that sucker was sturdy! It took alot of pounding to finally break it open. All in all, a great time, and I am so thankful to have such great friends to celebrate my birthday with!

lynn in love with birthdays

Hi darlings... remember little old me? I know I've abandoned this little blog of mine for a while... and while I wish I could come up with great excuse to make it all right, I don't have one.... except that life is going really well and that I'm really happy and busy.

....and I turned THIRTY today! Yup it's my birthday and it's a big one. Honestly, it really pains me to think that I'm this old. I was really caught with lots of anxiety the last past few weeks thinking of things I haven't yet accomplished yet after living the thirty years that God has given me. I think that I don't have a family yet, that I live in an undecorated apartment the same way I did 10 years ago, that I don't have a big name yet in either one of my jobs.

...but then I remembered, so how blessed I really am, just how much I've changed and made huge steps even in this past year. Honestly, I feel more comfortable in my own skin today than I ever have! (isn't that SO cliche?? isn't that what every celebrity says in the magazine when talking about their age? but it's true, it's true!).

and while I still says things like "when I grow up... i'll do this or that..." , I have to remember that I have grown up!

Just a few things that I'm grateful today that I'm accomplished in 30 years.

1. I found and married the love of my life. We have a wonderful marriage and I cannot even fathom how I deserve this.

2. I finished medical school and my internal medicine residency

3. I made life decisions that were hard but was based on what was most important in life, but were against the social norms and meant less income

4. I was able to find a solution to doing both medicine and starting a business that I'm passionate about.

5. I'm still very close to my family

6. I've kept up the faith

7. I've stood up for my principles

8. I have created a life for myself that is full of love and friendship

I cannot wait for the next thirty years!!

Here's a sneak peek of what I have cooking up for my dirty 30 birthday party this weekend!

lynn in love with my mama

Happy Mother's Day to the best woman I know!

You amaze me everyday.

lynn in love with gold penny

Okay!! Just one more post that's bicycle related... for now :)

But I just got these beauties in the mail and I'm in love!!


Seriously how darling are these old time Penny bicycle earrings from Polli?! Super cute jewelry store from Australia... lots of delicate earrings and necklaces to choose from. I like perfectly quirky these earrings are!

lynn in love with bikes II

Meanwhile, as I search for my perfect cruiser bike,

I found all these cute bike prints and accessories!!

IN LOVE!!

First off this adorable letterpress print found via ThatWifeBlog made by MaJoie Press!

I ended up buying this one, because it was just perfect for us! In our aqua wedding color with a tandem bike? The actual print is beautiful and I can't wait to display it with our wedding pictures.

Next up is this adorable Kate Spade Bike Picnic basket!! Seriously how adorable?? Wouldn't exactly go with my aqua bike. But I don't think I'd care if somebody gifted me with this! :)

Found via You are My Fave,

I found this cute T-shirts and Bike Totes at BMinus.etsy.com

What about these Pantone bikes? Love, but only in Canada in the W. Hemisphere.

Have y'all found any cute bike accessories??

lynn in love with bikes!

Oh, I've had bikes on the brain for a while now.

I've been obsessed with finding the perfect aqua cruiser forever... for some reason I can't seem to make a decision. Every time, I find a bike I like, I find a reason to be doubtful ("what are those funky hawaiian flower decals on the side?" ,"hmm.. i really wanted a brown leather seat")

Haha... I've taken finding "THE bike" as seriously as finding my wedding dress!

But really, ever since my husband surprised us with a tandem bike getaway on our wedding night, I've been in love with bikes since!

Here are some photographic evidence:

Our wedding night! I'm kinda in love with this picture from Heather Essian.

Yes I don't look like I know what I'm doing. Yes, I am wearing my reception dress and Valentino Heels. Yes I totally bit it 20 seconds after this picture is taken and had a huge bruise on my leg the entirety of our honeymoon!

During our trip to San Franscisco and we biked across to the GG bridge to Sausalito.

and then we rented some sweet red cruisers to bike all around South Congress in Austin

We actually have an awesome bike store in Dallas: http://fleetwoodskitkat.com/ that makes custom Villy custom bikes! Pretty awesome, you can get everything customized down to the rims of your wheels! I would have totally jumped on this option, however, they didn't have the color aqua I wanted. The closest they got is a mint color, which is pretty, but now what I want.

Actually this is the exact bike (except for the rims) that I want! I posted it when back when when I found it via Hilltop glossy

Anybody can help a girl out and help me find this bike in this awesome color??

lynn in love with photos

Hi y'all!

We had a blast in Disney World! My face got a little too much sun, but we had amazing weather, fun rides and wonderful memories with the family. If you're going to DW, April is definitely the time to visit!

I've been on the go since I've been back, with work and photoshoots and workshops.

But I finally got a new header and have been blogging over at my photo blog-site!

If you want to see what I've been up to, head over there! Lynn in Love Photo

lynn in love with march madness

I confess, I don't know much about basketball, much less college basketball... but I do really enjoy March Madness and all the friendly competition it brings. I love it when people root for something!

This year was particularly fun, as the Huz's alma mater Cornell made it into the playoffs! He was so proudthat he got us all t-shirts to wear. Although we didn't go all the way, it was fun to cheer for the Big Red as they made it to the sweet sixteen!
