Looking for some entertainment?

Our wedding season is slowing down and we are catching up on all the blogging now :) We just had two more beautiful weddings in San Francisco and we’ll be posting those photos soon.

For now, I want to share with you our latest addiction, a live stream of a life of six puppies :) (These are not ours, but we can’t get enough of them anyway!)

Click here to view the puppies live! (They do SLEEP a lot, though).

Enjoy!

We had an amazing weekend with a beautiful wedding in San Jose and a fun engagement session in Palo Alto. Lots of pictures will be coming shortly! :)

For now, we want to share with you photos from Carl Warner, an amazing photographer from England:













BTW, did you notice that the landscapes in the pictures are made entirely of food? We were blown away when we first saw these. View more of this artist’s work here.

Have a great week everyone!!

We just came across this video and had to share it!

“Over 200 New Yorkers recently walked into one of the busiest train stations in the world, New York’s Grand Central Station, and at exactly 2:30 pm, all froze in place. There’s one guy in the video who froze just as he was stooping down to pick up some scattered papers. Talk about commitment!”

Take a look and see what you think. Social experiments like this are really interesting, if a bit unexpected:

Do you ever listen to an album and realize you just can’t get enough of one of the songs?

I felt this way towards a track on Coldplay’s 2005 X&Y album. The entire work is fantastic but “White Shadows” is a masterpiece.

Here’s a video set to this song:

The lyrics:

“When I was a young boy I tried to listen
And I wanna feel like that,
Little white shadows blink and miss them
Part of a system, I am

If you ever feel like something’s missing
Things you’ll never understand,
Little white shadows sparkle and glisten,
Part of a system, a plan

All this noise I’m waking up
All this space I’m taking up
All this sound is breaking up

Ooh oh ooh

Maybe you’ll get what you wanted
Maybe you’ll stumble upon it
Everything you ever wanted
In a permanent state

Maybe you’ll know when you see it
Maybe if you say it you’ll mean it
And when you find it you’ll keep it
In a permanent state, a permanent state

When I was a young boy I tried to listen,
Don’t you wanna feel like that?
You’re part of the human race
All of the stars in the outer space,
Part of a system, a plan

All this noise I’m waking up
All this space I’m taking up
I cannot hear you’re breaking up

Woaaooh

Maybe you’ll get what you wanted
Maybe you’ll stumble upon it
Everything you ever wanted
In a permanent state

Maybe you’ll know when you see it
Maybe if you say it you’ll mean it
And when you find it you’ll keep it
In a permanent state, a permanent state

Swimmin’ on a sea of faces
The tide of the human races, oh
An answer now is what I need
I see it in the new sun rising and
See it break on your horizon, oh
Come on love, stay with me”
