Before leaving for Florida, we got Tabs a suite at Cat’s Cradle, a kitty hotel/pet boarding facility, because we didn’t want to worry about him while we were away.
Most kennel/boarding facilities (I found Cat’s Cradle on Yelp) charge between $8-$17/day and usually include meals. You get the peace of mind of knowing that someone is looking after your pet, which means not having to worry about flaky cousin Fred forgetting to refill the water bowl.
Well… at least that’s the idea. I just got a call from Cat’s Cradle. Tabs escaped! He was last seen at Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco. Can you help me find him in this picture (click for a larger version)?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. Jen’s wedding and reception went off without a hitch. There were no serious injuries on the dance floor, although I think a middle-aged groomsman might have pulled a muscle doing the worm, LOL! Here are some pics…
Shana T says
Oh Karen you look beautiful! Good choice of colors for your make up! Did you use the Chanel quad? Your skin looks just lovely.Your friend Jen is Phillipina right? I love that her husband wore the traditional shirt ( I don’t know how to spell the name of the shirt barang?? ). My best friend is Phillipina and I was her maid of honor. I flew to the Phillipines for her wedding. There were like 16 people in the bridal party. Looks like your friend was able to keep it a little smaller. She looked absolutely stunning! Great make up artist! Thanks for sharing the pics with us! I hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday in Florida. I’m glad everything went ok with El Hub’s mom!

The bride looks super pretty, I like her dress. Her bouquet is really pretty too, the colors are gorgeous!
Joods says
You look gorgeous! The makeup colors are just perfect. The bride and groom look beautiful as well. It must’ve been a beautiful ceremony.
Oh and don’t worry, I found the Tabenator. He’s “just sitting on the dock of the bay watchin’ the tide”…opps got carried away. He’s sitting on the railing waiting for someone to take his picture.
Enjoy the rest of your visit. And safe trip home.
Rachel H. says

Karen says
Hi Shana T.,
Thanks! Yup, I used the Beiges de Chanel Quad. 🙂
Wow, you’re a good friend! How did you like the Philippines? Was it hot when you were there for your friend’s wedding?
Karen says
Hi Shiny,
Thanks! 🙂 Have a fantastic week!
Karen says
Hi Joods,
Thanks! The girls were all wearing neutrals with brown liner so I decided to do a similar look with Beiges de Chanel.
And yay, you found him! He just loves to explore. 😉
Oh, and thank you for the well wishes! I’ll be here in Key West for a few days and then heading home for Thanksgiving.
I hope you have a good week!
Karen says
Hi Rachel,
Thanks! 🙂 That veil is pretty, yah? It was so long!
Karen says
Hi Tuprnut,
I will do a tutorial when I get home from Florida. I wanted to take close ups of the eyes but unfortch the day just flew by and I forgot, eek!
Have a good week!
Karen says
Hi Lilan,
LOL, I hope so, too!
Are you back in the Bay Area?
Karen says
Hi Ellery,
Good eye, homie!
And thanks… I am just happy that my mascara didn’t run! I forgot to bring my waterproof mascara, and I got a lil’ teary.
How’s the job hunt going?
Karen says
Hi Daya,
Thanks! Those shoes are by BCBGirls. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Tiffany,
Thanks! It was a really happy day. I’ve known her for over 20 years so it was pretty amazing to see her as a bride. I still remember her from middle and elementary school… awww!
Karen says
Hi Tekoa,
I know… he has a lust for adventure!
Karen says
Hi Bobbie Hudson-Penick,
Thank you! We all had a such a good time. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Karen B.,
Thanks! I am so happy for her… it turned out perfectly.
How was your weekend? Do anything fun?
Karen says
Hi Laurie,
Thank you. I loved the flowers, too. I couldn’t stop looking at the bouquets.
LOL, I thought of you this weekend… one of the bridesmaids grew up in Wisconsin. Turns out her lives near Mars’ Cheese Castle!
Karen says
Hi Audrey,
Thanks! I like ’em, too, especially for tropical weddings. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Anna,
Yup! We were in the elevator on the way down to the limo to go to the church!
Karen says
Hi Marisol,
I dunno why he does that! He does have a thing for El Hub’s stinky socks… maybe that has something to do with it!
Karen says
Hi Luv J,
Thanks, girlie!
Karen says
Hi Almira,
Thank you!
Karen says
Hi Glosslizard,
He’s such a naughty kitty!
Thanks! We had a fun time getting ready and it was a wonderful day. 🙂
Have a good week, girlie!
Karen says
Hi RetroRiotGrrrl,
Thank you! Hope you have a great week!
Karen says
Hi Kat,
Yup! The groomsmen and the guys in the brides family wore them too.
LOL… and of course, the reception had a cha-cha and a line dance. You know how it goes.
Karen says
Hi Briana,
I’ll ask her who is the designer when I talk to her next. Maybe you can bookmark it and when your time comes you’ll have it to refer to. It never hurts to be prepared. 🙂
Karen says
Hi Miss QQ,
I ended up going with Beiges de Chanel. 🙂
Yup, he’s wearing a traditional Filipino men’s shirt used for special occasions called a barong! My dad and bro also wore those at my wedding a few years back.
Karen says
Hi Rosie,
No worries! Tabs is safe and sound. 🙂
Those are BCBGirls shoes. I bought them a few years ago on a deep discount ($20). I wish I knew the name of the style so I could tell you!
Karen says
Hi Dao,
I know! He is a cat that loves to explore. 🙂
So far I’m really liking your state. I am terrified of running into a ‘gator, though, LOL!
Are things better now with your internet connection?
Lilan says
Hiya Miss Karen,
Yep, I’m finally back in the Bay and getting back into my daily groove after spending a total of 4 weeks in Orange County!
Glad to hear you had a great time at the wedding – are you staying in FL for a few more days or are you back in the Bay as well?
Lilan´s last blog post..Parlez Vous OPI? Qui, Madame!
Karen says
Hi Lilan,
Yeah, I’m here in Key West for a few more days. I hope you enjoyed your time in the OC. Will you be back for the holidays?
Jaime says
Oh – you and the bride look LOVELY! On a random note, my husband has a friend that is Phillipino (I’m sure I spelled that wrong), and he was in his wedding, and wore a shirt just like one of the groomsmen had on in your picture! Was either the bride or the groom from the Phillipines? I adored her veil, too. So beautiful! I’m glad the Beiges de Chanel quad worked so well, too – it was lovely on you! Glad the event went well – and hope your MIL is doing great. 🙂
Elle says
You look gorgeous (as does your friend)! I also don’t know why a non-Filipino guy in a barong always cracks me up, but it does. 🙂
Tiera says
Looks like Tabs found some new friends!
And you ladies look lovely! I especially love the bride’s veil!
Roxy says
LOL he’s wearing a barong! that church is really nice
