Watch our update on The Modern Lodge! Our Lake Arrowhead A-Frame cabin is getting transformed with the help of designer Sarah Solis. We wanted a space that felt luxurious, but comfortable, close to nature, and still modern, with little places that felt special. It’s not complete, but we’ve taken a…

Reading is one of our favorite activities in the Bellessa Family. I was raised with “Value Books” that featured exceptional people throughout history, from around the world, of different nationalities. Those books helped me at a young age appreciate people of different backgrounds and races. I want to instill those…
There are big differences between baby number one, and baby number three. In fact, Rockwell had his baby room designed and set up before he was born. Nova who is three, hasn’t really had a space of her own. We said “her room” was the guest room, but guests slept…

If you’ve never been, Vasquez Rocks is a nature area park right outside LA, in Agua Dulce. It’s easy to walk/hike and fun for the family. They also have a little nature center that my son loves to check out every time we go. The park is a popular hiking,…
I LOVE decorating for fall. Mostly because a lot of the decor can be used through three full months of the season. I typically add a few things for Halloween and change them out for Thanksgiving later. This year, I felt the importance of being #inclusive, so I created this…
