You guys! Last weekend we went on a biz trip to Palm Springs. I know… how did we ever get so lucky (spoiled)? Definitely felt like more of a mini vacation than work. We had such a fun (and delicious! and sunny!) time. We were there teaching a scrapbooking class for Canon, which was a blast. All the students were so sweet! Plus we got to hang out with our Canon contact, Stephanie, who showed us the new Canon app that lets you print your cell phone photos from almost ANYWHERE using the cloud! Jeremy got a shot of me using it in the video. It was pretty cool to come home to Missouri and find our Palm Springs photos printed out on the printer. 🙂 Anyway, this was definitely one of my favorite business trips ever. We visited all our favorite foodie spots, enjoyed some poolside time and got to ride bikes around the beautiful mid-century neighborhoods. We came home incredibly inspired!
I hope you enjoy the video Jeremy made of our trip!
ps. If you're curious about a list of Palm Springs spots we love we've shared them here!

Such a lovely video, I love the lettering bit at the beginning!
Love this both the pics and video! I totally went to Cheeky’s thanks to your post. Love it there. Palm Springs is one of my favorite escapes. Just went back for my bday.
Love your striped dress! Who makes it?!
Fun video! 🙂
Hi sisters! it’s really nice video. I love the music a lot. I follow you since 3 or 4 years and it’s amazing what is happening to you now. I mean, the conférences for canon, trips…good for you! congratulations!!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again … You guys are amazing. What an excellent team you all make together. The video and the photos are fantastic!

Oh my! It was so wonderful watching this video and it brought back so many memories from my husband and I’s honeymoon/our friends wedding there two weeks ago!!
We stayed at The Alcazar which was attached to Cheekys! We loved the food and they actually did all the food for our friends wedding too 🙂
Take me back already!! Glad you ladies had SO much fun!!

looks like a fun getaway! the video really captures the essence of palm springs, too!
Seeing these pics makes me miss living in the desert! Palm Springs was my home for a couple years almost 10 years ago…it’s changed so much! Now I want to go back and see all these fun places you recommended! One thing I know hasn’t changed is Las Casuelas in downtown PS…it’s so yummy and the atmosphere makes for a fun night! I miss their chicken cilantro salad! YUMMM! Sherman’s Deli is also so good, locally owned and always good, especially for breakfast! Thanks for sharing such great pics! Now I’m hungry… 🙁
Must have been a wonderful trip and you look so super cool in your dungarees! I have to admit much better than I in my dungarees 🙂

Jeremy is so talented!!! I’ve been patiently waiting for this video ever since he instagrammed him working on it 🙂 more videos please!
Love it. His videos get better each time. 🙂

Have you guys ever tried using posse.com – its a great way of collecting all your favourite places in a town in one spot – you collect “streets” filled with your favourite things, then you can look up other peoples streets to get recommendations of where is a cool restaurant / shop / activity etc in other towns (or your own town) – great if you want to find a good cocktail nearby or if you want to locate somewhere kid-friendly etc
I would love to hear your and Jeremy’s story!
How come you guys never wear helmets when you’re riding bikes? I live in Portland, OR where we have tons of cyclists and it freaks me out to see people not wearing them when I know what one crazy car or bad turn can do to you!
Looks like an amazing trip!

Nice video and great shots! Is that a bloody mary in that “shoe” glass? 🙂 Looks delish – cannot wait to get to Palm Springs one day soon.
Really soo nice video and you look always great. Nice trip and pics. Have a great weekend.

Whoa – did I see Emma drinking our Jamaican famous Red Stripe beer? :-)) Good for you Emma!
Hi, Elsie! Lovely video and photos! Umm…this has nothing to do with the post but I was hoping you read this comment. I was wondering if the Mr. + Mrs. outfit posts can come back. At least just one more time. Tremma version. Please?
Thank you so much for making beautiful and inspiring videos like the one in this post. It really helps someone like me who’s in an office for what feels like 95% of my life to remember the sunshiny days and aspire after them for the future.
Lovely video! Palm Springs is one of my favorite places! I think it’s such a vintage/dreamy/perfect place!
I loveeeeee the music!! (and the video and your blog).

who is this song by? I love it!
Your video vacation journals have inspired me so much that I am attempting to capture video on my vacay now;) From NYC to Dallas, Arkansas to San Diego and back out to my home of HI, I hope it makes for a great video! Where do you get your music so that it doesn’t infringe on copyright laws?
This video was the best yet. Made me feel really happy for you all. Plus, that bathing suit? SHAZAM!
What an adorable video! Great job Jeremy!
Love,

The music is Jeremy’s? Love it!
Uhm that printer is amazeballs! I wasn’t going to bother buying a new printer because I hardly ever print anything and when I do I use the library, but the fact that you can print pictures from your cell phone is freaking brilliant! I’m in!
That video was great! And gorgeous pictures as always. It seemed like a blast.
Oh man I love love love all of Jeremy’s videos! Including this one! Palm Springs looks really beautiful 🙂
I love this so much ❤️
I love this so much <3
what a cool video! had a really vintage home-movies nostalgic vibe to it! just thought i’d mention one thing though- you have said you got to *HANG OUR Canon contact* when of course you meant *hang with our /hang out with* . saw you had some comments lately regarding typos and spellings.. sheesh you really need to get on that ladies! Canon might not see the funny side if it in this instance. Gee I think nearly every second blog post I read here has some sort of silly mistake or typo in it.. it can get a bit annoying for a reader to notice so often, please ladies hire an editor or someone to proof read!
I loved this video! Glad you all had a good time 🙂
xoxo
Looked like you had an incredible time! There were amazing shots, and that app! I want 🙂 But seriously, that was amazing footage, and then the following photos! Gorgeous! xoxo

What a superb app can you get it on all smart phones? Thinkin of upgrading mine see and that app would be awesome for me. Looks like you had a lovely time 🙂
Great video. Can anyone tell me what the song on it is please? Thanks!
Love Jeremy’s video! What a cool idea the title using a letter for each window in the airport. Beautiful scenes great use of lighting! Please keep coming more videos!
Ah, what a wonderful place to go on a trip. The video turned out well too!
The video turned out great. I like your moving photo albums so much.
seems like you guys had loads of fun! the place looks pretty too

Ah this is rad is rad! I have such a hankering to hit up Palm Springs. And you guys got paid to go! So rad. I love it. Yay life!
That song is so catchy! What a talented dude you have!
looks gorgeous and oh so fun!
xx
Jeremy make really good videos 🙂
And Elsie and Emma look beautiful as always 😀
where can I purchase the song?! I’m in love with the music and great video btw 🙂
Such a sweet video! Does Jeremy use a smartphone to film the videos, or the a camera? Really great clips and editing, really inspiring!
You guys are so fun! Thank you for taking us along on your fun trip!
Great feel-good video! As soon as I read “Palm Springs” I knew that I was gonna see pictures from the ACE Hotel 😉 Cool place, I bet, although I only know the one in Portland.
What a lovely video! Can I ask what Jeremy & yourselves use to edit the videos with? I recently upgraded my camera & I’m trying to get my head around the video function…
I have been a huge follower of yours Elsie since your early days on flickr & its great to see you doing so well. Although I am not a dab hand at crafts, I do a bit of photography & get lots of inspiration from your site.
Keep up the amazing work ladies!!
Love the video 🙂 Glad you ladies had a fun time.

More please Jeremy! Such a beautiful job. Also this is totally random, but I’m looking for music to put to videos and photos of the day my son was born. Is this music one of jeremy’s songs? I assume some day you guys will be adding to your families and videos are such a perfect way to remember what will probably be the most important day of your life. Let me know if you have any song recommendations ORRRR you cld start working on your own music for that day and sell it on itunes!!!
Love this video so much!!
Hi girls, such a cool video 🙂 and beautiful pictures like always.
