Good-Bye Sunshine!

The house is quickly transforming.. first a nice deep clean (compliments of J's parents) and organzing, getting rooms together, and new decor... This week J's dad was off of work and he and Marianne came over and painted our 2 "Sunshine" rooms - they were a "beautiful" yellow... granted I L.O.V.E. the color yellow, if you cant tell, but there is something about it on the walls that just didnt suit my fancy.


The dining room was painted first - a pale blue :)




Next up - Our bedroom!!! YAAAAAY! From yellow, to an amazing 'dovetail' gray. It is perfect!



Still lots to do, but its coming together quickly! I go on program tomorrow until next Thursday and there are LOTS of things that should be happening while I am gone - eeek! Cant wait!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Bob & Marianne!!!!

Mrs. Amber Massey, RD

For those of you who do not have the pleasure of knowing Mrs. Amber Massey, RD (YAY!) - she is quite the amazing lady! Not only is she a most fabulous friend, but she also has become a Registered Dietician TODAY! To celebrate her amazing feat, J&I cooked her Sugar & Soy Salmon... okay, okay MAYBE it was already on our menu for the week, but it was so fitting! It was so delicious... no pics... the salmon didnt look as pretty as it tasted - but PLEASE check out her Foodie Blog - http://chocolatebroc.blogspot.com/.. its super yummy and even healthy!



Miss Amber - we are SO SO SO proud of you!!! (&thankful for the deliciousness!) LOVES!

Miss Kayla Love's Bachelorette Weekend!

Kayla & Joe's big day is quickly approaching and I could not be any more excited for them both! This past weekend was the best celebration of all wedding festivities (well, besides the actual wedding, of course!) BACHELORETTE WEEKEND!!!

Friday Night I hosted the lingerie shower at our house. There were about 15 girls at the house, and of course we had a blast!

Some of the beautiful ladies:

All of Kayla's Goods!!!The lady of the weekend about to play a game:Saturday night we had a hotel room at Magnolia, had dinner at Sfuzzi and hit downtown with some smokin' ladies!

Love this woman!

JoJo!

Kayla breakin it down!

Aaaaaaand thats about all the pictures that are blog-appropraite ;)

Overall an amazing weekend & cant wait for the BIG day!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game!

Somehow with my crazy schedule J&I were able to to to the Rangers v Yankees game before I left for Pinehurst. Tickets compliments of one of my vendors :)

Some of my fav DFF girls were there, JBaker, Kasey Hanlon, and Bisch. It was a great game, complete with a Rangers home run... unfortunately J is a little more like my dad than I would like and made us leave in the top of the 9th to "beat the traffic"... more like we missed the thrilling end to one of the best games of the season!!!! Either way... Go Rangers!

Layla turns 3!

It's hard to believe that Layla Love is already 3!! She has finally surpassed her terrible twos and is growing to become a sweet young lady. Now, dont get me wrong, she still gets rowdy sometimes, and runs her laps around the yard, but she loves to "help" J in the yard by watering/getting blasted with the hose and her favorite "keep the glove away from Daddy", all of which amuse me.. much more than J :)

Friday was Booger's birthday, so I baked her a cake, bought some hats, and a super cool sparkler candle and we celebrated before having Supper Club at the Cabrera's.

Booger when I first got her:

I head out of town again this week - next stop: Pinehurst, North Carolina!
