NWR: Twilight

Ok so I am the biggest dork and I have seen Twilight in theaters twice (I had company. . .my partner in crime in this adventure Corey). I remember seeing the previews for the movie and not thinking anything of it. I LOVE the HBO series True Blood and I figured "Oh ok I'll go see this vampire movie". I love Bill on my tv series and I looked at the poster for Twilight and I was like oh he's ok. . . WOW how time changes! So by the end of the movies I was in LOVE with Edward I mean who wouldn't be right? I felt a little odd because he plays a teenager but then again he is over 100 years old. I felt even better when I found out that the actor is really 22. I now don't feel as creepy anymore. So I kept hearing from everyone that the books were amazing and so I decided I'll give it a shot. The only author I can read and enjoy is Dan Brown so I was quite the skeptic when I picked up Twilight. Yeah after 2 days I have read more than half and I should have it done by either tonight or tomorrow night. Such a great book and I cant wait till I can dive into the next one. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book. . . its a nice break from my million and one projects :o)

Something Borrowed. . .Check!

Ok so it was love at first sight when I saw these earrings. I wanted them sooooo badly but I just couldn't justify spending over 100 bucks on them. So the girl who owns them decided to lend them to me. Here they are. . .

BM Bouquet Accessory

So I love the idea of having each BM have their initial in their bouquet but they are ssoooo expensive. . .something like 30 each. . .um with 7 BM's that was NOT in budget. So if you couldn't guess this to begin with. . .UMMMMM DIY! So I went to Michael's and hit the floor running! I found what is called "eyelet alphabet" which is little letters in script. I wanted some bling so I also found Swarovski crystals and got a special type of glue and here is what you will need in addition to the letters. . .


. . . and here is the finished products. . .

Bubbles For The Church

I have still been the busy little wedding bee working on projects here and there and I do have a new one for you! As if I have not used my wedding monogram in enough places. . . I have found yet another place :o) I have seen bubbles a million times and its always the same thing. . .wedding cake design or doves on top but you should know me better by now I want more! So I found an AMAZING deal on the knot for bubble wands (which can also be purchased at Michaels). On top there was a heart and although I got the wands to match my color it still wasn't personal enough so here is where the monogram I mentioned comes into play. . . TAGS! I took some left over paper from my invitations and table numbers and put a mat behind the monogram and then for a hole punch and went to Michaels and got a heart hole punch. . . (I know how cute and for only 5.99) to attach the ribbon onto the bubble wands. Here is the outcome. . .

**BM Dress's are in**

Ok so sorry I haven't posted in forever! Things have been really crazy around here. So the BM dresses came in last week and I LOVE THEM!!!!! I am beyond excited about how great they look. Here is a picture of my little sister and maid of honor Maria, her dress is a little different then the rest of the girls but you can get the idea. . .

I also added a BM, my FI's sister in law Corey. . .she is such a doll and I LOVE her!!! She said yes so we are working on getting her dress! YAY. . .boy is time flying by!

New Years Day

First off. . .Happy New Year everyone! I really couldn't believe it when it struck 2009 I whispered to my fiance. . . "we are getting married THIS year". He proposed on December 22, 2007 and 2009 seemed so far away and now it is almost here. I am so beyond excited not just for the party or putting on a pretty dress but I am excited that I am marrying someone that I am head over heals in love with. Like any real couple we have our ups and downs but I would rather be with him than anyone else. So New Years Day I decided to get some things done for the wedding since I didn't have work. I printed up 4 of our engagement pictures and put them into the card box which I posted previously. I LOVE that card box. . . FYI once my wedding is over chances are that will be for sale I doubt I will have use for it later. I also decided to work on my table numbers which again I posted previously. I am still working on them they are pretty time consuming but here is some of the progress that I have been making. . . .

I still cant finish until we decide on our menu but I love these :o)
