A small splurge!

Okay, so among a few things I want to blog about this is one of them...nothing major, but definitely a plus for me.

I went to Target one day during my lunch...bound and determined to buy something...you know because it was just one of those days...and I came across this...


Eek! Don't ask me why, but I have been wanting a white purse for a while, and I found this one for a steal...$8.74, regular $34.99!!! Ack! Can you believe it?! I couldn't! So needless to say, I did not pass this up!

And I lurve it!!


Much love.

I can NOT get it together!

Okay, so ALL last week I kept forgetting to bring my camera so I could post about various things...
...well...this week ain't looking any better! Lol! I promise, one day this week, I will remember!



But, I do have a picture courtesy of my cell phone of what I did last night (get your mind outta the gutter people!)

So here...take a look-see...and be gentle..it's still growing on me..




I colored my hair...by...gasp! A BOX!



Thanks to my hubby...he was my stylist last night!

Much love.

Birthday cake time!

So last Friday, my sister in law, Veronica, asked if I would make my niece's birthday cake, since she knew that I had made a few with my friend Sierra. I was so up for the challenge, especially since Sierra had surprised me with the first few essential supplies, right before she went home to Utah!


So, this being my first time around by myself I was a bit nervous, but bound and determined to make the cake! We started by trying to make homemade fondant..no biggie, my friend and I had done it, and it was pretty easy, and it tasted much better.


Well, it didn't work so well this time. It dried out and we were unable to use it. At this point Veronica started to freak out. I assured her it would be okay. So off to the store she went to buy already made fondant.


That worked and this particular kind didn't taste all that bad! In the end...this is what we ended up with... be kind, it was my first time going solo!


Much love.

Photo booth Wednesday!

Bad day

I just have to say...I am not having that great of a day. I am off kilter. I have no clue what is going on, but there is a war raging inside of me, and I don't like it, nor can I even talk to anyone about it.

Blah! I am really just having a horrible day. And keep forgetting to bring my camera to show off the cake I made Friday night, plus all the other stuff that happened this weekend...it will probably be tomorrow before I post about all that!


Much love.

New Orleans - part 4 (the last installment!)


Okay, so here we are, finally at the last part of the trip!

After a weird night of sleep, not being interrupted by babies climbing in bed with us, Jason and I got up and headed down to the French Quarter for some of those yummy beignets at Cafe DuMonde I have heard so much about!


The food line and some of the servers taking a break...

Jay and I waiting on the scrumptious food!

Heaven!


After breakfast, we met up with our friends and took off down by the Mississippi..

Lot's of water..

A tugboat! The boys would have loved it!



The steamboat


For some reason in this picture, I look pregnant, but I can assure...I am not.

We then went to the aquarium...way cool...but I won't post a bunch of pictures of it, just a few that I think are blog worthy...

Stingrays crack me up..they look like they are smiling at you!


In the rain forest...




Can you imagine running into this guy??? Ew!
And we found Nemo! (hahahaha, snort!)


We lunched at Bubba Gumps afterwards, and it was great, the waitress, a bit annoying, but the food was awesome, as well as all the film memorabilia!

The most famous saying from the movie...
After a quick rest at the hotel, we hit up Bourbon one more time...

And we met this guy...



Yup, that's right, Santa vacays in The Big Easy, folks

We called it a night pretty early, then headed home the next morning...it was good to be back!



Much love.
