Last one in July + BAUBLE SWAP {REVEAL}

Oh my! I can't believe July has come and gone. Where are these days flying to? I wish they'd slow down a bit and let me catch up. I still have so much I want to do before the summer ends...how many days left, 60?  It's time I get started and get creative! Grrr

I want to apologize in advance if I go missing the next few days. My bestfriend's babyshower is this coming weekend, and I still have lots to do! Tomorrow night my Honey and I are going to see "The Donkey Show" (I mentioned in yesterday's post), then Thursday night we're going to watch "Total Recall", which leaves me with Friday and Saturday to finish prepping for the babyshower, get all dolled up and still squeeze in some time to give my honeybee some TLC. I promise to tell you all about my outings when I get a breather. Maybe my honey won't mind sharing a little of his time on Saturday to give you guys a sneak peek. ::wink wink::

Anywho, my 2 year Celebration Giveaway ended last night and the Winner of a $25 Shell Gas Gift Card is..... "Sarah". Congratulations!!! I've already contacted you, so if you're reading this and not yet checked your email, you must check it now!!!! I'm ready to mail your prize out to you. So hurry hurry!!!



Everyone else who entered, don't worry, I will be hosting another giveaway soon...Like right NOW! :) Hurry on over and visit my friend Alyx say hello, stay a while and enter the giveaway! 7 days left people!!!

 
Ever since Alyx's Christmas in July Swap, I kind of found myself signing up for a few more...Yikes! But I must admit, it's been so much fun putting together all the goodies and getting to know so many new bloggers. The lovely Shanna over at Because Shanna Said So hosted a Bauble Swap. What girl doesn't love a new Bauble?! I do, that's for sure! Thanks to Shanna I met Sara.







Over at her space Sara blogs about fashion, her travels, and her yummy home cooking. I have yet to attempt her StirFry it looks sooo YUMMY! Trust me, you're going to want to attempt it too. Stop by Sara's  and say hello. :)
 
These are my new Baubles :)


Thanks again Sara! I can't wait to wear them!

While I was there, I had to pick up these 2, cause I needed something to match what I'm wearing to my best friend's baby shower. (Keyword: needed)

My Honey & I went to see Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs Play on Saturday at Actor's Playhouse.
It gotta say, it was a pretty good show! I can't wait to see Cats & Cinderella!!!

Happy 2nd Blogiversary to my little space!


I can't believe it's been 2 years since I started my little space here. 
 I started this blog not knowing what blogging was about, nor what I would blog about.  
I went from my First  post to a total of 9 posts in 2010, 11 posts in 2011 to 47 posts this year! 
I would've never imagined people would actually want to read my ramblings. :)
I still remember the day I had 4 followers, I was ESTATIC and thought I was pretty COOL!
Today, I have 74 new friends!

Now that's something Celebrate!!!  

I owe it all to YOU!

To those who've been there from the very start to those who're just joining in...

Weekend Recap

This past weekend, I had an amazing trip to Disney planned. I was super excited that I was packed, car had gotten it's oil change, tires checked, got my mani/pedi done, filled up my gas tank, all I needed was to get my hair done and go. Everything is right on track!
Thursday night, I go to get my hair done, hair is looking FABULOUS by the way, and when I leave the hairdresser's house, my didn't start. 8/ say what?!
So I open the hood and check to make sure the terminals are in and tight and try and crank and nothing. So now here I am, 5 miles from my home, 10pm at night, in the muggiest yuckiest humidity, hair no longer looking fabulous, but at this point who cares about the hair. Luckily my Mommy and the old neighbor across the street who asks me to marry him every chance he gets, came to the rescue.

So anywho, I wasn't going to let that ruin my trip; I'll deal with the car issues when I return.
So the trip continued as planned. Hooray!  I made it to resort early enough to have dinner and get a good night's rest. 

Got up super early, cause I wanted to take advantage of the Extra Magic Hours, which I must've missed the fine print to where only disney resort guests are allowed to enjoy the extra magic hours.
Good thing I only had to wait out in the hot sun for 30 minutes.

I got to see Mickey!!!

Had some beer in the UK

Shaved ice with condensed milk in Japan

Finished my day in Mexico

And had 2 shots and a Margarita

 

Results: I had an amazing time, can't believe we completed the park in 8 hours only missing 3 rides due to long wait times. 75 minutes, are you serious!

& then I got sick and spent the rest of the weekend in bed.
 & this has become my new bestfriend.
Atleast I got to enjoy one day and one park.
My bed is waiting anxiously waiting for me.

You May Call Me Princess...

My 5 yr old niece Lydia LOVES to play dressup. She will change into 10 different outfits, shoes, accessories, throughout the day.  And if she knows you're expecting company, she will polish her nails, toes, put makeup on, lotion and perfume...and then will put on all her princess outfits for your guests to see.  I enjoy every second of it!

Here are pictures from this week's Fashion Show!







And here are some from the past...











I love my little rascals. Oh, and the other little girl is her baby sister Layla who is 3.
She has not yet hit the dress up stage, she'll dress up once in a while but not as often as Lydia. 

Hoping your Thursday is FABULOUS!!!
