Here are a few photos James took of me after a LONG hard day of shooting.. I look very Shiny.. But overall my hair and makeup was GREAT!




Tomorrow we do not have school and I am SUPER excited.. I can not wait to sleep in!! Yes, I love to sleep. After I drag my self out of bed I am going to go take pictures of Colton in the blue bonnets by my moms house. I really HOPE they turn out well.

Oh.. I guess it was two weekends ago.. James and I went to the Rockets game.. Wow.. that was a crazy day.. We ended up going on Latino night...All of the announcements were in SPANISH!!!! I do not know a LICK of Spanish or anything about basketball so...James had to tell me everything that was going on... It was really fun night!

I just realized I have not posted many of our Save the Date pictures.. We took 100 so here are some really good ones!! :)

Gym...

James and I have been going to the gym recently together. He knows so much about the gym its amazing! I have my own little personal trainer.. I'm so lucky!! Well today we did shoulder and I am so sore I can barely lift my arms to type. I am trying to tone up for the wedding and the honey moon. Tomorrow we are going to do back (work out our backs -lol) and I'm going to teach him how to swim laps correctly. Look at us go! Hope I can keep it up going back to work next week :)

I've really been busy...

Since Brad moved out I have been shopping like CRAZY! Here is the Zebra ottoman I bought.. I LOVE IT!


I am also thinking about getting wood floors... The original people we were use were very expensive..now we are thinking about using the same people James' parents used...Here is the floor I like... Bella is being modeling it for you!!




Also, I bought a new iron piece for over the fire place and found a really cute "s" I had to buy!



The house is really coming together...

I think I finished buying all the glass pieces for the candy bar..What do you think?
The piece in the back on the box is going to have to be set on that box and the box covered in fabric..but I think it is looking good! I think I may buy black fabric since most of the candy will be pink..


The last pictures is of Bella.. Today at Wal-Mart I bought her a doggy necklace...yes!! You cant see it really but its pink lace with sparkles all over it with a little flower.. She is SO cute!!!


Happy Weekend!!!

Where did Spring Break go??

I have been busy ALL week. I must say I am SO proud of myself. I have done almost everything for the wedding now. GO ME!!!


After going to Old Navy many times..I finally got all the right size flip flop for the girls reception sandals. I tried my hardest to sew on the beads but it was just to hard and when I finally figured it out they beads were falling off..so I resorted to gluing them on. ..Not my best work but if the beads stay on at least until the reception..then.. mission accomplished! Here they are:


Yes.. I made me a pair... I can wear them at the reception or on our honeymoon... I feel soooooo much better that all this stuff is done..Now its time to rest :)

SO busy!!!

I have been SO busy!! This Spring Break has been so productive and its only TUESDAY!!! :) Lets see where to start. (Brad moved out... :)

-Monday: Me, James' mom, and my mom went to the Galleria and they both bought their dresses for the wedding! YES..Both of them.. Go us!!! We also looked for my shoes for the wedding and couldn't find any... I have to get shoes with no heels... my dress is just the right length.. I bought my bra to go under my dress... I really wanted to find something that made me look like I have boobs and that was a hard find! I did find one tho.. Also, I went on line and ordered my cake toppers, BM's gifts, champagne flutes, my garder, and the unity candle!!! Also, I went to Ross to buy more canisters for the candy bar and found 2 more for 10 bucks...score.. I also found a zebra ottoman for 50 bucks.. its so cute so ...double score!!! Oh and I finally found a wedding band I like....can you belive it? I cant either... I have been to EVERY jewlery store in houston 2 or 3 times and I couldnt find one.. so here it is..

Tuesday: This monring a guy came to measure the floors... I have been wanting wood floors FOREVER...and I was bound and determined to get them with my tax money.. he came out this morning and was an hour and half late.. My poor mom cleaned my brothers bathroom and it took her an hour... it was WAY dirty... After the guy left my mom and I headed to the woodlands...We went to Sam Moon and let me just say I almost bought the store out... Here is a bit of what I bought... Over Spring Break I wanted to get as much wedding stuff done as I possiably could.. I went to Sam Moon looking for my BM's jewelery and my jewelery for the wedding and of course I bought way more then that.
Here is just some of the stuff I bought... Some of it I couldn't take a picture of :).... The blue polka dot bag is a carry on with ROLLERS I got for the honey moon.. The green polka dot bag I got to for the honey moon to take our stuff down to the beach.. WAY CUTE! I didn't know I liked polka dots so much... I bought me a necklace and some earrings.. The white shoes are my wedding shoes.. I know they are not very traditional...but... I needed them to have no heels and I thought they were cute.. They were only 20 bucks.. My mom and I looked everywhere for white flats and we could not find any!!! I bought my flower girl that pink tu tu because she LOVES to dress like a princess! And... the black purse is MINE! :)


This is my BM's necklaces ... They are REALLY hard to see but I wanted something simple...


Here are my shoes and Jewelry... Remember you cant see my shoes under my dress..

Its only Tuesday and I have done so much stuff!! GO ME!!!

Save the date!!!

If you have not heard from me or seen me this is what I have been doing......








I did not want to just send our save the date card in an envelope..but..little did I know it was going to be SO much work...Last weekend I headed over to Hobby Lobby and got 35 diffrent sheets of paper. I cut the paper to fit into the envelopes perfectly..then.. I stamped a heart stamp and taped it onto black paper and put the heart on top of the maginet.. yes, they are SUPER cute but they took me ALL weekend long to finish.. I am sure JAMES is tired of me messing with them!


Last weekend Lauren and I bought the tiar we are going to share and its VERY pretty.


Next week is Spring Break and I am planning on trying to final most of the minor details ..its getting close only 4 months!
