Weekend Wrap-Up

Yesterday we went and bought a new TV and DVD player. We purchased a Phillips 27" for $250.00 at Walmart. What a Good Deal, right! So we put the new TV in the living room and placed the old one in the bedroom. We defintely put the TV and DVD player to use last nite and watched some DVD's.

Today we just relaxed and ran some errands. I took my car in and went to Michaels and Scrapbook Dreams to get a few things for some cards I will be making.

Tonight I am meeting with my scrapbook friends to watch the season premier of Desperate Housewives!

Can't Wait!!!!

Much Needed Break

Well today was a much needed REST day. I've been s tired lately since I've been back at school and work is busy. So when I was waking up this morning I was so tired and exhausted I decided to not go into work and take the time to sleep. I know that it's not the smartest thing to do, but in order for me to succeed at everything I do I needed this time to rest. I literally slept all day and it was so nice to get caught up.

Part of the reason I'm so tired is I'm just non-stop at everything. I realized that I was burning myself out by trying to go to school, work, spend time with friends and family and there was no balance. So I've decided to take some time out and not make so many plans with people. I'm going to need to use my weekend to do homework and rest. I know that I have to see my friends and family and I will but I'm going to balalance it all out. I also thought being busy was fun in a way, not sure which way, but I realize it's not. I need my sanity and energy to do well. Especially that I'll be starting my new position soon at work I want to do %100 so I need my rest.

Well enough about that..on another note I'm so excited that this weekend me and Alex are FINALLY getting a TV for the bedroom! Which means we are going to be spending alot of time in the bedroom watching DVD's on the weekends! YAY! See little things like this make me happy!

Well now it's time to get ready for work and school. Until next time............

What A Happy Turn-Out

Today was my parent's 5-year wedding anniversary! I decided to get the family together for a brunch and celebrate their love. I went to Whole Foods and got some fruit, champagne and OJ for some mimosas. Then I headed to Panera Bread and got some yummy bagels.

My family loved Panera Bread and loved the entire brunch. As for gifts my parents loved the scrapbook and it just brought everyone to tears. They also loved the pictures of the kids as well.

In the end my parents thanked me and they all said I am the best daughter for giving them a brunch and celebrating their special day with the family.

I am just so blessed to have a loving and warm family. Aside from all the family drama we really know how to come together to celebrate and have a fun-filled day.

Coming to an End

Well since Alex is out bowling with some friends...he joined a league. So I had some "free" time to wrap up my parents' wedding scrapbook and I just have 2 more pages and I am done! YAY! It was alot of work and MONEY, but I've learned new techniques so when I start to work on another book. Not sure which one since I have three pending albums. I have a "friends", "family" and Chapter 2 of me and Alex. I guess I can work on all 3 at the same time as events or special moments occur.

Well gottta go now to do some homework! BOO HOO!!!!!!!

Scrapbook Fest 2006-Part 1

This past Saturday was my scrapbook party and it turned out good! I was pretty much Martha Stewart, but not as perfect as her! I made cupcakes that stood on a cupcake stand, buffalo wings, and other snacks. I also went to Michael's and made each guest a cute goody bag. It contained Halloween stickers for a card or scrapbook page, stamp and a hold puncher. They really enjoyed and appreciated it all!

I was able to work on my parents book and it's coming out so cute! Luckily my friends had a few ideas and products I was able to use to make the page stand out more. I'm so going to have to take another trip to Michael's to grab more crafty supplies!

In the end we had fun and I enjoyed myself very much!

Carmel was so nice!


Well we headed up to Carmel yesterday and had such a good time. We went to two wineries and did some wine tasting. Man after the 3rd glass I was so feeling it, but being me I ended up drinking more. We went to Heller Estates which was really cute and cozy. The staff was really nice to us. Then we went to Bernandus...now that was nice but straight up posh! If you drove a Mercedes and looked like a million dollars they were extra nice, therefore me and Alex are either so we got fair treatment. Afterwards we headed to Carmel Beach on Ocean Avenue and went to the lil shops. Had some lunch at this ice Italian resturant and then to my suprise we headed to Tiffany's and Alex bought me this cross! We just went it to "look" and I saw that necklace and I though well I'll save for it, but Alex was like we'll take it. AWW SO SWEET,RIGHT? Then, we headed to the beach and just snuggled up and watch the other beach goer's and all the cute kids. Since the sun had gone away we weren't able to see the sunset so we just headed home.

It was such a good day to spend with Alex since we don't spend too much time alone. Can't wait for the next "date".
