I am still Alive!

It has been over a month since I last blogged. Shame on me! A lot has happened in the past month. I feel personally too much, but hey it's life!

Well one of the major things was my husband was involved in an accident (not his fault). He is fine...thank goodness!! Our poor truck had some major damages to it. The sad thing is we had only had it for less than 2 months then the wreck happen! My husband had to drive a little bitty car for 3 weeks that he could literally lock all the doors from where he was sitting. At least he had something to drive. We got the truck back last week and you don't know how much you miss a truck until it is gone!

Truck the day we got it!

 The accident....there are damages to the front, but mostly to the back.

Let see what else happened this month.....the BPMS150. If you are not aware of what it is. It is a 2-day bike ride from Houston to Austin. My husband had been training since January and he finally got to ride for the MS150 the weekend of April 17th. I couldn't be more than proud of him. What a great accomplishment! I had tears in my eyes when he crossed the finish line. The long months of training had paid off. He had done something great! I really admire my husband!

About to cross the finish line in Austin!

Crossing the finish line near the Texas Capitol!

Me and my hubby! I am SUPER proud in this pic!

An update on me personally...my day time job at the newspaper is keeping me pretty busy. It will start to slow down in June (thank goodness!). Earlier this month I had gone back to my modeling agency to get back into the modeling thing. Surprisingly I was told I was old, but I look the same as I did 4 years ago (I guess that is good). Still unsure if I am going to go ahead with it since we are trying to start our family. Having a family is more important to me than anything! So we will see what will happen in another month.

I will start posting things on weddings again (DIY, flowers, trends, inspirations, etc.)

Jett's Vintage Train 3rd Birthday Party!

I was really excited about planning Jett's party because we would throw the party at our new home. So many possibilities!! I always try to brainstorm ideas months prior to the party so I can slowly come up with stuff and create them. I started to think of things that Jett was really into at this part of his life. He loves planes, but we did that for his 1st birthday. He loves tractor, we did that for his 2nd party. Now at almost 3 he loved trains and Superman! So I asked Jett in November, "Jett do you want a choo-choo train party or Superman?" and Jett yells, "CHOO CHOO TRAIN!!" PERFECT!! I was now thinking of things to do and how to decorate for this party. Of course everything has to start with the invitation. I created the invitation myself. I went with a old style boarding pass.  This invitation is no longer available at my etsy shop .  However, a new & improved one I made from my youngest son's birthday (below) is available  to pe...

Confessions of a New Mommy....I am unhappy....

This blog is really not the true topic you would be reading about (DIY stuff), but I need to get this off my chest. To make me sane again as a person. I am going to lay it all out in the open, which I rarely do (I feel like Jerry in the movie "Jerry Maguire" at this point ha!). Do you want to know what it is really like to be a first time mom? The truth not the "fluff" about how it is really hard, but the most rewarding thing EVER and so on and so on (it is rewarding, but there is more too it). Keep reading! I have officially been a mother to a live male human being for 18 weeks & 4 days. In the books you read and in the clasess you are told that this thing called being a mom is HARD because you will be so tired with the feedings, putting the baby to sleep and blah blah blah......  Yes yes  yes yes....I am tired & sleepy....with my son thinking I am an "all you can eat buffet" at 2 am & 4 am. Yes yes yes yes....I am frustrated that my baby do...

DIY-Chic, but Simple Hydrangea Centerpiece

I believe the hydrangea is one of the most chic flowers. It is so pure in its' delicate form with its' full blossom. Sweet, simple and elegant. I love all the variety of colors that they come in, but my favorite is the classic white. I had always wanted hydrangeas for my centerpieces at my wedding reception. I had received quotes from florists for just 1 white jumbo hydrangea in a simple 6" glass vase for at least $40+. Yes, just for 1 stem! I thought that price was just absurd because all it was just one stem they were sticking into the vase and not a whole bushel of them. Sooooo I started to research online of brides who had DIY their centerpieces using hydrangeas and I heard from them all that it was pretty easy task. So I decided to just do 1/2 of my centerpieces with fresh white jumbo hydrangeas. Best decision I ever made! Saved me a ton of $$$. I was going to purchase my jumbo white hydrangeas originally from Sam's Club who I have heard great things about. But I ...
