When my friends Jamee and Gilbert got married they had everyone at the rehearsal dinner sign a tablecloth. Then Jamee\’s grandmother embroidered each signature! Incredible! What an amazing thing to

my dreams – a theatre
For many nights now I keep having the same type of dream. I am in a theatre – a really big one like the Kodak Theatre. And there is an awards ceremony – like the Grammys or the MTV Movie Awards. I am
Harry and David pears
Chris\’ brother Ben and his family got us an awesome gift this year for Christmas – pears! We were actually thinking about sending them something similar. Chris said they got a fruit of the month club
Jessica Simpson shoes
There is something about Jessica Simpson that just annoys me. I think it was the reality show and I sure it was the editing – but she just seems like such a bimbo and I refuse to pay money to someone
Vegas Valentines Day wedding
Did you know that the most popular day to get married in Vegas is Valentine\’s Day? If I was marrying Chris again today in Vegas I would wear this gorgeous Group USA gown:
saving dry cracked hands with lined gloves
Since we were in the desert for two weeks in a one month span (CA then Vegas) my hands have been SO dry. I tried just doing lotion a lot – I mean A LOT! But it was only temporary. I then went for the
Fall 2009 fashion week
I\’m not so sure about fashion week so far – nothing is grabbing me. Except Nicole Miller – she has some great asymmetrical dresses and shirts that I love! I can\’t wait to see the rest of the week.
cropped pants and tall boots?
I saw a girl wearing cropped pants and tall boots at the mall today. It is an odd look – I\’m really not sure what to think of it. What do you think?
fun price sheet idea
I thought this would be fun for a price sheet for my weddings – $10 each! It is silkscreened onto wood.
Def Leppard – Photograph
It is funny that Chris wasn\’t into photography at all when we met. But two of his all time favorite songs reference photography! One is Paul Simon\’s Kodachrome and the other is Def Leppard\’s Photograph.
china and dinnerware
My mom has several sets of china – I\’m not sure why. But she likes all of them and when we got married I asked for one set (my favorite blue set) and she instead offered me the “fruit” set as I call
Duke
Duke is such a people dog. He loves to be around us ALL the time. If I move rooms, he follows me. He was wrapped up in a tight ball looking cute in my office today:
cake stands
I\’ve got a thing for cake stands – not really sure where it comes from. We registered for a really cute one when we got married, but since someone bought us a random ugly one we kept it instead (didn\’t
Sushi Candy
When we were in Lake Tahoe the girls had a spa morning at Squaw Valley. They had this magazine called Sunset with an ad for Safeway featuring Sushi candy. Here is the photo from the ad:

jewelry – Nakamol Chicago
I look through a lot of magazines and I love ripping out things I want and finding them in stores or online. Magazines are good at finding unique jewelry by designers I haven\’t heard of I love seeing
Understated Elegance
So I am sitting here on the couch in my PJs and watching an episode of Platinum Weddings. It seems like every time I watch this show the bride is saying “the theme of my wedding is understated elegance.”
John Wayne quote
This came to me in an email and I really liked it:
“Tomorrow is the most important thing in life; Comes in to us at midnight very clean. It\’s perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands and
my favorite hair products
I have an obsession with beauty products – makeup, hair stuff, body stuff – you name it. So I thought I would review two of my often used products.
The first one is my Kenra hair spray. I\’ve had
Plane crashes into Hudson
How can we watch football in HD and see the players’ nosehairs yet the coverage for this plane crash into the Hudson is so poor? It looks like it was shot with a camera from 1982 – you can hardly tell
