Pamela - drama with sus or with the germans? Lol... do tell! Jane, that sucks about your health insurance.... Dragnit, have to go... will be back

where can i sign up for a quickie lipo?? My dress is still just a tad snug. No one can tell but me but I want to be comfortable... Glad all the violets are feeling better. What was wrong yesterday pam? michelle - bad bad girl judy - SNOW?? did you say SNOW??? laura - have tons of fun this weekend! i have my hair/makeup trial on friday and i'm nervous/excited... My hair, as you know, is kinda on the wild side... So I'm always a little leery to have someone who doesn't know mess with it. Ah well, we will see how it turns out... OH and Juan bought me a Kindle! I'm so excited. I gotta load a couple of books on there for the honeymoon... Any recs of AWESOME books that you've read lately? Nothing too heavy! I'll be reading these pool/beach side...

Thanks ladies! It's only a sneak peek because she is editing them and it will take her two weeks. We took them yesterday at the gardens around our zoo/museum district in Houston. It was a gorgeous day and based on the sneak I think the pictures will turn out great. We are turning the pics into a sign in book for the wedding... Easter was nice for us. We got up, I made us breakfast and then we went to mass. Then afterwards we came back home and got ready for our photo-shoot. We were there for about 3 hours. Then went over to my mom's house for some fajitas. Pretty low key. My mom and sisters were busy getting the house ready for next weeks party. The pool had to be cleaned and the outdoor kitchen scrubbed because there has been so much pollen lately. Today I am lounging in bed for just a few more minutes then headed over to my mom's so I can finish addressing the wedding invites. They HAVE to go out today so that I can start getting the RSVP's back soon. Everyone have a great monday!

sneak peek from my engagement shoot today!!

Janie, I'm wearing blue today! Michelle! I'm so happy you decided to go. You will have so much fun and you won't regret doing this for yourself. Pam - good luck with your house guests! I think uts a perfect time to lounge and relax. Judy - I'm sure you will sound beautiful at the good Friday service today. Have fun this weekend! Laura - share pics of carsons easter when you can! Everyone have a great easter weekend. I'm working half a day today. Have service at 3pm. Then a wedding rehearsal at 430. Then a meeting with another bride at 530. Then tomorrow I have two weddings and Sunday my engagement pics. Phew! I'm exhausted just typing it out, lol. Love y'all!

here, just a super busy day today... I had to go pick up my wedding dress, then take it the the alteration lady, who then told me I had to lose 10 lbs so that it fits right :/ soooo, I told her I was in the process. but then that means that they can't get started with the bewbage area because my bews might shrink more... so double sigh... i waited too long to bring it in, I waited to long to try to lose 10 lbs... can i lose 10 lbs in two days???? LOL michelle - what a handsome boy! i was supposed to wear my retainer forever! when i stopped wearing it my teeth shifted... your hydrangea is beautiful! those are one of my favorite flowers! I wanted lots of hydrangeas at the wedding until juan one day shared with me that he hated them, LOL. he hates poufy flowers! whaaaaa! he likes sleek ones, example, calla lilies. which i hate! LOL... but anyway, the flowers are gorgeous and i'm glad you loved them! i'm exhausted and headed to bed. waking up at 430 is killing me!

oh judy, i dont belch that much. only when i drink carbonation. and i am just in awe that you were able to resist carbonated drinks for this long... I drink so much mineral water and that is super fizzy... i just love it... i'm just addicted to bubbles, LOL

hello there! i love coming on here and seeing pictures! michelle, you look lovely. Your hair looks nice at this length! How was everyones monday? I hate mondays... Well let's see what's going on with me. I got my flower girl dresses today. They are super cute! Yesterday we went and bought all of Juan's brothers new suits for the wedding. Juan is getting his tomorrow. We decided against renting tuxes because it was the same price to buy a nice suit and gift it to them. I rented the vest/tie set for them and now they are done. One of my sisters dresses came in last week and the other ones is coming in this week. This thursday I am going to the seamstress to get my dress altered. It's too big in the bewb area... I have small bewbies... My dad is getting really excited, LOL. I can't wait for ya'll to meet him... My engagement pictures are this Sunday. Then next Friday I am doing my makeup/hair trial. Then next Saturday my sisters are throwing me my wedding shower. Then the next week after that is my bachelorette weekend! Woo hoo! Then after that it's no time before the big day is here... This week I am sending out invites! YAY! And this week I am going to start buying the liquor! YAY! LOL everything is coming together nicely... I am not stressing right now so thats good, LOL... okay, love you all. I'm falling asleep here. I have to be up at 430 in the freakin morning! love and kisses...

Oh I meant to say I've lost 2 pounds this week... how? One hour butt kicking bootcamp every single morning at 5am and a strict 1200 calorie DIET. Hello!

Ditto on not being such an enthusuastic supporter of the band. I would do sleeve in a heart beat if I had the money. For me its so hard to get "good" stuff in me. I have a hard time with fruits and veggies. Everythinh has to be drenched in sauce. And if I get even a slight unfill I can eat vast amounts of food and am starving most of the time if I try to have bandster portions....

Aww, I feel so bad for all the sick bebes. Hopefully they will be better soon... Sorry I've been MIA but its getting pretty hectic over here. I'm up at 430 for bootcamp so most days I'm snoozing around 830. I know, pathetic. I don't feel any difference yet but only one week so far. Major drama with the venue the my mother in law is building for my wedding. It might have to be outside afterall... so I've been sad and upset but what am I gonna do at this point. I just let myself be carried away with one vision and now that it might not happen its just hard. Anyway, I feel so bad about complainig about somethig so pett when so much other stuff going on. There will be lots of good food and lots of good tequila lol. Love y'all lots...

Michelle, my prayers are with you and your family. Love yoj lots

Judy I cracked up at your post! I can't imagine what your sweet husband did to deserve your wrath! Poor bob! Poor mug! Michelle, sending you skinny vibes! Your smotthie sounds delish! For today I've had a scrambled egg for breakfast, greek yogurt with granola for snack and a cup of turkey chili for lunch. Going to grab another half cup of yogurt in a bit then planning on pot roast for dinner...

Good mornijng ladies. Had a wonderful, albeit busy, weekend. Michelle, your post made me cry. When my grandmother was hooked up to a million machines for YEARS I always cried and wished for her release and always felt guilty for feeling like that. Now that I'm older I realize that that was a very mature unselfish feeling for a little girl, which I was at the time. My continued prayers with you and your family. Janey! You are doing awesome!! Keep up the great work! You deserve it plus much more... Pammy, how did you like alice in wonderland? I was gonna go see it but haven't had time. Are u all unpacked? If you are then you are superwoman! We had unpacked boxes in our garage for yaers after we moved in... Judy, I used to love fashion bug but then they closed all of them here...I'm surre your clothes will fit you before you know it... Heather, so cute about ayla! She is getting so big so fast. Both our lapband babies are! Please post more pics, I miss her sweet face! I started bootcamp this morning and I'm so sore. Its gonna kick my butt. I'm noshing on some greek yogurt with granola now. I had a scrambled egg for breakfast. I'm gonna try to do six small meals a day and see how that works for me... my hand is killing me typing on this phone... love y'all lots always... be back later

So glad it's Friday! Judy, I'm sure you sounded wonderful tonight! And I agree, when it starts being a "job" it's time to do something else... How's your DIL doing? Michelle - have a safe trip! Heather - I'm the same with chinese food buffets. I think it's the sauce too. I can eat way too much. I stay away from the rice... Jane - gah, i'm gonna have to try the apple cider vinegar. Does it sit in your pouch and burn? Pammy - hows it going in the new house? Met any neighbors yet? I'm so so tired... I've got weddings tomorrow. TWO of them. Yuck... I better go to sleep now... Everyone have a fantastic weekend. I probably won't have a chance to check back in until monday...

thanks for that tip! I had forgotten about that... My doctor had told me to do that when i was craving something but i never actually tried it... Let me know how it works!

darn it... i dont know what i hit and i made my screen shut down and therefore lost my post... i need to cut my nails soon... okay to begin again... michelle - my love is always with you. I'm so sorry your family is going through this... Will continue to keep all of you in my prayers... Today was my first day back at work. Though it was hectic I still managed pretty well. I still have vacation afterglow so nothing is fazing me right now... just going with the flow... It'll get hectic again by this weekend though. two wedding on saturday. wow. but i'm ready to take everything on... Vacation was great. Us ladies didnt do much but lay out by the pool or lay out by the beach. The guys stayed busy the whole time... Gold, football, tennis, horseback riding, kayaking... It was one thing after another.... Juan would come by my chair a few times a day and give me a kiss on his way to some other activity... That was fine by me... We got up late then played UNO till all hours. The parents usually went to bed early... But everyone was happy and relaxed the whole time... Can't wait to post pics! Who loves this daylight savings? It's 630 pm, I just got home from work and the sun is still shining bright! I'm gonna go get dinner ready and then go for a long walk with juan. We are at the 2 month mark and we got serious about our food intake and excersice now. I had salad and grilled chicken today and that's about it. I'm gonna make a chicken caldo for dinner. I joined a bootcamp! 5 days a week meeting at 515am. I've got a dress that I bought a year ago that I want to wear to my bridal shower but it's a size 16 and it's about 4 inches too small right now. I'm hoping to fit into it by april 10? I'm dreaming, LOL... But it's a good goal to try to get to... ok, off i go to get dinner on the table... everyone have a great night!

I'm home!!!! We had a great time on our trip. Can't wait to share pics with ya'll... I've gotta run to get some lunch in me but I'll be back later this afternoon... kisses...

glad to hear you made it ok. Will continue to keep you in my thoughts! suzy - i'm so happy that things are going well with Gia. I didn't start wearing makeup until I was 15 and eyeliner when I was like 20 i think... in my opinion its just that she never had rules our boundaries to tell her otherwise... Question: when you are a foster parent do you get to set your own rules as far as upbringing rules? if you don't feel like at 12 she should be wearing eyeliner then would it be ok for you to tell her that she just cant? sitting here watching the oscars. I loved cameron diaz's dress. so gorgeous. and did miley have enough cleavage? LOL...

Ah michelle, you do more before I wake up than what I do all weekend long! Hugs to you and your family today... Your post inspired me to get up and get something yummy in the crock pot for dinner tonight... Prayers going out to your MIL and FIL. Love you... Judy - we got a keurig for my mom a few christmases ago and we just love it. I love it so much that I got my boss to get one for the office at work and everyone loves it... I hope you start to feel better. I hate feeling cruddy... Janie - good job yesterday! We will have little setbacks but it takes alot of will to just stop at a little bit and not throw away the day. Sending you hugs today. Hope you have a good day off! Yesterday I did laundry off and on all day long. Then I had appointments with brides. then I went over to my mom's house so my little sister could dye my hair. My grays are getting so bad! Anyways, she didn't do such a good job, LOL. My hair is two shades now... Oh well. I'll be on the beach by thursday and will care less about my hair... We've been lazy all morning. Got up a little while ago and I'm gonna get some Breakfast ready and get something in the crockpot. Then we are going to mass and then going to go to Lowe's to get some grass seed. I'm so glad that spring is just a few days away!! Everyone have a great day today!!

Pam! we posted at the same time. Congratulations to you both and I can't wait to start making plans to come see ya'll! I'm already getting excited!

oh laura, that's so sad. praying for her... juan's aunt and uncle are both doing well. we all prayed so much that everything would go smoothly and so far it has. she's not in the clear yet. She won't be discharged until next week. But at least for now her body is doing great with her new kidney... i'm very happy to hear about jenn, judy. I really really hope the new medicine helps along with the counseling... pammy - any news on your MIL's mass? I pray that it's nothing serious. I hope you got your keys today! michelle - can't wait to see a pic of the shawl you made for your MIL... I'm sure it's gorgeous... I am so happy for your steady weight loss... You are working hard too just like judy! I continue to keep your MIL in my prayers... Suzy! Congrats on being a foster parent! I'm sure you'll do great! how was your first night with her? Janie - sucks about your car but glad that you had emergency funds set aside for it... and OH so happy about your 9 pound weight loss! You are doing awesome. Just keep doing what you're doing. It'll come off slowly but surely... ohmylordy i've been super busy... it always happens on this month though. we get swamped with calls and i'm seeing clients almost every night... We have a wedding this saturday, then one next friday, then one next saturday. I'm trying to leave everything set and ready since I'm not going to be here. this one bride who is just having her 15 min ceremony on thursday afternoon is driving me bonkers. she's already come to the house 3 times to practice walking. WTF? I'm usually there with clients and I see her driving up. Then she emails me every night wanting to ask me a million questions. HELLO. 15 min ceremony. not complicated... At the beginning she said she wanted something very simple, it was just her and her fiancee and their parents, blah blah... So I practically gave her the time for free. And i've regretted it ever since. i'm ready for thursday. i just want to get on a plane and fly far far away...

oh and one last big thing... Please please please say a prayer for Juan's aunt that is getting a kidney transplant done tomorrow. Her husband is giving her one of his kidney's. Her surgery is at 7am. her name is Maria and his name is Luciano. Please pray for both of them. thank you ladies...

oh laura, so sad. I'll keep her in my prayers. What's her first name? Janie - oh boo, what's wrong? Why the crankiness? I had a major meltdown at the pharmacy today. I get insulin and needles for my diabetic dog once a month at my neighborhood CVS. I've never ever been asked for a prescription and I've always just gone in and asked for whatever I needed. Today the sub pharmacist was a total jackass to me. He asked me what he could help me with and I said I need a box of needles for insulin and he looked at me like I was crazy. He said I needed a prescription for it. I explained to him that it was for my dog and that I didn't have a prescription. Then it occured to me to tell him to look up my record since CVS has a rewards program and they record every single purchase and while I was trying to tell me this he held his hand up to my face and told me that there was no way I was getting needles there and that I needed to leave. I couldn't believe it! For him to first of all to cut me off while I was talking to him and then to hold up his hand to my face! I was livid! He asked me to leave again and told me that he wasn't SUPPLYING me with needles. Like if I was using them for drugs or something. I about had a caniption. I went home, which is one minute away, grabbed my coco and her insulin and went back to the store. I showed him the insulin and the dog and told him that I was definetly going to put in a report for the way he spoke to me. When I spoke to the manager in charge he apologized profusely and said that the pharmacist was a sub and he came from south houston and those CVS's had different policies regarding needles. I was shaking so hard I almost dropped my dog! oh well, i'm going to bed now. night ya'll

Judy, you are doing AWESOME!!! I am just in awe of your willpower. Keep up the good work. I would try what pam says and see if that works... I stayed the same weight wise in february. Why oh why does my body like it here? I hate typing this on my phone. This sucks bigtime... Had a great, albeit busy weekend. Saturday I had appts all morning long, then we drove juans mom and grandma to the bus station. They left for mexico. Then Sunday after mass we went up to a local state park and did some hiking and had a picnic. Drove home at dusk and crashed... I didn't want to get up this morning... Carson and grady are getting so big. I can't belive its already been a year since they were born. I just love watching them grow! Can't wait to start trying... we are both so ready and talk about it all the time. We would start now but my luck would be that I get preggo on the first try and then am walking down the aisle with a belly, lol... we are waiting for the honeymoon. Will definetly need good violet vibes! Pam - I can't believe the huge success of adam lambert in such a short period of time! His concerts are selling out everywhere... glad you had a great time. I bet you'll be counting down the minutes till Friday!!! Yay yay yay, I'm so excited for you! Are you all packed? Does your house come with appliances or are you having to buy new ones? Is it gonna be weird waking up in such a big house?! Ok, my fingers are geeting crampy now... ill check back in tonight after I get home
