Be on the look out for my next post which will be on DIY postcard Save the Dates…if my...

I met Randy Fenoli this past Saturday when Brooke said yes to the dress at Kleinfeld’s! I’d love to share some of the photographs I took but they’re all of Brooke in the dress which can’t be revealed until 11/11/11! It was such an amazing experience being able to see the store in person & recognize the consultants from TLC’s Say Yes to the Dress! Brooke’s...

I would like to take this time to vent…
Why?
I’m stressed out.
Why am I stressed out? Let’s see…
Planning our 2012 wedding. The thought of our mounting credit card debt due to paying two separate rent payments for the month of April & May. My 3rd nasal surgery scheduled for May 25th. The fact that we’re still unpacking our new place & need to clean out...

So I’ve just discovered Etsy. I’ve heard of it before but I’ve never really taken the time to browse & truly appreciate the site for what it is. I’m officially addicted & once I’m ready to take on the seller aspect you can find me at TurquoiseTide.

First off, I haven’t fallen off the face of the earth. However, I have been consumed by everything wedding related & when I’m not buried in a wedding magazine I’m making money, trying to study, or socializing. I’m sorry Tumblr. I promise to give you more of my attention once we book a venue which (fingers crossed) will be this weekend.

Can somebody please tell me how it’s already the 23rd of December?!? This month has gone by insanely fast. By tomorrow night (Christmas Eve) all of my bills need to have been paid, Kaia will have been dropped off at Hidden Acres for boarding, I’ll have miraculously found time to have mimosas with both Costa & Rachel, & purchase/exchange gifts with my Dad & Donna all while...

I finally finished reading Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows Monday morning for the 2nd time after staying up half the night unable to put the book down. As I was the first time, I was sad to finish the series. I could easily read all seven books again. I plan on seeing Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 ASAP.

This week has been nothing but a whirlwind & unfortunately running the Stow Gobbler 5K in 30˚ weather on Thanksgiving morning brought on a horrible bronchitis-esque episode which is still present. I don’t regret the run just the aftermath. Ringing in my 25th has been uneventful to say the least but I have many things to be thankful for.
PS: I just finished reading Harry Potter & the...

…so I finished reading Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix yesterday afternoon. On my way into work last night I picked up the 6th year which is Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince. I feel like the hardest book to get through in the series is the 5th year due to Dolores Umbridge. However, it was easier the 2nd time around.

Today my boyfriend turns the big 2-5! A whole 9 days older than myself which I don’t fail to mention…repeatedly. This morning I made sure to get up at 6:30 am to make him chocolate chip pancakes before he would have to leave for work. Well, it just so happens that around the time I was getting busy in the kitchen he got a call from his boss saying not to come in today. Regardless the pancakes were...

ING NYC Marathon
My best friend, Brittany Costa completed her first marathon today in 6:29:53. I am not only in awe but beyond proud. It is an amazing accomplishment that only a few can say they’ve achieved in this lifetime.

I finished reading Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for the 2nd time tonight. I bought myself a copy this past Friday. Looks like I have to buy myself Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban tomorrow. My goal is to slowly buy myself the series in hardcover instead of buying it all at once which is $ or waiting for Santa. At least this way it doesn’t empty my account all at once…in...
