My family has a cabin in these mountains, it is an amazing location. One day we plan to re-build the cabin. I like these pictures for inspiration. The first one is my favorite but I highly doubt I could get the rest of my family on board.

I love this room. The many colors are awesome. I also love this new blog I found, there are some awesome diy projects...

Update: Today I went in for my shot tutorial. My husband is away on a rotation so my wonderful friend came with me to learn how to shoot me up. The nurse was slightly disgusted to find that I do not intend to administer any of the shots myself. I remain firm in my refusal to give myself shots. Thank heavens for friends and husbands who are willing to take one for the team!

I saw an article on Yahoo! on America's best swimming holes. I swear this article was made for me, there are few things I dream about more than fresh water swimming. I love it. One of Austin's biggest draw is their abundance of fresh water swimming spaces (one included in America's best). Here are my favorites.

Redfish Lake- Idaho
This one made my list because my friend is going there next month and told me all about it. It sounds awesome.

Havasupi- Arizona
Where I come from this is the place to go. You have to backpack in but once you get down to the canyon floor the scenery is supposed to be amazing. It is also the place where my sister fell in love, kind of.

Cummins Falls-Tennessee
I have never heard of this one but just look at it. Who wouldn't want to swim here?

The Blue Hole-Texas
This one is apparently close to Austin. Perhaps another pro to add to the list.

I am getting kind of excited to see the next Twilight movie. Maybe because I get to see it in theaters with friends...


San Patrick - Piccola

Romantic, beautiful, sophisticated, discreet. A-line cap sleeve gown of lace and royal satin material (my veil is shorter). Size 10 / height 5'3", worn only once, perfect condition. Veil, shoes, bag included in the price!

San Patrick - Enlace

Perfect size 12 only altered on the height. I wore this with 3" heels. It is in excellent condition and has been professionally dry cleaned. Comes with the suit carrier. This is one of the San Patrick 2010 collection dresses.

Suzanne Neville - Beaujolais


A beautiful ivory silk dress by 2009 award winning designer Suzanne Neville, with Chantilly lace detail on the bodice, and delicate buttons at the back. This dress has an internal corset and will give you the most amazing shape. It is nipped in at the waist, skims over the hips and ends in a subtle fishtail, with a small puddle train at the back, which bustles up neatly for the evening if you prefer (as in last picture). I am 5ft 4ins and wore 3ins heels. The bust is 33cm and waist is 27cm.

bar stools


I have four bar stools that look similar to these two. I have been throwing an idea around in my head, what if I painted them blue?

The more I look into it the more I like it. I feel confident in saying my husband will likely strongly oppose the idea. Luckily I have eight different weeks where he will be on rotation, starting next week.



Maybe a gray instead of a blue?

Tulle is a important element in wedding decorations, because it is incredibly inexpensive and comes in just about every color, making it a great investment for wedding decorations. You can purchase it in bulk online or even at a local fabric or craft store. With some practice, it is easy to add small rhinestones, crystals or pearls to tulle to give it a more elegant, upscale look. A little craft glue or even a quick glue gun and you will have a tulle masterpiece made for little money and little time.

the pen


Have you ever seen one of these before? It's a shot that you administer to yourself. I will likely be giving myself five of these next month. Actually my husband will be giving them to me because there is no way I will be able to inject myself without passing out. That's how much I love needles. I think this whole infertility experience is aimed at getting me over my fear of needles, they seem to be everywhere these days.
(My sisters are likely laughing or rolling their eyes by this point. I fully acknowledge I am a baby when it comes to shots.)

Jenny Packham - Solange

view original advert on The Dressmarket
Beautiful dress worn once, low back, front split, beaded shoulder straps, please note a JP size 10 is more like a size 8. To fit 5 ft 6 in heels. Same as the dress worn by Katerina Morino in Casino Royale but in ivory.

I went home last week for a wedding. While I was there I went to a party at my Aunt's home and we made a trip down to her new craft room/fabric supply store. It is amazing, this picture doesn't do it justice. Think of the craft projects you could do here.

I saw a tour of Diane Keaton's home on Architectural Digest. I love all the details.

The painting over the fireplace is my favorite, the colors are amazing.


Mmmmm, the library. Everything you dream of and more?

It reminds of her house in Because I Said So
