Think of happy thoughts!

This is what I feel like doing.....

Im at work and completly over this day already!!!! We are remodeling our offices and the fun has now migrated over to my work area. Dont get me wrong! I love me some paint fumes and the chance to re-arrange but adding all this PLUS angry homeowners coming in confused about re-newing their gate cards kinda gets my heart rate going. Doesnt sound as bad as I write it but its more frustrating than I making it out to be. ARGH.

On a positive note! I have a meeting with a client this afternoon for her July wedding! I am SUPER excited. I went to high school with Desiree and and so happy that she is getting married. :)

Speaking of weddings!!!!! My mom and I went shopping on Saturday at the Williamsburg Pottery and got EVERYTHING for the centerpieces!!! They had exactly what I had envisioned!!! The best part? Everything was on clearance!! SCORE! I cannot wait to put them together. They had a huge wall with every type of shell you can imagine. They were cheaper there than buying in bulk online PLUS I am supporting the amazing Williamsburg Pottery :) LOCAL LOVE! Check out this wall!



We also stopped by Kohls and they have the cutest line of dishes and trinkets out now that are beachy and fun! AND ON SALE! We bought some shell dishes for the M&M's we are putting on the tables. After the wedding we will use them for salad bowls or soup... look how cute they are!!


SO. Now back to work. I think I just need to talk or think about wedding stuff whenever I get stressed because I feel so much more relaxed! BRING ON THE HAMMERS GUYS!!!

Hello weekend!!

YAY WEEKEND!!!!

Im so excited about this weekend. I dont have a gig (bittersweet) so I made plans to visit with my cousin sam tonight! She is the bestest i cant wait. We used to be attached at the hip when we were kids but time goes by and we have gotten super busy..which is how it usually goes. SO anytime with her is awesome.

This is us last summer at the B-52's concert. (Love Shack BABY!!!!)

Other than that, I am doing some wedding shopping with my mom tomorrow morning! WAHOO! I know people think that wedding planning can be stressful and all that but seriously? I freaking love it. Tomorrow we will be looking for stuff for the tables and such. Im thinking the combo of cattails and starfish? Very beachy and natural. I wanna make that pop somehow with some color but i have time to figure it out....Any ideas would be awesome!!!
I was thinking something like this, with the tall vase. Instead of water and the candle, i was gonna put bouquets of cattails inside the vase so they are kind of showcased inside and not hanging out. So...yeah. its gonna be fun to play with it.

Other than that fun stuff, I hope to hang out with Gwen on Saturday night. We always get into some fun... :)

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!

Rockin' Weekend!!

I had the BEST gig this past weekend!! It was for my Alma Mater, ECPI, College of Technology. They hired me last year to DJ for their Holiday Party, so I was obviously thrilled that they hired me again! I love returning clients...can not get any better. ANYWAY. The original date for the holiday party was snowed out so the "snow date" was this past Saturday. All the faculty and admin was there to rock the house. I even brought my karaoke machine to host a on-the-cuff American Idol competition. You can never go wrong with karaoke when there are a few drinks involved :) I just had a blast.

This is my down time for DJing right now but wedding season is JUST around the corner!!! I cannot wait!!! I love DJing for weddings....you just cant replace that happy, lovey environment with anything else.

Maybe..

Maybe I love that Spring is almost here.

Maybe I hate that I cant wear fingernail polish longer than two days. It chips off without fail.

Maybe Jason and I already have our wedding planned out a year and a half before the set date. Maybe I love that just a little <3

Maybe I love our dog Mousse more than I ever thought possible. Maybe I have never even had a dog before him.

Maybe I always prepare myself for the worst. Maybe because I have experienced some pretty bad things. Maybe Im the only one to know about most of them.

Maybe I think Im growing up a little bit day by day....Maybe I am excited about the future with Jason and all that we want to experience.

Maybe I know I dont spend enough time with my family. Maybe I need to change that ASAP.

Maybe I think that men who cheat arent even men at all.

Maybe I think that you need to walk in other peoples shoes before you judge them or their actions. Maybe I am the one who is quick to judge sometimes.

Maybe I ate an entire devils food cake over the past few days. Maybe I am completly ok with that.

Maybe I think that I can get more out of my job. Maybe Im scared no one else thinks so too.

Maybe I wish that I could DJ every day.

Maybe I wish I could walk in Jasons shoes one day and he walk in mine.

Maybe I am annoyed by people who always think the world is out for them or they are always complaining. Maybe I can be one of the people sometimes.

Maybe I cant handle change as well as I think I do.

Maybe I am scared of the dark and dont tell anyone.

Maybe I hate the color yellow.

Maybe I feel better after a super long cry.

Maybe I get annoyed when people interupt me.

Maybe I think Jason is the coolest person I have ever met. Maybe I think he can do better sometimes haha!

Maybe.....I will become addicted to this blog a little bit and looking forward to venting on it.

Wedding...Set...GO!!!!



It is official! May 21st, 2011 is our wedding date!! My parents, Jason and I met with Noel at Kingsmill on Saturday. Having the date set just made me SO excited.

This is the entrance to the Marina deck



This is one of the views of the deck...to include the SWEET firepit (and our future s'mores table)

This is where the food will be set up!

Another view of the deck.
This is where the DJ will be...cant get a better view!

View of the dock. The ceremony will be on the other side of it.

Mousse had to come check everything out. Well not really. He just wanted to play in the water....and he did :)

SO thats a little sneak preview. It is going to be such a fun wedding. Jason and I are on a mission to have it all planned out as far in advance as possible so we can just relax (well as much as possible haha). Jason also told me what he has in mind for our honeymoon and I am COMPLETLY stoked for it. More details later on that though.


In other news, our townhouse is officially off the market now. It was for sale through a realtor an entire YEAR. We are going to try our luck doing the "For Sale By Owner". Fingers crossed! We are kinda stuck in this limbo between selling the townhouse and starting construction on the new house....eh. Either way. Steady as it goes :)
