ketchup friday

I attended my third yoga class last night and sweat so much. I was gross wet. I then went across the parking lot to my tanning place (Gotta get some sun for our upcoming vacay!) and soon realized that tanning and then putting wet clothes back on isn't a fun idea. I'm normally not a big "sweater" when I workout but warm yoga makes me sweat buckets because it's so hot in there! I still need to post about my final Insanity results! I had a great experience with it. I'm about to start Insanity again and do it on my yoga "off" days.

Still want a dang juju hat. I ran across a good source for them I want a blue or red one! I'm looking at you, Lee. HERE. Ha! Here's a little juju eye candy with out color of the year in mind.

Here's few images from Chelsie's bridal brunch!
 Take-home honey for guests.


The menu I was excited to have served:
Stuffed french toast
Sausage, cheese, onions, bell peppers and egg cupcakes
Rosemary potatoes
Bacon
Fruit w/ a cream based sauce
Mimosa, tea and water station


And of course we had dessert:

 You may or may not have noticed that Chelsie's favorite color is purple.

angel wings & USPS appeal

Remember THESE angel wings that I painted and glazed? I finally hung them! I know. Took me long enough, huh?
This is the pink guest room. I need to style and edit this room for pictures so I'll have better images to share soon.

Did I tell you I shipped an ipad to Lee's APO for Christmas? Even shipped it November 5th to ensure it could be received beforehand due to packages getting bottle-necked during busy season. Did I tell you it was never delivered, wasn't returned and they denied my insurance claim? I'll be sure to indulge more and even share my appeal letter with you after I receive feedback from it. I was just able to submit our appeal today. This has proven to be the most ridiculous process. Even more poor has been the customer service but with the exception of a few kind individuals along the way.  A military spouse doesn't need to stress about a package not getting to her Soldier. I'm hoping USPS makes good on this. To be cont'd.

Can't get anymore typical than this. Normal night at our house. Me resting my head on Coop's booty while he sleeps and I read my House Beautiful magazines.
