Top Favs from the Oscars

So I know I am no one famous but I thought I would share my favorite dresses from the Oscars.

Cameron Diaz in Oscar de la Renta - I just LOVE the sparkle and glamour of her look.

Rachel McAdams Elie Saab - The movement of this dress was so whimsical
and the water color of the print was so pretty.

Sandra Bullock in Marchesa - I think even thought this was a bit too shimmery
I loved the bodice detailing and the delicate lace like look.


WORST DRESSED IN MY MIND!
  Jennifer Lopez in Giorgio Armani Prive - From where I sat on my comfy couch this dress looked like it was constructed out of bubble wrap.  It was just odd. Sorry J-Lo.

OH SO FUN!!

This weekend the weather was warmer than expected and sunny most of the time! Which was SO nice!
I finally finished the zoo bags for the kids ( my niece and nephew). 
Rick hates the puff paint idea but the bags were Rebecca's idea and I think it makes them more fun!


I also had a wonderfully successful fitting with an adorable little girl. 
Here is the rough draft on the flower girl dress.
It will be SO much better once it is in the correct fabric. 


To end the weekend off we went out for Mexican in Chan.. The little town we live in.
It was the BEST! I never thought anything good could come from Chan!!
My favorite part was the live mariachi band playing.. They were AMAZING!


Oh and here is the beautiful tulip that is blooming in our kitchen! 
I really want SPRING!!!

Hoping for a SUNNY Weekend

I am counting down the minutes until I leave work for the weekend.  I am very excited!!  We have dinner plans with Sigrid and Greg tonight to Kick start things. She said she would be serving Asian Infusion. 

Saturday morning I will be waking earlier than I would like to so I can fit the flower girl dress I am making for my Friend Kelly. I am excited to see how it fits her and to start making the real thing. Promise to post some cute pictures.

Rick is bottleing his first batch of homemade beer. He is VERY excited.  I am going to give him the house and do brunch with Nicole and then purchase fabric for the flower girl dress. Busy weekend. Maybe I will have time to clean my kitchen floors later on Saturday. 


Hope you all have a great weekend!
I am signing off with this amazing photo of Bimbi Resort wishing I was there!!

Winter Olympics


I have been really into the Olympics as of late. 
I should be in bed earlier but I just stay up and keep watching.  
I can't say that I have a favorite sport because I am just amazed 
by every one and the talents they all have.  
How fast they allow them selves to fly and jump and play.  
It is so crazy!  
Some of my favorites have been watching USA's own Lindsey Vonn, Shaun White, and Scott Lago.  
Have you been watching? what is your favorite winter sport...
