Hair Trial: Tanya's wedding :)

Well since my older sister Tanya gets married in a few weeks I have been looking at hairdo's, and trying to decide what I want in my hair. Today I went to get my hair trimmed, and when Angela(my hairdresser) asked me what I wanted her to do, straighten or curl my hair I decided that I wanted it curled for a change, since I can always straighten it at home :) So she was busy curling it... and then I kinda said to her that I was starting to want it styled the way I was thinking for my sisters wedding. Since I had already told her what I wanted, she told me that it wouldn't be a big deal and it would only take a few bobby pins and little extra time. She didn't charge me for styling it which was F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C. LOL :) so I had a trial run.. I think I sitll like it better the way I saw it online.. and I need to buy a flower for it yet.. but other than that things are just great ;) So here are some pics:

So there you go... a quick peek at the hairdo.. I think I'm going to change it and go a little closer to what I originally found online but I definitely do like it! :)

Sewing: Table cloth for large groups...

Well, since I bought my serger last week Friday I've been a busy lady LOL :) Sewing and serging lots of stuff again. My scrapbooking goal has been pushed to the back burner and I'm getting a lot of sewing done now again! That being said I have almost finished the table cloth for when I have both extra leaves in the diningroom table! It really wasn't to hard to do just needed to sit down for a bit and do it, and now that I have a serger it makes my life so much easier!! Anyway here is a picture..

I know it isn't quite done yet.. but a hem won't change the way it looks other than it will be finished off! :) Now I can't wait for the perfect opportunity to use it! LOL :D

Looking Back: July 25, 2009 - Going Home :(

Well our last day of our honeymoon, which meant going home to our little house in Sunnyside. Definitely sad that our honeymoon trip/stay in San Diego was over!! :( Anyway so travelling home!

Looking Back: July 24, 2009

Well, my second last looking back post on our Honeymoon!! Definitely has been fun posting pictures and telling our Honeymoon story from a year ago on my blog! Anyway so here is to the Friday, July 24, 2009! We decided to rent a two person Kayak and go out on the water for an hour! Definitely taught us how to work together haha, and I also learned in a big hurry that someone doesn't have a major sense of rythym which proves to make kayaking a challenge! LOL :) This person was namely my wonderful husband of a week!! haha :D Anyway here is some picture of our day...

Looking at the resort from the water front! (below)

Then in the afternoon we rented body boards and went out to the ocean for a while.

At night we went to a Luau

So that was our day on Friday.. very relaxing! :D

Once in a while..

.. when a certain person doesn't feel like cooking and the other certain person doesn't want to BBQ either then things like today's happenings happen. LOL :) At about 4:30 I said to John. "so do you want to BBQ" His answer was something along the lines of not really so I told him that if he wasn't going to cook I wasn't going to either cause I didn't feel like it! haha I know nice wife eh?!  Anyway things had been kinda hectic for both of us all day, so what did we do instead of cooking supper? Go out of course!!

We went to El Valle, one of the mexican food restaurants here in town, and I have to admit the more I go for mexican food the more I dare try different things! Tonight I tried Fahitas which were so yummy but very filling!!! Anyway here is some pictures, since I decided to take the camera along just for fun! :) John didn't want me to take pictures of him so that is why the first few turned out the way they did LOL...

Here is the "hot" Salsa and awesome chips that you get as an appitizer!

^ My food, you can see that the chicken was steaming hot, served on a hot plate!

John's food, Pollo a la creme

This last picture, well I needed to take it because I love the little pepper men on it.. it was the liner for our chip basket.. LOL :)

1 Year, 1 Month, 1 Week, 1 Day!

Ok, so apparently today we have been married for 1 Year, 1 Month, 1 Week, 1 Day.. haha :) I happened to be looking at my anniversary countdown ticker on the nest and saw that, I thought to myself well it isn't every day that you can say that you have all ones for everything! LOL :) Anyway, the honest truth is it really doesn't seem like we have been married that long at all, and on the other hand it seems like it has been way more than a year!

It is amazing how fast time goes. Last year at this time Tanya and Jacob had just started dating and now they are getting married in a few weeks! The weird thing is, because I was the first one to get married, it will be really interesting/different to go to a wedding for a sibling! I can't wait though!

Also while I'm thinking about dates.. well since it is almost August 29th I'm going to say this... it is hard to believe that two years ago from the 29th we got engaged, and started planning for our big day! eeek.. It is amazing what has all changed in our lives in the past few years!

Looking Back: July 23, 2009

Day 4 of our Honeymoon: Well what did we do that day? We went and hung out on the beach and took a surfing lesson, sadly enough we didn't pay extra to make sure that the photographer took pictures of us! ugh.. :(  so no pics of our exciting attempt to learn how to surf. I actually managed to get up once, for the rest I failed pretty miserably. The crazy thing about it all, you need to put on those crazy wet suits! haha yup can you imagine, I really wish I had taken a picture of us wearing them because it looked pretty funny! haha

Anyway so not to much to say about our day, other than the ocean water is super salty and tastes absolutely horrifically nasty! ugh ugh ugh! haha :) In the end definitely a great experience!!

So there you go.. and notice what else is new but no pics of me the camera lady ;) haha..
