My Weekend Plans


Hello Lovelies!
This weekend I am headed off to St. Louis for a Partylite Convention. This is my first one. I just started selling it in Feb. to earn some great money and get some free stuff for our first house while my husband was out of a job. So I am interested in how it is going to go! Six of us are driving down there tomorrow, for a weekend of festivities. I am really excited to see the fall/winter decorations, as a newlywed I don't have much yet in that dept.

Hopefully we have a fun relaxing time and there is lots of cute stuff and an awesome location for the free trip this year! At least I already know I loved the two day work week!!! Wish me luck, lol.

If anyone needs to stock up on there candle supply or get some of the great clearance specials that are soon to retire, check out:

Especially the internet specials section under shop is huge discounts right now.

Oh, and also Sara is on a 15 hour plane ride from San Fran to China right now, so hopefully she doesn't kill anyone! haha

Hope you all have a great week!!!

Summer Shows

Hello everyone!

I know many times the Summer is kind of a dud in terms of shows because it is kind of an off season for some of the bigger hits, so I was wondering if there are any great shows that we are missing?

These are a few that I have been watching...not deep and complex, but I have enough serious in my life and just want to be entertained...so don't judge ;)

Pretty Little Liars

I know, I know, I am not twelve...but the preview caught my attention and I kind of want to know what is going to happen!

Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami 2

It just kills me laughing at all of the crackbaby things they do ever week, ridic!!!

Teen Mom 2

The four ladies are back from the first season with just as much drama as ever. Interested to see what is up with them since last season...there lives are just so sad :(

So fill me in on what your summer fav's are and I will have to check them out!

Hope your weeks are going well. Almost there!

Sometimes I Wish To Be a Stay at Home Mom- Well...Minus the Child and the One Income...



I was just kidding about the Stay at Home Mom thing, I know you ladies work your butts off. And that is an eventual goal of mine once we decide to have children, but sometimes it looks so nice to look at the generation of stay at home Mom's whose kids are now in college and they get to volunteer, take care of their yards, make a meal with more then one course in it regularly, actually read a book that is not for a class/work, and even go on fun little day trips together. I am sure as with anything it has its downfalls (boredom,less money etc.), but it just looks so great! Or even the ones with younger children, I know there are really long hard days of sick kids, crying, diapers, etc. But there are also some great experiences that they get to have with their kids, like trips to the zoo, playgrounds, coloring etc. When you are having one h*ll of a day at work, coloring with a cute little kid sounds pretty great! I know, I know...grass is always greener...haha...just something I have been thinking about lately. Mabye for now I just need a vacay!

Hope you are all having a great week!

ONE WEEK UNTIL I AM IN CHINA!

There is only one thing standing between me and my two week trip to China - a very long airline flight.



I am looking for some fabulous ideas of what to do/wear/ect in an airport and on the plane. It is a total of 24 hours I will be spending in airports or on the plane and I am afraid I might die of boredom. So if you have any ideas I would be forever grateful! The more unique the better.

Guilty Pleasures

These are the current shows I am obsessed with:

Last Chance Highway:

About the show:
The clock is ticking for millions of animals across the country. Shelters are over-crowded, many pet owners don't spay or neuter their animals, and there just aren't enough resources to go around. Still, thanks to some amazing people who have dedicated themselves to racing against that clock, animals are saved every day. Hundreds are rescued every week, even thousands a year, and most people don't even know it's happening.

This summer, Animal Planet will change that with Last Chance Highway, an eight-part series that focuses on the monumental mission of a dedicated handful of rescuers. The stakes are high for Shelly Bookwalter and Kyle Peterson and for the soon-to-be-euthanized dogs they are fighting to save.

Each week, they organize a band of volunteers to take part in a unique mobile adoption campaign. Shelly leads an effort to find homes for strays and unclaimed shelter dogs. And every week, Kyle and crew member, Lucas, climb aboard their big rig to transport more than 150 dogs thousands of miles to meet their new families. It's an exhausting ritual but one that finds homes for more than six thousand pets every year.

Obviously I love this show because its about saving dogs and this is pretty much my dream job!!

Big Brother

Every year I love it!!!

And then pretty much any show on BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Furry Fridays!

Meet Alessio


Name: Alessio
Age: Born May 22, 2010
Weight: 2 lbs
Favorite Things: Playing, exploring his surroundings, taking naps
Waiting for a home since July, 2010
About Alessio: Alessio's mom was rescued from a puppy mill already expecting puppies. She had 6 healthy puppies on May 23, 2010. They will be ready to go to their homes after July 18, 2010. They are all very playful, friendly and happy little guys. We estimate they will weigh between 8 - 12 pounds full grown.

Update:
I still have Dillan! We are trying to get him adopted before I leave for China so he doesn't have to keep moving! He is awesome! He spend all of his life trapped in a cage and he love's attention now. He is still shy around new people but has shown that at not even a week he has attached himself and allowed him to trust me! When he finds his forever home, they will be so lucky to have him.


Meet all of our animals:
