SATC?

Today was my friend Tara’s birthday party, a very chic-y SATC style party, followed by watching the premiere of the movie on the big screen.

I’d be lying to all of you if I said I was a big SATC fan – just a casual watcher. Tonight wasn’t about the movie it was about being happy. And when I think of Tara, this is exactly how I think of her – Tara is always happy.

Be happy my friends.

testing 1, 2, 3

I started playing with my new camera last weekend during Nathan’s haircut. You’ll notice a glimpse of our OMG terrific stylist, Oscar, from Wane’s Salon in Las Colinas. We heart him. Enjoy the picture of his crotch, I’m sure he would love that all over the internet.

Here’s Vivian and I playing in the studio today.

Yes, my tshirt does say “that’s how we roll”.

 

And one more for your viewing pleasure. Bonus points if you notice what is silly about this picture ….

4 glorious years

Yesterday was our 4 year wedding anniversary. I wanted to share my two favorite pictures from the day:

I also wanted to share my crazy experience during the ceremony.

Let me tell you about this picture. It was so incredibly wedding on our wedding day so Nathan was helping me hold my veil in place. His face says “here, honey, let me help you”. My face says “let go of my veil before I kill you”. There is really no logical explanation for my veil freakout. I remember thinking he’s going to wrinkle it! Let go! It’s such a silly thing to worry about during your ceremony, especially since you are already up there shaking and wondering what he thinks of your dress. I relate this story to all of my brides and I suggest – if you can see him before the ceremony  – do it! It’s so worth having that time together before hand and not worrying about your veil ;)

And last, but not least. What is a wedding without your crazy, wonderful friends?

Lynn, the guest

I did bring my little point & shoot and I am so glad I did because I completely had withdrawal symptoms at first. Later on, the camera took a nap in my purse. And that’s a good thing because I think I killed the “Cha Cha Slide” in unimaginable ways.

Here Vivian is demonstrating her amazing self-portraiture skills:

And now it’s my turn: two people. Oooo, aaaah.

Vivian, me & Heather.

Bounce housing. That’s a complete sentence.

 

My ultimate nemisis

I haven’t shared my ultimate struggle with you guys, but I think it is time. It is a battle that has been raging between Quickbooks (aka QBoE or QuickBooks of Evil) & I since the start of the year. No matter how software savvy I think I am, QBoE has kicked my finance-inputting butt over and over again. You see, QBoE does not do the two things that all software people are used to – UNDO and DELETE. Nope, you are stuck and stucker every single time you open the evilness that is QBoE.

Today I saw a glimmering light at the end of the tunnel while doing my weekly updates. QBoE patted me on the back and said “congratulations”. Which of course meant “about time you got this right”.

QBoE, I will beat you!
