About Mrs. Teacup

Can you believe it? Neither can I, it’s a miracle they made it in the mail! Here’s proof of my success, happily nestled in the Fizz & Frills marketplace bag. Yay, recycling!

Ladies, I won’t lie—the past few weeks have been incredibly hectic. It doesn’t help that I’m a terrible multi-tasker. Shedding for the wedding, invitations, and my bachelorette weekend all converged last Thursday. Although I wish it were effortless, I managed to keep my peak stress levels to a minimum. A girl can fantasize, right?

I logged some heavy DIY hours on these babies and managed to finish them at 4AM on the morning of my departure for Las Vegas after work. It will be a few days before the full reveal to allow all our guests to receive their invites. Until then, here are some sneak peeks.

I promise you won’t have to wait long to see the suite, and until then I have stories galore of my weight loss progress (already 4 lbs. in 2 weeks) and my Vegas bachelorette weekend. There’s so much good stuff to share I can hardly stand it…stay tuned!

Ohhh!! Parties, invitations and weight loss. That is what I am up to right about now!! Good job on the 4 pounds. The first few pounds are always so hard to lose. I am up to 8 pounds but I seriously want to lost at least another 10. Its so hard! Please keep us updated on how you are doing. It is so very inspiring!
