Can I get a B - E - S ?! Can I get a B - E - S ?!?! What does that spell?

(Dude, it’s missing the T at the end, for B-E-S-T, because simply they just are!)
You are just about to experience just a small glimpse of why the hubby and I love this trio so very much! As part of our custom package, we were lucky to get a hosted 3 month short film glimpse into our wedding day to show family and friends. (It ends Nov. 21 but I will try to upload somewhere else so you guys can see their absolute amazing work!)

My Magic Number is 20.

20 what? 20 pounds lost, that’s what!!!
Was it easy? Oh heck naw!
That’s me back in November, when the Bay Area bees came together for a meet. Just check the facial roundness.

Gift for My Girls…
July 3rd, 2008 @ 12:25 pm by Mrs. Cherry Blossom
I was nervous about getting my girlfriends these because I wasn’t sure who might have a pair of pearl earrings or a solitaire pearl pendant in their jewelry collection already. Most of my girls didn’t. I left the decision to them about wearing it the day of either of our receptions.
As another thank you to my girls for the shower and getaway they treated me to, I treated them to manis and pedis. The dress and hair/makeup were always a given that we’d provide for our party because, after all, they were doing us the honor of being a part of our wedding. Read more…
What To Do With All That Love?
July 2nd, 2008 @ 3:30 pm by Mrs. Cherry Blossom
Since the pouring of the shower and the two amazing weddings, we’ve accumulated a massive amount of well wishes from friends and family. We haven’t had a moment of free time to go through them because our honeymoon followed right after our wedding, so it was a super sweet treat to have something to look forward to reading together when we returned.
This is only half of our pile…I still have some from our shower in another bag.
Getaway #2: The Nice
July 1st, 2008 @ 12:40 pm by Mrs. Cherry Blossom
My fabulouso BMs that threw me that spectacular shower took me on a suh-weet trip!!! They kept me so much in the dark that I didn’t know we were flying to L.A.!
Here we’re waiting for the rental car with all of our luggage. I am so proud of myself, it was the first time I had ever packed that light. So light, that inside my roll-away, there was actually a duffle bag. I didn’t know we were flying, so I tried my best to keep it really light, then ran home to pick up my roll-away for airline check-in purposes.
Getaway Part 1: The Naughty
June 30th, 2008 @ 1:40 pm by Mrs. Cherry Blossom
Vegas of course….
Here we are blasting off on a Friday afternoon flying Virgin America, where they set the mood with purple and red lights. The attendants were young and hip and wearing disco balls. It was a plane full of people headed for a weekend of debauchery. The best part of the landing was when they said “Welcome to Sin City… remember, we went to Cincinnati.” Hilarious! Read more…
The Awesome Fantabulisticness That Are My Bridesmaids
June 26th, 2008 @ 3:13 pm by Mrs. Cherry Blossom
I’ve never been more awestruck in my life. These girls are simply DIY creative geniuses. Every ounce of detail was covered and no corner was left undecorated or spruced. I learned just about a million gazillion things from my gfs through the bridal shower they threw for me, and I want to share it with you (finally!). Gotta tell you, out of 350+ pics, I’ve narrowed down just a bear-with-me-few (and very embarassing ones at that) to demonstrate how amazing this shower was, BEST EVER! Thanks to my girls, I love you gals so much! I was left in the dark to the happenings until I was brought to my destination….
It all started with this amazing invitation that guests received. It drove me nuts when people would ask if I knew anything and kept raving about the invitation they got and I didn’t get to see.

All Reasons to Celebrate Every Milestone…
June 20th, 2008 @ 5:53 pm by Mrs. Cherry Blossom
We just celebrated our one month weddedblissaversary!
The hubs and I have been really busy with work, catching up with friends, and moving between both family households, that we’re still living out of hampers surrounded by appliance boxes. I really wanted to do something special just to mark this little milestone by cooking dinner. I’ll take any reason to do a little something sweet for the hubs. So to mark our one month, I fired up the stove and fed him.
Prepping the goodness …

I’d Love Me Some Bandele Please!
June 19th, 2008 @ 9:26 am by Mrs. Cherry Blossom
It’s been an awesome week for me…. I just celebrated my birthday with the hubs and friends, and then (quite patiently) photog stalker mode came on and I discovered these awwwwwesome photos on Bandele Zuberi’s website.
Scott Robert has such a great team of photogs, that he brought two to our wedding! And I just discovered these amazing shots that Bandele posted. I shrieked with pure excitement last night and Mr. CB had to force me to sleep, literally. But first thing in the morning, I was emailing Bandele to let him know the pure joy he gave me and the lack of sleep it caused since I could only lay there smiling. It’s only some teasers but still… WOW.
I had to wait to ask permission for screen shotting his website but here’s a few he put up - what an honour it is to be showcased! WOWEE!
