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

Boiled Eggs Studios!!!!!!!
(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…

Cause they be having a sale, yo!

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.
 

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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

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.…

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…

I almost couldn’t….

Since last night, this is all I’ve been doing - staring at photos of us. I’m beyond… speechless and shutting me up good is hard to do. I love me a lot of Scott Robert but his teasers just about made me piss my pants and cry at the same time. Seriously, I cannot put in words how lucky we were to work with…

Nothing fancy schmancy but we needed table numbers for the Chinese banquet and wanted one that could give us space to write each guest’s name at each table, stood on its own, and showed the number. But I couldn’t find a simple tri-fold template online that I could use and make easily, so I created my own and it’s shared here for you all!!

I kept…

into some old projects that I want to share …

Some of you have asked about the favor tags, so here goes. I created the template in Powerpoint by creating 1.5″ circles and spacing them evenly top to bottom and left to right, so that when I printed the backside of the circle, it’d line up exactly. A good trick to know if the circles on…
