Happy Friday!

WR - Our Save the Dates were mailed this week and people!  We have already had 2 people book their hotels!!

NWR - Going to the beach for the weekend to celebrate my brother's 40th and St Patty's Day!  Should be a good time!!

WR - we ordered the rest of our decorations for the reception, now just waiting for them to get here. All we have left to do for decor is to buy vases (at walmart) when we get to playa del Carmen and maracas (sp?)! I also ordered my wedding dress hanger that says "Mrs. X" I'm so excited for it! It went out for shipping yesterday. NWR - it's been gorgeous and warm all week! FI got a job offer but arent sure if he's going to take it. He works 6 mins from home and is home by 5:30 everyday the new job he would be driving all over Ontario (company car and gas card) more money, only work 3-4 days a week. Its tough, do you continue with stability or try something new? So stressful! He has a few weeks to decide though, which is pretty much when we leave for our wedding (46 days out!)

WR - We paid off half our house account this week! Yay for the wedding half paid lol

NWR - I have been working on a big project of my own, and step one is underway! Its a pretty easy first step towards the bigger goals, but I think I was holding back on doing it for so long lol!

WR My wedding band came! We also started working on the AHR invitations. And I found out one of my besties is flying in from Austin for my shower next week! NWR It's the weekend! Always one of my NWR favorites. Tomorrow, St Paddy's Day, is mine and D's 5 yrs of meeting each other. We met on the St Paddy's Day Barfly bus and will be going on that again tomorrow night to celebrate.

WR - Finally decided on our invitations: Message in a Bottle! Our RSVPs are going to be postcards from Puerto Vallarta (not really from there, I'm gonna make them) I also got in touch with my wedding coordinator for the first time. I wasn't really in wedding mode, but I totally am now! Less than 7 months to go

NWR - Even though I didn't lose any weight this week I'm excited I'm sticking to the plan. I'm sure I'll be looking super hot by June

Everyone is busy busy!! I forgot we also pre-registered for our marriage license this week, it makes it seem more real. I also updated our planning bio and put FIs pic in his navy blues.....I cut off his head though cause I want the real pic to be what everyone sees!!

WR – I bought supplies to do a shell bouquet and mock-up of our wedding invite – working on that this weekend! My sister also told me that she will be coming to the wedding! Our wedding bands also came in, FI just needs to call so we can set up payment for them. Our wedding $$ account also hit a nice milestone, we have great momentum with saving so hope that continues!

 

NWR – My leg is finally better so running has been great this week! I cut gluten out of my diet this week and feel a million times better than I have in the past six months, so I hope it continues. Oh, and I had a great birthday!

Maddie -- Sounds like a good opportunity for FI, would he be working more hours in a day since its less days?

WR - I finished my cake topper! and my bridesmaids dresses came in and my wedding band is 1/2 way done!

NWR - I've been on track with my workouts all week.. hopefully I can keep this up ans start seeing the weight consistintely come off.

WR - I don't know if you can call it WR as I am already married but it is to me.  We were supposed to go on a cruise in January 2013 but on Wednesday H was checking out the timeshare board and found a whole bunch of available timeshares for the resort we spent the week of our wedding at in Maui.  We hadn't planned on going back to Hawaii for a couple years but we were able to trade into and could not resist 3 weeks in a 2 bedroom suite at such a nice place with such great memories.  We won't be there for our anniversary, we have to leave a few days before to be home for grandma's 100th b'day but we will celebrate it there anyways!

NWR - My beautiful granddaughter Jaiden Lola was born on Sunday unfortunately she has jaundice and is back in the hospital now though.  Here is a link to some photos if you didn't see them earlier.  http://s1137.photobucket.com/albums/n514/rmontpas/Jayden/

I hope everyone has a great St. Patty's Day weekend!

NWR- FI and I put in an application to lease an apartment in a nice building in a great neighborhood! I hope we get approved before the apartments we saw are snatched up!!

How does that work? My forehead is so oily and Ive been trying everything. I can't stand it. I'm now tanning (I know I know) once a week because that dries my skin up and clears it out.

WR - My friend is making my bridesmaids barefoot sandals, bracelets and earings !! I am so excited because everywhere I have looked is either SUPER expensive or not what I wanted. She is so awesome for doing this for me =) I am going to get totes for all of them and put the jewelery, beach towels with their names and some kind of unique gift for each one that fits their personality. WOOHOO!

NWR - St. Patty's day is tomorrow. I AM A HOLIDAY FREAK.

<div>
</div><div>I have super oily skin normally and I use about 75% Castor Oil (Cold Pressed) and 25% Jojoba Oil. I was playing around with the mixture in the beginning a little since I just started, and now that I have something that works, I am going to pre-make it and stick it in the small travel bottles from the dollar store so it will be ready to use. </div><div>
</div><div>I just pour it into my hand and massage it into my face. I do it for a few minutes to make sure it gets in there pretty well. You don't wash your face before hand or anything, just put the oil right to it. </div><div>
</div><div>After that, I take a clean wash cloth and run it under hot water (as hot as you can stand) and ring it out and place it over my face until it cools. I do this steaming process about 5 times. After the 4th time I start to gently wipe my face and the 5th time I wipe any remaining oil off. </div><div>
</div><div>I do this at night and just use water to wipe my face in the morning. My FSIL started it after I did it for one day because she was able to notice the difference. She has oily skin as well, and couldn't find jojoba oil so she uses grapeseed oil for her mix, and uses a drop or two of almond oil directly on her skin after as a moisturizer (my face doesn't get tight or anything so I do not do this). She also bought a sulfate-free facewash for the mornings (she found an all-natural Neutrogena product).</div><div>
</div><div>Sorry it is so long. Let me know if you have any questions!</div>
