Top Ten
Saturday, November 22, 2008 at 07:00PM My sister posted the Top Ten things she's been up to lately. I wanted to play too.
1. Easily, the most exciting thing was that I got to do a photo shoot for Tony Parker and Eva Longoria last weekend, for their Christmas card! It was so amazing! They were totally down to earth, friendly, and up for anything, which made for a really relaxed shoot. Only thing is because of confidentiality, I won't be showing the session, other than a shot of their hands. If you want a sneak peak, it's posted on the main site. Other than that, you'll just have to use your imagination. :)
2. For YEARS our family has survived off the take out menu. Cooking always seemed like another mountain to climb at the end of the day. But my friend DDnisia kept telling me about the 30 minute Racheal Ray meals in her magazine. I finally picked one up, and they're little mini books inside that plan your whole week out, including groceries. This has been life-changing! I'm telling you, if your family is currently eating of boxes, you have to go get the magazine! All the meals really are super easy and fast, and good. And you'll be richer, from not eating out so much.
3. Still not sleeping, still milling, and still flipping my pillow over to the "cool" side repeatedly.
4. Returned a rug to Target that had been bugging me for 2 months. I'd resigned myself to living with it. But after putting the tree up yesterday, it felt even more like an eye sore. So I took it back and traded it for a red one. And also realized that red comforts me. No matter how I try to redecorate, I have to have it in every room, somewhere.
5. My friend Dr. Feinstein has gotten me back on track with Obagi. I've been using it religiously for a couple weeks, and can already see a difference in my skin. At first, your face gets peely, and red. And I realized that's why I quit using it last time. You just have to make it past that part. And I did take a 'before' photo this time. So when I run out of product, I'll post the 'after'. This stuff is amazing. Not cheap, but amazing and well worth it.
6. Jason's birthday is on Sunday. He is the best husband in the world, but I have no idea what to get him. Any ideas?
7. Been working on lots of exciting things for 2009, like mini-sessions, and a spruced up look. AND website. Just went there today, and realized my site is muy mucho OUTDATED.
8. Hoping is stays overcast all day today.
9. Realized I'm a pretty exciting person when one of my top ten things lately is that I've been "flipping my pillow a lot".
10. Well, my last one is pretty exciting. The Flaningans are coming tomorrow! And we are counting down to porch time. Hurry up hurry up hurry up already!!

Happy Birf'day to Jason. We're so glad he
was born!
Sorry your still not able to sleep...did you take my advice and have a few cocktails before bed? LOL
I am also a huge Racheal fan. I never cooked before moving to Holland, but you HAVE to cook here. No good restaurants and no food in a box at the grocery store. She has saved me. My favorite book is her 365 No Repeats. Yummy dinners and easy to follow.
Wierd.
And, I LOVE red in every room....LOVE IT!
My best friends husband plays poker with Tony Parker's brother, but you totally trumped that. Way to go, girl!
I think they need one. Or two. Or..... more!
