99 year difference

I’m beyond excited that my husband & son are in Texas this weekend, celebrating John’s Great Grandpa’s 100th Birthday!!! What an incredible milestone. Papa’s Birthday is tomorrow, March 4th and the BIG bash with family and closer friends is today at his home! Yes, he still lives in his house in Dallas – incredible.

Even though Braxton is only 1, he’s met Papa a few times in our trips to Texas the past year. We will treasure these pictures we captured in the summer forever:

This portrait hangs on a wall in Papa’s house – what a stunning business man in his time! His life has been full of success and abundance. He’s lived an amazing life!

Happy 100th Birthday Papa!

Cheers,

Planning!

I’m about 13 months away from my big 3-0 Birthday!! My wonderful friend Twila had a 30th Birthday bash with a “Slogan Tshirt” theme. I had a shirt made that said “amazing“!! The evening was fabulous – with a band, snacks, bar, dancing and tons of fun!

I’ve been thinking a lot about having a party in celebration of this milestone also! Initially I thought I wanted a surprise Birthday! I LOVE surprises…I told my husband this,

“I’d LOVE for you to have a Surprise 30th Birthday Party for me!” I exclaimed

“It isn’t a surprise if you know about it!?” was his lame response

“Well, you have over a year to plan it – so it will be a surprise!” I replied

Then I started to think – maybe I don’t want a surprise. I’m a planner and like to be involved in the details. With Event Coordinator/Planner experience, I’ve become a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to event details! I want to be part of who is invited, etc.

So now, I’m dreaming up what an “ideal” 30th Birthday party looks like to me…

Today I got inspired by a gorgeous wedding that I came across online!! (Thanks to The Farmers Trophy Wife for including one of Bailey’s pics in her Color post). Bailey the bride, has a blog called Peppermint Bliss. There were 3 parts to her wedding and each had their own theme and were decorated extravagantly!! Clearly my wedding budget was much smaller than this gorgeous lady.

I found this cool picture collages of their wedding on Style Me Pretty. They have thousands of really neat Inspiration Boards!

Her Welcome Reception was western themed:

The Wedding had a rustic, outdoor feel:


AND my favorite the “Willa Wonka-meets-Alice in Wonderland” inspired After Party with outrageously beautiful colors!!!!

Enjoy checking out their pictures!

Back to planning my bash in my mind…What do you think I should do? Have you ever planned your own Birthday party? What theme would you go with?

Cheers,

I dare you!

Leap Year only rolls around every 4 years, so I have a challenge for you!

Write yourself a letter or make a list of things you would like to accomplish in the next 4 years. THEN when the next February 29th rolls around in 2016, you can open up the envelope and read it!!

What do you think? Are you up for it?

Don’t spend too much time thinking about this – just whip something up, stick in an envelope, seal and put away for the next 4 years.

I’m going to write a letter in the “PRESENT” tense, as if I was writing it on February 29, 2016.

Leap over your fears of “what if I don’t accomplish?“, etc and step outside your comfort zone! You’re the only one that can decide your future. You get the opportunity to design your life. Start by taking my challenge!

Our Grade 5 class did something similar in elementary school, we buried a container and each included an item. I usually refer to something like this as a time “b” but I don’t want to type that word. With any luck, if I typed the “b” word on my website, it would crash it, be attractive to spammers or something!

I’ve always wanted to put a letter in a bottle, like you see in movies, and put it in the ocean… I “may” add it to my Bucket List, but I hate to contribute to garbage already dumped into our oceans. Hmm…

Have fun! I’d love to hear what you desire your life to look like in 4 years time!

Stay Amazing,

5 Love Languages

Shaking the dust off an old post!

I wrote this blog post 3 years ago (originally posted March 16, 2009):

I was talking to a girlfriend about her Valentines and it dawned on me that we need to chat about the 5 Love Languages!  It’s a book that is absolutely amazing! If you’re a keener and can’t wait for me to discuss them all, visit your local bookstore or online used store OR even better borrow a copy from a friend to reveal your Love Language and your partners!  If you do anything, go on a date to the Book Store and do the quiz in the back of the book!!

My friend really wanted flowers for the special romantic Hallmark holiday and he made plans to take her for dinner! In his defense it wasn’t in his budget to do both, another lesson – we need to educate the men of the world that Costco, Wal Mart and other fab places sell flowers cheap -  bottom line – they are going to wilt away in time!!  OK – back to my point!

I quickly identified that her love language was Gifts – not a bad thing – that was just her desire for this occasion AND his was Quality Time or Act of Service  – kind of a combo!  I’m going to help you discover the 5 Love Languages shortly!  The key to an amazing relationship is effective communication – to discover what satisfies each other. I don’t have just 1 Love Language but a combination of 3 ;) and none were what my hubby anticipated for the quiz!!

NOW (February 2012):

In my Living an Amazing Life ezine this month (subscribe today), I recorded a vlog (video blog) talking about this book.

I also just discovered that you can do the QUIZ online!!

Enjoy discovering your love language(s).

Stay Amazing,

Terrific Tuesday

A vlog (video blog) on how I’m overcoming a task that I’ve been procrastinating on!

P.S. I’m looking a tad more put together in this video then my last one ;)

Stay Amazing,

Get into the groove…

How do you get into the zone and focus on what you’re working on??

I listen to music! When I want to focus and block out everything, I listen to songs by Balligomingo! I learned about them a couple years ago and their music really came in handy while I was writing my book. I could have them blaring and think right through the soothing, inspiring tunes.

I’d love to hear how you get into the groove…

Live Inspired,
