Happy Royal Wedding Day

Oh happy day!!  5 months of anticipation and the big day is FINALLY here!

Today, has been nothing but wedding love over here.  Usually I do NOT get up early, unless I am going somewhere for vacation, however, I was able to wake up early, as did Mr. Jack, of course he didn't know what was going on, but the ever faithful dog that he is was on the couch with me.  Sweet boy.

Nevertheless....THE dress....

At first, I was a little underwhelmed.  However, after looking at it (again and again) I do think she chose the right dress for her.   Her look to me is timeless, elegant, and modern.  Can you imagine going from a Commoner to one day Queen???



Okay, I think these next few pictures are probably my favorite pictures, as I am extremely close with my sister and I can't imagine having anyone else with me on my big day. 

There is just something about a sisterly bond.

Love, love, love it.

All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.

The music, readings, family, and fashion it was all so lovely. 

Here's hoping they live happily ever after.

Have a blessed weekend

Happy Royal Wedding Week

Who knew the Royal Wedding week would be here so quickly?

But I am excited!!  Not sooo much about getting up super early on Friday morning, but with all of the t.v. shows and daily updates on the upcoming festivities...I am ready.

What do you think of picture of the purse?  Pretty cute, right?  Do I need it - absolutely not.  Want?  Heck yeah.

Have a happy Monday!

Happy (early) Earth Day and Easter to you!

I think I need to step up my game on being more "green".  Paper and bottle recycling just won't do it anymore. 

Here's some tips from Martha - 31 tips to be exact.

And one more reason why I love any and everything Disney...

besides these from the disney store

is that if you see the new movie African Cats - a portion of the movie ticket sale will go to the African Wildlife Foundation (AWF).

Read more about it here:

And lastly, I hope everyone has a very happy and blessed Easter with loved ones.

I am so very grateful.

Happy Monday!

I will be Julia Child this weekend...

Saturday is cooking class day!! 

Woo-hoo...booked two months in advance, three of us, will for five hours, as the website say's:  be cooking with authentic Italian ingredients; learning traditional Italian cooking techniques; preparing perfect pasta from scratch; making a simple sauce; sautéing veal and spinach; making a pan sauce; creating an artful salad with multiple flavor components; preparing one of the most beloved desserts of Italy.

We should do just fine as "“There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”
