living lovely

my friend cheryl launched a website about a month ago offering products for kids, women and the home. it's called the lovely life. check it out if you get a chance. it's a really neat site- they give personal testimonies for every product, and send out a weekly newsletter. there is some good stuff on there!

can i also mention how lovely my life has been with my vita-mix? i mean, i'm using it 3-4 times a day. everyday.

and, while i'm on the theme of lovely, thank you so much for all of your lovely words on our special day. the consensus is correct- i am married to a very thoughtful man. and he's good not to just show it on big days. he is day in, day out considerate. i think i've mentioned it here before, but we've been together since i was 15. the time that i've been with him has now outweighed the time that i had been without him (does that make sense?). i love that...

cliff hanger

oh man- have i got a story to tell you...

but it's going to have to wait, because i don't have time to do it justice right now.  this weekend was amazing.  my husband is beyond kind and thoughtful.  hopefully tomorrow i can post in a more collected state and offer pictures.  but my mind is still a-buzz from the fun!  

i should mention that one of the gifts john gave me was a big, fat, beautiful vita-mix blender.  i've been wanting one for ages and he did it!  and he didn't just run out and put us in debt to get one.  he worked 20 hours in 2 days doing handyman work in order to pay for it.  twice.  that's sweat equity, baby.  i've been using it like crazy!  really- at least twice a day.  i love it.  i made raw almond butter with it tonight!  i'm a little excited about it!  hence the exclamation points!!!

so if you can hang in there with me just a little longer, i promise to write up one lovely post.  almost as lovely as the event.

because it was an event.  a small, sweet event.
