Best Facial Ever!

Went to www.beysgarden.com today for a facial before the Wedding. Loved it!

Had the "Eminence" facial "The Works" w/ fruit pulp & paprika treatment. It was really interesting. Your face gets all spicy feeling & warm.
The eye treatment did wonders for under my eyes.
Everything there is all natural, no harsh products.
They even sell a line of all natural face products, including a water based nail polish. I'll have to try that next time.
Wedding, 10ndays & counting!

My Bridal Shower



My girls SH & TJ really went all out for my shower. I'll have to post more pix later of the full get up, red feather boa, fuzzy red handcuffs & all. They're crazy!

We had a great time & ate till we about burst. The chocolate cake was the best! The Wedding is only a couple weeks away now. I'm ready!

Wed shopping in Fasion district

I tell you, you can find ANYTHING in the fashion/garment district. Yesterday, CT & I went to the Men's Wearhouse to get him fitted for his tux rental. A boy's tux rental was $49. I remembered seeing boy's tuxews for sale in the F-district for about the same. So I decided to purchase so they could possibly wear to my brother T's Wedding in June.
Got a great deal on the flower girl dress, and ring bearer tux. Near 9th/LA.


Also found cute shoes to go w/ my dress. Near 9th/Maple.

F&S Fabrics

Had the morning off, so decided to check out F&S fabrics, which was featured on Project Runway-Season 1. Very nice selection. It's on Pico near Overton. The clearance F&S across street was great. Got some beatiful wool fabric for $9.99/yd. Wider than usual, so a REAL bargain.

Sunday went to see Christmas lights w/ CT & listened to Christmas music. Can't believe Christmas is already here.
Between planning the Wedding & the holidays, we've both been VERY busy.
