GAGIN' IT UP!!

Yesterday I didnt post the blog because my good thing for the day was a surprise and I was trying to keep it a secret from my man...turns out, he had a secret of his own.  HE ASKED ME TO MARRY HIM!!!

I said yes, DUH!  We went out for drinks and got this decision on us for life.  Here it is!!
SO MUCH LOVE!!

TWO YEARZ!!

I have been lucky enough to be at the two year mark with the sweetest man I have ever met.  For our anniversary, I wanted to do something special.  From time we first started hanging out, we have both felt lucky and decided to win the lottery together, so we bought tickets religiously despite not winning. ever.  Turns out, I did win...his love.  On our first Valentines Day together, I took all of our spent lottery tickets and taught myself how to make origami hearts.  I made 254 of those little babies, and put them in an old whiskey bottle, that we had consumed together.  It was a sign of our awesome time together, and from my heart.
I decided to celebrate our two years together I would do something with those sweet hearts again, so I made two real small ones, and made him cufflinks out of them.  I didnt know if I could pull them off, but am pretty happy with how they turned out,it looks like they are set in resin.  I love this guy deep, and adore the thought of him wearing our hearts on his sleeve.  I cannot wait until we have another fancy occasion, so he can wear them....and we can get all dressed up!!  Happy two years babe, it is only the beginning!!  143porvida <3

Welcome Home Baby Claire!!

My sweet friend Rachael just had her first sweet little baby...and it's a girl!!  I get to go meet Claire today for the very first time and I am so excited!!  I wanted to get her a special gift, but money is always tight...so, I thought to myself, what is better than money?  LOVE, duh.  I just put in a little- very little- amount of effort and made her this sweet little 'girly' onesie- or at least added the cute to a 5$ one I found at target.  I also bought her some sweet baby leg warmers that go from her ankles to her cute newby diaper!  All for under 10$!!  This rocks!!  I hope to update this soon, with a pic of little Claire in the outfit, the pic I added here does not do it justice.
