Adelyn Stone Giveaway

Happy Thursday, Lovelies.

Today, I'm hosting a giveaway for Adelyn Stone.  It's one of my newest FAV Etsy stores! 

Kristan has some gorgeous handmade stuff in her shop. 
You know my love for cute headbands, so I'm sure it'll come as no surprise to find out that is what drew me to her store.


This one pictured below is the one that I sent to Mamarazzi in my Favorite Things Swap package!  Cute, right?!

You'll be able to choose from any of these fabrics...

You wanna know the coolest part...cooler than the uber cute headbands? 

She donates 60% of the proceeds off of these particular headbands to the Red Cross for Japan Disaster Relief.  I LOVE that.

Kristan, you're awesome!

You can also choose to have the flower put on a pin, instead of a headband...if perhaps you don't wear headbands.

I was UBER excited to find out that my long-time bloggy friend, Tabitha aka Fresh Mommy was the winner of my Shabby Apple Giveaway!! 

Congrats, Tabitha!  I'll be contacting you soon with the details!

Shabby Apple Giveaway

Last week, I got an email from the ladies at Shabby Apple and I was SO. EXCITED. 
I have ventured over to their site a few times...browsing, day dreaming, "window shopping".  I love their dresses.  They are so vintage, but modern...and sassy.  I have my eye on several styles.  

They are introducing a new line titled Roamin' Holiday. 

Can you guess what the inspiration for new line is?

Let me give you some hints...pasta (my favorite food group), rolling hills, vineyards, gondola rides, romance, Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo...the Sistine Chapel...

ITALY.

They asked me to write about my favorite Italian painting. I LOVE art.  I was one of the geeky people in high school that took classes like Humanities and Art Appreciation...and went to Operas and art exhibits.  So, this is right up my alley.  I also love the Renaissance...which means rebirth...it just sounds so fresh and new.  There were some beautiful pieces that came out of that period.  Michelangelo, a known sculptor, was commissioned by Pope Julius II to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. 

From that commission, came this gorgeous piece of art.  No easy feat.  It took him 4 years.  I can't imagine how difficult and consuming that must have been.  This portion of the ceiling is referred to as the Creation of Adam.  It's been used in stationary, cards, books, publications, and television shows.  It highly influences pop culture.  Aside from all of that, I just think it's beautiful. 

So, in honor of Shabby Apple's new line, Roamin' Holiday featuring Italian inspired dresses, they are allowing me to offer one of my LUCKY readers a FREE dress!! 

How exciting is that?! 

Here are the styles you'll be able to choose from...

You can also pick from the little girls dresses: Creamsicle or Pink Panther

They offer dresses in a variety of sizes, for teens, and kids.  Their website is so helpful and easy to navigate.  They have sizing charts, fit guides, and like I said before, they'll even help you find your style!  Shabby Apple also offers vintage-y accessories, jewelry, shoes, etc.  You really MUST go check out their site!

Friday Confessions

• First off, I am on TV overload!  You know how guys have their seasons...baseball, football, hockey, NASCAR, etc.  Well, THIS is my season.  I have a favorite show on almost every night of the week.  On Monday there is DWTS.  Tuesday is the elimination round for DWTS and Biggest Loser.  Wednesday Night is Modern Family and Cougar Town.  Thursday is HUGE.  There is Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice.
• Also on Thursday night is Big Bang Theory.  BBT started out being Michael's show when it first premiered.  He thought it was hilarious and I thought it was stupid.  After a while the show started to grow on me, and I started having a nerd crush on Sheldon.  I love Sheldon.  I love Big Bang Theory.
• Usually on Friday nights and Saturday morning, I catch up on all the shows from the week.  Sometimes I'll be up at 6:00 in the morning watching DWTS or Private Practice.  
• Next week, I'll be hosting a giveaway for an ADORABLE Posey Necklace from Too Silly Sisters on Etsy (owned by Lori from Morning Glories and Moonflowers).  If you don't know Lori, you should!  She is the sweetest and she is seriously talented! 
• I have a new design coming soon!! YAY!  Most of you know that I got impatient and impulsive and I just totally screwed up my blog last week.  Although, I finally got everything back into working order, I had a minor panic attack for a few hours last Friday.  It was scary, y'all!  Thankfully, The Design Girl is currently working on a layout for me!  I can't wait! 

I hope you guys have a great weekend!!  *muah*

307

So, today's post is #307.  I had planned to do something grand when I hit the big 300 mark, but with my busy schedule as of late, I didn't get around to it.  I looked back through my blog and was reminiscing on how all of this came to be...it was a nice trip down memory lane.  I originally started this blog because a few friends from Cafemom had transferred their daily rants over here to the blog world.  I touched a toe in the waters on May 29, 2008. 

My first blog post was short and sweet...to be honest, it was a lame excuse for a first blog post.  I was a little nervous.  I had been to blogs that had tons of followers, people they did NOT know in real life, and they were reading everything they wrote.  It seemed like a violation of privacy...it seemed CRAZY!  I wasn't sure what I wanted to write that I was willing to let the whole world (ok, not really because at the time I had NO followers) read.  So, fast forward to June, I was starting to get into the groove of this blog thing.  You just write whatever is in your head for the day.  I have lots of voices things in my head.  Surely I could come up with something interesting to talk about.  My first attempt at that was a blog I wrote about changes taking place in our family at that time...it was important to me...something I needed to get off my chest, it felt good.  I liked this blog thing, kind of like an online journal or diary.  I could do this.  I had been writing in a diary or a journal for years, so it started to get a little easier...feeling a little more natural with each post.  I can't remember when I got my first follower, but I'm pretty sure it was one of my sweet endearing friends from Cafemom who took pity on me and clicked the little follow button out of compassion.  Thank you!  I had no idea how good that would feel to have followers and get comments.  I had no idea that sweet words from "virtual friends" would mean so much.  I had no idea that I would turn some of those virtual friends into REAL-LIFE-flesh-and-blood-honest-to-goodness-FRIENDS.  So cool.  I ♥ blogging.

I know today my blog is a lot different than it was in May of 2008.  I've found some new obsessions interests, taken some new journeys, made lots of new friends, I have more than 3 followers, and I talk about Twilight...a lot lots of random things.  I know I probably drive you guys crazy with my passion for certain things...*achem*...and people.  I know that sometimes you guys don't get me, but I'm totally cool with that.  I'm just glad you stick around.  I would love to meet each and everyone of you in person someday.  I've formed bonds with so many of you...over various common interests.  So, as a way of saying "thanks for reading my ramblings and putting up with my nonsense", I would like to do a fun giveaway...not Twilight related...I know...SHOCKER!  (Ok, perhaps if the person who wins the giveaway is a Twilight fan I could throw in a little somethin' somethin'.)  The giveaway is just going to be a collection of some of my favorite pampering items, since most of my readers are girls, I figured you guys would enjoy them as well!

Here's how to enter:

• Leave a comment - this is good for one entry.
• Become a follower - this is good for one entry. (If you're already a follower, you'll get two extra entries.)
• Re-post about the giveaway on your blog - this is good for two entries.
• Re-post about the giveaway on Facebook or Twitter - this is good for one entry.

The giveaway will end on April 13th at noon.  I will use the Random Number Generator to select the winner and post it the next day!  Stop by tomorrow and I'll have a picture of all the things included in the giveaway.

Hope you're all having a great day!♥

THE Official Twilight Convention - ATL 2010...AND Eclipse Trailer!!

There is SO much excitement in Twi-land!  Have you seen the Eclipse teaser and/or trailer yet??
For those who haven't...don't waste any more time...Here's the TRAILER...(Feel free to watch it as much as you want...I don't charge for parking. :)

OHMYTWILIGHTGOODNESS (OMTG...from here on out)!!!  How exciting is that?  Goosebumps?  Check.  Elevated blood pressure?  Check.  Tear in eye?  Check. (Quit judging me...it's emotional!)  Edward just saying her name at the beginning is enough to get me, and then you throw Jacob's bit in there "I'll fight for you until your heart stops beating"....holy smokes, does it get any sweeter than that?  Oh, to be Bella Swan for a day...a girl can dream.

Who wants to talk Twilight Convention?  Me!  I do!  I do!

Most asked questions...

Was it fun?  Hmmmm.  Let me check.  DUH!  Let's just say that it was beyond fun...it was amazing...I need to invent a new word for how fun it was.

Would I do it again?  That would be a yes!  I'm hooked.  When's the next one?  Sign me up!

Would I get Gold Package again?  Absolutely, YES!  It was well worth it.  We were on the 4th row and it was easy to get great pictures.  We also had tickets to all of the extras.  It was nice to be first in line for autographs.  I would definitely go gold again.

What was the best part?  It's just too hard to choose...but the highlights are meeting all seven stars.  I went in being so super excited to meet Peter Facinelli (which was amazing...if I say "amazing" one more time, just change my name to Jake and put me on the Bachelor), and it was definitely a highlight...probably at the top of the list.  He is so down to earth and super funny.  I was just hanging on every.single.word.he.said.  What I thought was interesting was that I was excited to see each star because of the role they play in the Twilight Saga, but I left being a personal fan.  I love each and every one of them for who they are and not just for the role they play.  Does that make sense? 

My most memorable conversation was with Michael Welch (Mike Newton).  It was at the end of a long day and we were waiting in line for his autograph.  We were having fun conversations with all the people we were standing in line with and goofing off.  So, by the time we got to the table to get our autograph, we were being silly and cutting up (which is right up his alley...he is SUCH a clown!).  I was telling him how good his coffee smelled...and how I wish I had some Starbucks about right now.  We hadn't ate ALL day.  (One of the prices you pay to be at Twi Con...we referred to it as the Twi Con Diet...everybody should try it. =P)  So, he starts sipping on his coffee...really slowly...savoring each sip.  All the while, we're just standing there waiting on our autograph.  I told him how unfair it was and that he was basically a punk (yeah, I might of said those exact words...while laughing, of course).  THEN, he offers me a drink of his coffee!  I thought he was joking at first, but after us discussing the fact that I don't have cooties, I realized that he was being completely serious.  I wouldn't do it because I thought he would probably just throw it away after I walked off...but now I'm not sure that he would of, he's pretty crazy like that.  I told him I couldn't see a good cup of coffee go to waste...that is just wrong.  We had a good laugh.  It was fun interacting with him.

Gil Birmingham (Billy Black) is from Texas, and being the big time Sooner fans that my cousin Lindsay and I are, we decided we needed to find out if he was a UT (Longhorns) fan.  I would like to assure that he is NOT.  Whew, what a relief.  Funny thing was that he didn't even know who we were talking about.  He's not a football fan.  We told him we wouldn't hold it against him.

An unexpected surprise was the cast of the internet phenom Hillywood Show.  They were so super cool and played their roles so well!  Sometimes I felt like I was looking at THE Jacob or THE Jasper...they were so so good.  Hilly and Hannah are amazing talents.  They're geniuses at this parody stuff.  You should check them out online.  You can find them at http://www.thehillywoodshow.com/ !

I collected a few things while at the Convention to giveaway...how does a little Twilight Convention/New Moon Giveaway sound???  Come back tomorrow for a peak at what I have to give away and the details on how to enter!

To see all of my pictures from The Official Twilight Convention Atlanta 2010, go to my facebook page - www.facebook.com/jennykate77 .  I have my pictures set to public for now or you can just send me a friend request if you would like!

(I have a whole album dedicated to the Adventures of Pocket Edward...you don't want to miss it.)

I hope you are all having a great week!  I'm trying to resume to my normal routine...and hopefully I'll get around to visiting all my favorite bloggers soon!!  I miss you guys when I'm not here♥

Monday, Monday.

I'm sorry for the lack of blogging. It's not been intentional. I've had this yucky sinus junk and just have not been feeling myself lately.


Plus, I've had this little guy at work with me some the past couple of weeks.

Which one do you like better?  I've been playing around with some photo editing in Picnik.

It seems like Isaiah is out of school every time I turn around. We've had lots of snow and ice days this year, and then you add on the "professional days" and holidays and it just gets crazy!

Guess what this week is???

Did you guess?

If you guessed that it is THE OFFICIAL Twilight Convention, then you would be absolutely correct! I fly to Atlanta on Thursday. My cousin, Lindsay, is picking me up from the airport and we are meeting up with some friends for dinner in Peach Tree City that night. There's a little twist to the dinner though. These friends we're meeting are a couple of friends who I met on Cafemom and now keep up with through Facebook. So, it's going to be super exciting to finally meet them in person.

The convention starts on Friday! Gold Weekend Patrons (that's us!) get to pre-register at 11:00 on Friday. We'll be there with bells on...we definitely don't want to miss a thing! Friday is the day we get to see Peter Facinelli!   Woot! 

I think he's definitely the person I am most excited about seeing. The event that I am most looking forward to is the Volturi Ball on Saturday night!! I love my dress and shoes that I bought and I can't wait to wear them!

I'm taking my laptop and I plan on trying to blog while I'm there. We'll see how that goes. I may at least be able to post some pics and do a short post. I will definitely be posting on Facebook and Twitter. So, if you follow me on one of those sites, you'll be able to see some pics and read my ramblings from TwiCon.

One thing I'm not looking forward to is leaving Isaiah for almost 5 days! I'm going to be away from him for 4 nights! That's the longest I've ever been gone from him. I hadn't really thought much about it until now. Up to this point, I had just thought of Twilight and being in Atlanta with Lindsay...and how much fun all of that was going to be. I told him last night how much I was going to miss him and he said that if I miss him too much I could call him...thanks, Buddy. I'm thinking it'll be harder on me than it will be on him.

I'm planning on doing a giveaway of stuff from the convention! I haven't decided what might be in that giveaway just yet...I may not know until I'm there and see what I find to include in it. Any ideas? Requests? =) Stuff you think would be cool?

Extreme Makeover: Me Edition

Amber at {aefilkins} hosts Extreme Makeover: Me Edition each week on Wednesdays. It is a fabulous time to read other people's journey to healthy living and weight loss, gain encouragement, give encouragement...and make friends! We all want friends, right?! :)

This week's topic is simple:

--------------------------------------------------------------

Share with us how you're feeling about your progress.

--------------------------------------------------------------

To be completely honest, this week has been a struggle for me. I haven't worked out with Maksim since last Friday! *hang head in shame* My in-laws came for a visit over the weekend and with visitors always comes FOOD! We grilled out and I was good...I made myself a turkey burger and it was YUMM-O!

Let's pause for a recipe break...

Jenny's YUMM-O Turkey Burgers

1 pound of ground Turkey (all white meat...lean)

2 slices of Pepper Jack Cheese

seasoning salt

Directions: divide ground turkey into 4 equal parts. Roll turkey into a ball and press out. Take cheese slices and divide them into fourths. Press 2 cheese squares in the middle of each turkey patty and cover with the ground turkey and press back into a patty. Season w/ seasoning salt (or any kind of seasoning) and grill...and Enjoy! They're delish!

You know how it is when family is around...you just sit and visit and eat...and drink mojitos. Oh, you don't drink mojitos? Hmmm. Maybe that's just us. Well, for anyone wanting to know a mojito made w/ 2 oz light rum and 4 oz of mojito mix is 4 points on WW.

On Sunday, Isaiah went home with his Grammy and Papaw for a few days. *insert pouty lip and major sad face* He's NEVER been out-of-town without us and NEVER stayed that many days without us. It was so hard to let him go...he's my baby and I want to keep him that way...BUT it was good for him and he LOVED it!

Going to Grammy and Papaw's!

He really had a great time and did terrific! However, while he was gone, in the evening I felt myself wanting to eat and snack due to nervousness/boredom. It was all I could do to just go to bed and not eat something...popcorn, chips and guacamole, crackers and cream cheese...something! I'm just relieved to make it to Wednesday. Isaiah is back home and it's weigh-in day at WW! WOOHOO! As of last week, I had lost 16.2 pounds LOST 18 POUNDS (an additional 1.8 at WW this week!). *fingers crossed* for another good weight loss. (I'll come back on and update this post after weigh-in.) I had a small goal set for this weekend. When I started trying to lose weight back in March, I had said I wanted to lose 20 pounds by my family reunion, which is this weekend. I don't think I'll hit 20, but I feel good knowing that I'm close. My next goal was to have lost 25 pounds by the NKOTB concert in Dallas on the 17th of July. I'm really hoping to meet that one! I need to look smokin' hott for Joey! (Right, Xazmin?! :)

My goals for this week are: to keep eating as many fruits and veggies as I can squeeze into a day..."portable fruits" (aka bananas, grapes, berries...things that don't need peeled, cut, or sliced) ROCK! I also have been trying to drink at least 8-10 glasses of water every day...thanks to my stainless steel water bottle, it's been pretty easy! I love that thing! I MUST exercise! I'm hoping my nose unclogs so I can get back to exercising with Maksim asap ...acceptable levels of oxygen are essential while exercising with Maksim!

If you commented on a Comment for a Cause, you have a package headed your way! :)

**I'm still having MAJOR blogging issues, so please know that I'm trying to get around to everyone's blog and comment...it just takes me FOREVER!!!...if I see one more "error" message I think I'll SCREAM and simultaneously throw my computer out of this 4th story window...hopefully, things will be back to normal soon!**

Hope everyone is having a great week!
