Shutterfly's 2011 Holiday Collection!

I was super excited the other day when I received a trial for Shutterfly's Holiday 2011 cards. I am really interested in trying them out. I have not used Shutterfly for holiday cards before, but I HAVE used them for other photo items.

This past June, we bought Ryan's dad a photo apron. It was super cute and way easy to do. I just selected a photo and that was it! It is a simple white apron, but cute.  I have also used them for photo magnets and thank you note cards. Shutterfly has always been easy to use.

So, I am gonna try them out for my Christmas Cards! Here are some of the exciting things I get to look at:

- Holiday greetings


·Christmas cards

·Invitations

·Thank you cards

·Photo Christmas cards

·Photo blankets

I think I am going to go for the Holiday Greetings cards. Why not get into the holiday spirit early?! Heck, I was listening to Michael Bublé's new Christmas CD the other day (which is FABULOUS)!





I will be sure to let you all know how my cards turned out!

Wedding Song Wednesday ~ I Do

I Do- by Colbie Caillat- I heard this on an engagement ring commercial the other day and thought it was super cute for a wedding entrance song!



"I Do"

It's always been about me, myself, and I
I thought relationships were nothing but a waste of time
I never wanted to be anybody's other half
I was happy saying I had a love that wouldn't last
That was the only way I knew 'til I met you

You make me wanna say
I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do doo
Yeah, I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do doo
Cause every time before it's been like
Maybe yes and maybe no
I can't live without it, I can't let it go
Ooh what did I get myself into?
You make me wanna say I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do,

Tell me is it only me
Do you feel the same?
You know me well enough to know that I'm not playing games
I promise I won't turn around and I won't let you down
You can trust I've never felt it like I feel it now
Baby there's nothing, there's nothing we can't get through
So can we say
I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do doo
Oh baby, I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do doo
Cause every time before it's been like
Maybe yes and maybe no
I won't live without it, I won't let it go
What more can I get myself into?
You make me wanna say

Me, a family, a house, a family
Ooh, can we be a family?
And when I'm eighty years old I'm sitting next to you

And we'll remember when we said
I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do do
Oh baby, I do, I do, I do, do do do do do do do
Cause every time before it's been like
Maybe yes and maybe no
I won't live without it, I won't let us go
Just look at what we got ourselves into
You make me wanna say I do, I do, I do, I do, I do, I do,
Love you

Man Candy Monday - Jimmy Fallon

Yup...he's a hottie in my book! He makes me laugh, and that's number one in my book!

Most know for:  His work on Saturday Night Live (SNL)

Favorite Recurring characters on SNL:

  • Dave, a young man in the Will Ferrell/Rachel Dratch recurring sketch, "The Lovers", often used as a pawn in Roger and Virginia's matchmaking.
  • Jeffrey's clerk, one of the clerks (the other being a male host for the show) of an upscale department store.
  • Nick Burns, a sarcastic tech support representative who helps office workers with computer problems (and is almost always exposed as not knowing as much as he should by one of the workers). He frequently used the catchphrase "Moooooove!" when ousting people from their desk so he could fix the problem.
  • Randy Goldman, from "Wake Up Wakefield", Megan's (Maya Rudolph) crush who does not know she exists.
  • Wade, one of the members of the boy band 7 Degrees Celsius

This is a GREAT and fun wedding procession entrance song.  I love it!!!

Marry You- Glee version
(original song by Bruno Mars)



"Marry You"

It's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go,
No one will know,
Come on girl.
Who cares if we're trashed got a pocket full of cash we can blow,
Shots of patron,
And it's on girl.

Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.

Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

I'll go get a ring let the choir bells sing like oooh,
So whatcha wanna do?
Let's just run girl.

If we wake up and you wanna break up that's cool.
No, I won't blame you;
It was fun girl.

Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.

Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Just say I do,
Tell me right now baby,
Tell me right now baby. [x2]

Cause it's a beautiful night,
We're looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.

Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you

3 Head-Turning Hair Dos for the Holidays!

This fall and winter seasons you can weave your way into the hottest hair trend—braids. With simple tips from the Italian born Pirri brothers to create three head-turning dos, you can sport the latest trend, both low maintenance and easy to style for the everyday look.

Fun Fishtail Side Pony
Apply Pirri Elements Lava Glaze Smooth & Relaxing Serum (www.pirrihairgroup.com), and depending on time, blow or air dry your hair. Loosely tie an elastic hair tie an inch below your neck for a loose braid. You can leave a few strands of your hair out in front to get Fergie’s look. Separate your hair in two equal sections. Begin the braid by taking about an inch of hair from your outer right side and crossing it over to the middle section (towards the inside of the left side). Repeat with the left side. Continue braiding down, taking sections and repeating the mentioned steps— while pulling your hair towards the right side to create a side braid. Tie with your hair tie, once reaching the bottom. Gently remove the elastic hair tie you loosely tied at the top, and finito!


Twisted Glam Fishtail Braid
Swing your loose locks to one side of your shoulders, after styling. Section off about two to three inches of your hair from the middle. Secure with an elastic band, and fishtail braid down to the bottom. To do so, separate your hair in two equal sections. Begin the braid by taking about an inch of hair from your outer right side and crossing it over to the middle section (towards the inside of the left side). Repeat with the left side. Continue braiding down, taking sections and repeating the mentioned steps. Grab a glam hair brooch and secure it to your hair, on top of the elastic band. To finish off the look, take your curling iron and create loose waves around your fishtail braid for an ultra glam look.


Bohemian Chic
Apply Pirri Elements Nature’s Breeze Detangler & Leave-In Conditioner (www.pirrihairgroup.com) prior to blow drying your hair to manage fly-aways. Section your front right and left side locks into two half inch pieces. Section the right side into three pieces and braid all the way down. Loosely tie the braid with an elastic band. Repeat steps on left section. Remove hair tie on right side, and tie right and left braids behind your head with an elastic band. Section off another half an inch section at the end of the connected braids, and braid the bottom into a new weave. Continuing the braid down to give you a total of three connected braids—an additional twist to Lauren Conrad’s pictured look.

Born in Italy, the Pirri Brothers first developed hair styles for the elegant salons of the southern town of Calabria, then moving to London to continue their education for advanced technical skills. Being surrounded by Europe’s most prominent talent, in a city with sharp and constantly evolving style they possess the essence of Europe at their fingertips and have created and conceptualized trend setting styles that have graced fashion and beauty magazines worldwide.

Wedding Song Wednesday ~To Make You Feel My Love

Hello Everyone, and WELCOME to any new readers visiting from Join the Gossip! That's right, we have visitors because I was given the great honor of Guest Posting over at Leeann's blog while she is on vacation! Head on over there and get some GREAT tips for planning your upcoming holiday parties!

I hope you enjoy what you read, if you have any questions, just let me know!

Now, on with our Wedding song Wednesday- today, I choose a great song by my new favorite lady, Adele:

To Make You Feel My Love- Adele



When the rain
Is blowing in your face
And the whole world
Is on your case
I could offer you
A warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows
And the stars appear
And there is no - one there
To dry your tears
I could hold you
For a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you
Haven't made
Your mind up yet
But I would never
Do you wrong
I've known it
From the moment
That we met
No doubt in my mind
Where you belong


I'd go hungry
I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling
Down the avenue
No, there's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging
On the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
Though winds of change
Are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing
Like me yet

I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends
Of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love, To make you feel my love

*hugs*

Wedding Song Wednesday ~ 1, 2, 3, 4

1, 2, 3, 4 – Plain White T’s





1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4

Givin’ me more love than I have ever had
Make it all better when I’m feelin’ sad
Tell me that I’m special even when I know I’m not

Make it feel good when I hurt so bad
Barely gettin’ mad, I’m so glad I found you
I love bein’ around you
You make it easy
As easy as 1, 2 (1, 2, 3, 4)

There’s only one thing to do
Three words for you
I love you (I love you)
There’s only one way to say
Those three words and that’s what I’ll do
I love you (I love you)

Givin’ me more love from the very start
Piece me back together when I fall apart
Tell me things you never even tell your closest friends

Make it feel good when I hurt so bad
Best that I’ve had, I’m so glad I found you
I love bein’ around you
You make it easy, It's easy as 1, 2 (1, 2, 3, 4)

There’s only one thing to do
Three words for you
I love you (I love you)
There’s only one way to say
Those three words and that’s what I’ll do
I love you (I love you)
(I love) I love you

You make it easy
As easy as 1, 2 (1, 2, 3, 4)

There’s only one thing to do
Three words for you
I love you (I love you)
There’s only one way to say
Those three words and that’s what I’ll do

I love you (I love you)
(I love) I love you

1, 2, 3, 4
(I love you) I love you
(I love you) I love you
