Yellow and Black Wedding (caleb's fave colors- says his wedding will be like this)

Create your own Yellow and Black wedding theme. My inspiration:

“Palm Springs” Yellow Invite and butterfly cake photo from KenzieKate.com, Bride photo via

iamstyle-ish.com, black and yellow favor box from A Modern Proposal, and elegant yellow and black themed table scape courtesy of Bella Fluerny.

Have you decided on yellow as your wedding color but not sold on the black accent?

July (so far)

Sorry I haven't posted but man have I been busy... we had the fourth, and we cooked, grilled, baked everything for that day.. it was a busy weekend for that matter... then we got a new grill that the hubby just had to try.. he brought it home and put it all together himself, so it like we had to grill everything that weekend.. you know how men get.. sometimes worse than women i swear..

then I have been working on invitations, I want to make some just to have to show what I can do.. ya know? Someone might see one of those and really like them... so I have been busy creating and making announcements and invites.. and I found some software to help make some cool ideas that I have been seeing for cards.. I get that tomorrow.. then I will be busy making all kinds of things.. lol...

oh and did you hear we are in this month parenting magazine, in the article about picking your battles with your kids.. let me know if you don't see it.. I can find you a link...

How was your fourth? what did you do? Anything crazy happen?

ranting, talking, blabbering

Sorry I haven't blogged a few weeks, just a lot on my mind... Since Nim's Invitations wasn't making money because of the economy I thought that I would lay off that for a while and focus on just being a mom. Great at that, not my hubby my any means that can take care of everything and make me look like I don't do a thing.. which YES I know that I am truly blessed to have him. So that leaves me a lil bit more time but then I don't want to do anything ya know, like I am lost. Right now Chase and Chris are dealing with allergies that make them just feel like crap, but they are playing games and still wanting to play basketball... that's kept them entertained, so I clean up and there is only so much laundry a person can do, right now I just have socks to be washed. I already did the dishes now just need detergent so that I can wash them. We are paying for so many things right now so that a few certain serious items get taken care of .. like my license.. that's a whole-nother blog in its own.. but thankfully that will be taken care of very soon, I go to get my state id one day this week. Then school gets out this week on Friday and then it is summer.. have to figure a few things out to do with the boys.. Chris has a physical on Monday for football and for boy scouts. He has a summer camp coming up in a few weeks.

I am the type of person to let things overwhelm me before they happen. Like I think too much of something and I get all worked up for it.. really for nothing. .. anyone else have this problem, because I would like to know how to deal with it better.. never had this problem before and I am not dealing with it very well.

So to anyone else out there that is running their own business, do you know the secret to get it off the ground better? Maybe I am just not meant to run my own business, then what am I meant to do? UGH... advice, or just something to say to help me out here? Thanks guys... can always count on y'all to be honest and tell me hey lady you are being stupid and a big whiny ass... yes I know my ass is big, i am working on losing some of that too....

MY WORLD TODAY

Good day all,

I hope you are getting all your xmas shopping done.. there is soo much... I have gotten everything but 2 gifts.. whew.. this is the first year that I have not had to wait until Xmas eve to finish.. and I ordered almost everything online. So this it the time I will see if it easier to do online or not... or worth it.. hahha

I have ordered the cards, and one shirt.. got a twitter account and am trying to get my name somewhere.. I have soo many ideas and things that I want to do.. but Rome wasn't built in a day.. so I am trying to be patient.

The garage door is being replaced.. and the dogs are going nuts.. trying to think with dogs going nuts is soo hard.. it is like the boys are all home and yelling .....

Tell me about your day

So many ideas...

I have so many ideas of what I need to do and what I want to do to get this going.. I have a new logo that is vibrant and pretty. I am going to be updating my blog page and my- myspace page, too. I already ordered my new business cards and I also ordered on shirt! I keep telling myself that I can do this and there is really no reason why I can't do it! It is my fault only if it fails. Does anyone know how to make a layout for my blog page? I don't quite get that..

I do want to share with you who the wonderful angel was that created my new logo.. here name is craftylilmomma.. Most all of you know her by that name.. she created my first logo and myspace background and I loved it too! She is sooo creative and smart. I love her business sense. I love her caring and big heart and how much patience she has. Without her I wouldn't be doing this. I know that I would not have been able to do this without her support. Thanks Jen!
