I've got STD fever!!!

So when I first started posting on Internet message boards and forums I was always so confused about the letter language that everybody was using!
WTF, FI,DH, OOT, DIY, PIB, and my all time favorite STD!
I know right! I will never forget one day when I innocently logged on to theknot.com message boards to be assaulted with a post in all caps loudly proclaiming:

I GOT MY STD'S!!!!!!

I almost spit my water all over the computer screen! All I could think was uhh, damn STD's...PLURAL!!! Obviously she's not living right!

But I was relieved to find out that STD was the Internet bride's way of talking about her SAVE THE DATE cards!
With guests and family schedule's being so packed couple's have taken to sending Save the Date cards months in advance (usually 6-8 months before the wedding) to let their loved ones know about their upcoming wedding!
Is it absolutely necessary.... nope!
Is it a fun thing to do and another awesome way to brand your most fabulous wedding? Most divanitely, YES!

Lately I'm all about the save the date design! I've got new save the date designs up at my etsy store and the one up at the top is the newest design that I have been working on! I'm loving it! I hope you all don't think I'm extra conceited putting our picture in all the designs! It just easier cause Mikey and I are willing guinea pigs!!

On the home front: I'm still fighting the INFLUENZA so I'm exhausted half the damn day! But I am pressing on with all my great life changes! Today when Michael came home he said "Oooh, you look cute!" and I did! I put on a little jean skirt, a cute red top, and some cute sandals just to chill around the house! Ya, I know its January but errr um its hot in my house! I'm embracing my inner fabulousness!

Just cause I'm a stay at home mom doesn't mean I'm not a fierce one! I made the most delicious pot roast with creamy mashed potatoes and brown sugar cured baby carrots! I can barely move it was so delicious!!!

So my darling diva's.....
When was the last time you home-cooked a deliciously divine meal for you and your family! Luckily, now that I am at home, I'm able to do it all the time. I know how the hustle and bustle of working, keeping up with bills, keeping it fabulous, and just being you can keep you at the local take out joint! That is perfectly fine! My takeout menu drawer can be my best friend but every once in a while its nice to make something totally from scratch...

It can be totally therapeutic to chop your own onions, peel your own potatoes, and watch your loved ones devour the meal you made all on your own. It makes me feel like even with all the craziness in the world for just this one moment I have given my family something of my own making, filled with nothing but my good intentions and love, something that will give them that good, full belly feeling that is so divine!

Stay fierce, fabulous and full of good food & good love,
