This is the dress my mother in law made me for Easter. I think it turned out really well! The length hits right under my knees….Terence took the picture and he didn’t get the entire dress in!

I love getting stuff in the mail! I get overly excited every day when I rush to our box at 11:30 and slowly turn the key (hoping for no bills!) and get a package! YEAH! My sweet sister in Vegas sent me this cute neckalace and this great bag! She also sent me some chocolate coins (which are already eaten up!) I love my sweet sister and I miss her SOOOO much! Today is my precious Mommy’s birthday…happy 49th Mommy! And my Daddy turned 52 last Friday!!! I love you both and miss you more than you know…..

I made this adorable little box today at work. Our theme for this year is “be” something…like “be” nice, or “be” helpful…so they wanted me to make an idea box and I think it turned out cute! I wonder if Martha would approve of my craftiness?

I hope everyone had a very happy Easter! I did! We didn’t do anything extremely exciting or out of the ordinary. We went to church Sunday morning then Sunday night we had dinner with Terence’s entire family. I didn’t get any pictures of any of that though 🙁 I’m slacking!

I went to Borders yesterday on my lunch break and got a couple of new books though. I got a book about PCOS, so I can better understand all of the problems I’m having. So far it’s a pretty good read and it even has diet information and it explains symptoms and other things I’ve had questions about. The second book is “Confessions of a Shopaholic”. I have wanted to read this for awhile now, but especially because the book is now being made into a movie! Yeah…it will be like The Devil Wears Prada all over again! Loved that movie!
Also-Ya’ll I have a serious addiction to O.P.I. nail polish! It’s so smooth and never clumps like the cheapo stuff. I’m starting quite a collection eh? Was I just talking about shopaholics? Hmm….
Terence just went running with his cousin this afternoon. All I want to do when I come home is plop down and eat something. Why can’t I get motivation? I think being tired all the time has something to do with all that is going on with me as well…maybe the book will help 🙂

I took some pictures of my friend and co-worker Julie today as well. That is why we were at the botanical gardens! She is graduating college in May and wanted some nice photos. I’m not a professional or anything, but we had lots of fun! Tell me what you think?

and we also saw THIS!

Friday night


Last night I had so much fun hanging out with my new friend K and her sista! We went to Southlake where they have the cutest shopping center with all these fancy boutiques and they also have a Cheesecake Factory. So you know me….we had to go there! After that we shopped around and then went to Barnes and Noble to check out J’Lo’s baby pics in the new People. They are so precious!!!

This monster was for dessert…YUM!

I got some new shoes today to wear for Easter. They are so cute! And they are flats, which are comfy. My dear mother-in-law is making me an Easter dress to wear Sunday and I am so excited about it! I will try and post a picture of the finished dress…

My sweet Mommy & Daddy sent me a Target card for Easter so I could get some goodies! I love how they still call me “Becky Bird”, which was a nickname when I was a baby because I would peck at my food…ahhh parents! That was so sweet of them!
