Valentine Party by myfavoritecolorispink featuring stud earrings

January 28, 1986 ~ We will never forget~

I was a freshman in high school when the space shuttle Challenger blew up 72 seconds into flight. What a sad day it was for our country.

American Idol Season 10!

So, the fam and I watched season 10 of American Idol last night. I really thought with new judges etc... the show might be on its last legs. Boy, am I glad I was wrong! I am so excited for this season after watching last night. I saw so many talented singers.

I was even more impressed with  Idol judges, Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez!!! I thought Steven Tyler being on AI might be "hokie" but No, No, it was not! He was so gracious and nice. I think I might love him now.

Contestant Chris Medina captured my vote of the night, when I heard the story of how he and his would be mother-in-law takes care of his fiancee, Victoria Ramos. She was brain damaged and paralyzed after a terribble car crash two months before their wedding. I ain't gonna lie, I bawled like a baby!

Check out the "Pink Swap" at Monograms and Manicures!!!

Hopsy at Monograms and Manicures is hosting a "Pink Swap." Participants are asked to send a partner "pink" goodies. How much fun is this? I am so excited as my girlfriends and I are going on a shopping trip this weekend. I hope to find many "pink" goodies for the swap.

Ready For A Vacation!!!

So, where are you going for Winter Break??? I would love to go somewhere  warm. Hmmm... Wish I could talk my husband into that.  Here are some  "dreamy" things to get you ready for your warm vacation. Now, make some reservations. Ha!

Saw this on Social Climbers blog and thought it was hilarious!!
