Award Season!

First the Grammys, next the Oscars and me. I have been given an award by the beautiful, charming and oh so stylish Mimi at aesthetic lounge. She is a New Yorker, jewelry designer, and fabulous blogger. I especially love her Friday posts, fun finds friday. You must check her out and add her to your daily reads.
So I am supposed to tell some thing new about myself , here we go.....


My husband is surprising me with a trip in May. I won't know where I am going until I get to the airport. He is even packing for me (yikes) I think we might be going to some tropical island....or Paris!!

My sister has been trying, unsuccessfully, to have a baby for years. This summer she will finally go to Korea and adopt her sweet baby boy. I am more excited for her than words can describe!!
I was on a date with another guy when I met my hubby.... everything worked out they way it should!!About 8 years ago I had an online business with a friend. When she moved overseas to teach she had great access to children's smocked dresses. We launched a website (ouithree.com) and supplied dresses to boutiques in STL. It was a great side business and I am sad we let it go. If we would of stuck it out, it could of been a great business. The one good thing, I have all the inventory in my house!!

Well, there you have it...



Now I tag the following lovely ladies..

  3. Thanks for the award! Yay! You know how much I LOVE you and your blog, right? :)

    How exciting your mister planned a trip for you in May. I love that it's a secret and he's packing for you (My mister needs to take a few tips from your mister. He just isn't "wired" that way.). I can't wait to hear where you are going! :)

    Congrats to your sister. How wonderful!

    I hope you have a great day!

  6. Aw, thanks for the kind words!! I love that you met your hubby on a date with another guy! It does go to show that things happen for a reason! And the fact that he's taking you on a surprise trip AND packing for you, is the sweetest, coolest gift ever. Maybe he needs to pass on this idea to my hubby;)
