Weekend Highlights

When I got home from work on Friday, there was only one thing on my mind: relaxation. I had had one hell of a week and definitely deserved some downtime. Thankfully, the weather has been a lot more cooperative as of late so the pool called to me as I stepped in the front door. I debated it, since I had so much work to do, both around the house and for the office (take home work always sucks), but finally the pool won. I quickly slapped on my bikini, grabbed a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon (we are low on beer) and hit the water! It was really relaxing just to float in complete peace and quiet (aside from the passing traffic on the other side of the fence) and say hello to my weekend.

Saturday was my favorite little boy’s 4th birthday: my nephew! He had a great time at his race car themed party at a local school. I have to say I teased my sister quite a bit for buying several bite-sized cars on Ebay to have the kids race with, but they had a complete and total blast. In fact, I had a blast just watching them! And possibly the best part of the day was watching my nephew speed around with a gigantic smile on his face. Happy birthday, little guy!

This week will be especially tough on me as I have to find the time to concentrate amid the excitement – I leave next week to Comic-Con!!! Can I press the fast forward button and then the slow-mo?

My hubs introduced me to the greatness that is A Bryan Photo. They are lifestyle and wedding photographers that shoot soley in film for photos and super-8 for video. And they are glorious. Check out their blog for great photos, such as this Star Wars themed wedding (way classier and fun than expected) as well as their Vimeo channel for amazing videos such as this one.

Lovable Friday!

lovablefriday1

I’m back everyone!!! I’ve felt pretty detached from all things Internet since we started the move last weekend, but I’m happy to report that I am back in the saddle! We are completely head over heels over our new home, but it is a lot of work! I’ll make sure to post pictures next week of the progress we have made and will be sharing a lot of our ideas for the future. Also, make sure to keep your eyes peeled next week for another amazing fashion giveaway you are going to love! June is going to be a very busy month for Melificent – I can’t wait to share it all with you guys!

1. Smashing Pumpkins Announce Intimate US tour

I honestly cannot control my insane happiness over the news that my favorite band in the world, The Smashing Pumpkins, will be playing an extremely intimate series of shows during the month of July. As if that wasn’t cool enough, one of their few stops is in Fort Lauderdale, specifically, at Revolution Live (one of my favorite venues)! Are you kidding me???? I’m pretty sure I just fangirled myself. Mr. Corgan is also hinting that special VIP access may be granted to some special fans including a private soundcheck! Unfortunately, the band has not released ticket prices or onsale dates, which has me extremely anxious. Must.have.tickets.now.

Once again, All-Mighty strikes in the cute department! They just recently released some new items, including an adorable paws necklace along with this wrapping paper sprinkled with Boston Terriers. Unfortunately, it is $3 a sheet and not a roll. Total bummer!

Now that we are almost ready to move into our new home (squee!), I’ve been shopping for a lot more home accessories than usual. Unfortunately, I stumbled upon this gorgeous ruffled shower curtain from Anthropologie. I say unfortunately because this pretty little lady is $118! Of course, after seeing it, I became obsessed with having a ruffled shower curtain in our master bathroom and thankfully after some Internet scouring, I found a more affordable ruffle action from Target. But I’ll most probably still find myself lusting after this one from time to time. Oh, how you pain me so, Anthropologie!
