On another note, concerning Francisco's birthday...

I think that this:



... and these:



... are a good option for exciting birthday cake number three!!!

These could make the cupcakes easier... but it would be more fun if they were edible!



Then again, I wonder how difficult it would be to make white chocolate golf balls. Yum.



We could stir drinks with these:



Due to the fact that I now have no idea whether to go with a traditional Halloween theme or a golf theme, here is a lovely combination of the two:



Fun, fun.

Francisco's Birthday Halloween Bash

Guests could be greeted by this sign in the window as the walk down the sidewalk:



The birthday boy could wear this:



My best friend would look adorable in this:



We could eat little cakes made in this pan:



Dunk chips in salsas and dips in these little bowls:


... and have a generally good time.

=D

Having a whale of a time!

However... it says it is for ages 3+, and Violet is still itty bitty. So sad.


I think I am going to order her one of these for Christmas. The smaller one, so that it will fit in her little bedroom.


This is adorable!

Birthday Present Pearl Bracelet

Almost a month late, this is what I am getting for my birthday. It's gorgeous.

Okay, so I lied. Well, the lady at Macy's who told us the sale price lied. Sad to say, we couldn't afford it.

Something Blue

My wedding is going to be very blue in the happiest way possible. I am looking to incorporate blue into my own apparel through my headband piece. I think that we can build off of the headband below.


I think that this clip is beautiful and am wondering if I could add some blue in with the pretty white and silver.


Now I just need to think about something old and something borrowed...

When the sun shines, we'll shine together...

Definitely looking to pick up one or two of these cute bubble umbrellas in case of rain on our wedding day. Even if it doesn't rain, I say we take rain pictures anyway. There's nothing like splashing in an invisible puddle holding an adorable umbrella.



There are many color options here at Target!

There are 50-ish days until our wedding. Hmm.

Bedding!

Our lovely future bedding! Francisco really hates duvets due to all of the extra work of putting them back on the comforter, but I told him that I would do it every time.

My mom picked it up for me when we were shopping at Pottery Barn. :)

Flower Girl Update

I haven't yet figured out how to get a picture of this dress on my blog, but here is a link to the dress that our flower girl will be wearing at the church ceremony. These are her shoes.

We bought another dress (that is NOT white!) for the reception, but I can't even find a picture of it online. If I do, I will post it. Otherwise, I will upload a picture of my own (which I haven't taken yet).

Flower girl dress?

This cute little dress only costs $30 at the gap!

Llevo tu corazón conmigo

I love the idea of ring bearer bowls, and I love the poem above by E.E. Cummings. I would want it imprinted, translated to Spanish.

"Llevo tu corazón conmigo, lo llevo en mi corazón, nunca estoy sin él."
