Pre-Wedding Hawaii Ramblings

We had a looooong flight. Getting from Albuquerque to Oakland was fine, (other than having to get up at 3am!) Getting from Oakland to Honolulu was a different story. First, SN realized that I had been assigned a seat and he had not, next our flight was delayed 2 hours, and when we finally boarded the plane, we had to wait on the runway another 1/2 hour because of bad weather. Oh yeah, and the $5 ice cream I bought at the airport was terrible. WE ARE HAPPY THOUGH!  :)  :)   :)  Everyone is getting along and we have been having a wonderful time. We saw a monk seal on the beach and ate lunch at a really tasty bakery today. We barbequed last night and went swimming tonight. There is some big news - no more Captain Howie! That's right, after an entire year of planning, we decided to scrap the entire Captain Howie/Kualoa Ranch wedding at the last moment and planned an entirely different wedding in just a few hours. I'll post more about that another time though. We're getting up e

Blog Hop - Share Your Favorite Posts

I'm basking in my last few days of Christmas Break freedom before returning to work on Monday. Really, the transition back into the real world shouldn't be very hard. I'm off on Tuesday. Now, let's link up! Remember, the blog hop from today will be back next week, featuring the best posts from this weekend. It gives you extra exposure for your time spent sharing links - and it's another opportunity to check out great posts you missed.

How to Increase Traffic to Your Blog

 How to Increase Traffic to Your Blog (Otherwise known as a BLOG HOP!) If anyone out there has any great Vitamix recipes to link up, please do. I finally gave in and invested in one! I never thought I'd spend over $300 on a blender, but it seemed like such a healthy TTC tool (and, hopefully, we'll be able to use it for homemade baby food). If you've been on the fence too, they're offering free shipping this month, which saves $25. My credit card also has a 5% cash back offer for online purchases in December, so that helped a bit too. The one I have coming is a refurbished Vitamix 5200. Please, please, please be worth the money!

Blog Hop! Link Up Your Faves

It's the final weekend before Christmas. Are you ready? Perhaps you have things that you should really be taking care of before wasting time online. Yeah, me too. That said, I'm looking forward to reading everyone's posts! (And, if you would be so kind as to comment on a few posts, letting the blogger know you found them through LambAround, that would be greatly appreciated. It can be your Christmas gift to me!)

Blog Hop/Link Up Party

Any snow where you are?

Wedding Dress Shopping Is Not My Thing

We have just a little over a month left and everything is almost done, with one very important exception - I still haven't found a dress! I've only had 3 years to look! Would it be weird to call off the search and just wear something else?  Too bad I can't just throw a dress I already own into the washing machine with some bleach. Geez, there are some UGLY wedding dresses availible! So far I have tried on dresses that were too sparkly, too poofy, too itchy, too big, too small, and even TOO SEE-THROUGH! Honestly, who is buying these hideous dresses?

Time for a Blog Hop

Anyone get the entire holiday week off?

Blog Hop! Link Up! Yippee!!!

Have a fun weekend, everyone!

Blog Hop for Friends, Fun, and (Bloggy) Celebrity Status

We're just a day away from seeing David Sedaris at Popejoy Hall! YIPPEE!! Also, you know that novel I've been diligently chipping away at? The one I've been neglecting this blog for? The novel that's been keeping me awake at night, constantly churning away in the background of every little activity in my life? Yeah, that one. It's had a major development snafu. The ending is now the beginning, which means everything I've written leading up to the old ending (everything) is no longer any good and I no longer know how to end my story. Yaaaaaay! Welcome to another Not "Baaad" (get it?) Sundays link up. There are 2 things that make this blog hop special: 1. This Linky is open to all posts that you are proud of. Did you recently post about a great decorating project, craft, or recipe? That's wonderful if you did, but just fine if you didn't. 2. Do you ever find yourself trying not to duplicate posts on blog hops but aren't quite

Blog Party! Come Join the Fun

Sexy Nerd and I are off to the East Mountain Celebration this weekend. They had me at 'petting zoo'! Is there anything fun happening in your town? We're big travelers. If you tell me, maybe we'll run into each other at next year's event. Have a great weekend, my bloggy friends! And now...
