The comcast gods have smiled upon me.

We have finally moved and I L_O_V_E the new place. It really feels like home and I cant wait to finish decorating it (It's almost there). Pix to come later...

Steve has started working full time and although he is exhausted, he really likes it and is glad to be getting paid, lol! 
I am still looking for a job and have had no luck thus far, but I know something will come along.

Graduation and such...






So I never posted anything about graduation and the party. Everything went rather smoothly, except for the EXTREME humidity that did quite the number on my hair for the day. I thought at the ceremony I would get all choked up about leaving school and friends, but the truth is I was relieved and in such a rush I didn't have time for really anything. 

Here are my grandma, my mom and I...i miss them already


My brothers and I...


My excitement to see a Tiffany's bag...


Steve was so excited to see this gift from my family...


Last but not least, the result of my graduation cupackes....they were yummy!! (ignore the half eaten cake lol)


The party was fun too, and everyone was so generous with their gifts. We are so grateful to have such great people around us and families that love us. Now we are packing and getting ready to move on Monday- god how time flies. It seems like it was just yesterday that we were moving into this place and embarking on the adventure of living together. Now it is time to start our lives..(AH!)

The closet...

So we are moving in less than 4 days and I have decided to make the walk in closet my own personal haven... the one i have always been dreaming of with lots of color and a seat and a vanity. With my tiny budget, it will be fun to see how much bang I can get for my buck. In the meantime, here are some closets that are drool-worthy...

Shopaholic, check. lots of shoes, check. 


Carrie Bradshaw's closet. Enough said.


Kimora Lee Simmons. Glam and HUGE>>



Ok, I dont have this much room, but ohhh it looks like a store...


Eva Longoria's closet. Love the rich tones and library feel with the ladder.


I dont think I own this many pants, lol.


D_I_V_I_N_E !!!!! Maybe I should put my computer in the closet...what do you think?


Ok, off to bed, much more to blog about later.

In the FUNK....

So lately  have been in a funk, not wanting to make jewelry, not wanting to blog, not really wanting to do anything at all. I think it is the initial shock of being done with school and not really having a game plan for my future...ohhh man, it just a weird place that I am in right now and I am trying to get out of it. Still no job prospects, but we are moving into our new place in 12 days! wooo! Graduation is on Sunday, I'm sure I will post pics, and my whole family is comming up on saturday, so I am very excited. 

Lots has happened in the last couple of weeks, maybe I'll post about it later. 

But for now, here are some great cupcake ideas for graduation parties...

Red velvet...my favvvv


Oh god they have it in my colors!!!!MUST MAKE FOR THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!

The art of living in a Construction Zone...and some weekend stuff too =)

So this morning was interesting to say the least. In our current apartment, they have started an 8 week project to remove the existing fan coil units in each apartment. 
While it is noble of them to want to be more energy efficent, us residents are constantly interrupted by loud banging and drills starting right at 8am every morning. 
Well, this morning, they decided they needed to come into our unit right at 8am. I set my alarm for 730 the night before but i didnt wake up in time. So I'm laying in bed and all of a sudden, I hear a loud banging and it is our front door. I wasnt dressed, so when I heard the banging, I ran into the bathroom and hid. 
I figured wh not take a shower while I'm in there, right? right. So I'm taking a shower and then I realize that me and Lex are going to the pool at 10am! So my shower was for nothing, I didnt get to sleep in, and we are living in a construction zone. ARG!!

Anyways, I have been missing out on telling you about my weekend, it was auctually really a great weekend. Friday we did our final review for studio, and my project critique went really well- it was very well received. (YAY)
Then Lex and I went to Mohegan Sun and saw Jason Mraz in concert! Ahh he was SOOOO good! I have a newfound love and appreciation for him. It was so nice because we also got to see my family for a couple of hours. We ended up driving back to boston at 1 am, and it was so fun. 

On saturday, me and steve made the trip up to see his parents in NH, stopping on the way to our new apartment in Peabody, MA. (see pics below). 
Saturday we took Steves brother Conner to dinner at Bugaboo Creek (yummy lodge themed restaurant) and to see G-Force (AMAZING MOVIE!!) After the movie, we got Coldstone and all went home and passed out, lol we are old!

Sunday, I went on my annual shopping run to Marshall's -for some reason the one in New Hampshire is soo great, much better than any other ones that I've been to. I got 2 pairs of shoes, a Michael Kors pink beach towel, a convertible dress, and new place-mats, napkins and curtians for our new apartment. Ah, retail therapy! Later, we met Steves mother at the country club for lunch and also had dinner with them. It was nice.
After all of this excitement, we came home and were so tired, we just went to bed, lol. 

So today, Lex and I are going to the pool, hopefully it will be nice and sunny for the whole day!
