Lets eat carne asada

My really good friends and I got together tonight at Wenddy's house for a BBQ. We are 7 friends that we have known each other since high school and we meet usually once a month. This time, 3 of our friends couldn't make it but we still met. Oh man.. the food was delicious! Wenddy was so nice to cook carne asada and ribs. Even though she almost burned the house down! :) We were there for about 3 hours. We had a great time talking, remembering old times. Yesenia is due in a couple of weeks, but I don't know if she will make it by the end of this week. She had a couple of contractions while we were talking. She is ready to have her baby girl, Yazmine! Thanks girls! I had a great time!

When I got home, my husband opened the door for me and... look.....


he shaved his beard! He looks .... different.. he said he wasn't going to shave until we had kids! I guess he is getting the point it was going to be for a while until we have kids.. haha.. I guess he just got tired. He looks good!
Love you!

Phoenix Open

So I receive this email from my dad with these pictures. George Lopez! You member.. haha.. God is so good. My dad's boss gave my dad and another worker free tickets to Phoenix Open. Free entrance, free drinks, free food free everything! How great is that! There were all kinds of celebrities and my dad said it was wonderful! They had a great time! How fun is that? I wouldn't mind free tickets to an event like this! My dad said that when he was taking a picture with Lopez, a guy said "That is beautiful" (he meant the picture) and Lopez immediately said, Beautiful, I dont think so! hahaha.. He said that everyone was laughing. George Lopez is just funny! Here are some pictures they took! Enjoy!

Lunch at Olive Garden

My mom, sister and I went to Olive Garden for lunch yesterday. We usually go out to eat a lot, but we hadn't been to Olive Garden in a while! It was Yulianas first time going there, and she loved it! She was busy looking at everyone at everything! In the first picture, I dont even know what she was looking at.

In this second picture, she was having her lunch while we ate! Apple Juice! Its so funny, she makes weird faces.

In this picture, her and I were having so much fun. She kept on laughing and talking!

Here, she kept on staring at the beautiful lamp above our table. I guess she had never seen a big lamp before! :) She has our eyelashes!

Happy Birthday Humberto!

Yesterday was Humberto's birthday (my sisters husband). Poor him, he got out of work around 8:00 P.M. So we went out to eat around 9:00. He turned 23! It was our family and then my husbands family that got together. We had a really good time.

Today was Maribel's baby shower. The baby shower took place at the hospital. She was hospitalized on Tuesday and they didn't want to cancel plans, so they just moved locations to the hospital. It was really nice. The party was in the courtyard. We had a really good time. Maribel is due on Feb. 28th, and I think she will be staying at the hospital until baby is born. Much blessings to you guys! Cant wait to meet you baby!

Ribbon Organizer

Yesterday I went to a few yard sales close to my house. I bought several items I knew would turn out to be great projects!

Two of the items I bought were a piece of old wood, and stainless steel knobs. Got them both for $1.50.

With a little help of paint, paper and ribbon... Look what it has become...

A beautiful funky cool organizer! I will be using it as a ribbon organizer but can be perfect to hang necklaces or bracelets! This is what I have been doing all weekend, crafts! :)

I have a quick tutorial guide to learn how to make it... Its so easy!

Go Cardinals!

We are all ready to watch the Cardinal's game even Yuliana! Look how excited she is! She is almost 5 months, and super adorable! I love her! I traded the headband a couple of weeks ago with another etsy member. I made her a frame for her daughters nursery, and she made me the headband and a beanie. So cute!

Weekend Project

I bought this item today at a yard sale I went too. Got it for only $1. It was dirty, old and not the most appealing organizer.

But..............

Llook at it now!!!! Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..... isn't it lovely? I love the color combination pink and brown!

I first cleaned the item.
Let it dry.
Spray painted "Espresso".
Let it dry.
Added a beautiful Bazzill paper flower and pink jewels, and this is how it turned out.

It will look great in my craft room!
