Mid Week Randomness!

I miss my blog so I had to post today! I recorded a vlog over a week ago, I've been fooling around with it, trying to figure out the best app for my new iPad to edit it with? I want to vlog more, I also want/need an easy way to edit and post...I'll get there soon!

I plan to simplify, streamline and organize my entire life in 2012! I'm going paperless!! I am in the process of scanning all of my important documents so that I won't have paper cluttering my world. I don't function well in a disorganized space lol! In order for me to take my design business to the next level, organization is key!  In case you missed my 2012 vision board post, check it out here!

I'm also now blogging from a different app! I have been using BlogPress on my iPhone for almost a year now. From time to time the app would have issues but I remained loyal! Well I decided to pay and download the iPad version...FAIL! It has bugs that continually causes it to crash! The app on my phone is also crashing with the iOS 5 software update! I'm highly irritated and pissed off! Well this new app has more functions but I'm still getting used to it. So I apologize in advance if some of my posts look a little funny O_o

I cannot believe Christmas is only a few days away!!! I absolutely LOVE the holiday season! I never typically ask for anything specific but this year I did ask for a study bible (mom & stepdad bought and sent it over a month ago) and a heart rate monitor (honey paid for this). The iPad 2 came unex

I also received a pair of uber cute gloves and a crystal elephant (my manager), a $25 gift card to Target (office party raffle) and a $25 gift card to Pappadeaux (one of the docs in my group)! All this and it's not even Christmas yet!! 

I totally get that this season is not about gifts, I scaled back my girl's gifts quite a bit this year. The doll house I bought is MAJOR so I'm sure they'll be happy no matter what! I have next week off as well and they are looking forward to me hanging out at home with them. I can't wait!

I've said this before but I've truly had the most amazingly blessed year! So many major life changing events, and so many people that have loved and supported me through it! Thanks followers, y'all are the bomb.com!

Boudoir shoot....SUCCESS!!!

Bright and early, 9:30 am arrived at the loft for my shoot. I read all of the content on the photographer's website prior to going so I had a fairly good idea of what to expect. First off they offer you a glass of champagne, which I declined because it was a bit too early for alcohol for me. I opted for water instead! Then they gave me a very pretty robe to put on before I had my makeup done.

The makeup artist was very interested in what "look" I was trying to achieve. She listened to my wants and got to work. I'm always very skeptical of other people doing my makeup, outside of my cousin Dyani. I also must admit I was a little nervous about whether or not white girl Tiffany would know how to match the right colors to my caramel colored skin lol! She complimented me the entire time and told me I am already beautiful so I made her job easy...she probably says that to all the girls lol!

My makeup for the shoot!

Once she finished I stood up and took a look in the mirror, she did an amazing job on my makeup and gave me the exact look I was going for! From there it was time to change into my first outfit. Although I was putting on skimpy sequins and sheerness, I didn't feel nervous at all. Phil (the photographer) made me feel comfortable for the start. Two other ladies helped "style me" throughout the entire shoot. I felt confident and sexy the whole time! Time to change into outfit number two, still feeling like a HOT diva! Again the team coached me through the second round of shooting.

All in all I had a wonderful experience and I'd love to do it again! They do offer couples shoots, maybe next time my honey will join me! I cannot wait to witness his expression when he receives this gift.
