Every time you turn around, there's a new holiday popping up like National Compliment Day celebrated on January 24th or International Dot Day celebrated on September 15th. But who doesn't LOVE a reason to celebrate? I sure do!! And one of those grand times for me is EARTH DAY !! I've been celebrating Earth Day since I was about 7 years old and each year, I execute some action, whether big or small, to contribute to protecting the planet. Earth Day is an annual event celebrated on April 22 each year. Worldwide, various events are held to demonstrate support for environmental protection. First celebrated in 1970, Earth Day events in more than 193 countries are now coordinated globally by the Earth Day Network. Additionally, many people also celebrate EARTH WEEK and plan activities throughout the entire week to celebrate nature and our beloved planet.

HEY ALL!!! How are all of you fabulous ladies? Seems as though I let the blog die as soon as the realities of wedding planning became a reality. I've been married now for exactly 1 year, 3 months, 15 days, 9 hours, and 46 minutes!! I am super excited to come back to the blogging world and see how every has been doing. I plan to blog here at least 2-3 times a week and I will start by recapping my wedding. Thanks for being apart of my Perfect 10 world and I am honored you are along for the ride!! So much has happened...... Let's catch up!! Blessings,

REPRINT from my other blog - ORIGINAL POST DATE 10/15/2008 This is my first time ever blogging and I think I'm going to love it. I am a creative spirit and write as often as I can. There is something very special about the ability to express ones self in words. I hope this experience will open the door to many months of fun and friendship as I plan my April 2010 ceremony. I also hope to gain some insight as I have deemed myself a DIY bride, along with relieving any stress that tries to creep my way as I attempt to plan the wedding of my dreams (on a budget, of course). Wish me luck!!! .............. and many blessings to each of you!

Hey ya'll! It's New Years Day and I'm sitting on the sofa with my FH watching music videos. ( I know I said I wouldn't post anything new today but I absolutely can't contain myself since this is the first time in about four months that there is positively nothing written on my calendar for me to do today! Whoo Hoo!) So, I really hate watching music videos because I am convinced that it slowly kills your brain cells but there is something sweet about being able to watch them with my FH. Actually it's kind of turning out to be a somewhat intellectual experience because we are able to discuss some of the trends and sociological effects of what we see (the sociologist coming out in me) on the videos. Anyway, since I'm half watching and half on the computer I figured this would be a good time to post a little something about my love bug!! I'm more of a bullet point kinda girl as opposed to the paragraph type so I'll highlight ten random fact about my ...
