Disneyland, QVC, Project Runway and more....

This pretty much sums up my 3 day weekend. Mark and I took Friday off and went to Disneyland. It was nice to be there without the weekend crowd but it was REALLY REALLY hot. It really sucked the energy out of the both of us by the end of the day. Mark was a trooper going from ride to ride with me....I know he was getting really tired by the end of the night even though I wanted to go on more rides.


We went to Napa Rose for dinner and it wasn't as good as I had remembered. My food was lukewarm and the soup I got tasted like it came out of a can. Needless to say I was quite disappointed.

Saturday afternoon, Mark and I caught up on some Project Runway episodes. On one of the episodes, they had to create an outfit for Diane Von Furstenberg and the winner would get their outfit made by Diane and be part of her Fall 2008 collection. Leanne won and made a gorgeous long silk dress. Mark said I should get it because it would be a rare item (limited quantity to be made). I showed my sister the dress and she said that the dress would only look good on really tall people. She said the shape of the dress is "picky" and I would have to try it on first. I wish I could try it on first but I can't! So I'm still debating whether or not I should get it. Although Mark will probably say that my opportunities are way gone.

Sunday morning.....I was flipping through channels and happened to stop on QVC. They were showing some jewelry by Tacori so I was interested to see what they had. I normally don't watch QVC but I was sucked in because they said that after the Tacori special, they were going to be debuting a Hello Kitty jewelry line that is made just for QVC. I've been wanting Hello Kitty jewelry for some time now because I love Hello Kitty and the jewelry pieces are way too cute and EXPENSIVE. So when QVC said they were going to debut their Hello Kitty line, I just had to wait and see what they had in store. I was sucked in! I was thinking they were going to have a few pieces but they ended up showing quite a few items and most of them were way too cute and the price was way too good to pass up. I was a frantic woman calling QVC to put my order in. In the end, I was able to purchase a few things and two of the items I wanted are on the wait list. Here are pics of what I got (both purchased and on waitlist). I can't wait to get them!!! Super cute items.
Oh...and the Hello Kitty debut sold out in 45 minutes. It was madness I tell ya.



We got all of Sasha's proofs back today. Mark and I will need to see what the best options are. There are too many pictures we both like so we may end up getting the Photo Box that will come with 50 5x7 photos. We were originally thinking about getting the Coffee Table Book but we'll see. Sasha isn't feeling so feel right now and Mark is gone for a week. Her stomach is bothering her so I have to keep an eye out tonight.

I've been dealing with a couple of investigations at work that has taken up a lot of my time and mental strength the past month. I'm looking forward to going away in a couple of weeks and getting some much needed time away from work with Mark.
