Blaze of Glory

Not the song by Bon Jovi...the hubby almost set our house on fire...more on this shortly.

First, we all went out to dinner to celebrate our friend Qwan's birthday. We ate at Texas Roadhouse. My new thing is order a sweet potato instead of a baked potato. OMG they taste SO much better & apparently better for you anyways.

So after dinner we got home & the house was FILLED with smoke. Hubby left a pot of fabuloso burning.  His aunt lets a pot of fabuloso & water simmer on the stove top and it really does scent the entire house. Obviously it was a mistake, but it scared me to death. My poor Bebe could have been burned alive.  .

So now of course I am thinking about not only the fact that I could have lost my furry baby, but my home, and all of my important things like pictures and just documents. So I am on a mission now to get things organized, get copies made of things, and get my items stored outside of the home. You just never know. In the blink of an eye, it can all be gone!

Does anyone watch Toddlers & Tiaras? I don't mind beauty pagents for kids but that show takes it to the extreme. Who in the hell would dress their daughter as a freakin prostitute for a beauty pageant and think it's ok? Seriously! Be prepared to be amazed...




Yes... that cute little girl is dressed as Julia Roberts from Pretty Woman! 

Lord have mercy! 

That's all I can say about that without cursing like a sailor on here.

So what do you guys think of the new blog template? I love it! I've always loved grey & yellow together. If you are looking for a new design, for the cost of 0 dollars, visit the Cutest Blog on the Block! They have several designs to chose from!

*update on the bank robbers...it wasn't my bride's father! *whew*

Happy Fall Y'all!

What in the world happened to the warm weather? Yesterday I was in shorts & flip flops and today is was 62 degrees. I'm not complaining, I actually LOVE cold weather. I just didn't expect it to come so soon. Has the temp dropped suddenly in your city?

Love these fall colors!

This cool weather has me ready to start my fall decorating. I don't want to spend too much money on decor since I still need to invest in my everyday decor. Hubby & I decided that we were going to try & look for an art piece when we go to New Orleans in 3 weeks. Have I mentioned I am SO ready to go?

In other news, one our local banks was robbed & a police officer killed the 2 suspects after they drove away & crashed about 1 block from the bank. They haven't released the names yet...but based on the description of one of the guys, I am suspecting it may be the father of one of my recent brides! Isn't that awful!! I am praying it's not him. But if it isn't, it's definitely one of his co-workers based on the company said suspect works for. I'll update when they release the names. 

Here is an actual pic from the crime scene...

Tonight we're going to a surprise birthday dinner for my friend Qwan. His birthday is actually Friday, so to throw him completely off his sister decided to have a dinner party tonight. We'll see if I remember to take pictures. I have just been so terrible about pictures. I guess when you do it for a living you forget to take pics for yourself.

happy hump day!
