this & that

hello friendsies

I have my logo!!! The card business that I am starting is slowly falling into place. So far everything is going very smoothly. Right now I am taking the steps to get my business license. I had my business name filed at the santa clara clerks office last week, and had it published in the newspaper. Next step - getting my sellers permit! My lovely cousin Andrea is an AMAZING graphic designer, and created the most perfect logo I could ever ask for. I can't wait to get some things done now that I have that...

There is so much to do, I keep thinking what my friend Ally told me a few weeks ago. "One thing a day" It really works! When I get all of these ideas, and plans in my mind, sometimes I just need to remember to take it slow and enjoy this process of getting my business started.

Today and tomorrow I am working at my friend Ashley's photography studio/bridal boutique. It is the cutest little store, such a change from working at the office. Everyone who comes in here is so happy and excited for a wedding. Whether it is their daughters, friends, or their own wedding. I love hearing every tiny detail of how the planning is going. It is such a happy time in people lives and it's so awesome to be a tiny part of it. I can see how Ash must completely LOVE what she does. (if you don't know Ashley, she is one of the most talented people I have ever met, she did some pictures of me and Liz awhile back)

WOW how could I forget... BIG BROTHER 12 HAS STARTED!! so lame that this is my highlight of the week. But it is so much fun watching with Daniel's family. We get really really into it. Making guesses on who will be evicted from the house next, or who is a "showmance" (romance on a show) ...I guess big brother would be my guilty pleasure. I'm openly addicted.

On wednesday I will be going to Tahoe to visit my Mom, Step-Dad Jon, and sisters Hannah and Bella. I CANT WAIT!!! My mom is throwing Hannah a birthday party for her 3rd birthday next saturday. It will be so fun spending that quality time with my family. and duhhh I LOVE birthdays. :)

Not too much time until I go visit Liz in Hawaii!! Can not wait to see my BFF. I miss her!!!

I am so hungry. Time to go!

Love,
