Honeymoon Ideas

In one month, Joel and I are going on our Honeymoon.  Right now it is the light at the end of the tunnel, for what is the longest month of the year for us at work.

Paris

We will be spending six days in Paris, France, then six days in Marbella, Spain, and then one long overnight layover in London, England.  So, the question is what should we do???  We have never been to any of these places and want it to be a trip we will never forget!

Marbella

If you have any ideas or feedback please share!!!! Please, please, please!

CharitySub

The holiday season is a time for giving.  While we are working on finding the perfect gifts for our friends and family, why not also think about those that are really in need.   

CharitySub is a monthly subscription for donating to charity.  Each month they choose an important cause and choose three organizations that support the cause.  They send you an email explaining the cause and what the three organizations focus on.  Then you get to choose to which of the organizations you will donate your monthly contribution.

It is a small subscription fee of just $5 a month, thats only $60 a year to make a difference.

November's cause was Down Syndrome, and some past causes were HIV, Domestic Abuse and Oklahoma Tornado Aid.

Check out their website to find out more information and to sign up.

Here are some beautiful tablescapes that I find incredibly inspiring...

I cannot wait until I have a tablescape of my own to show.  Until then, I will keep dreaming...

C. WONDER Gift List

From the first time I walked into a C. Wonder at the mall, I was obsessed.  We were shopping at Garden State Plaza and it had just opened.  They had a DJ at the entrance, the employees were all dancing and I wanted to buy just about everything.  It was so bright and colorful and FUN!

Although, my plan is for lots of cool colors in my new house with lots of silvers and greys, I still keep getting pulled to everything GOLD! I am going to have to find a way to incorporate it somehow.  Check out some of my favorite gold gifts for Christmas from C.Wonder.

Bathroom Tiling Update

Here is an update on the progress of our bathroom.

Shower before tiling..

My uncle from North Carolina came up two weekends in a room to tile the bathroom for us. Thank god for him, because we had no idea what we were doing!  After he was done tiling the whole bathroom, he showed Joel how to do the grout.

Here is Joel hard at work...

Here are the tiles we selected:

Jeffrey House Stratosphere Blue Pencil Glass Wall Tiles from Home Depot

American Olean 4in x 8in White Gloss Ceramic Tiles from Lowes

Merola Tile Moldura Tile White Ceramic Pencil Trim Tile from Home Depot

Soft Dreams Beyaz Floor Tile from The Tile Shop

Still lots to do, but its all starting to come together!
