Wishful Wednesday

I wish...

I knew what to wear for out photography shoot on Sunday.

We are having our free photo shoot downtown around sunset.

I'm not sure what to wear though.

Any recommendations?

I'm trying desperately hard NOT to buy something new.

Please help.

p.s. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

p.p.s. This is my 200th post! [yay me!]

Wishful Wednesday

This Wednesday, I am wishing that this weekend goes well.

For the past two weekends, Mr. GrapeJuice and I have been looking at houses with our realtor.

I've found one that I like, and he's found one that he likes. However, they are two completely different styles.

The one I like is more contemporary and has great updates and features. The one he likes is an older home with great square footage.

We are going to view a few more homes this weekend, and I hope we fall in love with one of them.

Also, this weekend, I'm taking my mom, matron of honor {sister}, and my maid of honor {BFF} to see what I hope will be my wedding dress.

I wish I could look like Ivanka Trump on my wedding day.

Not only does she look absolutely stunning, but she also looks incredibly happy and at peace.

I can only hope that I look as perfect on my wedding day.

Wishful Wednesday

I'll keep this short and sweet.

I'm going to wish that you all have a wonderful holiday weekend!

And, I'm also wishing for 5 more followers!
I have something great in the works for a giveaway, but I can't do anything until you guys become followers.

Happy Holidays!

Wishful Wednesday

This Wishful Wednesday will be short and simple.

I seriously wish GLEE was not on hiatus!!

WHY?!?!?!

Stupid American Idol.

I was never a fan of you, and I really do not like you anymore.

period.

You have stolen GLEE from me until April.

how rude!

p.s. I'm only 6 followers away from hosting a giveaway!

Wishful Wednesday

From now until the end of the year, I'm going to wish that I had more time.

There is lots of work to be done!

But, I'm not complaining one bit.

I love my jobs and what I do. It is worth every minute of my time!

But, if we could squeeze in about one more hour into the day, I'd be quite a happy little girl.

My Wish

Over the Thanksgiving weekend, Mr. GrapeJuice and I went out on a date. We went to dinner with my parents at a restaurant names Jose's. It is relatively new, and we decided to try it out. It was quite good. They were out of some things, which made choosing a little difficult, but it was good none-the-less. All our plates were clean at the end of the meal.

After dinner, Mr. GrapeJuice and I set out to see The Blindside.

We've both been wanting to see it, and he owed me a movie date after he and my whole family went to see A Christmas Carol without me. I was not disappointed at all. I enjoyed every moment of it and learned some more about football. Mr. GrapeJuice swears he's going to turn me into a football/sports fan.

However, throughout the entire movie, I couldn't help thinking that I wanted to be Leigh Anne Tuohy. She was warm but got the job done. I absolutely loved her and the way Sandra Bullock portrayed her in the movie. Sandra just happens to be one of my favorite actresses because she is so versatile; she's made me both laugh and cry in a multitude of movies. I would love to meet her.

Essentially, my wish to day is to be like Leigh Anne Tuohy in life - passionate about life and always helping others.

Opportunity 1

Last week, I was contacted by the fabulous people at Wishpot.

If you haven't ventured over to the site, I totally recommend that you do.

Here is a little snippet from their website to give you some more information:

What is Wishpot?

"Wishpot is a free online service that makes it easy to save all the products you're shopping for in one place while enabling you to discover and share those fabulous finds with friends and family. Great for wedding and baby registries or just making your own wish list!"

How does it work?

"Wishpot lets you add products from anywhere on the web with the easy to install Wishpot Button. You can share items and lists with friends and family and they can reserve items for purchase. Once an item on your list is reserved Wishpot re directs whoever is purchasing the item to the site the item was added from or the site with the most competitive price for the transaction."

See?

Fun times!

And, I can now display the cute little badge below on my blog because they consider me a "Wedding Expert."

{talk about a self-esteem boost!}
