It's Been Awhile...

It's been a crazy few weeks but that means that we have been busy with lots of fun stuff! I'm so happy football is back and I'm currently undefeated in Fantasy Football.  I'm pretty sure that I just jinxed myself and it's going to be a throw down this week...Melanie vs. Jakub.  May the best man or WOMAN win.  Remember Jake, happy wife = happy life!

We have already been to a couple of Arizona Cardinals games this year.  I may bleed the black and gold but it's fun cheering on the home town team.  They're off to a great start despite all the obstacles they have encountered this year.  The Pro Bowl is going to be in town this February and since we're season ticket holders with the Cardinals, we received the rights to purchase our seats.  I'm looking forward to cheering on some black and gold!

We recently went to see Jason Aldean for the third time since he is in Phoenix just about every summer.  We thought this was the best that he has been.  Florida Georgia Line opened for him and they were equally as good.  It was unfortunate that we weren't able to see Tyler Farr since he was sick but it was a great show.

Staying on the concert front, I just recently saw Katy Perry.  I wasn't sure what to expect from her show but it was awesome.  She is an entertainer and it was way better than I expected.  There were lasers, dancing cats, prism glasses, and glowing dresses.  Definitely a must see!

One week form today, I'm heading to San Diego for a Girls Weekend with one of my best friends that I haven't seen since May 2013.  It's going to be EPIC and I know that between the two of us bloggers, there will be pictures upon pictures and some great stories to share.  I'll leave you with one tidbit until then...we're going whale watching!!


I hope you enjoy your weekend as I know that we will enjoy ours.  It's supposed to rain this weekend in the desert and I am super excited (who would've ever thought I would put that on paper?)!  I wish you luck on your fantasy teams and whoever you might cheer for in football...unless you're a Buccaneers fan. :)  Go Steelers and welcome back #92...it hasn't been the same without you!

Steelers Girls!

Birthday Boys

Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband.  I couldn't imagine a better partner in crime and best friend.  I wish you the best day and look forward to spending 100 more birthdays with you.  I love you forever.






Happy Birthday to my wonderful father-in-law.  We are so lucky to have you in our life and family.  Have the most wonderful day.

Obsession

It's been a crazy few weeks in our household.  Jake is officially starting his intense hockey schedule (which I totally don't miss) and that means more time to myself.  With this being said, I have dove into a new obsession hobby of jewelry making.  What girl doesn't like a little bling?  I also love the thrill of finding the beads...gets my creative juices flowing.  I am going to start selling some of it so if you are interested, let me know and I will get you some pricing.  I have some photos below (but everything have way more sparkle and bling in person).

These pictures do not do this one justice.  The green beads have a ton of sparkle I have a necklace in the turquoise butterfly.






This pink heart long necklace has a ton of sparkle and a super cute heart toggle clasp.







This necklace and bracelet is super sparkly orange with a hint of pink when it sparkles.







Multicolored stone bracelet and necklace available.
