Oh.....and my hair keeps getting darker.

Hey ya'll!!Last week I was in Atlanta, GA at a conference/tradeshow for the event industry. My days were filled with seminars on event planning and design and at night I was able to attend these huge parties that were sponsored by the exhibitors. It was total sensory overload and a real treat for a small-midwestern event planner like myself! I saw these extraordinary galleries that were filled with so many beautiful tabletop designs and floral decor. I could not believe the amount of money that people actually spend on this stuff!! My mind was truly opened to tons of new ideas and it was very rewarding to be able to attend this conference. And I made some good contacts. Yippee!! The bad part about it was that it snowed in Atlanta for the first time in 2 or three years. Shocking. Any of you who know me are familiar with the fact that the cold weather does not make me real happy. I get mean in the winter. I was looking forward to the temperature increase, but not so much. It was cold and snowy and I was ticked. Oh well. Here are some pics from the show. Most of them are table designs. A lot of you may be totally uninterested in this, but I think they are pretty darn cool. Enjoy!!

We didn't do a whole lot, but we were able to take a few days off and head to Michigan for a couple days. Aaron got to spend some time with his family and hang out with his little niece Kaley. She's is about 19 months now and starting to recognize us a little. We don't get to see her much since they live in Maryland, so it is such a treat to spend time with her. It's crazy how just being around little ones makes Christmas so much more fun. My mom keeps begging us to have one but that isn't happening any time soon!!!! So for all of you who are wondering...wonder no more. Not happening. Since my last post a few things have happenned. I dyed my hair brown which is kinda huge. I've never in my life wanted or even thought of going dark, but winter depresses me so I thought my hair should match. I kinda like it. I'll probably do it again too. So ha!!! But we all know I'm a blonde at heart so when the sun starts to shine again, I'll be blonde as can be. I'm sure this is thrilling to all of you. Right now I'm watching a stellar movie: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Isn't Jack Nicholson great? Great performance. The nurse in this movie is such a witch. Geeeez!! Anybody seen it? If you haven't, you're weird. Go rent it. No really....go. Ok....I'm spent. Gotta get back to my movie :) I love you all....miss you too. Hey.......I really do!! Nighty night :)
