New Favorite Blog -- JL Designs

So the other day I came across this GORGEOUS wedding which I'm totally gaining inspiration from for my centerpieces and all other wedding day decor! It's JL DESIGNS which is based out of California. They do weddings and social events and just use clean, crisp, all around pleasing schemes to make these lovely settings come to life!

All pictures above are from the JL Design Blog and are some of my favorites!

The Special K Diet

In an attempt to knock off another 6-10 lbs I'm going back on the special K diet for 2 weeks. I did this early last summer and I think it was a major factor in a weight loss that I had then. I'm going to try it again. I'm hoping in combination with the "training" for the mini-marathon that has started recently this will be a good thing.

Doesn't this look Yummy?!? C'mon...you know it does! It's only 2 weeks. I know I can do it and then it will be on to other new things.

We shall see...

I guess you could consider this, along with the mini, processes in Bridal Boot camp.

I'm going to post every day! - Centerpieces!-

Good Morning Everyone (who doesn't read this blog)...

I've decided from this day forth, I'm going to post every day...even if it's just a picture. Preferably something related to the wedding, but you never know.

Today's --- Pretty centerpiece ideas that I'm thinking about. Here's a few.

I love this long stem vase. This would add depth to a table without blocking the view across which is a huge pet peeve of mine!

I love the simplicity of each and every one of these ideas. They are easy to accomplish and wouldn't take a florist to do! You could do it yourself with your own bridal team!

This is an absolute favorite of mine due to the rich colors and volume that this setup brings to the table! I love the alternative to just plain old tea light candles...they've now been lifted off the table and are done so with clear modern candle holders. Also an arrangement that you and your mother could do! :)

As the budget has been blown from day one I'm afraid, I'm a huge fan of DIY projects! Well, who am I kidding, this blog is titled Little Miss Martha, I've always been a fan of those kind of projects!

Hello 2010

Here's to a good year...can you just feel it?

Mike and I are both sitting on the couch - not talking, both on computers, Lex to our Left, Louie under the couch, with a movie finishing on the TV, breakfast on the coffee table, and the house feels like it's still wrecked from Christmas morning and we didn't even have the holidays here! I feel like I just cleaned up the house yesterday!

One big goal we are setting is training for the mini-marathon here in Indy. That will be a feat, but we are doing it together so it shouldn't be too bad. And oh yea, getting married. That will be one big deal!
My personal goals are to, of course, lose 10 lbs, try to keep the house cleaner, stay more organized, finish up this wedding stuff, finish reading more books, finish painting the house, finish landscaping the house, eat healthier and take better care of myself in general. We'll see how this goes.
