I got you babe!

Hello darlings!! I hope you are all doing well!! I have been having so much fun this weekend. Friday night was girl's night out. We had a great time downtown. I did not do so hot on my diet that's for sure. It was not my fault that they ordered some amazing jalapeno spinach dip. Yum! I did order grilled shrimp tacos which weren't SO bad for me. I also like to think that walking around downtown for a couple hours counteracted the calories.

We also had a blast at the pop personality party last night! I got to meet Lady Gaga, Toni Braxton, Beethoven, Jennifer Lopez and Olivia Newton John!! I spent about 2 hours doing Lady Gaga's hair and makeup. It was worth it though. Check out the pictures!







It was bittersweet because we had a great time but it was also a farewell party to my sister who is going back to Korea for a year on the 21st. I should be used to it by now, she has been traveling most of my life, but I think it gets harder the older I get because we have gotten so much closer. She is an amazing teacher to the children over there and I truly think that teaching them is her calling. I just want her to be happy! Okay, enough with the mushy stuff. I decided to go with the 70's Cher. My dress was a little shapeless but I think it was the perfect colors.









I don't know that I completely captured the whole Cher essence...but we had an amazing time anyway! I can't wait to spend today relaxing! I was going nonstop yesterday. You know I had to make cupcakes! They were requested by Lady Gaga as her going away cupcakes. Chocolate cupcakes with a chocolate toffee buttercream frosting. Of course I'll share the recipes I used very soon!






I also visited my friend in the hospital to see her new baby boy, Brody. He was so very precious. Unfortunately, he slept the whole time I was there but I could tell with the way he smirked at me that he was going to have an awesome personality. Look at this! Isn't he adorable?!





I hope ya'll are having a wonderful weekend so far! I would love to hear about what ya'll did! Enjoy your day!!
