I think my Brides & Grooms are pretty great! I may be biased, so what, they are the best!

I’ve been wanting to make my packaging my OWN and it turned out perfectly. I wanted to give my Bride & Groom something that LOOKS great with their finished product.

Who doesn’t love opening pretty presents?

These gorgeous boxes came from DNL Photo Packaging

a small sampling of my favorites from their big day

Their DVD/CD with a Millers Accordion Card

They even have an option to order CD “hubs” and I loved that!

No… not this Office Space…

THIS Office Space…

YAY! I now have my very own space – and I LOVE IT! Before I had my own office, Derik and I shared an Office Space – and while I love him… I did not love the football and the gaming that was going on. I mean, I love me some football… But Derik is in 3 (THREE) Fantasy Football leagues – enough said.

We decided to move things around and decorate… there may or may not have been problems moving the desk – there was – and there may or may not have been any broken toes in the process – there was… but it’s finally finished!

I can finally have a photo of my HUSBAND and I – ON MY DESK – not piled under everything that became “Brittney’s Desk” – it’s really where everything got put!

There are tons of things in here that are new. I’ll definitely be blogging about each one individually… but for now… I just wanted to show you MY SPACE!

Hey there Tob!

So, some of you may have heard of Pinterest… and if not – YOU NEED TO HEAR ABOUT IT! It’s really an amazing thing. Truly. I think I was invited right when it was starting and I kind of “fiddled” (yes “fiddled”) around with it and all the sudden it has EXPLODED!

So, let me know if you would like an “invite” – feel free to email me … or you can request your own invite… but I heard that it takes a while? I think this got bigger quicker than they were thinking!

Pinterest is basically a “pin” board where you can keep and save ideas. They also have a handy dandy Pin It button you can add to your shortcut bar of your browser (ie, Safari, Firefox). Honestly, this would’ve been PERFECT for planning a wedding. So, Brides – take notice! I don’t know how many times I’ve emailed myself a link to go back to and read or look at – and I NEVER go back to it… this is a great way to keep everything in one place! So – check out some of my favorites…

Decor I Love:

Food I Love: YUM!

Sayings I Love:

Ideas I Love: things I would LOVE to do someday!

YOU can create your own boards of any kind… I’m kind of in love with it!

It took a while for us to narrow down a photo because they had SO many great ones… but we managed to do it!

Allison wanted to make a fun magnet that she could use for their Save the Date… I LOVE how it turned out and am LOVING her colors :)

It’ll be here soon guys!
