Our Christmas Tree is up!
I love our Christmas Tree, the only place it will fit is in the welcoming area in the front of the house by the front door. I love it! The process of putting it together was fun because I was just snapping pictures but Marco did an amazing job. It is pre-lit, and I have decided that the only ornaments going on this tree are ones I get as gifts from the annual Ornament swap.
Upcoming Trip to Texas
I am so excited! The Newbabies minus Thor will be spending their first Christmas together at the Lechuga house! We will be driving thru Albuquerque, New Mexico so we can see where I was born and hopefully enjoy our family road trip. Sollie and Fefe are going to be bestfriends! Mickey and I always talk about how we would still be friends even if Marco hadn't found me because there was an instant connection. She is my favorite and these two babies will be favorites as well. Clark Gable <3
I currently watched The Misfits with Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable, visiting my Grandma Luz yesterday I asked her if he was handsome in her day and her response will stay with me forever ha! It was like she turned into a teenager all over again and their love for each other was rekindled HA! Who thinks he was a stud? My Grandma Luz's wedding portrait I inherited is to the right, this is my favorite picture of her. Next must movie watch, Gone with the Wind.
I love to see my Granny with my girls, especially Marisol whose middle name came from my Grandma. My grandma just turned 87 in November, we share the most special bond that few understand but we both don't care. She can make me cry in a heartbeat just by hearing her voice. I adore her. Below is Sollie Luz trying to escape my Grannys hugs and kisses ha!
SHOES!
After seeing these cuties on my friend I had to order them on Target.com! they are so comfortable and easy to walk in. buy them here!
Harajuku Mini (Gwen Stefani's clothing line)
Sollie Bollie got a new jacket! She loves it!
Sephora trip...
sigh* I couldn't help myself on my recent trip to Sephora, I spent my monthly allowance to myself on all these goodies. Makeup Brushes, Urban Decay Makeup Setting Spray, Pore minimizer, Smashbox foundation and concealer. Using the Dew Me by Urban Decay has really let my foundation last longer throughout the day. Another tip I highly recommend is using a brush cleanser after every use of your brushes, keeping them clean keeps all that old makeup off your skin.
Christmas Wish List
Have a wonderful week!









i have been waiting for your Sunday catch-up!!!
ReplyDeleteyour tree is beautiful! I can't wait til you get Claire's :) she told me about them and they're perfect (just as i'm sure yours are to her-- which by the way i can't believe we didn't discuss ha)
I CAN'T WAIT TIL WE'RE ALL TOGETHER! (minus the baloney maloneys boo) I can't wait to squeeze my sollie girl, even if she "bites" me and gets mad at me. awww the words you said about us is so true and so sweet. I love us!!! and i can't wait til our girls play dress up and have tea parties... and then one day talk about the Clark Gable of their time!
awww picturing Grandma Luz falling in love all over again with Clark just warms my heart! I wanna meet her. i HAVE to meet her. That photo of her in her wedding dress is so special and beautiful. You know i have never seen "Gone with the Wind" either! i just told Chip that and he can't believe it because as he said, "Even I have seen it!" LOL i would say we should watch it during the holidays but you know the house will be way too loud. But maybe! ;) we can experience it together.
i have heels from target on my wish list : http://www.target.com/p/women-s-mossimo-viveca-blingy-heel-assorted-colors/-/A-14241871#prodSlot=medium_1_34
so pretty! but to be honest, i am not ready to do heels just yet. :)
Sollie Bollie's new jacket-- there are NO words. AHHHHHH smitten.
That is such a good tip about make-up brushes. I am embarrassed to say how often I clean them (read, i don't!) no wonder i have crusty skin. HA! i'm telling Chip i need some brush spray in my stocking.
i agree with monies (who called after seeing your tweet), that is a beautiful starter ring. :) i can't wait to stand by you on your wedding day as your Maid of Honor. ;) LOL
LOVE YOU!!! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU!!! and your two beautiful girls <3
I know! why didn't I take a picture and send it to you ha! I think because I didn't listen to your rules so I was scared haha!
DeleteYES! let's save Gone with the Wind for Christmas time! I am sure we will be spending lots of time near the TV and in our PJs :)
I need my Grandma to meet you. You both are so special to me I would be in heaven with both of you. She loves Marco and last night she told me he was so handsome.. I said like Clark Gable handsome? haha! she giggled.
*sigh my starter ring. haha Yes, I cannot wait either and of course you will be right next to me my fav!
xoxo love you so much Mickey!
Grandma Luz is PRECIOUS! I can just imagine how your heart melted when she called him handsome <3 I love her already! and you always.
Deleteps. we'll be in our pjs, near the tv and mommy mommy will be trying to feed us constantly. :)
I absolutely love your blogs!
ReplyDeleteI love to see how happy you are!
Thank you vanessa! xoxo
Deletewhat adorable photos! and those shoes are really nice! unfortunately i can't wear heels because they make my feet hurt :(
ReplyDeleteKathy you should try using some padded insoles for heels I have seen them at Walgreens. :)
Deletethank you!
This is going to be the best Christmas ever! I can't think of a better gift than having my beautiful babies here!! I can't wait to see the girls. The last time I held either of them they were just born! It's crazy how much they have grown since then. Even when I look back at pics of Bribri I am amazed each time at how much she's grown into a beautiful young lady! I hate missing out so much on their lives, but luckily our family is SO good about keeping in touch through family texts and FaceTime! I can't wait to feed Sollie Bollie her baby cereal and watch her jump :) I've watched that video like twenty million times already :) SO adorable!! Those little girlies are the love of my life!
ReplyDeleteAww your grandma Luz sounds like me when I talk about C.J. ;) I can picture her gushing over him :) I adore her wedding photo! How special you have it! <3 I have never ever seen a film by your fave Marilyn Monroe! We'll have to add her, Gone with the Wind (haven't seen either!) and Mean Girls to our movie list when ya'll are here :) haha
I want some booties just like the ones you ordered from Target!! SO cute!! I'll have to check them out. And Sollie Bollie's new jacket is PRECIOUS!! Your little fashionista! She's so girly and fancy.
I'm still smiling over our tweets about the starter ring on your Wish list! I always love looking at wish lists. Yours is SO you! Seriously, a starter ring for you would be the best Christmas gift for ALL of us! <3 I'll drop my brother hint hints ;)
Aww the girls by the Christmas tree. Such sweet sissys! I spy a seahorse ornament ;) Love it! Love you xo
Monies! when I brought Clark up it was the cutest thing me and Marco looked at each other and laughed haha. If only she knew what the internet was she would be Pintersting pics of him too. haha
DeleteI will make sure to take the movies! I can't wait to watch them with you guys!!
I cannot see your blog anymore since I was blocked (ha!!) so i wish I could see yours! I am sure there is a nakey picture of CJ on there. hahaha
xox love you and Christmas will be here soon!
I looooooove that picture of your two girls! I'd say you made excellent choices with your allowance: shoes and Sephora are two of my favorite things in the whole world! As for Sollie and Felix . . . I cannot express my jealousy . . . those two are SO CUTE TOGETHER and I insist we facetime while all of you are in the same house! Sollie's big smile and Felix's shark fin hair . . . omg. They're darling!
ReplyDeleteFefe does have a shark fin! haha isnt she the prettiest little shark ever. Too bad you cannot be with us during Christmas we will make sure to facetime!xoxoxo
