That is so funny that it plumps up your Mii. FI and I both really want this game but don't have an extra $90 laying around... boo

Thats great! I remember when you were talking about this awhile back. Kuddos for going through with it!!!

Happy Anniversary Ann & Paul!!!!

I don't even know what to say, Rachel. This is infuriating. Definitely keep us posted on what's going on. I hope she gets some solid answers soon, I feel so sad for her. She must be so scared, I am so sorry

They are stunning! I agree that once they are all in the same color it will def "flow"! Wowzers, can't wait to see your pics!!!

Wow, now that's a good turnout! LOL Looks like a blast Amy!!!

Where is the Manny's in Dallas located?

I've never heard of Manny's - do tell...

Luckily mine was scheduled with plenty of time to take a shower between now and then. Oh and I also got my tan on last night - of all the times I've done Mystic Tan I messed this one up! I didn't put the shower cap on so that it exposes my hairline so I have a lovely white streak (a halo as FMIL nicely put it ) just below my hairline. Been putting Jergens on it like crazy. Hopefully it won't be so noticeable by the time I have to go into work tonight Quote: Originally Posted by thomastaci22 Happy Early Birthday!

I work from 6a-3p, and then will be spending the rest of the evening at team camp with the high school team that I coach...woo hoo! Sorry you won't be able to enjoy it much - don't worry, I'll have a drink (or 2) for you tonight!

Ok, Ok, we'll let you off the hook... this time.. mwahahaha

Thanks to my wonderful FI, we will be celebrating my Bday today with friends (my actual bday is on Tues.). The day begins (eek, in 15 mins, I'd better hurry up! lol) with a relaxation massage down the street. Later we are all meeting up at the gallery we work at for a drink and some cake (yum!). Then, since we'll all be dressed up, we're headed over to the Ritz Carlton for more drinks. Not sure what the plan is after that. I love birthdays!

Right now it's: Jaime Lisa Rachelle Sandra Christina Karma (TheFutureMrsB) If we have more girls add on then we may need to move to a location that's either A)not as busy on a Saturday evening or B)Takes reservations. What do you think?

Ok, cool - the 19th it is then!! "Girl's Night Out in Uptown"

UGH I seriously could have killed him....moral of the story is...I know how you feel tonight! crazy dogs! aye yi yi... silly dogs!!! Oh and BTW, Ollie just "went" and it was normal!!! Praying that *SOMEHOW* we made out like bandits... still keeping that diaper on tonight tho

Hahaha, ok I think you've got us beat on the 35 chocolate covered easter eggs. Although I did have a dog once that at Thanksgiving when everyone was in the kitchen managed to eat an entire rum cake.

Quote: Originally Posted by LALA I'm trying not to laugh but I'm picturing him eating pasta as fast as possible. If it makes you feel better our big dog eats rolls of toilet paper when he gets mad at us. It is a very clean poop to pick up though - it's straight paper. Our friend's lab ate a bag of bird seed this weekend and was pooping seeds all weekend. Dogs are weird. Laugh all you want! I was trying so hard not to as I was screaming at him. That look in his eyes was priceless, and it really was funny that me screaming at him just made him gobble it down even faster. We've had all sorts of things come out of our dogs - the funniest was when Ollie ate his stuffed animal and we had to pull a green frog out of his behind. That was not pleasant - for all parties involved.

Our little Dachshund Ollie just ate 2-2.5oz of Gourmet Chocolate. I just got off the phone with our vet who said he'll be fine (he would need to eat about 12 oz for his body weight in order to be concerned). Basically he's just going to have diarrhea out the WAZOO! Arrrrrgggggggghhhhhh So I went from very worried about our poor little guy to very PO'ed at him! LOL He is the best dog (has had professional in house training, house broken, etc.) but if you take your eye off of him for 1 minute he will find anything and everything he can to eat! There have been times where I am coming down the stairs and he is up on our table eating the rest of my pasta, all the while I'm screaming at him to stop and he's looking at me out of the corner of his eyes knowing he's in deep sh!t but he just starts eating faster thinking it will be worth the punishment. Unfortunately he doesn't connect getting really sick and eating these things. We never feed him "people food" because we don't want him to be a begger so his stomach is extremely sensitive. He is now in a diaper. I can tell he knows he's in trouble because he actually let me put it on and he's not messing with it. Poor thing, he looks so degraded in it! lol OK just had to vent a little...

Any updates Celina??

Okey dokey .... Rachelle and Lisa, does the 19th of July work for you two?

Also, let's see how many of us and our FI/DH's will be in attendance and then I can try and narrow a place down that can accommodate us.

Is up to you girls, Mark can come with me but if the majority of FIs and DHs stay home then I can come solo. I guess we can also throw July 19th out there. (Anyone know if I can add onto a poll??) Otherwise, it looks like July 12th is taking the majority. I don't want the date to get too far out there because stuff will always come up - I think we just need to pick a date and stick to it! Silly Dallas girls, it's tough to nail us down!

What to wear I would try to wear solids, I know that white, tans and blacks photographed the best. If they take full body shots, you can lean on one side a bit and put your arms around your waist, it'll make you look slimmer. Other than that, just smile away and have fun with it. I'll have to come by and check out your new gallery. Where is it going to be? Sandra, the new gallery will be located on Dragon Street. Not sure if you've heard of it but it's where all the galleries are moving. The opening probably won't be until Sept-Oct but I'll def let you know! Anytime between now and then, if you're out and about on a Friday evening (6-9) come and check out our current gallery at 2925 Fairmount St. 75201. Look for the Tiki Torches SOOOOOOO, about the photoshoot - it was a no go Apparently Samuel couldn't make it. Oh well. My Dad and Phil will definitely still be in it though! I will post the article as soon as it comes out They are planning on doing shots of the 4 of us at another time, so thanks for all of your tips ladies!!!

As soon as I feel prepared, I'll definitely let you know and see if you guys are still interested. (oh, and the third aboretum shot you mentioned---- I chuckle because a friend of mine calls it my "monet". hehe) We would LOVE to have some shots taken there! We had actually planned on going there for some E-Pics but the weather was yucky. We're kind of bummed with our E-Pics because the photographer kept telling Martin to grab my a$$ and make out with me so now a lot of our family doesn't want our pics up in their houses even though artistically they are pretty freakin' cool... That said, some "normal" shots would be wonderful! And yeah that one of the waterlilies definitely reminds me of Monet - probably why I like it so much! The colors are great too Archs.doc

Yay for Geminis! Happy Birthday Sandra!!!!!

Happy Anniversary, Tammy & Cain!
