About time for an update!

Wow, where has the time gone? It’s been forever since I’ve updated… I still don’t have much to say, but since I got a little nudge from Shellie, I’ll fill everyone in on what’s been going on.

  • Honeymoon GiftsFor our honeymoon, we went to Disney World. It was sooo much fun! Since Bryan is a Disney employee, we got into all the parks free and half off the hotel. We had an awesome one-bedroom at the Boardwalk Villas - full kitchen, washer/dryer, full bathroom with whirlpool - super cool. But they charge for internet. On the way there, we missed our flight and had to take a later flight that stopped in Texas and ended up getting to our hotel room after 10PM. We had a lot of surprises when we got there though! Chloe and Princess AuroraMy family in Florida dropped off a ton of gifts, snacks, and drinks for us and of course we got a signed photo from all the Disney characters!
  • I got my right tragus pierced.
  • We went to Disneyland with the Chan’s. It was Chloe’s second time - the first she was terrified of the characters. She LOVED them this time! She was a little confused at first, but by the time we left, she was really excited. She gave Mickey “five” and talked about it for weeks after.
  • GizmoWe got a puppy! His name is Gizmo and he is a Cockapoo (mom is a Cocker Spaniel and dad is a Toy Poodle). He is almost 5 months old now and about 9 pounds. He’ll probably get to be about 15 pounds. He’s sooo cute and so fun to play with… but he can be a little terror sometimes too! He’s a baby though, and he’s learning fast :)
  • I’ve been trying to be somewhat crafty. I did some cheap screenprinting and I’m starting to get into embroidery. I bought a bunch of pattens from Sublime Stitching, but I haven’t tried them yet. I need some motivation/inspiration.
  • Chloe's 2nd BirthdayChloe turned TWO in September! She is getting better at sentences every day. She’s growing up so fast… We all went to Disneyland to celebrate. She loved it!
  • RIP Chippy Chan

This weekend we’re going to Disneyland for HalloweenTime! We’re going to be going much more often now that Chloe is getting older and loving it! She loves Mickey, Minnie, and the princesses. Since there is probably not going to be much to update, Happy Halloween, Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year! :)

PS. I still haven’t done the moulding. I hope to finish it by the end of the year!

We’re married!

We're married!Yipee!! Our wedding went great - we had a blast! In my eyes, everything went perfect, but I’m glad it’s over!  I can’t wait to go on our honeymoon at Disney World tomorrow.

Thanks to our photographer, Jen May, for capturing the whole day - she is the best!!

Mr. and Mrs. Martinez

Bryan and Dianna

It’s finally coming to an end… We’re getting married this Friday and then we’re off to Disney World :) Can’t wait!

Today my family from Wisconsin is flying in, so I can spend some time with them before the wedding. Tomorrow we’re off to Santa Barbara to finish up the cupcakes and some last minute things.

Happy New Year!

I can’t believe 2007 is here… I guess time really does fly when you get to be an old lady! :) I have been too busy/lazy to keep this thing updated… here are some updates on what has been going on, new toys, and what is coming up!

Chloe’s First Birthday Cake and Cupcakes

Yesterday, my niece Chloe had her first birthday party! She is going to be one on 9/21 - wow, time flies!! Here is the mini-stacked cake and cupcakes I made for her party. The cake is actually violet (or periwinkle, as Emily insisted), but there was a blue cover over the party area, so there is a little blue cast to it all.  The cake was 6″ on bottom, 3″ on top, and was strawberry.  The cupcakes were chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry, and had hand-formed (thanks to Emily) fondant hearts on top.
