Pictures from past times / weekend at the ranch

Pictures From Times Past
Finally a foot picture worth your while! It is Mine, Chebo & lisi's tradition to take a picture of our feet at a new or different place that we all are at, this was while we were goofy golfing!!! I heart it!!! :)

Me & Allysa GarciaAll night Chebo was snapping pictures of me while I wasn't looking, they turned out horrible! So I decided to give him a taste of his own poison! But I do rather feel he was posing on this one...Chebo would seriously marry this guy if they were both gay! He loves him but you know, he is a pretty cool dude! Kyle Tripp!!!Me & Chebo at one of our infamous karaoke nights! I just love this pic of us!!!

These are my two most favorite people in the world! Never a dull moment & always smiles, you guys are the greatest!! I'm soo excited to be a part of the family!!!

This Arizona summer heat isn't just torture on us humans, it's tough on the critters as well. After about an hour of running around, playing in the sun at the chicken yard, Dobby was downright tuckered and couldn't wait to get into the AC of the car. Even though he is half-chiuahua & shivers most of the time, the heat gets to him too! I've never seen him pant so hard/much!

Pictures From the Ranch

At the ranch there is a colt a few months old. He is just the cutest & most curious thing ever!

I tried to lure the young colt to me with some oats. This picture is really cool, I think.

Here is a young filly doing what she was born to do!

I tricked Chebo into riding the guard pony!

Chebo found a pygmy owl! He couldn't stop talking about it, he tought it was the coolest thing ever. I have to admit though, it is pretty cool!

Saturday night we saw Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince!!! OMG! It was WONDERFUL, AMAZING! I do believe that it is the best of the series so far. I found it to be more humourous than the others, & just like the books, darker.

Invite Ideas?

The first half of this post is mostly for my sister because other means of communication have failed due to dial-up internet and problems with my cell phone. However, everyone is welcome to indulge in it's contents.

I recently recieved a birthday party invitation from a friend. I am in love with it! i think it's adorable so I was hoping I could cowboy it up & use the same general layout for the wedding invites! So that's what I need help with, converting it to country wedding style featuring my chosen colors! And that's why I need my sister on this... she's a pro!! :) Of course, I am open to any other design(s) that anyone may come up with. Anyways, here's the front:

I'm wanting a pic of me and Chebo to be included on this, so I was thinking we could put it where the pink square that says "happy birthday 25th" is. We are planning on taking some engagement pictures soon, either while horseback riding, or in Tombstone or Old Tucson, so they can have some nice western flair! Also I found some little cowboy hat, boot, horse and horseshoe charms that may be a perfect replacement for the cupcake at the top but like I said, I'm open to ideas!! Those charms (seen at left) can be found at: http://satnspurs.com/product_info.php?products_id=205

By the way, this invite is 4.25 inches wide & 5.5 inches tall.

AND heres the back:

The back is pretty basic, I have to figure out the wording and it just needs to be westernized! Thanx for taking a look at the ideas I have and I look forward to hear what y'all think!!

This has nothing at all to do with wedding invitations, but Chebo & I went to see Public Enemies the movie based on a true story about John Dillinger (played by Johnny Depp), and other bank robbers during the Great Depression. & OMG we LOVED it, it was great but also very sad!

And also totally off the subject, I spent an hour at the pool today, & finally my legs are sportin' a barely there tan! YAY!!

Is Edwina on Holiday?

Happy Fourth of July! Happy Independence Day! Happy Birthday America!! :) Haha. Hope y'all had a good one! We didn't do much that day, just went to a friend's house to sit on the roof and watch the fireworks.

The next day, we went to Tucson to see a movie as a belated birthday celebration for me! :) We watched Ice Age 3 in 3D! It was fun and different! After the movie we went to eat at On The Border! YUM!

While at the theater, I saw a movie poster for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. Johnny Depp is playing the Mad Hatter! Although it's not set to come out until March 5, 2010, I already want to go see it. It's gonne be eccentric and colorful and a real treat for the eyes! it's also gonna be in 3D!

Pretty Flowers!

Friday afternoon, on a whim, Mom, Amber & I went to Tucson. While there, we decided to stop by Michaels because we knew they were having some sort of sale. We got various scrapbook items, but the most excitment of all was the flowers. All spring and fall flowers were on sale. Ultimately, it was concurred that we should take advantage of this 40-60% off sale to obtain items for the wedding! so we did. Heres a pic of what I came up with upon browsing through the selection. I quite like the way they all look together, although, this is my first time ever making any sort of flower arrangement, so i am missing vital pieces that would make it look more professionally done (things like leaves, and tiny small flowers & things to fill in the gaps). Other than that I'm happy with what I've come up with and am happy that I've started so early!
