Such an enlightening Day!
June 8th 2010
Today was the first round of voting ad my good friend Scott Taylor was running for Congress Va 2nd District. The polls are now in and Im devestated that only 9% of active voters went out to vote today. I have to be honest that before this year I truley didn't know how much my vote meant. I have followed Scott through his entired campaign and it has been my pleasure to support him. He has a great heartand really wants to address the issues. Let us please take this as a lesson to not take for granted our rights to vote. use your rights! You can make a difference even when you think you can't.

Hey guys! Ben a while since I gave you an update on the poochie and he is doing great! He goes for his Therapy Dog certification on May 8th so wish him luck! I decided to have his groomer come over to give him a puppy cut; bless his heart he is so dark and had so much fur that he was panting while sitting in one spot.

Meeting Carmen Dianne
April 5th 2010
Greetings Fashionistas! This picture is from my personal camera taken at Rob's bday bash last week. The gorgeous young lady Im standing with is Carmen Dianne or Carmen Thomas as some of you might know her as well. Be sure to check out her website as she has an awesome makeup artist portfolio. One rule of thumb I always say when choosing a makeup artist or hair stylist...see how they present themselves. It will give you a great idea of the work they may be able to produce. It was great meeting Carmen, her spirit lights up the room. Check her out at www.carmendianne.com!

A Lex Update
Jan 16th 2009
I haven't given you all an update about my pooch lately. Mamy of you have been able to meet him as he has become my right hand in my traveling. Lex is such an amazing dog. He has really come into a great place and you'd never know he once was trapted in an aweful puppymill! My heart really goes out to all the animals that have suffered in that way and still are. Lex just celebrated his 1yr bday. Nothing to crazy but we did get him specially prepared Connolli's made for doggies after all my family is half Italian :). The pictures above are some great sneek pics of Lex at Christmas, with his best bud MJ and also some bath time of course!

Loving LegLovers!
Jan 2nd 2010
I just finished a crazy schedule of four days straight as a vendor at this years USA Dance NYE Event. This event has been happening for 19 years in our area. Daily workshops are held along with night parties with different genres of music every night. I was so happy to be at the event as one of its vendors. So much has happened in such a short period of time with my line so this was a real treat and I feel very blessed. Thanks to all the ladies who purchased my product and are loving it! You see one of the lovely performers above wearing our pure onyz LL's with her costume and flyffy slippers lol. No matter how you wear it thanks so much....truely a fabulous dream come true!
Playdate anyone?
Jan 1, 2010
How did you guys spend your NYE? My good friend Shalimar recently organized an event here called Playdate. Playdate was created and has been taking other larger cities by storm! The setting a large ballroom typically in a convention center or hotel type setting. They then set up all your favorite games on each table since childhood i.e monopoly, uno, connect four etc. I am the UNO QUEEN! (if I do say so myself LOL) I won 3 out of the 4 games we played. I had a blast! and the really neat thing was I ran into a lot of my students there so I got to bring in the New Year with them. I enjoyed you guys! Now back to work!
A New Year!
Good morning you all it is a new year! A new decade and I woke up this morning a little excited about it. I am so happy to be able to see a new year and blessed for all that it holds. What does this year hold for you? I feel for me it's going to be a year of transition for many things. I'm glad you all get to share that with me here at MB.com! Thanks for all your support. Just wait! You haven't seen anything yet!
