End of July/August and a little of September

I had such an amazing summer. My London boy decided to stay for 6 weeks! The longest trip we've had together other then the 2 week trip I had in London in April.
We had a BLAST!
I had such a memorable time and was soooo happy to actually have my own room this time, no more $$ on hotels! From dinners, to water-parks, safari zoo, Vegas, VH1 awards taping, bowling, ...the whole time that stink was here I had a great time.I was even more happy when I was able to leave him with my family without any worries. It's still a crazy situation, but I know we'll figure it out and end up being together...I hope! While he was here my car got broken into AGAIN!!! Same exact thing that happened exactly a year ago. Thankfully he was there to fix it all for me :) I wish I can catch those a$$holes in action!...too bad my car needs a microchip key, geniuses.






















During this time I also signed on to create 8 bridesmaid dresses due by September 7th...8! So in between having an amazing time with my boy, I had endless nights sewing their beautiful dresses. I had a ton of help from my friend Cat, from college. I owe her BIG! I just went to the wedding this weekend and couldn't help but smile to myself, everything look great! Even my mom made the flower girl dress and the decorative pillow, over 40! It was a beautiful wedding and I was so happy to see the couple celebrating their love.

I also went to the VMA's on Thursday :) I managed to take my boy to LAX on Wednesday :( cry my eyes out until 9pm...and made a new dress from 9:15-2:30am! It was out of the same fabric from the bridesmaid dresses, a very simple baby doll sheath dress...and super cute! It was a lot of fun...but not really worth the 4 hour wait in the hot sun. I did enjoy seeing Drake aka Jimmy Brooks! 





After the amazing, memorable month...I'm back to working 8-5/5x's a week with no boy to go home to.

I've also just turned 24 on Sept. 21! I went to San Diego with the girls for the weekend :) and Disneyland after my birthday dinner at Benihana's!



 
 





 



This is my little "life" update...I'll post a few pics of dresses and adventures soon :)
