Mega-life change post!

I know it has been about a LONG time since I have updated but there is good reason!

1) Josh and I got married! It was wonderful! It was at the Loch Haven Center in Orlando, Florida. All of our friends and family came from far and wide! We had a great time! We went on a mini-honeymoon to Saint Augustine, Florida. It is so beautiful there. In May, after Josh's foot is 100%, we are going to London. Once we receive all of our pictures from Matt (the photographer) they will all be available on www.JoshandShelby.com.

2) I spent a week and a half with my in-laws and new siblings in Traverse City, Michigan. It was really fun! I had a chance to bond with my mother-in-law, Maureen. She is such an amazingly sweet and kind woman. They threw a birthday party for me and Maureen took me thrifting! :) I got a chance to hang out with Josh's best man and his awesome girlfriend, Brandon and Kristina. We went to dinner, bowling and I went to church with Kristina. I also got to hang out with my FREAKING awesome sister-in-law Maggie. Check out her blog here: SuperSavvyMommy.com.

3) I officially moved to Portland, Oregon to live with my hubby! I've been applying for jobs, bought a car (since my car was totaled right before the wedding) and now I am waiting on our new mattress to be delivered. It has been a blast! It's hanging out with your best friend all of the time.

4) I am almost done with season 3 of Dexter. Haha!

Check out some pictures of life recently, in chronological order! If pictures are cut off, click on them for full view!

OH MY GOSH!!!!! 18 days!!!!!

There is only 18 days until the wedding. My dress went from being too small to being too big but it's going to work. Has to.

Sunday we had a centerpiece-making-party and we banged it out! Thanks ladies! However, I cannot feel the tip of my pointer finger from spray painting... STILL! Weird, right? Sensation in my fingertip is irrelevant because the centerpieces look so AMAZING!

I've been eating only veggies and fruits, no carbs, no dairy with the exception of organic salad dressing and coffee for nearly a week. It is crazy what that amount of vitamins does for you. About 95% of the time I feel invincible but I did cheat and have a piece of birthday cake for my Grandpa's 80th birthday last night and I felt as if I would die! My stomach decided it wanted to kill me! So I am starting to really realize how bad high fructose corn syrup is for you, which was present in the icing apparently. That is the only thing that I could think of that would have effected me like that! Or maybe it was just that amount of sugar after being withdrawn from it for a good while.

I cannot wait to see my husband-to-be in 13 days in Orlando because we are GETTING MARRIED!!! AHHHHH!!!! I am so excited!!!! YAYYY!!!!

New salon, new hours, new way of paying!

I recently moved to Salon Elysee in the Plaza building downtown (165 S Orange Ave, Orlando). This salon is really nice! Like, REALLY nice! I am working in the salon three days a week (Thursday, Friday and Saturday) but I am still available for special events (weddings, photoshoots) seven days a week! Unfortunately, because of this particular salon I am only able to take cash or check, made payable to me.
ALL of my prices have remained the same and I am still doing all of my own booking so give me a call at 321-276-1407!!

I will be available starting on the 6th from 10-6!
