Hello all my followers!!

Hello guys! Just wanted to share my new fashion blog www.alilbitofarroyo.blogspot.com ! This is for all you budget shoppers! You can always look cute on budget!! So come check it out and let me know what you think!

Hello to all! I haven't been here for a long while so I thought I'd stop by and share my new venture with you all! If anyone is looking for some awesome skin care products I have the thing just for you! I'm real picky when it comes to skin care products and serioulsy would not back anything up unless I see results. With that being said I have found the perfect line and that would be Rodan and Fields. Dr. Katie Rodan and Dr. Kathy Fields, the creators of Proactiv® Solution, launched Rodan + Fields Dermatologists to extend their vision of bringing dermatology based skincare solutions to everyone! It was the number one skin care line when it was being sold in Nordstroms. If you are interested in any of our products or if you would simply like to read about our products you can do that at aarroyo1.myrandf.com. You could also become part of my team! If you have any questions feel free to email me at aarroyo1@myrandf.com! We have something for every skin type!

I hope everyone had a great Easter! It was pouring here in Dallas but we tried to make the best of it and had the egg hunt inside. =)Well I haven't uploaded my pics from Easter just yet but I would love to share some from my babies 2nd birthday. At first I was thinking about doing an owl themed birthday party and then I thought no I want something different. I started to ask myself questions as to what she loved and then I remembered she LOVES donuts so there it was a Donut Themed Party!! Haa! She absolutely loved it. I got to working and googling and trying to come up with a color scheme and BAM we got it all done. I made her cake topper and Tania from Totful Memories custom made her invitations, water labels, birthday banner etc... She was such a pleasure to work with! I hope you guys enjoy!


My birthday girl and myself being silly!


Yummy, chocolate covered marshmellows!


Donut seeds idea I got off of Pinterest!


I worked so hard on her cake topper! I made one for her first birthday so I just had to make one for her second!


My whole table set up! Maybe I should go into event planning?!?

AWESOME GIVEAWAY!!

AWESOME KARTELL CHAIR GIVEAWAY!!



Ok, guys so Mrs. Limestone from Brooklyn Limestone is having a wonderful giveaway today!! It's the Kartell chair! YES, I said the Kartell chair but for kids! I have been wanting to get my hands on one of these for my room but since our budget doesn't allow us to right now I have put it off for a while, but hey maybe Brooklyn can have one in her room if we get lucky. It would work perfect right now that I am transforming her room and especially b/c it's going to be have a boutiquish style theme!! Loooove it!

So the BOYS head off to training camp .....

So the BOYS head off to training camp and I sure am super excited!!! I love me some COWBOYS FOOTBALL and I just can't wait for the first game!!! YES, we are HUGE fans that my hubby even went to Texas Stadium auction the last few days it was open and came home with a pylon?!?! What is a PYLON?!?! HAA! Well here goes a picture of one



and here goes my sweetie with his!! HA!



Well anyways he paid a pretty good price for this lil thing (although extremely heavy) but to him it was well worth it since it came right off the turf! LOL!! He even made this nice looking star that he puts out on our yard every Sunday unless of course it is a Saturday game!! HA! Anyways, LET'S GO COWBOYS!!!


My lil one right before the season kicked off last season!

Congratulations Alysia!!

Yesterday was my girlfriend Alysia's babyshower and man was I impressed. My other two girlfriends Erica and Mary did such a wonderful job! It was a candy theme so I loaded up on the candy!!! LOL! Especially the lemon heads!! My gift to Alysia was a diaper cake along with a frame (of course)! Here go a few pics from yesterday!

Thank you Connie & Danica!!

Goes to show Tutu's are not just for lil ones!! Danica here graduated high school this past May and told her mom she just had to have a tutu! I loved this chica from the moment I met her!! She is so sweet and fun and a future star!! Can you believe she even wore it to school?!?! For those of you who live in the Dallas area you can see her work now until August 2nd. I've attached a flyer with all the information! So anyway, thanks to you and your mom! Congratulations on getting accepted to UT Austin!! GO LONGHORNS!!

USA vs Mexico

OH NO!! Now it's the United States against Mexico! May the best team win!! I wish I could find a soccer jersey that would have half of the USA team jersey and the other half of Mexico's jersey! LOL! Well I'm in the middle so I really can't say who I'm going for. My sisters and I did take a cute picture with our Converse (which I wish I had in every color)! Mine are in the middle and Annette will have to get some blue ones to replace the green. I stayed up till midnight lastnight watching Costa Rica get beat by the great team of Mexico so yeah I'm a lil off today! Yes, I do keep up with soccer but primarily b/c of my father and my lil bro. They are big soccer fans! Have a great weekend everyone!!

Hello Everyone!!

I know lately I've been taking my time blogging but I've just been so busy reading other blogs!! LOL! I've come across tons of wonderful blogs that I enjoy reading. I'm also in the middle of working on more tutus, tutus, tutus! Another thing I am in the middle of doing is re-doing about 50% of my house! Now you can see how busy I have been lately!

OK, so let me start off by saying that I came across Casey O' Connell (a super dooper wonderful artist)

through Jennifer from MadeByGirl in one of her postings back in June. Jennifer always has some nice postings and I love her work as well, I actually ordered two of her cards for my girlfriends birthday! Now back to Casey, I reached out to her and she is one of the sweetest people you'll ever meet. After exchanging SO MANY emails I ended up with But We Don't Dance!! This was a gift from my daddy who I simply adore!!! He is the best! I just got it this past Friday so I haven't been able to get it framed and hung on my wall but as soon as I do I will take pictures!

On another note I also came across Jacquelyn. She is also a sweetheart! I commented on her blog how much I loved her work and that I got some wonderful design tips from her since I am in the middle of transforming Brooklyn's room from a baby room to a big(lil) girl room ..LOL! I told her I wanted to do a boutiquish (if that's even a word) type room with pink, black, damask wallpaper and a chandelier. This morning I had the nicest reply from her telling me she would be working on a special design just for me b/c she couldn't resist the temptation to style such a cute room ...those were actually her exact words!! On top of that she asked for Brooklyn's initials so she could design a custom monogram just for her!! Now tell me she's not a sweet person!!

Alright it's time to say goodbye and I thought I'd leave you all with a beautiful picture I took of my little one with my father on 4th of July as he took her for a walk. I love to get shots like this so I take them every opportunity I get.


Awww!
