Opportunity Knocks!

Hello Ladies! Ok, here are the photos I promised! Since we are having an impossible time getting our internet hooked up and an even more impossible time "borrowing" internet from our neighbor's wireless, I've decided that I'll just post a picture or two each time I blog. It saves me the 25 minute upload time. The first is a picture of me sitting over the beach on a very large lava-rock. It was gorgeous. The second photo I actually took at this park when we drove the island. (by the way, I have NO idea why this is underlined...)

This turned out to be a really great week for me. As you all know, I'm now interning at Modern Luxury's Houston magazine. It's a really great publication and you should check out the website to see if there is a publication in your town. They mostly produce magazines in larger towns. Anyway, Thursday I went to a pre-party for a Monique Lhuillier trunk show. The store is this absolutely gorgeous little dress boutique called Casa de Novia Bridal Couture. While I was there I ran into the lady in charge of advertising and marketing and who is also publisher for the Houston bridal magazine. You would all love her, she's hilarious and so much fun! She asked if I wanted to tag along to another party at the Audi dealership -- and of coarse I did! The party was a blast! She's one of those people who loves to introduce people so it was great hanging out with her. She's a "connector", like Jill from RHNYC.  HAHA! I absolutely loved her. She introduced me to tons of people, including the editor-in-chief and publisher of our magazines who I had yet to meet. It was all-in-all a really great night for me. I'm really trying to be as involved and aggressive as I can and hope that one day this can turn into a career.

Today, the hubs and I are headed to south Mississippi to check out some beaches and just hang out. I'm sure it'll be fun! Since I'm back and forth to Houston so much, I've really been slacking on the blog front. I'll try to be better. I have to post this last picture. This is Macee when we were driving from Houston to MS yesterday. She is so funny, she was having the hardest time getting comfortable and was trying to sleep everywhere!

By the way, whoever you are from Crystal Springs -- you should totally comment! I drive through your town twice a week!

XOXO,
