There is no logical reason for this stress. Its almost like My mind subconsciously knows brides are supposed to be stressed and obliged without even asking if it was OK with me! anyway, I think it will be loads of fun for all of the family to get together and hopefully enjoy ourselves. My best advice to brides out there. just relax! its not going to be perfect and that is just how weddings go! now if only I could take my own advice!<br /><br />Soon I will be starting a blog based on the journey taken while launching my skincare line, black sheep skin care. stay tuned!Bonnie and Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04921286314134869866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5052462129492860277.post-19599891790907107122010-05-06T19:29:00.000-07:002010-05-06T19:30:24.973-07:00pretty inspiring!<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Gc4HGQHgeFE&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Gc4HGQHgeFE&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>Bonnie and Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04921286314134869866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5052462129492860277.post-63549680243162074402010-04-26T09:17:00.000-07:002010-04-26T09:28:13.146-07:00crispy me!Yesterday was really productive.

Audie Holloway, head of the troopers, said in a statement.</p><p>The dog, whose good deed was caught on a patrol car's dashcam video, received a stainless steel dog bowl engraved with words of appreciation from troopers for his "diligence and assistance."</p><p>The dashcam video shows Buddy meeting the trooper's vehicle, then dashing to the Caswell Lakes property on April 4.</p><p>According to troopers, the dog and owner Ben Heinrichs were in a detached workshop when a heater ignited chemicals. The 23-year-old man ran outside to put out the flames, closing the door to keep the blaze from spreading.</p><p>Heinrichs then realized Buddy was still inside the burning building and let the dog out, but suffered minor burns on his face and second-degree burns on his hand. Buddy was not injured.</p><p>"Buddy, we need to get help," Heinrichs told the dog, who then ran into the nearby woods and onto Caswell Loop Road.</p><p>That's where Buddy encountered the trooper, Terrence Shanigan, whose global positioning device had failed while responding to a call about the fire. He was working with dispatchers to find the property in an area with about 75 miles of back roads.</p><p>Troopers said Shanigan was about to make a wrong turn at an intersection when his vehicle lights caught Buddy. The dog eyed the trooper and began running down a side road.</p><p>The video shows Buddy occasionally looking back at the patrol car as he raced ahead, galloping around three turns before arriving in front of the blaze, which was very close to the Heinrichs' home. What came next was not caught on the video, but troopers said Buddy jumped up and down and nudged Shanigan as he approached the workshop, then darted into the woods.</p><p>From there, the trooper guided firefighters to the scene.</p><p>The workshop was destroyed and a shed was heavily damaged, but only some window trim on the house was scorched.</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end(name=article) --> <p id="hn-distributor-copyright"><span>Copyright © 2010 The Associated Press.

I'm glad we have cleared that up! It couldn't just be that the earth is shifting and the tectonic plates are rubbing together?!?<br /><br />If you want to look into it yourself I got this at:<br /> http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/apr/19/women-blame-earthquakes-iran-cleric<br /><br />Article to follow:<br /><br /><div id="article-header"> <div id="main-article-info"> <h1>Women to blame for earthquakes, says Iran cleric</h1> <p id="stand-first" class="stand-first-alone">Women behaving promiscuously are causing the earth to shake, according to cleric, as Ahmadinejad predicts Tehran quake</p> </div> </div> <div id="content"> <ul class="article-attributes no-pic"><li class="byline"> Associated Press </li><li class="publication"> <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/">guardian.co.uk</a>, Monday 19 April 2010 16.00 BST </li><li class="history"><a class="rollover history-link" id="history-link-byline" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/apr/19/women-blame-earthquakes-iran-cleric#history-link-box">Article history</a></li></ul> <div id="article-wrapper"> <p>A senior Iranian cleric says women who wear revealing clothing and behave promiscuously are to blame for earthquakes.</p> <span class="inline"> <img src="http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/About/General/2010/4/19/1271689047121/Iranian-woman--001.jpg" alt="Iranian woman " width="220" height="310" /> <span class="caption" style="width: 220px;"> An Iranian woman waits for the bus under a poster of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Photograph: Behrouz Mehri/AFP/Getty Images </span> </span> <p><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/iran" title="More from guardian.co.uk on Iran">Iran</a> is one of the world's most earthquake-prone countries, and the cleric's unusual explanation for why the earth shakes follows a prediction by the president, <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/mahmoud-ahmadinejad" title="More from guardian.co.uk on Mahmoud Ahmadinejad">Mahmoud Ahmadinejad</a>, that a quake is certain to hit Tehran and that many of its 12 million inhabitants should relocate.</p><p>"Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which increases earthquakes," Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi was quoted as saying by Iranian media. Women in the Islamic Republic are required by law to cover from head to toe, but many, especially the young, ignore some of the more strict codes and wear tight coats and scarves pulled back that show much of the hair. "What can we do to avoid being buried under the rubble?" Sedighi asked during a prayer sermon last week. "There is no other solution but to take refuge in religion and to adapt our lives to Islam's moral codes." Seismologists have warned for at least two decades that it is likely the sprawling capital will be struck by a catastrophic quake in the near future. Some experts have even suggested Iran should move its capital to a less seismically active location. Tehran straddles scores of fault lines, including one more than 50 miles long, though it has not suffered a major quake since 1830.</p><p>In 2003, a powerful earthquake hit the southern city of Bam, killing 31,000 people – about a quarter of that city's population – and destroying its ancient mud-built citadel.</p><p>"A divine authority told me to tell the people to make a general repentance. Why? Because calamities threaten us," said Sedighi, Tehran's acting Friday prayer leader. Referring to the violence that followed last June's disputed presidential election, he said: "The political earthquake that occurred was a reaction to some of the actions [that took place]. And now, if a natural earthquake hits Tehran, no one will be able to confront such a calamity but God's power, only God's power ... So let's not disappoint God."</p><p>The Iranian government and its security forces have been locked in a bloody battle with a large opposition movement that accuses Ahmadinejad of winning last year's vote by fraud.</p><p>Ahmadinejad made his quake prediction two weeks ago but said he could not give an exact date. He acknowledged that he could not order all of Tehran's 12m people to evacuate. "But provisions have to be made ... at least 5 million should leave Tehran so it is less crowded," the president said.</p><p>The welfare minister, Sadeq Mahsooli, said prayers and pleas for forgiveness were the best "formulae to repel earthquakes. We cannot invent a system that prevents earthquakes, but God has created this system and that is to avoid sins, to pray, to seek forgiveness, pay alms and self-sacrifice," Mahsooli said.</p> </div> </div>Bonnie and Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04921286314134869866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5052462129492860277.post-65111963262517697002010-04-21T09:20:00.000-07:002010-04-22T13:50:53.590-07:00So close!I woke up this morning and realized that yesterday there were only 60 days left until Nick and I get married. that means today there are only 59 days until we get married. before you know it there will only be 30days and so on!

We went and ate at viasniors (which I probably spelled wrong) all you need to know about it is it is a Mexican restaurant. Of course Nick dad told them that it was her birthday so at the end they put a sombrero on her and we all sang happy birthday, the kids sang as elderly people. then we tried to use a $25 off coupon and they added a $22 gratuity. we thought that was interesting. anyway..

Its been very busy. Since the last time I blogged I have paid for a wedding cake ( layers are lemon, chocolate and Bavarian creme, and vanilla bean with raspberry) , made a down payment on flowers, made a down payment on rentals, got my dress fitted, purchased dresses for bridesmaids and flower girls, decided to go with color families instead of specific colors. Still working on invites and time is running out.<br /><br />things tat I have done that are not wedding related? I have done a lot but the most important is Noni's ( Nick's grandma) Surprise party. It was a lot of fun and Nick and I played "Zombie Apocalypse" with the kids when they got bored with staying inside.<br /><br />Nick is still looking for a graphics job that is not free lance. He is keeping busy with side jobs though.<br /><br />until next time!Bonnie and Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04921286314134869866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5052462129492860277.post-72293288165715688572010-01-20T11:48:00.000-08:002010-01-20T12:02:26.767-08:00cooking.as my wedding day approaches I realize how poor I actually am. something that I have been looking for is a cookbook, something along the lines of healthy eating on a budget. I haven't been able to find one so I am thinking about experimenting as I go and making my own cookbook. my first recipe is cake balls. its not really healthy but they are super good and pretty cheap.Bonnie and Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04921286314134869866noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5052462129492860277.post-25865458236088291612010-01-18T18:45:00.000-08:002010-01-18T18:49:08.177-08:00Bridesmaid dressesPicking bridesmaid dresses is the thing I hate most about wedding planning. you have to find that "perfect" dress that will fit all body types, is in the right color, fits the budget, and in this case is also very modest. Having a really hard time with it... going to talk to nick and see about changing the bridesmaid dress color.Bonnie and Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04921286314134869866noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5052462129492860277.post-60440725388564031852009-12-14T10:17:00.000-08:002009-12-14T10:29:10.744-08:00AVATAR!I cant wait to see this movie!<br /><br /><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/cRdxXPV9GNQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/cRdxXPV9GNQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>Bonnie and Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04921286314134869866noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5052462129492860277.post-13548888959304704052009-12-08T08:36:00.000-08:002009-12-08T08:46:55.613-08:00Creepy Santa!When you think of Christmas you think of the jolly old fellow that brings presents to all the good girls and boys.<br /><br />Nick found a site full of Santa's that would be considered creepy.

Something most of you don't know is that I told him long ago that If he didn't ask me proper I was calling the whole thing off! Well all things come in there own time.<br /><br />Yesterday I was talking to Roger (Brother in law) on the phone about vitamin D supplements and out of the blue Nick started "herding" me to walk a different direction. I told Roger I needed to go see what Nick needed. Its not every day he tries to herd me.<br /><br />Nick told me he just wanted to go for a walk with me. So we walked down the gravel road talking <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">randomly</span> as we often do on our <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">walks</span>. I stopped to play with the goats down the road. on our way back he spun me around and told me he had something he wanted to give me. I was pretty sure I knew what it was. He kissed me and told me that was all ( hes so cute when hes <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">nervous</span>), I thanked hm. then he pulled the box out and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">told me</span> he had been <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">carrying</span> it around all day. Nick got on his knee in the middle of the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">gravel</span> road and asked me if I would spend the rest of my life with him. I hugged him and cried. Nick asked me again, just to make sure It was a yes I'm sure.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://artcarvedbridal.com/images/ArtCarved/02-ARTCARVED-31-V105DRD-E_XL_D.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 250px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 250px; CURSOR: pointer" border="0" alt="" src="http://artcarvedbridal.com/images/ArtCarved/02-ARTCARVED-31-V105DRD-E_XL_D.JPG" /></a><br />Nick then told me a few of the plans he had to ask me. one of them was that he was going to send me on a state long scavenger hunt including places we have been together. the other was to ask in the middle of the engagement <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">picture</span> shoot. although either of these would have been fun, I like that it was more personal, doing something we like to do.Bonnie and Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04921286314134869866noreply@blogger.com3
