Project Runway

So I have been captivated by Bravo Tv's show Project Runway. I think i missed one episode somehow. By the way Thank all that is good in this world bc with the DVR in our house I would never see any show I like.
But ne ways last night was teh season fianle of Project Runway. A show in which these aspiring designers comepete in designing clothes. Each week they were given a challege to design a look or outfit. They then had very little money, and time to complete the challenge and face off on a runway show in front of the Judges. The judges Nina Garcia, Editor at large for Elle Mag, Michael Kors-umm hello The Michael Michael Kors label! (Hope to own a purse by him one day), Heidi Klum-host, supermodel and possibly one of the most beautiful women in the world. Tim Gunn-Chief Creative Officer at Liz Claiborne Inc (I hope I get to meet him one day!) And then a guest judge which ranges depending on the challenge. Challenges included design an outfit for a dragqueen, or outfits inspired by new york at night. There was an olympic design challenge and so much more. How could I not get hooked! Each week I was glued to the DVR to catch up on the show to see which designer I like best. I just love the show.
So last night the ladies were in the final three and showed their collection. Each were great but I knew that Leanne would win....just knew it. and guess what she did! woo! I like all the designs she put down the runway. The other contenders Korto and Kenley both did an excellent job too.
I enjoyed the show. I can't wait till the 6th season. Believe me it will be DVR'd. However as I was reading viewer respones they were very negative againist the winner of the show, Leanne. I think she completely deserved to win. The other two designers did a great job but over all I think the judges picked the right person to be the winner. I posted a few pics I loved from Leanne's collection.
Check out Bravotv.com to see the other designers who worked the runway.

Football, Bush Gardens, and my LP

I get so excited about Fridays. For starters its the end of the week, usually a long and exhausting one, but there is Friday night Football with the OHS Jags, and I get to wear jeans to work! Oh the little things in life. haha
Well today's friday football adventure is at Harnett Central HS and since I live oh 5 MINS away I can freely leave when the game is over and this trainer is home in 5 mins! not an hour or so later as usual! wonderful! I just pray that no one gets hurt, I really hate seeing my guys get hurt. I Also hope they win. We need a win. Our team just really needs that confidence a win brings. So maybe tonight will be better than it has been for them.

Tomorrow we get to embark on one of my favorite adventures once a year (usually) BUSH GARDENS! Yep going to ol BG with LP's youth group. Brooke (his sister) and Tyler (my pumpkin) are coming along and its going to be great. I love roller coasters. I'll have at least one freak out tomorrow. Probably on the way up to for the Griffin or apollos charit. The climb up just freaks me out. The idea that you are rising several hundred feet in the air to plumit back down at rediclous speeds is insane! The time going up is not thrilling for me, its more like torture. But Im sure teh roller coaster inventors and makers are thrilled by that thought. So to the rollercoaster makers....great job on freaking me out and then giving me 20-30s of amazing thrill! You rock.

Im pumped about the weekend! However one of the things I look forward to the most is being able to rest and spend a little more time with my husband. We are so busy during the week. Both of us have some much going on that by the time we sit down with each other its 9 or 10 or 11:00 at night. And even then sometimes I have homework, he has homework and stuff to do for youth group. So during the week our time is scarce with each other, so I look forward to the weekend when I can just hang out with him. I can't imagine not being married, if we were still dating I think we would never see each other!
I love my LP so much! We get to share our first Christmas together this year and we are both excited!
Life is so full of blessings and one of my top is my husband, I could not do what i do daily with out him behind me keeping me going.
So with that I will end. Its time to set up some Gatorade for football and go eat with the team Then tape um up and head on over to HCHS.

Have a great weekend! I know I will!



Me and LP at the first Campbell Football game in 58 years!!
