So blessed! {photo heavy}

Ladies, my Bachelorette celebration was so much fun.  I truly am so blessed to be friends with people who went above & beyond to make it a special day.  I fought off tears several times and had to tell myself "get it together crazy, do you want your makeup to be ruined?!?"  Also, after a few drinks before leaving the hotel for Chelsea Handler I decided to lead the group in a prayer.  Note to self- do not do that again.  It was a sweet disaster that went downhill as soon as I uttered the words "Dear God".

Here are the after pics from after we finished getting our makeup done (out of respect for ourselves, we did not take any before shots):

I am a 19 month trauma-survivor and decided while I was still an inpatient that if I could stay positive and worked hard to get back to the best me I could possiby be, that this would be my reward. The salesman said the company is on a worldwide shortage and what they expected to sale for the year had already been surpassed.  I was instantly attracted to the Tivoli PM.  We were totally those people who took pics in store.  It was a big day for me, ok?! bahahaha!

Happiest girl in. the. world!

My beautiful bridesmaid, Cyd.  She is a beauty queen who got us into a fabulous suite at the Loews at Vanderbilt- we stayed in a suite that Mariah Carey previously stayed in.  Shut up!!
