Double-Wedding Week

The weekend of February 7th unttil February the 13th I was in snowy Utah. February 7th was the day my brother got married and it was truly a blessed union. My brother found this fantastic girl who suits him so well. I love how Danielle brings Eric out of his shell and makes him feel comfortable in any situation. We are thrilled to have her in our family, you rock Danielle. Here is a pic. of the handsome couple. My awesome cousin Jess took this picture.

I wish I had more pics of the day, but I totally forgot my camera...boo! The temple sealing was incredile and Eric and Danielle were given great advice. The reception was held downtown at the Gallivan Center and it was so amazing. Instead of flowers Danielle had sparkly branches as decor and it was amazing I wish I had some pics to show. It was seriously one of the best dance parties I have ever been to. I have never danced so much in one setting! The DJ rocked it up.

Heather and I stayed for the next week awaiting yet another blessed wedding from one of our best friends from college! During the week Heather and I seeped in as much time with our older sister and two nieces because they had just moved from Cali back to Utah. Tears were definitely shed! Here a couple pics of the little gems!

Here is a pic of Camryn and Kennedy playing store. Cam's obviously was the cashier and Kennedy was the shopper!

Look at that face...priceless!

We also had a Valentine's tea party and made sugar cookies. Kennedy was quite the little helper in the kitchen and helped make the frosting and even more she wasn't shy with decorating the cookies...they were fab!




We also had the opportunity to meet up with some college friends...it was so fun to see them! Ali just got an internship in New York...so awesome and Kerianne is going to Botswana for research...so cool!
I love Kerianne's laughing smile...seriously awesome!
Last but not least is the wedding of DeEtte and Jason Carver. It was so fun to be there for DeEtte. She looked stunning as you can see! Heath and I were able to steal some precious moments away from the busy bride to talk, hang out like the good ole days. Here are a couple of pics from the great day! Oh and isn't Palmer the cutest boy ever. such a handsome dude!


Here is a pic of another tea party we had in downtown Salt Lake....called the Beehive Room. It was so fun getting in some time with all the sisters before I came back to San Diego.

Academy Award Gifting Event

This past weekend I had the great opportunity of helping at an Academy Award gifting event. It was so much fun, Erika and Christy also came and we had a blast together. The head coordinators of the gifting event was kind enough to let me pass out my product for free when every other vendor had to pay $10,000-$15,000 for a booth! We sure did luck out. It was located at the SLS hotel in Hollywood! We saw some b-lister stars overall it was a blast. Here are a few faces I was able to snap a shot of with True Birds accessories!


Here is Annalynn McCord the star of 90210, she is also rumored to be in "New Moon" the second book in the Twilight series. I had the opportunity to escort her around to all of the different booths. She was so sweet and nice and had the cutest accent, she was from Atlanta, GA. It was so fun to see how real celebrities are. I guess I was expecting them to be arrogant or something but I did not meet one person of that nature!

Here is Tony Dennison from "The Closer", with Keira Sedgewick. I also had the opportunity to escort him and had fun getting to know him...it is amazing how open he was about his life, he talked about his girlfriend, and his relationship woes he went through with his last girlfriend. He even asked some advice as to what products his current girlfriend would want. It was funny to because he went to another gifting event Heather was at and said he recognized her and Heather asked him if he went to "The Secret Room Gifting Event" and informed him that I was there and that we were twins. He was so nice and told me he would personally gift a True Birds accessory to Keira. What a stud! This girl had to be my favorite of the day! Her name is Holly Fields and she was such a joy to be around Christy and I co-teamed and escorted her around. She was a guest star in a couple of episodes of The OC. But she is mostly recognized for her voice overs, she has done voice overs for stars such as Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore to name a few. She was newly engaged and full of life and a charming personality!


This is Kim Coles, she was such a fun lady and hilarious as well as she is both an actor and comedian.
Last but not least is Melissa Farman from this season's Lost. She plays the young Danielle Rousseau and I completely recognized her as she walked through the door because she was on a recent episode of Lost. She is one multi-tasker she has been involved with acting along with going to school full time...what a go-getter.
We all had a blast and when we left one night Erika said she saw Nathan from Heroes. It was so fun for the weekend, but I do not know if I could handle living there the LA lifestyle is so busy all the time.
