We had such a great time last night at the Elle Decor- Bloomingdales - Apartment Therapy Big Window Challenge event! Dave & I woke at 5 something AM, loaded the kids in the car, and headed up to New York to celebrate Eddie's big WIN at Bloomingdales! (We dropped the kids off with our family in New Jersey before heading into the city.) I'm still pretty bleary-eyed from that lack of sleep so I'll tell you all about it & post pics on Monday. We did have a beautiful dinner with Eddie & Jaithan, Mrs.Blandings, Deborah Buck, and {from Elle Decor}: Matthew Talomie and Margaret Russell. We met lots of amazing new people who are so incredibly passionate about what they do and I just loved being around them.
Everyone was super-sweet and inclusive. I was totally nervous/ freaking out about meeting Margaret Russell (Mom & Grandmother- she's the Editor-in-Chief of Elle Decor Magazine ;) and she couldn't have been nicer!! (And yes, she's just as graceful & gorgeous in person as she is on TV & in pictures, if not more so.) But more details on Monday. Congratulations To Eddie & Jaithan on a HUGE win for Elle Decor!!
On another note, I'm insanely excited to tell you that Better Homes & Gardens is coming to shoot our house!!
It's a Christmas story so it'll be in the 2010 holiday issue. They're doing the outside, the entry, living room, dining room, kitchen and us. (I'm a little worried about the "us" part, as I have an extra 30 lbs on me right now from the pregnancy and when I see pictures of myself right now it looks like a "me" inside of a "me." So I'll need to either get over it or wear a sign that says "JUST HAD BABY." Think they'll mind?? ;)
Anyway, since we're travelling & have so much to recap on Monday, there won't be a formal Pure Organization Project for next week, but personally we're working on time management & figuring out our schedule like we talked about in Time (Or Lack Therof.) I'll post the readers' projects I've received later in the week. Have an awesome weekend!!!
xoxo,
lauren
