Pamper Yourself on September 20th

I am so excited about my upcoming Arbonne Party! I have been an Arbonne Consultant for almost a year now and this is going to be the best party yet! I just had to share. We are going to have hand and foot soaks, makeup consultations, shake and tea bar, and facials. I will also have my Floral Facelift products out as well. The best part is the free gift everyone will get.

Everyone who comes will get a glass of wine, hand mit, wash cloth, tea sample, chocolate mint chew, and a gift for Floral Facelift. If you bring a friend you will also get an additional gift!

We will also have lots of gift sets available. Come check out our adorable vintage tea sets. They come with the cup and saucer, 4 Arbonne teas and a silver tea spoon, all for just $20.00! They are such great gifts.

Floral Facelift also is having a huge Summer Clearance. I will also have my new holiday collection out. So don't miss out on these great deals and opportunities!

E-mail me if you want to come! Sharon.esparza@cox.net.

Happy Birthday Mom!

Tomorrow my mom will turn 60! My dear friend Colleen and I threw my mom a surprise party on Saturday night. Let me tell you it was a hit! She was surprised!

I came up with the idea of a Summer night in Paris theme. My mom is too special for that over the hill stuff. Besides she is absolutely gorgeous and looks nothing even close to 60! I decorated with lot's of glitter, vintage papers, flowers, Eiffel towers everywhere and used beautiful linens my dear Aunt Carol let me borrow from her travels in France. Let me tell you, they are nothing you could find at any store here.
I wanted to welcome everyone with the Summer in Paris theme. I had french music playing in the background. There also was a 6 1/2 foot gold glittered Eiffel tower for people to pose for pictures. That was so much fun. I dressed the children in french clothes with little french hats. They were the token "french people".

I turned my dining room into a french bakery. I hand stamped little white treat bags with Eiffel towers and filled each one with parchment paper. The dinning room table was full of treats to fill the bags with. I made Eiffel tower chocolate lolly pops, Eiffel tower cookies, we had Madeline cookies, lemon cooler cake and many more treats for everyone to take home. I think the bakery was a hit, everyone walked out with very full bags.

We set up a buffet in the back yard and also made several relaxing seating areas for everyone to just kick back and enjoy themselves. All of my mom's friends are such wonderful people and I enjoyed having all of them over. She was so happy to see all of them and my mother had a smile on her face the entire night. My mother deserved this party so much and it was such a pleasure to have it for her. Happy Birthday Mom!

They love dogs too in Paso Robles!

Here is a cute water fountian on the sidewalk for dogs. I thought this was too cute.

Lone Madrone Winery

Summer Vacation

I have not been able to post for a while since we were up in northern California for our Summer vacation. We had a great time. We stayed in Paso Robles. It is so pretty to see hills of green wineries lined with a gold backdrop of wheat fields. The people here were wonderful, they so graciously accommodated our two children. As my husband tasted wine we walked the properties and explored. Yes it was very hot however the beauty of it all made you forget. The Rotta winery was so nice. They took my 2 year old and 8 year old in the back (where the wine is made) to pet their dog. They just loved it. I must say the wine was awesome! Castro Cellers was gorgeous! They had a huge tasting room, wonderful staff and even offered my 2 year old grape juice to tase. It was so good we bought two bottles along with the wine my husband fell in love with. Last but not least one of my favorites for many reasons, Lone Madrone. This place has it all. They even have a nursery! I bought two scented geraniums there, I just love them. They have beautiful gardens and animals for the kids to look at as well.

I do think that this place is the next up and coming Wine Country that could beat Napa. I have now been to both. Paso Robles is quaint and not commercial. It is close to the coast and Hearst Castle, you can see so much while you are there! I highly recommend taking a long weekend and driving up the California Coast.

Check out my favorites on my website, I added the wineries to them! http://www.floralfacelift.com/
