Bad, Bad Blogger: Bringing You Up to Speed in One Post

Yes.... I must confess that I have been a bad, bad blogger.... If I am going to ever to fulfill my dream of becoming a Weddingbee Blogger someday; I will have to kick this habit really, really soon... :)

So here's how we are going to do it... I am going to bring you up to speed in one post! Yes, one post...this is not for the faint-hearted or the fast surfer... This will probably be one of my longest post ever!

What's new with me?

On the Professional Front...

Hmmm...well I started a new job! I actually started it on the 18th of January... I am working as a product manager with a huge, huge Fortune 500 company! I absolutely love it and it is truly a blessing! Here are a few shots from my first day of work! You gotta love a company that treats you like this!





On the Business Front....

Custom creations by M'Shonta has proven to be a very successful endeavor! Valentine's Day was awesome! Below are a few shots of the items that we created for Valetine's Day... We will be promoting Easter items really, really soon! I can't wait to share!


{Lover's Day Mugs}

{Mini-mailboxes containing Love Letters from God}

Baby Door Couture

Custom Creations by M'Shonta has added another element! Baby Door Couture! We will do customized framed layouts like the one seen below and they can be hung on the hospital doors shortly after the birth of beautiful little baby boys and girls! All the customer will have to do is snap and picture and print it and place it on the layout! There is also room for them to fill out the baby stats such as weight, height, birthdate and time...


Since we are on the subject of babies... I would like to share a few highlights from a Dr. Seuss themed baby shower that I planned back in January! It was a blast!






And keeping in the character theme... I would like to share with you a couple of snapshots from MaKenzie's Hello Kitty 3rd Birthday Bash!






On the Exciting News Front....

I saw this in a mall when I was traveling home from a long week of work and when I got home he had it for me!



And so is my little sister... Tears still well up in my eyes as I think of this moment! OMG! Words can not explain how much I love her... She is super sweet and the best sister in the world!

{The flowers were beautiful, but the card was even sweeter}

While on a business trip in San Antonio... I had the opportunity to visit the Alamo and River Walk... Here are my thoughts about my visit to this historical site. "It's impossible to know where you are going...if you don't know where you have been." I have always had a passion for history. I was blessed to be able to visit The Alamo during their 175th anniversary. There was so much rich history! I even discovered that a freed slave was also recognized as a hero of the Alamo... I am so thankful that I get to travel and see different parts of the world.. But I am even more thankful that the more I see...the more I see the hands of God at work in the universe.

I am Fulfilling God-Given Purposes through Pageantry. This year I am coordinating the 2011 Rhinestones and Rabbits Easter Pageant! Only $65 to enter and that includes beauty, casual, photogenic, best smile, best dressed and best personality!!!!! We will crown 20 Queens 2 Kings , 2 Grand Supreme’s and 1 Ultimate Grand Supreme! $10 from every entry received will benefit the American Cancer Society!

And finally, I have allowed my DESTINY TO BE AWAKENED!


This blog has a played a major role in my quest for destiny... Don't get me wrong... Only the Creator can reveal to you what He created you to do... But my bible and this blog served as a compass...

Because of DESTINY AWAKES...I can now confidently write my mission... my purpose in life...

Melanie S. Smith is a Christian motivational speaker, business owner and a product manager for a Fortune 500 organization; whose purpose in life is to turn the hearts of girls toward God. Drawing from her experience in pageantry and coupling it with her desire to train young women to live life from the inside out; she is able to creatively inspire and motivate young girls to find their true in identities in Christ.

My destiny has been awakened...what about yours? Please share! I'd love to hear your comments!


Until next time,

M'Shonta
