Getting to know YOU

Sunday, July 4th, 2010

Hey everyone, I hope your 4th of July went well. My family kicked back and just spent a lot of quality time and rested. My assistant Pia and I had a meetup and went to get yogurt and went over this weeks schedule. When I got back home,Rebecca over at Mannlands put up this weeks questions for Getting to Know You.I was ready to tackle the questions for this week, here they are….
1. What do you look forward to the most on the 4th of July?

I look foward to fellowship, then the fireworks, even though they bother my ears and I never actually go see them. My kids and hubby love to go lol. I’m a big party pooper in this area and always opt out and stay home and enjoy quiet time and surf the internet for great reads…I know, I’m so lame lol.

2. Are you a hugger?

Hell yeah! I’m a huge hugger lol. I don’t have to know you but I LOVE to hug you! Some people are very uncomfortable hugging people but I like it lol.

3. What is your favorite BBQ’d food?

My fav bbq’d food, I would have to say is grilled salmon! It taste soo good and my hubby is the champ at making it! Yum!

4. Do you like to watch parades?

I think that parades are so much fun and you get to see so many personalities and creativeness, so yes!

5. Who has stinkier farts..boys or girls?

I think boys have stinkier poots(farts) than girls. Something is wrong with the way men are biologically built because they can really can let out some stinkers…pee uuuu lol.

6. Vampires or Werewolves?

I’m not into the whole vampire/werewolves thing. I hate scarey movies and all these vampire shows and movies, no thanks! I’d rather read a book or see something funny or romantic lol.

7. Do you read your horoscope?

Yes, but not all the time but funny thing, I just read my horoscope on Gemini’s today and it said that….

I am extremely social
I like to mix work and play
I want to settle down but then again I want my freedom to do as I please(that would be me tee hee)
I am very creative
I am very persuasive
I can sell anything or promote something very well

8. What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?

Now why did you have to ask me that? Ofcourse it’s Strawberry! I love it!

Update on my workout

Friday, February 5th, 2010

Go Tami!

Ok, so you guys have not seen me blog too much about working out. That’s because I was M.I.A. for about 2 weeks. Lisa had an emergency to attend to and without her I was just not motivated to set foot in the gym lol. I know, I know, I should do it alone but she was my trainer. With me not knowing how to use certain equipment, it was hard for me. Everyday we would use something different, so I was lost without my buddy!

Go Lisa!

Well yesterday we hit the gym and it was so good to see her! Her mom, happily to report is doing much better! I was saying a prayer for her mom daily. We got back on track and did are cardio and weights. It felt good to work out and trust me I’m so sore today lol. Lisa told me that she felt a lil weird that I wasn’t there too. Sometimes you need that extra lil push by your side. When I’m lifting those weights, I know I do lol.

Such a cute couple!

Check out Ed & Lisa’s biceps,one day I will be proud to show mine but for now enjoy theirs ha! Oh by the way, I lost 7 pounds! Even though I didn’t physically go into the gym, I still ate right and have cut back on alot of my sugar intake,woot! Also, there was no sighting of the “panty lady”, darn!

What a Makeover!

Taylor Ector Studios

I am working on something very nice here in Atlanta. It involves our top celebrity photographers and I think people will be pleased with the outcome. Well Rob Ector was my third stop to see on my journey and we had a ball! Rob Ector is a fellow Clevelander that I met at Derek Blanks studio a few years ago. We were laughing and talking about missing the food we grew up on lol.

Rob has now branched off on his own and now has his own studio called, Taylor Ector Studios which he co-owns with his sister. I was very impressed by his work because he has shot some great people. He is a very talented person and I love to see young men start their own businesses! We sat down and talked about the business and he told me that his studio is a one stop shop. When you book with him, you can get a stylist which is his sister, Leah Taylor,Makeup by LaTasha Wright and Hair by Valerie Hamilton. All are the bomb and have glammed up the biggest names in the entertainment industry.

Celebrity Makeup Artist LaTasha Wright

Well it was my turn to try them out and all I can say is wowza! I came in a hot mess and left feeling very sexy and beautiful! First I sat down with celebrity makeup artist, LaTasha Wright. She said she has worked with many people in the industry and she use to work for MAC Cosmetics, before doing her own thing. When we were talking she said that she had just did Atlanta Housewife, Sheree Whitfield’s face for the reunion show. I was very impressed with how she beat my face! I have gotten my face down by alot of makeup artist but I’m going to say she is in my top three now, lol.

Celebrity Hairstylist Valerie Hamilton

Next Valerie Hamilton did my hair. I loved her accent but she said she is from Connecticut lol. She said she has done Mary J Blige to soo many other celebrities, I was soo happy to sit in her chair lol. She added hair clips to my hair and styled it in like 20 minutes! She works very fast and it came out so darn cute! I felt very glamourous!

Leah Taylor getting me right!

Then I was styled by Celeb Stylist Leah Taylor which, is the Co Owner of Taylor Ector Studios. She styled NeNe Leakes in the alter ego show on Atlanta Housewives and may more notable celebs. In her style suite she had the latest clothing, hats, coats ,sparkly dresses, shoes and accessories and young girl would love to play in there! Watch out Rachel Zoe, Leah is coming for you, lol! The style Diva put me in a Black Jumpsuit, Black Christian Louboutin shoes and glitzy bracelets and a necklace. I felt like I was Janet Jackson’s stand in,because that’s who I thought I looked like, lmao!

Va Va Voom!

Then it was my buddy Rob to take my pics. I’m very comfortable around Rob because he reminds me of a lil brother I never had lol. He is very creative and can build any set that you are thinking of.He has shot Eva Pigford,Lance Gross,Tameka Tiny Cottle and Antonia Toya Carter just to name a few. I know you guys are wondering, where is my pink? That pic will also be revealed for my new banner in the new year, ha!

Celebrity Photographer Rob Ector

I will unveil the final pic soon but wanted you to check these pics out. Look at the before and after its so serious! Thank you guys for glamming me up and I will be back and you guys check the website out! Taylor Ector studios will also be launching a new tv show as well. When I left the studio my hubby was very excited if you get what I mean, shout outs to my hubby Terrell, I Love You and thanks for thinking Momma still got it! Much love and blessings to all of them for making me Perty!
