If celebrating with caramel & chocolate drizzled popcorn, shopping, meeting new friends & spending time with old ones makes for a good party then consider the book party a great night! Dear Lizzie after hours is always a treat. It takes the typical girls-night-out and makes it dazzle & shine.My cute family below... they are supportive & encouraging. Love them all so much! Even Taimi came, oh, she is a doll.
Such a fun night! Thank you to everyone who celebrated with us.
Such a fun night! Thank you to everyone who celebrated with us. I'm sad that I didn't get a photo of everyone, but just know, it meant so much to me that you came. x0 I thought it would only be Collin & I sitting there all night. ;)
Seeing Beth was exciting because she was the editor for the book & worked so hard on making sure everything was perfect. It was easy peasy making decisions with her, since we agree on everything. Sometimes I even wondered if she could read my mind but it was just because we get along great. She is such a delightful little lady. (Thanks Beth!)
The funniest part of the night was when Beth & Collin had a smizing war. (For those who don't know, to smize means 'to smile with your eyes.') Since Tyra Banks coined the term Collin has been perfecting his look.
Brian Smith, one of the photographers for the book, came with his wife. The photography in the book is killer. (bpd studios)

I tried smizing right after I read what it was all about - not as good as Colin is but I will work on that! You look great and looks like a great time!
This looks like you had sooo much fun!!

Lizzie, What a FAB party!! If I lived there I would have come!! My Mom and I actually shopped at Dear Lizzy this past July...so much FUN! Then we had lunch at the Blue Lemon!
I am still searching for your book...I'm hoping to find it before Christmas. Love your style.
Just gotta tell you...I think my family and I met Brian while at CK a few years back. We are friends with the Bearnson's and on one of our trips to Utah (we live in Missouri) Lisa took us to CK. She took us to the photography room and this young man (Brian I think) was standing there. My husband Dave had on a Bearcat shirt. Brian notices it and asks if we lived in Maryville. We said yes then he said I went to college there!! His parents are in our Stake, too if I remember right. Plus he had eaten at our Pizza place before!!
Lizzie, would you ask him if he remembers that story. We just thought it was sooo cool!!
Thanks and keep up the creative work. I love your energy!!

I'm still working on the Smizing. It's like Magnum by Derrick Zoolander, not quite ready yet. I more look ticked off than anything else for some reason.
It was so great to meet you! My sister and I love the book and really enjoyed our evening out with no kids. Thanks for the fun!

wow! fun pics. Well I would LOVE a chance to win your book. I am in freezing winter temperatures of -40 in Canada and even lower and we try to stay bundled up inside the house! So I would curl up with a blanket and read it cover to cover.
Thanks for the chance.
Congrats on the book! I've finally had a chance to sit down and enjoy each page. It is wonderful!
Happy 2010
