Please watch the video of my consultation with Sara from TVV Medi Spa. She is so knowledgeable and kind while we were chatting about my acne. I felt very comfortable with her and was so thankful that she was going to change my life. We also made several vidoes of the actual procedures. That's the great thing about Laser360 it takes about an hour and then you go home. 

After the procedure was over I was thrilled.  You can't really tell, because well my face was VERY HOT!! It's not until the procedure is totally over that your face just gets super hot. The ice packs and fan bring major relief along with gobs of aquaphor. I did take a day off from work to ice and continue to keep my face covered in aquaphor. That decision is completely up to you. I suggest it. My next procedure I will do it on a Friday. (you do the Laser360 in a series of 3 every 30 days)

I came home and laid down elevated with my ice towels on and drifted away for an hour or so, those pain pills knocked me out :) There really isn't any pain, just uncomfortable. It's like having an annoying sunburn. You are constantly icing and putting aquaphor on your face. But hey you're nursing a brand new face!! There's got to be some 'work' involved.

I woke up the following day now like 10 hrs after procedure and text TVV Medi Spa and the girls at the office were excited for me, they say my face looks great. I have also posted hourly photos. It looks worse before it gets better. Speaking of the TVV Medi Spa it is gorgeous and elegant. It doesn't look like a doctors office. There's a gorgeos chandelier *that I want!!* in the entry and up the stairs you go with giant purple cystal rocks. The TVV Medi Spa staff always made me feel super comfortable and like I was VIP. I have never been to a medi spa before and I am very glad that this is how my first expierence was!

Not only do they offer the Laser360 BUT cool sculpting which freezes your fat, (I'm thinking that after baby and no I'm not pregnant....YET, which by the way you can't be pregnant to be working with lasers of any kind) BOTOX, laser hair removal, permanent makeup. TVV Medi Spa has got it all!

I'm now well over 24hours out since Laser360 and my face feels very tight, that would be the NEW collagen! I basically got a face lift witout surgery!! How awesome is that!

Ladies, if you are like me and you do have great self esteem but you hide your skin under a ton of makeup or hats or just avoid outings check out TVV Medi Spa and email me and ask me. I have been so honest during this whole journey and will totally help ya out with this. I'm excited for you and for me!

I'm very thankful to the entire staff at TVV Medi Spa especially, Dr. Alonso, Kim and Sarah....ya'll are changing my life and my smile is even bigger now!

As a teenager I had acne. I hated it. Period. I have always used some sort of acne regimen. With no really great results. My face would clear up for a couple of months and then it would just conitnue to break out. It's a cycle. From ALL of the breakouts from a teenager to my adult years I have acne scars, discoloration, cysts, and pits. I have always been VERY self concious about my skin. I have been very open in talking about it on air too. I know I am not the only one who deals with this everyday. When I see women with flawless skin, I sink. I want beautiful skin too...and that is why I made the call to TVV Medi Spa. Turns out that I am the PERFECT candidate for Laser360, Basically in CoCo terms "new face!". I was VERY excited that I was perfect for this procedure and couldn't wait to get started. I was overwhelmed just thinking that I will be getting rid of those acne scars and my skin pigmentation. I hardly went without makeup. I hated to work events outside. I would make up excuses to go anywhere, because I was embarassed. All this is going to change with the 360Laser. LIKE the TVV Medi Spa page  for more info and to keep up with what is going to be an amazing adventure that my face and I are about to go on! I AM SO EXCITED!!!

I HAVE BEEN WAITING A WHOLE YEAR (WELL ALMOST, JUST SHY A COUPLE OF DAYS) TO SHARE MY WEDDING VIDEO WITH YOU. IT'S NOT THE WHOLE THING, BUT I HOPE YOU ENJOY MY MOST FAVORITE DAY EVER!!! I LOVE MY HUSBAND!

Jalapeno Popper Dip

6-8 slices of bacon, diced and cooked crispy
2 8 oz packages of cream cheese, soft
1 cup of mayo
4-6 jalapeno's chopped and diced (if you leave the seeds in, it will be way hotter)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
1/3 cup of diced green onion

mix all that in a bowel

then the topping
1 cup of crushed crackers, I used RITZ
1/2 parmesan cheese
1/2 stick of butter ( I was freakin out on this part...that is A LOT of butter!!!)

preheat oven to 350

take the mix in your bowl and put it in a oven safe dish and top it off with your topping and bake it for 20-30 mins. I checked mine at like 25mins and it was gooey and warm in middle and top is kinda crispy.

I served it with the rest of the RITZ crackers, but I'm thinking next time a chip. Did have a suggestion of adding a packet of ranch to the dip, that sounds amazing. Ranch with anything is dang good!

now the drinks....Yvonne made "Sunrises" for us
1 part vodka ( we used orange vodka)
1 part OJ
1 part mango juice
2 parts dry champagne
lots of ice and orange slices

it was YUMMY!

ok then Rebecca brought over material and supplies for our spring wreaths

this was the most detailed wreath I have made. Rebecca is the 'sewer'. It was just a lil confusing at first on makin those flowers, but soooooo cute! I see headbands in the future with these!

JUST SKIP TO MIN 3:27 TO HEAR A LIL BIT OF THE REMIX.

Florida Georgia Line is just the latest country act to collaborate with an artist from another genre. The duo announced that they will team up with hip-hop artist Nelly for a remix of their number one hit song, “Cruise.” The new remix will be available on April 2 and a taste of the new collaboration is subtly placed at the end of Nelly’s “Hey Porsche”. Brian Kelley says, "When we caught wind that Nelly was a fan of 'Cruise,' we were floored. We've been fans of his music for years and thought it would be cool to team up on a remix.” Tyler Hubbard adds, "Nelly brought a fresh, unique sound to 'Cruise' and we're super-excited for our fans to hear."
