I am a huge pinterest person too. Although I have to admit, every time I see a work out motivation pin, I try to pin at least one dessert. You can thank me later :)
Good luck on your half marathon!
Do you Pinterest?
Hi guys! It's Stephanie from The Rest is Still Unwritten and I'm back to guest blog again! I love this little gig...it's just so fun! Thank you, Becky, for allowing me to step in for you while you've been away. I can't remember exactly when I discovered Pinterest, but it was sometime in the...
So so pretty!! Those flowers look so pretty and I love your dress!
wedding preview!
I have been uploading pictures all day and night to Facebook to share with friends and family so I just don't have the strength to do a full-fledged wedding post here today...but I do want to share just a couple because I am anxious to share with everyone about our special day! :)
Yay for honeymoon pictures! And yay for being able to stay positive about the flight issues! Delays and lost luggage are hard to stay positive through! I think only honeymooners have the ability to do that ;)
honeymoon part 1
I am so sorry for the delay in posting our honeymoon pictures, but I accidentally crashed Rob's computer with the honeymoon pictures on it... I am SO thankful the pictures are still on the photo card, but I am bummed that it has to allllll be reloaded. So, without further ado here is the first ...
I loved my bridal brunch too! It was so fun to sit down and relax for a little while on the big day!
PS -Your veil does look HUGE! Very Bride-y!
bridal brunch!
One of my favorite things about my wedding day was the Bridal Breakfast one of my sweet friends and bridesmaids threw for me! Mary Scott is such a wonderful person in my life and I was so happy to have her as a bridesmaid in my wedding--especially when I had been a bridesmaid in her wedding jus...
ahh! Everything looks soo soo pretty! Enjoy your weekend and your honeymoon!! I'll be thinking of y'all on Saturday!
just two days!
We are just two days away from the big day and I truly could not be more excited! Today is the big day of decorating! We can finally get into our reception space and I am so happy! I wanted to share some of our wedding inspiration with you so that you might have an idea of some of the things ...
Ha I'd have to agree with you on not wishing for "happily ever after" - although I'd like a happy ending, I think the bumps are what adds to everything. (At least this is what I am trying to remind my self.)
Also - I noticed that 19 wasn't on there too!! I'm dumb, oops!
20 questions!
Katie at Oui, Bien Sur tagged me in a 20 questions game, and I am so happy to play along! :) Rule #1: The tagged person must write their answers on their blog and replace any question they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves. Rule #2: Tag 4 people to do this quiz. The tag-ee m...
So fun! I love New Orleans!! Can't wait for a full trip recap!
this weekend!
I had SUCH a wonderful time in New Orleans with all of my girlfriends. There were 9 of us that made the trip together and it made the weekend SO incredibly special! I am going to do a full post, of course, but I wanted to share a few photos from my phone! :) Here is my sweet friend Katie and I...
We have a 2 bedroom house and yet we still don't have a guestroom. Our second bedroom is much more an office with a bathroom, so guests stay there. With football season, we end up hosting people almost every weekend and despite the fact that they have to sleep on an air mattress people keep coming back!
One of my *MUST HAVES* for our next house is a functional guest bedroom. The hang up there- is that would mean BUYING furniture and that's just scary.
guest bedrooms...
My house right now only has one bedroom--it's a big loft-style master bedroom and bathroom, but it's still only one bedroom. When guests come to visit (which is luckily pretty often!!) either they get the master bedroom or an air mattress. I have really come to love our home, but I can't help ...
Aren't you sweet!!!! Thank you! I will start working on my post soon!
Also, that window box is amazing. How do people get things to grow like that? I can't even keep my grass green!
my first award!
On Tuesday morning I was reading my Google Reader while I was getting ready for the day. I clicked on Keep Calm and Carry On to read one of my favorite blogs. I was so excited Katie had been awarded a blogging award and was sharing seven random facts about herself! I love those kinds of award...
I love the very first hairstyle of the hair down pictures - so pretty and simple yet "wedding-y"... Out of your back up options I like the one second from the bottom.
My advise with wedding hair is to keep it simple- you still want to look like you. I had to avoid the urge to get a prom up do and I was glad that I did the simple chignon under my veil. Another question to ask your self is whether or not you plan on wearing your veil throughout the reception? Someone had told me that as soon as I take off my veil I become "another married in a white dress" so it was important for me to wear it and feel "bride-y" for as long as possible!
wedding friday!
Even though Wedding Friday doesn't exactly have the same ring to it as Wedding Wednesday, we do have some important things to talk about! Wedding hairstyles! I'm getting married in March (which is only 6 weeks away, friends!!) and so there is no way to plan for the weather. My first choice is ...
It looks like it was a great shower! I wish I had had a blog during my wedding planning to document all my showers and parties, You'll love having all these to look back on down the road!
my first bridal shower!!
I had so much fun on Saturday when I went to my first bridal shower, in Kentucky. This shower was hosted by so many of the wonderful women in my family, which was so amazing! I took some pictures right when the shower started...but then Crystal stepped in for me and played photographer for the...
Omgoodness! That last picture of Rex in the snow is so so cute! He looks like he's having the BEST time!
snow days!!
Just like most of you, we have had our fair share of snow up here! I took some sweet pictures of Rex, as well as the icicles and snow falling around the house that I wanted to show you! I love love love the icicles hanging off of Rob's barn. :) Rex is so obsessed with the snow. Aren't t...
I have Water for Elephants on my list to read too! I have heard really good things about it. I am also super excited for the book club... I think it has been the best way for me to get outside what I normally read.
books for 2011!
I am a HUGE reader. I can hardly go to sleep at night without at least reading a little bit. I also read every day when I am blow-drying my hair. (Wait--that implies that I get ready every day which isn't the case, for sure!!) I also read a lot when I travel, especially to the beach! I try...
I *wish* I could turn all those negative things into positives like you did!! Way to go! (Also, the flower girls are easy, they feel princesses anyway - I let mine pick out her own shoes and it made her day!)
taking the negative and making it a positive
This summer I had the opportunity to teach a class at Junior High Camp. Teaching theme classes are SO hard because you could do a lesson one day and nobody would listen or care what you had to say. You could teach the SAME class the next day and the kids would be all over it. I've definitely ...
SPAIN?! Are you kidding?? Color me green with envy!
Barcelona has been on my top 5 places to visit in the world! Can't wait to hear about your adventures! And if you need someone to tag along to be your personal photographer while in Spain - you know I can make my self available - I can make my self fit inside a suitcase if necessary!
wedding wednesday!!
Rob and I have been searching for the perfect honeymoon getaway for quite some time... We debated so many different trips including the Caribbean, Greece, Europe, Tahiti, Hawaii...the list never ended! Rob's ideal honeymoon involves traveling to vineyards for wine-tasting. {image credit} My i...
So so cute! I loved this card too! I thought this was a great promotion, I was shocked to see how much I "saved" at the end. Perfect pictures at the bottom too - just think next Christmas you'll use wedding pictures!! :)
christmas cards!
I took part in the Shutterfly giveaway for bloggers this year! I was so excited to have these beautiful Christmas cards for my little family, especially because my Christmas card budget was definitely lacking! I only ordered 50 thinking it would be plenty, but I know next year I can easily dou...
