It's Official


We have decided on a day to get hitched!

April 14th, 2012

Only 4 weeks away.......eeek! But that's ok. Because it's going to be the simplest wedding known to woman. We asked our preacher if he would marry us. He said he would be honored. Yippie! Where?!

So after some quick suggestions back and forth Brian and I decided on the Botanical Gardens close to the UNCA campus. A nice, easy place to get to with wonderful walking trails and lots of nature. (No snakes please, thanks). We're hoping to be able to have the ceremony near the cabin.


There will just be about 12 of us (including bride and groom). We are letting God do the decorating by letting beautiful flowers bloom and lush greens shine.Of course pesky rain may come but doesn't it always when you try to plan something outside?

I am going to make my own invitations. SO EXCITED about that!!! Getting inspiration from Pinterest, of course.


AND AND AND...getting excited about what I'm going to wear. I want to wear something that is "me" and is very comfy. So I am leaning more towards the boho/hippie type of dresses. Here are a few that I have spotted on Pinterest that has caused me to run down to the consignment shops at lunch to see if they had one. No luck, by the way. Think I'm going to have to order one from etsy or ebay:

I would also love to have a flower crown. Not huge or bright but just something natural and sweet



Let the excitement BEGIN!!!!

P.S. shopping ban lifted for awesome things like buying a hippie wedding dress for your wedding day

Seriously has to be the most worn outfit in my closet. So in hopes not to bore you to death with ANOTHER rendition of leggings and a tunic shirt, I danced my way through this one. Yup. It's mostly 80s. Don't hate.






Nail action! This mani lasted a whole week! And I can't beleive how many outfits it went with.

Dream Green

Green is my favorite color - so you never have to twist my arm and create a holiday to make me wear green! Silly! Oh, the holiday wasn't made for me? Ohhh...But I will take that adorable sweater down there:

Mommy Updates

My son is really bewildered that he can blow bubbles now with bubble gum. He needs me to look at every bubble he blows. Every. bubble.


To celebrate upcoming St. Patrick's Day we made green pancakes. Pancakes are his favorite food.




He had to make the World's Biggest Green Pancake



Found some time to do my nails too


made some brownie cupcakes from scratch topped with powdered sugar


and cooked hot dogs over the fire pit...and tried to keep it away from the dog...

Praisin' Girl

Dress, Sweater & Blouse: Thrifted, Leggings: NY&Co, Shoes: BareTraps

A tangerine color for a kind of spring like day. And a new coffee cup that happens to match my fingernail polish. Or a polish that matches my cup. Either or - a happy girl am I.
