Summer Reading List

My computer is out of commission again so no home photos.  NOOOOOO!  Did you know I lost every single file/song/picture on my hard drive?  The school tech department is STILL working on my hard drive.  Until then, check out these books.  A lot of people have been asking lately for great book recommendations for their [Read On]

Wedding Details

(I apologize that this is so incredibly belated.  By the time we got our wedding photos from our photographer, we were at the height of a very busy semester in a new job.  Things have slowed down enough now that I am excited to share these details with you!) Entrance to the chapel I have [Read On]

Wedding Paper

We got married on 6.23.12!  I am finally going to do a series of posts on the ins and outs of wedding planning!  Planning our wedding was my (second) full time job last year- we did not even hire a florist!  Any area that I could cut an unnecessary cost, I chose to do so [Read On]

Spray paint is going to be my wedding’s best friend

Our wedding centerpieces are going to be very eclectic.  For a few tables, I picked up some big glass vases from a sweet little thrift store for about .75 each.  They are all different sizes/shapes.   Here is what they looked like BEFORE.  (kind of boring, right?) After a few light coats of silver spray paint, [Read On]

Save the Date

I created our Save the Date in Power Point and saved it as a jpeg to print as a post card.  After searching and searching online for something I loved, I decided to design my own so it was exactly what I wanted… and it was SO much more reasonable!  I printed these at Office Depot.  [Read On]

Engaged!

We’re ENGAGED! Taylor blew me away by proposing on December 17th! I know, right?  It was over a week ago and I’m just now publishing this… but I’ve been planning OUR WEDDING! First, the PROPOSAL: I was not expecting it- mostly because he has been trying to throw me off by acting like it would [Read On]
