My Boy and Me

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  My day has been filled with running errands, and so wearing something comfy felt perfectly appropriate.  I was going to break out the summer sandals, but decided to bring my big Brown with me for the day, and this boy certainly doesn't want to walk around town with his momma in wedges.

(How cute is his John Deere bandana!?)

Focus on the Important Stuff

So is it strange for a bride-to-be to have pretty regular nightmares about her big day?  I've definitely had a handful of them since our August engagement, and it's the worst.  Basically, every single one is about the same thing--being unprepared.  In last night's version, my dad refused to get dressed in his suit in time for the wedding and I had to dance with him while he was in a t-shirt and jeans.  Past wedding-related nightmares have included missing flowers, forgotten gown, bad hair, etc.  

I'm going to have to give myself some serious Zen time before bed each night so that I can focus on what this wedding is really about.  You know, love, commitment.. the big stuff.

But seriously, Dad, put the suit on.

Bare with me everybody, it's been a hectic time.  I've been trying hard to juggle concert time at work, constant wedding planning distractions, and all of the other commitments that have been filling my days.  I'm coming back to the blogging world soon, I swear!  I even have a few wedding ideas to share with all of you... mostly because I have commitment issues with my decisions at hand and I could really use some advice.

In the mean time, I hope you can stand a boring on-the-go weekend outfit.  I basically lived in some version of this outfit from Friday-Sunday.  Inspiration has been lacking :(

A Hurricane Engagement

Remember when I mentioned that yesterday was a whirlwind of events?  It was, without a doubt, a day I will cherish forever.  Erik proposed to me in our home.  It was quiet, romantic, and surprisingly unexpected.  The presence of a hurricane ruined his initial plans for the weekend, and then it ruined his backup plans... truthfully, I'm so glad that it did, because the day was perfect.  We celebrated on our own, amidst a scary and monumental storm.

Today we had a little celebratory dinner with some family.  It's such a happy and memorable time for us, I just couldn't resist sharing our news!

A Whirlwind of a Day

It's been a whirlwind of a day to say the least!  I'll never forget today's events, which includes sitting through a major hurricane as we speak.  Naturally, I had to fit a little blog post into my day before we end up losing power like so many others already have...

Another major event will have to be saved for another post :)  Until then, be safe, east coast!
