Day 281 says "I do"!!

One of my best friends since HS walked down the aisle this weekend and I was so honored to be there to celebrate with her and her family. She was simply stunning, everything was perfect, and the best part? She didn't stop smiling the entire day. Sigh. Isn't love grand? Love you, manda!!


ps. BONUS ROUND! Us 3 kids all went to HS together. Reunion, what what!

Day 106 partied hard

Wedding weekend is officially over and I am quite le sad. The party and the awesome times with friends was virtually nonstop and it was incredible. Not incredible is how I forgot my camera cord in Seattle, wah wah! Here's the one pic from Saturday that I was able to get on my phone. It's from the after-party and it was quite the good time. Sorry for the late post readers!

Day 107 doesn't want to leave

You can see why I didn't want this weekend to end! This is the view from the deck of the beautiful beach house where we stayed. Now I'm back in PA, unfortunately getting ready to start the week. Blerg. Why can't my friends get married at the beach every weekend?

Day 106 got married!

This is why both Aislinn and I missed a day of posting. Oops! Sorry faithful readers (most of you were at the wedding anyway...). Better late than never, right? Congratulations to the happy couple!

Day 105 is ready to party, party

And thus begins the wedding weekend! The rehearsal dinner we just got back from was all kinds of awesome and now we're chilling and laughing and remembering great college stories all night. Perfection? Yes, indeed. Hooray for a great weekend with even greater friends!

Day 105 is a beach

It's officially wedding weekend! Most of us arrived late last night and now we're all just relaxing and getting ready for the events. After helping with some of the setup we came back to our beach house (which is beautiful by the way). But first Meredith, Adam and I took a very quick stop at the beach. Only quick because it was freezing and super windy. Stay tuned for more wedding weekend excitement!

Day 104 needs some good tunes

I'm almost ready to leave for the wedding weekend extravaganza, but wanted to post first! Since 90s on 9 has been letting me down recently and I don't trust nighttime driving while CD changing, I'm letting my iPod act as the soundtrack to my drive. Fingers crossed that I don't get lost!

Day 103 likes sparkly things

Tomorrow night I'm driving to South Jersey for my friend's wedding. This means dancing, board games, wine, laughs and general celebrating. This also means Aislinn and I will be co-blogging in the same place soon! In the meantime between work, errands, and life stressors I've been trying to sneak in some packing. Most importantly (besides snacks of course): jewelry. This is the part of packing I enjoy, especially because I discovered things I forgot I owned! These are a few pieces I have picked out. I will most likely wear the same pair of earrings the entire weekend, but at least I'll be prepared! Plus if anyone needs to borrow a sparkly item or two I hope I can be of help!

Day 65, meet Irving.

I went to my friend Ashlee's wedding shower this afternoon. It was a beautiful happy day! Look at these delicious cupcakes and... wait a minute. Who is that adorable little mouse hanging out there? Why, it's none other than Irving Bentley III! For those who aren't familiar with this little guy, he's the official mascot of my college dorm experience. After discovering him amidst Christmas decorations during our sophomore year, my roommates and I couldn't part with him. He's stuck with us even after college and has travelled the world (Greece, France, Spain...)! And this wasn't his first bridal shower.
