This weekend wasn’t nearly long enough…but then again, they never are. Not much worth noting  because we took it pretty easy, which was much needed due to all our upcoming travels and events. Friday night, we stocked up at the grocery store, rented a movie, and relaxed. Saturday, we hit the gym, I shopped high and […]

Fast approaching is the epitomy of southern fashion… otherwise known as the Kentucky Derby. Though I’ve never been to the big event myself, we have our own version in Nashville otherwise known as the Iroquois Steeplechase. It’s the most fun day of the year and always a necessity on my social calendar, however, this year we’re forgeoing the races […]

My sorority’s creed–haha. Random, I know. And other nonsense…this is Thursday’s topic of delight. For some reason, this morning I woke up and must have felt patriotic because I am most certainly sporting a navy striped skirt and a tomato red springtime sweater…God Bless America, right?  On another fashion note, I finally did it–I broke down and purchased […]

OK so I didn’t think my last post regarding “the diet” would stimulate so much conversation…I am glad to know that people actually care what I have to say, so thanks for listening friends. With that being said, I want to clarify what I meant by my diet– we all have a certain way we want […]

Normally, I pretty much eat what I want…in moderation. Coupled with 3 to 4 days of exercise and portion control, I’m on a fairly routine food plan, but can incorporate a few indulgences every now and then since I know what my “happy weight” fluctuates around.  However, 2 weeks from today=bridal portraits, which means this girl is going […]

I had a few of my blogging friends email me asking for suggestions on what to cook for Easter and how to host a fun get-together for friends/family after church activities…with Easter Sunday just a week and a half away, here are some of my favorite ideas I’ve found {and yes, included links to the actual […]

Ahhhhh!! Freakout mode commences… after a LOVELY and wonderful weekend in Knoxville with friends and family, the hustle and bustle of pre-wedding life gets back in action. 2 months from today, us girls will be getting beautiful and the boys will be–well, let’s face it, sleeping and being lazy until about an hour before the ceremony–but […]

OK, so all of you were quick to come to the rescue and ease my fears about talking about all the white-what-not-to-wear, so I thought it would be a perfect Friday post to showcase anything and everything WHITE on the horizon this season…I think we should all wear this color as much as possible for […]

once this wedding fiasco business is said and done, i am going to make a serious effort to blogging again about fun DIY projects, new recipes, decorating the house, fun workouts and exercises, shopping…you know the very important stuff–haha. until that time, though, i thought i would take some time to divert your attention to other noteworthy blogs […]

Though today started off a bit rough around the edges, I want to be positive and thankful for all the GOOD things I have going on right now… remember, the glass is ALWAYS half full, but if all else fails, I can tell myself this: I love how every week we get to venture over […]
