Weekend in Photos

Techinically, back in those ol college days, Thursday night started off the weekend (thanks for no class on Fridays!), in which I'm applying the same concept here. Wishful longing?

So! Thursday we took our happy selves to the Ranger's game at the Ballpark in Arlington (it will always be the ballpark to me no matter what it's really called). Tostitos sponsors all of the chips there, so we had some bomb.com nachos while we were waiting. So so so good. Not to mention we seat hopped several times. Started out in the Jack Daniels Club, moved to our real seats, moved to a friends seat in the outfield, and then the Captain Morgan club.

Friday we took ourselves to the lake, and even though we weren't staying at our normal spot, the sunset is always a looker. <3

And they had horses! How they put up with all the racket there, I don't understand, but they were still really cool! The place we stayed at was hosting a Noodling Tournament, and the next day, there were all sorts of activities, including a car show. Got to see some really cool oldies. And even bigger catfish! Some were bigger than small children. Yeck.

Sunday brought upon a lazy, hot day, and a celebratory dinner at my not so favorite place (On the Border), where my parents gave my sister her graduation present. Oh happy day.

Now, is it Friday yet?

Hair today, gone tomorrow!

Well. I did it. Took the plunge. Jumped off the band wagon. And I feel....about 8-9 inches lighter! And the not so pretty before photo (just looked at all that fried straw!): #shorthairdontcare

Wedding Invites: DIY

During my wedding planning, one of the things that I was most "sticker shocked" on was how much wedding invitations cost! I looked everywhere (and I'm talking everywhere: Etsy, Michaels, Target, Pinterest, any online shop, etc.) for ones that I liked that were cute, not too elaborate, and at a reasonable price (meaning not $300-600). I mean, it's a sheet of paper, envelope, stamp, and RSVP basically. It wasn't until I found this DIY that I finally had a possibility for what we were wanting to use for our invites, and I think they turned out great (for a DIY). 2 Invites could be made from 1 sheet of paper. I printed the actual invite on Vellum paper, and then put it over the card stock. Here's what you need: FREE Template 1 pack of 100 sheet Card Stock Paper-I got mine from Michaels because it was shimmery but not too blingy 1 pack of white vellum paper (I got mine at Staples) Ribbon in color of your choice Hole Puncher Scissors Half

Winter is Coming..so is a Wedding!

Burrrr! Today is a balmy 40 degrees outside-and I'm definitely not ready for it despite my scarf-wearing, boot shopping fashion choices since September, hoping to "force" Fall to actually happening, but now that it's here: go away! Or at least just get a liiiitle bit warmer, so I can still have fun in my dozens of scarves and boots, but not freeze my ass off. Ka-peesh? My parents like to kindly remind me of what's to come in December, since we are going to the Army-Navy football game in Baltimore. Last year in Philly was just awful (and by awful I mean freezing, rainy, icy, cold, hungry, wet, sweaty, repeat) but a blasty blast being in a new city and living through new memories being made. Any hoo-Even though I'm not snuggled up at home on this festive Veteran's Day (thank you to everyone who has served!), warm in my bed, I still wanted to touch on some wedding related topics: vendors. This could also be fun to read AFTER the wedding in April, to loo
