NT State Fair


First off-Happy Freakin September! Whaaaat?!

In an attempt to actually keep up and document our shenanigans, especially for the start of my favorite part of the year, I present our annual Friday night NT State Fair-"celebrating" back to school, kick off to the start of football/fair season, good country music, better friends, and a pretty good time. 

Highlights: 2 Hurradura shots of tequila, chilled and dressed at El Guapos. An epic selfie. Free koozies. Making a stop home at our old Gateway stomping grounds! This is also known as THE place that Robert and I met, became friends, and lived happily ever after-until we had to move out at the end of the summer. So many memories! 

Lowlights: A hot sweaty mess of a crowd. Awful lighting for pics. No Wendy's on the way home because I forgot to stop and I was tired. Womp. 


Honorable mention goes to the Saturday afternoon hang out with the in-laws followed by a small patio watch party for the rest of the Cowboys game at a family friend's house. 









My balcony, exactly where we first met!

Honeymoon Part 1

Where to start, where to start? It's surreal to me how we've ALREADY been married over a week, AND that we've already been to the Bahamas and back :( The Bahamas (in Nassau to be exact) is such a beautiful place. It's the same island that has the Atlantis Resort on it, which we could see in the distance down the coast from our resort. We really picked the perfect place to spend our honeymoon. We left cloudy, rainy Dallas and Atlanta to sunshine and white sand, blue water, and 80 degree weather! It's so crazy to me that we've already been back from there after spending the week out of the country.  Obligatory newlywed plane selfie Monday morning came dark and early at 4am to catch our first flight out of DFW. I was proudly wearing my super comfy new "wifey" sweatshirt that my friend/bridesmaid Shohreh got me-thank goodness she stalks me on Pinterest ;) along with our brand spankin new wedding bands. Robert's ring looks so good against his ...

To cut, or not to cut...that is my question!

More like a dilemma. I've done it before, and I've grown it back out, so I can do it again-right? I feel like everyone has short hair these days (I currently have the longest hair on my team at work!) , and all I wanted when I had short hair was to have long hair again. Now that it's long (and gross and fried and ick at the ends) I want to go short. But then I have an awesome long-haired day and think I want to keep it long. Do you see my problem here? Summer is coming, so it's going to be up in a pony tail or bun most days, so that just seems like such a waste of hair. But I sweat a lot and since summer is hot, wearing it in it's intended short style probably wouldn't last.  What is a girl to do?! 

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
