Ramblings and Grumblings of a Bride to Be!

Thoughts leading up to the big day:

Monday, April 6- Alright, wedding week! Dang we did a lot this past weekend. What else do we have to do this week (let's make a list! I love lists)? When do I need to shave my legs again? 

Tuesday, April 7- I don't really feel stressed at all-I'm getting things done in my own time and not stressing, so whyyyy is my skin all of a sudden breaking out? I haven't changed anything about what I'm eating or drinking or activity levels. Meh. I also feel a little sad because time has gone by so fast that I truly am no longer a kid or fresh out of school. This is adult real life and I'm making adult real life decisions. Just kinda sad that my youth really is over. Not that I'm not excited for the future. Guess it's all those old pictures my mom has been going through from my childhood that makes me feel this way. But I sure was cute, right?! 

 (In honor of this past Easter weekend. Clearly didn't feel the need to put on an Easter Dress so I rocket Belle and the Beast)

(Hiyaaaa)

(The epitome of mine and Mallory's relationship growing up. The annoying little sister as always <3)

Wednesday, April 8- Today is my Friday! Woo hoo! Crap, what else do I need to do before the actual Friday? Okay like 5 people are texting me at once about wedding stuff. Where is my list. Ok, I'm on schedule, sorta. Why is my skin still being weird. and WHY oh why is it going to be 90% chance of rain on Saturday. Last week it was sunny! 

Things to do:
Get my Dress (uhhhh)
Finish packing for the honeymoon (I need a bigger suitcase haaaaa)
Do we still have to get little travel sized containers? (yes)
Is my passport expired (nope)
Eat our groceries in the fridge so they don't go bad while we are gone (yum)
Get Married (but not until Saturday)

I think I'm okay?

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 ...

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...

Water Wars Week 3

Week 3 Update: Just chugging along! Both literally and physically. Week 3 is now in the books. Can't say that much has changed since Week 2, but I'm also waking up thirsty and drinking a little bit of water before I eat breakfast and then almost a full 20 ounces on my way to work in the mornings to get the day started. I do tend to "slack" on the weekends (not by much though!) because really, who has time to carry around a water bottle and find a bathroom every hour-especially when you're not home. I do the best I can, and still drink water with every meal too. I can tell the difference though, because by Monday I feel dehydrated and crave water.  I have WAYY more energy than I used to. I'm not sluggish throughout the day (unless I really didn't sleep good the night before), so I be kickin' it all day errrrday.  I feel like my skin is the same. It's not as "changed" as I was hoping (expecting?), but also my skin wasn't that...
