A little bit of this and that..

This week has been the dreariest week ever to me! 
Tuesday it rained all day it seemed like and the rest of the week has been cloudy, muggy, and BLAAAAAH..

It has made me want to stay cuddled up in bed with my little Kylee.. 


Yup.. this is how we roll...

BUT,

Tomorrow, I am doing makeup for a wedding..


I need to get my things ready tonight..

It's the first UGA home game of the season!!


GOOO DAAAWGS!!!! SIC 'EM!!!

And, I need to work on Wedding stuff! I started making the flower girl baskets the other night and need to finish while I have some extra time...

My Inspiration

I hope everyone has a wonderful, safe, relaxing holiday weekend!

It's that Time...

Snowboard, meet my Blogger friends..

Blogger friends, meet my Snowboard...




We have had some AWESOME times..



And NOT so fun times...


(these last two pics are not mine but I have done both-- I have been "that" chick)

I even think at one point I blacked out.. I mean I fell so hard on my back neck, my goggles AND my headband covering my ears FLEW OFF!! I just laid in the middle of the trail for about 5 minutes before I got up.

BUUUUUUUT....

If you have never been snowboarding, I highly recommend that you find the nearest slope.. whether you are big timin' in Vail or slidin' down the mountain on ice...

Ice you say? 

Yes.. the first time I ever went down the mountain it was covered in this unforgiving, treacherous sheet of ice.. And I lugged around about a 50 pound rental board...

And I still went back.

That's how much fun I had.

The next year I went, I thought I WAS in Vail BIG-TIMIN! It snowed and snowed.. and then snowed some more. AND, I was fortunate enough to have my own board this time.. a much lighter board I must add.


I thought I was Shaun White at the X-Games in all that snow..


That must've been the time I blacked out..

Anyhoo..

Last year the slopes were not so great on this side of my tracks and I really didn't have a chance to go..

However, this season, I.. AM.. GOING....

Even if I have to go for a day, SOLO..

It is WAY passed due and I cannot wait!!!


See ya on the slopes!

Sunday Social





Here for Sunday Social with Neely and Ashley.
This weeks questions are all about the Internet...



1. What is the first website you log on to each day?
I check my email.. and, SURPRISE, Crackbook.. err, Facebook

2. Give us some funny websites you visit that we need to know about.
Besides videos on YouTube I have no idea.. So I'll be looking forward to reading others to find some of these out!

3. Pinterest or Facebook? Why?
PINTEREST!!! How have we made it without it? I love being crafty and there are so many things you can do!

4. Twitter or Instagram? Why?
Instagram!! Twitter can be frustrating. I get on there every once in a blue moon these days.

5. Favorite youtube video...post it!
There are so many but I seriously think my fave is this one--- 


Soooo cute!!

I'll give you this one too.. These guys have more than just this video.. Needless to say, they are Pranksters for sure..



6. Biggest online pet peeve?
When I have written any kind of description for any website, I hit Submit, and NOTHING is there!! It could seriously make me SCREEEEAAAAMMMMMMM!!!


See you next Sunday! Hope everyone has a wonderful week!



Busy, Busy, Busy!

It has felt like a decade since I have written my last post! I have missed the blogging world.

So many things have been going on these days..

It is now 


until the BIG DAY!!

CRAAZZZYYYYY how the time is flying by! You feel like you have time, you have time, and then

BAM!

It is here! Crunch time to get everything done!

A couple of weeks ago Mom, our cousin Marcia, and I went and picked out my Mom's dress..


Isn't she gorgeous? 

And this is soooo not the color we chose. We weren't even going to try this dress because of the color but the Manager brought it to us at the end and talked us into trying it. We were glad she did! You never think the dress you don't want to try on will work but you never know! 

Mom and I also hosted a shower for my little brother's, sister (did you get all that?), last Saturday..


Aren't they precious? 
(I don't have a pic of all of us from the shower yet)

It was so much fun and their wedding is in ONE WEEK!!


Last Sunday we had our first shower. It was so much fun and at this super cute place!


If it was open today I would be working on this blog there! Coach is at Perfect Game today, and the Judson House has their own coffee shop with a cafe in the back. We got lots of great gifts. (And I am not going to lie, it was so awkward sitting in front of everyone opening them.) Since we feel like it is the right thing to do, we are waiting to use everything after we get married. It is soooo hard by the way! There are a few kitchen items I can't wait to try out. 

We also picked out our invitations this week. My Wedding Planner gave us these HUGE books to look thru. I wish I had a picture of how massive these things were. I seriously think they weighed 30 pounds a piece. We finally narrowed it down and I know they will be perfect!

I did get out for a little fun Friday night. Last minute opportunity to go see Toby Keith!

(Casey and Lindsey who I work with at the Salon)

It was a great time! We had two Charter buses escort everyone to Lakewood, had BBQ catered to us, (let me just say I do NOT care for BBQ but I have been thinking non-stop about how awesome that sandwich was!), and it was such a great crowd of awesome people. AND I ended up knowing more songs than I thought I did! Of course, he did sing the famous Red Solo Cup and had huge red, blow up cups on stage. 

Yesterday, I went over to my future Mom-in-laws house to take pics of all the stuff we have for the wedding. I want to use antique furniture and other family pieces for the ceremony and reception to give it a country, vintage feel and she has just about everything we need for that!  She is very crafty and has helped SO much with getting everything ready. I can't wait to see the final look the day of see everything put together. Stay tuned!

In a couple of weeks I have our second shower.. A kitchen shower!


I am sooo excited!

I am so thankful for what everyone is doing to help, giving showers, and just being supportive! It's a great feeling knowing you are loved and cared for.

Thankful Thursday




Today, I am thankful for having today off to be home with Coach...



...for the Kory Potts Golf Tournament, that was held Friday, to raise money for the Kory Potts Scholarship fund and the Leukemia Foundation... It was a beautiful day, a great turnout of family and friends, and $9000 was raised!



...for my busy day tomorrow at work!...

...for the 3 Amigos! No matter what kind of day I am having they always make me smile or laugh at their goofiness!...



...for gorgeous sunsets like this in our backyard...




Remember...

Light up the Sky

These pictures I felt deserved a post all by itself..

Last night I got a text from Coach telling me to go look outside at the sky.. I am so glad he told me to!!

I have always been a fan of sunsets and the way the sky was last night was absolutely gorgeous!

Hope you enjoy these!









The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Psalm 19:1



Fun Family Farm Day

What a gorgeous day here on the "farm".. 



Coach and I slept in this morning and then enjoyed a nice, sit-down breakfast that we rarely are able to have together. 

This is his famous breakfast concoction. YUM!

We kept the kitchen door open, enjoying the breeze this morning and a cooler temp of about 75. It feels like FALL!!! Which you know what that means.... it's that much closer to the wedding! And, for all the football fans out there... 

UGA kickoff is in 19 days! GOOOOO DAWWGSSS!!!!

Speaking of WEDDING, Coach decided he was going to continue his bush-hogging to get ready for the Big Day..

He LOVES his John Deere!

While he was doing that, me and The 3 Amigos, decided to go check out the site where this shindig is going to take place. (It has certainly been a work in progress!)

Love these Pups!




The "I Do" Spot

Still some work to get done but I KNOW it will get finished! We have got some good help around here.

There will also probably need to add some kind of algae-be-gone to the pond(if there is such a thing).. ITS DISGUSTING! 


Just ask Kylee--


WAS TRYING TO GET


AND ENDED UP LOOKING LIKE A



Can anyone say BATH TIME???


Here are some more candids from our walk this afternoon...
