Monday
It’s Monday again – I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
Mike had Friday night off – this doesn’t happen very often these days, so we went to Happy Hour with our friends Chad and Lindsey… and, we got home around 2AM. We love them for this reason (and many more). We met up with plenty of other people throughout the night, and had a great time getting to catch up!
Mike at Happy Hour – seriously so happy in the 90 degree weather. Do you like his strategically placed wedding band in this one too? It looks like it was on purpose, but I swear this wasn’t posed!!
Saturday I ran to the grocery store and came home to a package on the front porch – I was SUPER excited to find that our wedding album came! I used snapfish – it’s really nothing insanely fancy, but I freaking LOVE it. Mike and I both looked at it a number of times. We would love to go back and do it all over again.
Saturday night my oldest friend got married! Both he and his bride were giddy, it was so sweet to see! We realized shortly before the wedding that Mike’s cousin actually knows the bride and was also going to the wedding, so we got to see family and celebrate with friends from high school!
Sunday was a classic Sunday – I did a whole lot of nothin. Chores around the house – spent more time than I care to admit cleaning/organizing our closet and doing laundry. I had apparently been avoiding this for some time.
Sunday night we curled up in bed and watched The Vow – the one with Channing Tatum. (and by “we” I mean me – Abby and Mike curled up and fell asleep) I had wanted to see the movie for a while, but I try not to drag Mike to these chick flick type movies – these are set aside for girls night out. That way I’m not forced to see anything I don’t want to see either! I heard mixed reviews – I actually really liked the movie, but I hated the abrupt ending. I wanted to see them get back together and Paige regain her memory! Oh well.
I want to call out two posts that I have already read this morning and LOVE by other bloggers I know:
Christina Main of Sweet Lavender Bake Shoppe posted this – it’s an honest post about what it’s really like to be a blogger, and her opinions on what’s happening in the blog world. I love when people are honest in their posting. Sometimes as a blogger you shy away from giving too much of yourself away to this virtual world. I might not have the same experiences as her (I’m still very naive as far as the blog world goes), but I’m proud that she had the courage to write her honest to goodness opinion. Side note: If you have a child’s birthday party coming up – find her on Etsy here – she makes the GREATEST treats, they are so cute! The hello kitty cupcake toppers are my favorite!
On a less serious note – Meghann over at Meals and Miles posted this about a race she ran this past weekend – NAKED. Yes, she ran a 5k naked. I think it’s awesome. I give her major props for this. I’m struggling to run a race with clothes on I can’t imagine one without clothing – you go girl!
Enjoy!
