Well, I arrived in Texas two hours late, but I arrived via first class! I’ll take it! Who knew there was unlimited alcohol up there….And three course dinners. It was quite an enjoyable experience, especially because of the beautiful sunset I got to witness over the western sky. Sadly, I missed the opening dinner because of the delay, which involved lots of Tex-mex and, as Matt described, plentiful fruity, girly drinks:) I still managed to walk around the resort (we’re…

Guys, I’m heading west for an unexpected vacation! Matt’s attending a summer conference with his company and he got to bring a guest at no additional cost. And guess who he picked!!?? source So I’m heading to a resort in Dallas tonight!! To say I’m pumped would be an understatement. I’m not exactly sure what I’ll be doing there, except eating free Tex-mex and checking out the pool. Sounds like the perfect vacation to me! I’ll report back. Adios.…
Guys, my weekend was absolutely packed!! Matt and I are trying to explore as much as possible, as we only have 3 free weekends left in Atlanta (we’re traveling a lot in July for various events). I’m exhausted, but so so content:) I’m gonna give you the quick version of the weekend recap: Prickly pear margaritas and seafood paella at La Fonda Hiking to the top of Stone Mountain Tastes of beer at the Tap in Midtown Delicious shrimp, fish,…
I’m back in Atlanta after a week at home for wedding planning and a weekend trip to my cousin’s wedding! The wedding was amazing and soo sweet. It took place in an outdoor chapel, so I got front row seating. The ceremony was quite emotional and very beautiful. I think it made Matt and I nervous to say our vows:) My cousin Chris (the bride’s brother), is a talented musician and he performed during the ceremony – you can hear…
When you’re in a house built in the 1800’s, the internet isn’t so reliable. I was just in the middle of wedding research when it disappeared (publishing this hours later). Earlier in the day, I had found my DREAM wedding coordinator/florist/decor person who works closely with a cake person all-in-one and was so pumped to be using her for everything, and just before I booked the package, I found out someone else swooped in and took my date. While it’s…
Howdy, I’ve been trying to relax at home this week, but things have been hectic as usual. There’s some complications with my job in the fall (that I hope to share with you soon), so I’ve been dealing with that since Monday. In between that, I’ve been feasting on watermelon, cooking tilapia burgers for my parents, and attempting to come up with a guest list that’s less than 160 people (not fun). This evening, I had dinner with a friend…
I was having one of those lazy mornings in Atlanta. I packed for my trip home, cleaned up the kitchen, looked at wedding cakes online, and went for a run. I had planned my morning so that I could make lunch and then take public transportation to the airport for my flight home (I’m flying because we’re going straight to a wedding and then I’m flying back to Atlanta). So at 12:30, while I was eating my sandwich, I was…
Well, summer is off to a great start (knock on wood)! This weekend was totally relaxing and packed with awesome food. Our neighborhood seems so peaceful and I feel happier than I have in weeks. Matt just finished his first week of his internship, so he was pretty much content just resting and eating all weekend. Friday night, we headed to Decatur for dinner. LOVE this area! I could definitely see myself here as a 30-something. We grabbed a beer…
Sometimes six hours in the car isn’t the worst way to spend a Monday:) I packed snacks and listened to all my old cd’s from high school. It’s weird how songs can bring back specific memories. Highlights: Ataris – San Dimas High School Football Rules Tim McGraw – Greatest Hits Cd Jo Dee Messina – Burn Cd The Starting Line – Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now Reality Bites Soundtrack Where The Heart Is Soundtrack Jimmy Eat World – Clarity Cd…
