Love in Technicolor... the wedding photo booth!

I have yet to upload any pictures from my camera or my moms camera... BUT... I did order my prints from the photo booth.

BTW- to anyone who is getting married... I highly recommend doing something like this at the reception. If your guests are photo-tarded like I am, they will regret not taking enough pictures at the wedding and wish they had more... and these ones turn out so CUTE!!! Here they are...

The first 3 are of Matt and I... and the last 3 are of Kimberly, Annie, Erin and I 

SO FUN!! I will do a full post on the wedding weekend as soon as I have those silly pictures loaded and edited... who knows when that will be!!!

Everyone have a fabulous labor day weekend!!

I am off to Seattle...

...for the wedding of these 2 love birds...

Everyone have a wonderful weekend!!!

An Inspiring Friend

Alright... so its been about 5 months since I have posted anything. Clearly I am not too fabulous at being a "blogger". I went and had wine at my dear friend Whitney's place last night and she showed me her fabulous blog. I was jealous at how amazing and intricate it is. She is one of those amazing people who sees a dress she likes and instead of paying through the teeth for it she actually MAKES IT HERSELF. While I am pretty good about making my own pillows and throws... I can't exactly say that I am a crafty person compared to her. I mean honestly... how hard is it to sew a pillow... its four straight lines!

Before I ramble on anymore about my buddy Whit (See pic of the 2 of us above on her birthday at Sweet Cheeks Vineyard), I need to get back on track with the purpose of this post. In an attempt to fill you in on the goings on of my life... I am going to back track 5 months and put up a post a day for the next week as a sort of "cliffsnotes" of what has been going on. When I finish that... I will begin to blog more about my daily life. I mean... I am no rock star here... but I love my life and I feel I should probably share it with everyone more than I have been... Thats all for now!

Part 1: New Years Eve and Rose Bowl Game

So many things have happened since my last post at Christmas... lets start with New Years...I had the good fortune of being able to go down to Los Angeles for the Rose Bowl game and celebrating the New Year with some really great friends. So much fun and excitement. It was a wonderful time and because Eugene is within driving distance of LA (well- kind of)... It was almost as if every Duck fan on the west coast was in LA for this game. Which was phenomenal.... even though we lost. :)

At the game... The thing about the Rose Bowl is that you can't really be mad if you win or lose... the fact that you are even there is good enough!

Gorgeous night in Pasadena! Such a cool stadium... however I do have to say I am still biased towards Autzen! :)
Taken in the cab on the way back to our hotel on NYE. Talk about a fun night... we all got the giggles... it may or may not have been the copious amounts of Champagne we drank...
Taken at Saddle Ranch... as you can see- they take their drinks seriously... I am holding one of their famous martinis... topped with cotton candy... There was definitely a cotton candy fight later in the evening.

Looking back at these photos makes me laugh at how all around ridiculous this trip was! I am very lucky to have people in my life who are so spontaneous and enjoy life as much as I do...

More recapping to come! :)
