Happy Holidays...


I wanted to wish everyone very Happy Holidays.  I've been working like a crazy person (loving just about every min of it) and I am STOKED for 2012. 

 I want to set tons of new goals for myself and being a better blogger is one of them.  

See you next year!

Wedding Photos (Sneek Peek)

Our photographer sent us a few sneak peeks of our wedding photos and I love how they came out.  Its kind of funny because some of them I look at my face and think…LOL…but there was so much fun and laughter going on that day, it’s a true expression of my pure happiness.  (Plus were  kind of GOOF BALLS, so I am surprised at what she got from what she was working with…LOL) 





Also, I felt like a cheap stripper by time the day was over, my DIY glitter shoes...OH LORDY.  Lets just say I totally got a lesson on how NOT to put 10 pounds of glitter on shoes.  Three weeks later and were still finding glitter all over the place.

Weekend Recap...Honeymoon

Were back, things are slowing down and getting back to normal.

Our trip involved lets of lounging, eating amazing food and tons and tons of WALKING. Oh my…my little leggies were aching every night after all the walking we did, but we got to see a ton of the city. The bed and breakfast we stayed at was pretty darn amazing and we are already thinking about going back for our 1 year anniversary next year.


I think most of all I enjoyed just spending time together, doing nothing and getting to know each other on a new level…a husband and wife level. We’ve been together for almost 5 years, but every day I get the privilege of learning something new about the person I love.  (Like how he was able to hide getting me an AMAZING gift for our trip)


Now that were home, were figuring out our next step. Right before our wedding I got offered a pastry position at a very trendy restaurant here in town. So far I’ve only worked a week, but I LOVE it. Its confirmed, reaffirmed and proven that this is what I was put on this earth to do everyday. My days are SUPER early, but it hasn’t felt like work yet and that’s such a blessing.

At this moment in my life I don’t think I could be any happier.

Here are some random photos taken on our trip...we had so many photos it was just WAY too many posts. (Like I said we did ALOT of eating!!!)

Weekend Recap...

This weekend actually felt normal…I got to sleep in, or at least tried to. My body must be use to get up early, because I tried my darndest, but I was up super early.

Friday was a Holiday so we had the whole day to spend together and it was great. The boy has started running, and since the weather was pretty awesome me and Loco went along to do a little walking.

 We went out with friends for drinks and dinner…and someone had WAY too many mimosa’s and lost their wallet, only to realize it the next day, then they found out by the restaurant that a good Samaritan had turned it in. Go to pick it up from the restaurant to find it was run over and one of my cards was broken and the others were bent up. I am just elated that someone turned them in…and I can still use them until I get my new ones in the mail.

Saturday we tried a new local ice cream place in town called “Lick”….AMAZING is all I can say.




We got to try so many unique and fun flavors, and I settled on Carrot/Tarragon and Vanilla Bean, while the boy ended up with mix mosh of four flavors…one including cilantro lime…which was EXCELLENT.


Movies later that night to see “Immortals’, which was just okay. (Totally should have waited for Netflix) Finished off the weekend with wedding hair pieces and boutonnières and baked butter and sugar.


The only thing freaking me out, is the forecast of rain this weekend.  Its pouring as I am typing and I am hoping we don't endure it this weekend....BOO!!

Recap...

This week has already been super busy and it’s only Wednesday. Monday we went and picked up our marriage license. For some reason I thought it was going to be this long drawn out process, but it was SUPER QUICK. We picked a number, not even 5 minutes later we were at the front desk, paying our fee and signing off on our paperwork. (So, theres not backing out now...LOL)


Tuesday the boy’s office threw us a wedding shower. Now, I have to be honest I was totally against this whole process. I didn’t want any showers, and when he told me his office wanted to do something I was all for bailing out. I have to say they shocked and surprised me and totally went all out. There was tons of food, and gifts and someone even made us a wedding cake. 

At this point I think were just ready for the day to get here and for HONEYMOON TIME!! I can't even explain how excited and stoked I am for our trip.  

Also, as of last week I am offically a CERTIFIED Pastry Chef.  Graduation won't be until April, but its feels good to be accomplished with one of many goals.  November has been so good to me, and its just the beginning!!
