Happy WEEK!!!

So...I'm getting married this week!  MARRIED to my love!  Yay!  I can't wait!


My bachelorette party this weekend was a BLAST!  My friends did a wonderful job planning and that night was just what I needed!  We took a pole dancing class and had such a great time.  There was a lot of laughing and spinning and if you knew us, you'd laugh too :)  I don't have the pictures, but they are in a super secret vault never to be released.  It is actually a fitness studio they teach it in, if you ever get a chance, I'd totally recommend taking a class for a girls night.  I don't dance, like at all, and I loved it!

Thursday night, I enjoyed the Braves game with my friend Andrew and then learned to love nothing other than
frozen yogurt bars----->Now that's my kind of bar!!
I'd never been before and I can't believe I've lived my life so long without going to a place like that.  Me, the lover of ice cream.  But, don't worry.  I've made up for lost time.  I had it again on Friday night :) 
I met a couple of my running girls for sushi and they insisted we take a Friday tequila shot.  I'm not a huge shot drinker, much less of tequila (yuck) but they promised me Patron was the best...so...I agreed if they gave me a lot more lime
Um...more like tequila on the rocks=3 shots?  What kind of shot was that?!
I must tell you, sushi does not help much when it comes to drinks like the one pictured above, but it is pretty
So, once again, I had frozen yogurt bar and that definitely helped :)

I also finished our place cards Friday night.  Three of my bridesmaids came over and hung out and I wrote and wrote, but I think they're cute and more importantly...DONE!  That about checks off my list (hopefully!) But we had a fun girls night x 2.  

It was a wonderful weekend!  Only 5 more days!!!


The ?'s

1. If you won the title of Miss America, what would your platform be?
I think my platform would be health in America.  Our country is so unhealthy.  We have a lazy attitude, we eat poorly and way too much and I think we really need to educate people.  I know people hear about it but we need programs that teach people the value of being healthy and that it's ok to eat things you like, it's just about moderation.  I've never heard a person who has changed their eating habits to a more healthy style and started to exercise, say they regret it.  It just makes you feel better and we need to encourage that, especially for children and future generations.  I feel like we aren't too far off from Wall-E.  You know...


2. Outdoorsy or Indoorsy?
I love being outdoors!  Give me water near by=even better.  We spend every weekend during the summer/fall outdoors...boating mostly, trips to the beach and the football games!  

3. Pajama's out in public..classy or tacky?
Tacky.  It's cute when you're 5 and your parents would take you to the video store I guess, but no.  How much effort does it take to throw on a shirt and pair of shorts before leaving the house?  Not a whole lot and you look a lot better.

4. What's your favorite room in your house?
I'm torn between the bedroom and family room + kitchen combo.  We're revamping the house still and hanging decorations, so I'm just starting to love the house so much more.  We look like we live in a grown up house now...like whoa.

5. Nook, Kindle, or book?
I haven't really used either, so I'd have to stay with book for now.  I've thought about getting a Kindle though.  Anyone out there just love them?

6. Would you rather wear the same outfit for a week or not brush your teeth for a week?
Wear an outfit for the week for sure.  I hate having socks on my teeth!  (That's what I call dirty teeth)  To me that is the worst thing.  Plus, you didn't say I couldn't wash the outfit, so I assume I'd be doing laundry every night :)

7. What's your favorite blog at the moment?
I can't choose just one.  I really do enjoy reading all of the blogs on my reading list.

8. Lately i've been daydreaming about.........?
My wedding and honeymoon...but mostly the honeymoon.  I'm excited to be married to John, and I think the day will be awesome, but I'm over the actual wedding stuff.  I'm dreaming about laying out in the sun on our cruise ship, spending interrupted time together (which we haven't had in forever) and of course, just honeymooning :)  I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him!

Back to our regularly scheduled blogging...

I apologize for my little whine last week.  I just needed some rest.  I did get some much needed rest the next couple days following that, so I was a much happier girl!

I left for my work trip Thursday and it was cold.  I'm not a fan of their kind of cold.  Yuck!  I much prefer Florida "cold".  When John drove me to the airport Saturday morning at 5:15am, it was 18 degrees in November.  Ugh. I couldn't live up north like that.  I had a layover in Minneapolis and they had snow everywhere.  It was pretty, but it was November!  No thanks.  I'll suck up the ridiculously hot summers, just so I don't have to deal with frigid winters.  I guess it's all what you're used to...people probably think I'm nuts for living through the miserable Florida summers, but I'll stay with what I know :)

We had our mini girls weekend for the 1/2 marathon!
We went to see

then ate

then

to get ready for

The day was a great success!  Christy, Ashley, and Christy's mom finished their first 1/2 marathon and they all did awesome!  Every one of them met or exceeded their goals for finishing!  I'm so excited for all of them!  Plus, it was a great time to spend with my lady friends :)

A picture after we had all finished!  It was really sunny!

Congrats Ladies!

Now, Lily and I are snuggled up on the couch waiting for John!  Oh how I've missed my little fur-ball!
