apologies and engagements

first of all, let me start off by saying "sorry", i have been away for far to long. Here are a few reasons why: insanity, sickness, lack of originality and a new endeavor. 


insanity, the work-out. and yes it is insane. 
the mr. was sick and well i guess i pretended like i was sick as well?
i have not been at this blog very long but have decided i would like to be a little more original with it. it's not exactly easy as there are blogs i am inspired by daily but don't want to copy.
and last, the new endeavor. i have started working part time in floral design. i am working with the lovely whitney randall of branch design studios. (stoked!)


now on the engagement. i realized i have not shown ya'll my engagement pictures! so here are a few of my faves!

honeymoonin it

yes the mr. and i have been married since september. yes that was almost 5 months ago. and yes, he just now got our pics developed (as a sweet vday present) :). you see, i left our digital camera at home and didn't realized until we were in the charlotte airport. boo :( so, we bought a disposable camera and just had to hope that some of the 19 pictures we took turned out. and they did! well at least as well as one would expect them to. so here are a few for you to look at. no one else has seen these except me and the mr., so you could say this is an exclusive showing just for you.

prime example of needing a digital camera

i laugh out loud every time i look at that cute little face :)

now i'm off to make some valentines day dinner with the mr.

currently i am watching the grammys, eating burgers and homemade fries with the mr. and loving all of the following:

this would look perfect in my kitchen

would probably spend most of it's time empty

but still

i will make one of these for our next place
