This is the cutest proposal!

Just found this and it made me tear up. Maybe it is wedding in general or maybe it is this proposal. But I just got so excited to get married all over again!

Weekend Recap - I only drank a little bit!

Friday - Movie night with WF. We watched a few shows and then Lethal Weapon 3. Don't ask. 

Saturday - We got up and took our puppy for a hike out by Emma Long Park. It was amazing and a great work out. We even took Harry off his leash for most of the hike and he did not run away! It was amazing and a big test of my trust and faith in both Harry and WF. He ran away from me as a puppy and I still have not gotten over it. Anyway we then headed over to the "Dog Day Afternoon" event at the Triangle. Saw lots of doggies and had lunch outside. We then got cleaned up did some wedding errands and headed for a huge meal at Canoli Joe's. 

Sunday - I got up and cheered on many friends but specifically Kelly who was a total rock star! We had a great time checking out costumes and cheering on people. We then headed to Sagra for brunch. I love that place now and I am obsessed with having some sort of wedding event there. I then passed out for a few hours after having one too many mimosas. Hung out at the house and did more wedding research. 

I am looking forward to this week and getting lots done in preparation for my trip to Houston to see my family! 

Just one shout out to my FABULOUS friend Kate who is turning 27 today. She is amazing and I wanted her to know I was thinking of her on her big day! :) 

Lovely Lunch

Sometimes I am so lucky to have my future husband comes meet me for lunch. Today lunch at the Texas capitol grounds!

It was really bright out. But what a nice lunch date! 

Funny things my future husband says...

My future husband is funny and I don't think he knows it. This morning we were talking about the "good looking dude bracket" they are doing on the radio. Anywho I said something like of course Brad Pitt is going to win, I mean he is freaking Brad Pitt. He turns to me and says the following:

"Brad Pitt is a fucking god. I would give my left nut to be Brad Pitt. It would not matter because once I am Brad Pitt I could make my own ball grow back. Because I am a god of course."

I proceeded to choke on my tooth paste and tell him I loved him...

"We need to tape ourselves in bed"

This is what I said last night to WF while laughing hysterically about the stupid things we say to each other while falling asleep. We defiantly do not need to tape ourselves "in bed" at all! We had about a 20 minute laugh fest about his fear of the dentist and that I should go first and tell him if the dentist hurt me or not. REALLY. Anyway moving on to the real topic.

Do any of you watch the TV show "Cougar Town"? The show is really entertaining. This week on "Cougar Town" the married couple on the show had a conversation the WF have almost every other week. It started off with the husband kissing on the neck while the wife is doing dishes. She turns and just says, "No way." He, shocked, says, "Can't I love on you?", she then says, "I know what those kisses mean and they do not mean 'I love you'"

Have you ever been folding laundry or doing dishes and the man in your life does the "romance" thing then? REALLY? Right now? Me folding laundry is getting you all hot? No, not going to happen. I was comforted by the fact that it must be a pretty common occurrence because it was on a TV show. I hope I am not alone in thinking this was a funny exchange. Maybe you had to see it?

Weekend Recap

Source

Believe it or not I did not get that drunk this weekend. You are so proud I know. I instead ate my weight in crawfish at our friend's crawsifh boil on Saturday. I, until very recently had never had a crawfish. Then my friends Kelly and her husband "D" introduced me to the wonderful little things. I love 'em! Their brother in law does a boil every year around Easter time and this year was no exception. The boiled over 132 pounds of crawfish for about 100 people. In addition to this they had crabs, potatoes, artichokes, asparagus, garlic, cornbread and all sorts of deserts. It was magical.

Best part of it my future mother in law had a blast. She does not drink beer but she tried beer. She does not really eat spicy food but she ate all the creole seasoning we threw at her. I was really proud of her for trying something new.

Easter Sunday we went to brunch at Z-Tejas and then headed home to have a fun egg hunt and eat lost of candy. All in all a pretty simple but totally fun weekend.

Happy belated Easter to you all!

First Dress Fitting

I had my first dress fitting today and I wanted to give you all an update.

Some background first. I got my dress last August when my mom was in town for only one weekend. I really wanted her to be there and I was glad that she and my sister were able to help me pick out my dress. But I made my choice very quickly. I really think mom and sister helped pick out a dress that was just right for me. The dress came in just after Christmas and I went to try it on with Janet. Well, it was HUGE and did not feel like it was the same dress at all. I started to get a bit nervous that I had chosen the wrong dress for me. The whole shape of the dress was different.

Today I had the dress all pinned in. I added the corset to make my boobs be in the right place. I had my shoes on to make me look taller. I feel much better about it but I am not going to lie I am still feeling apprehensive about the whole thing. I still wonder if the fit of the dress is throwing me off.

I love the dress don't get me wrong but I am always going to wonder if it is just right. I feel like when I have it on I get very out of body with my thoughts. My dress does not feel like my dress anymore but just another object I am analyzing and critiquing. I look at it and I think wow so pretty and I feel like I am playing dress up in someone else's big girl wedding dress. Kind of like I am not "grown up" enough for this yet. Did anyone else feel this way? I have heard many brides question their dress at some point during the planning process. I am sure it is the right dress just still feels funny to be dressed up like a bride.

I am sure this feeling is just me being weird.
