Moving 101

We are moving into our new house tomorrow!

I have mixed emotions to be honest.

Here are my tips:

1. Don't pack things you will need too early, save yourself the frustration
2. Have plenty of boxes
3. Have a plan
4. You will break something
5. You will lose something
6. You will find this item many moons later
7. Have time to pack by yourself, but allow time to pack together

8. When you are about to verbally assault the other person for packing wrong... take a breath. and have fun... and take pictures.

Taking a bunch of terrible, cheesy, couple pictures always can cheer me up.

My family is coming this weekend to help us move. . .  i can't wait to see everybody.

Girl Friends

Is there anything better than going out with your girlfriends?

Forgetting about all there is to do at home, catching up with one another, enjoying dinner and cocktails...

Its amazing how i only knew a few girls here in my city less than a year ago, and now i feel like i have been blessed with some amazing ladies in my life.

Make hanging out with your friends a priority, life is too short.

Tulips

Finding beauty in nature all over my neighborhood.

Especially tulips.

I'm a sucker for tulips.

Mother's Day

For mother's day this year, my mom and my grandmum came to visit me.

We went out for lunch, did some shopping, and got pedicures.

My grandma will be 79 this year and this was her first ever pedicure! She enjoyed it, guess she didn't know what she was missing.

I am so blessed to have such amazing women as role models in my life.

To all you mom's out there, Happy Mother's Day!

I think the overall theme of this video is very clear. The wardrobe, music, and setting all come together to create this visual and mind stimulating piece. A little eerie at times, ya?

Kentucky Derby

Last weekend we attended the Kentucky Derby! Nick and I want to travel as much as possible and have many adventures together.

So why not leave our lovely home state during a blizzard in May? Beats me, so off to the races we went and met up with another lovely couple and enjoyed the weekend in Louisville together.

(here is a picture of our car the day we left-- look hard its under the tree)

I only won on the bet i made during the first race on the horse "Glamour Puss"

We had such a fun time, we hope to make it back there again!
