I love how red really dresses up this outfit!  Love raspberry flavoring on my Starbucks as well!  I might have to change this to a hot coffee here soon.

Weddings


Sean and I got to go to a wedding earlier this month to celebrate one of his fraternity brothers, John Temple and his now wife Cianna get married!  It was a blast and the weather turned out perfect!  Congrats to a beautiful couple.

Loved the color choice: lime green with dark blue.  I love lime green so it won me over.



The wedding took place downstairs at the winery in the basement with the wine barrels (see below). Flower girl walking down the aisle.

Cianna and her dad walking down.

So cute!

Such a happy couple!

Loved this idea: having the wedding party escorted in a trolley back to the reception.




Such a beautiful reception overlooking the vineyard. Sean and Alex catching up.


Yummy cupcakes!  

I love weddings and cannot wait for the next one on Saturday!  My old neighbor is getting married!

Adoption on our Hearts

Sean and I have been discussing adopting more seriously and are researching it online.  We are going to seriously pray for a year (since July) and then apply for adoption.  We wanted to adopt in Haiti, but found out that if you want to adopt from Haiti you have to be over the age of 35 and have been married for over 10 years.  Well, I have 11 years until I am 35 and Sean and I just celebrated our 2 year anniversary....so we are thinking God is leading us to other countries.  We are looking at possibly Ethiopia or Nigeria.  I was researching and came across this amazing adoption blog and their video made me cry.  It was so awesome!!! Please check out their beautiful story on their blog: Good to be Crazy.  They are a beautiful family following the Lord's will for their life. Watch their video here: Real adoption video.

I wanna do this for my home



I just love those Mr. and Mrs. pillows and how they are not just for newlyweds but for married couples as well.  I hope I can find them or maybe get really crazy and make them :).




I would just love to be more organized and to have the inside of my cupboards be useable to write on and to plan.  Oh, maybe one day...

Monroe Fair Rodeo

Sean has been dying for me to see a real rodeo.  I have never been to one in my entire life.  So we went to the fair with my family a couple weekends ago and decided to see the rodeo.  Sean was really disappointed because the arena was tiny and they did not do a very good job getting the little calf according big rodeo standards.  They have the Emmett Rodeo every year in his hometown so he was a little discouraged when it came to the Seattle style rodeo and not the Idaho rodeos.  I had no expectations and thought it was fun, so I guess we shall see what I think of a real rodeo.

PS sorry the photos are so bad, the quality of my camera indoors was terrible.
