bREw.BeNeFit.bAlAnce

On Saturday July 9 we went to a benefit for a good cause. At BBC in St.Matthews to raise money to help pay back hospital bills for one of Nathan's Brothers friends. There was a band, brews, food, corn-hole and more. We did not stay long, but long enought at spend at least $30 which will go towards the benefit to reduce the balance of the hospital bill.

Above is a picture of Nathan, Colette(Nathans sister in law) and I at the Benefit outside of BBC.
It was the perfect night, an amazing crowd came out to support which was awesome to see. :)

teRVIs tUMbLeR..

So Nathan has been talking about these CUPS for months now.
How cool they are and how much he WANTS one but wont spend the money.
Which for him is a smart decision because Nathan looses things oh to QUICKLY.
I have honestly always thought they were great cups too.
So my fab friend AMBER at work went on VACA and BROUGHT me this little GIFT home.
AND OF COURSE i had to RUB in NATHANS face that I have a TERVIS TUMBLER with my INITIAL on it!! :)

tHanKS AMBeR! :)

hOme UpDAte..

Everything is going so well for Nathan & I with the whole Home Process, I couldnt be happier!!!

The Appraisal was this morning, and I am sure that went wonderfully, I hope!! FINGERS CROSSED!

Found an amazing deal for our Homeowners Insurance yesterday, I feel like its a Steel!

I have been so nervous through the whole process, because I am a detailed person and I have to know everything and ask alot of Questions. And its turning out like a dream come true, Im so excited to move into a beautiful home and GROW, LIVE, and Raise a FAMILY there ONE day.

This is one of the Biggest accomplishments of my life and Im lucky to share if with my Fiance, right before our big day arrives..

ONLY 105 DAYS UNTIL THE WEDDING DAY IS HERE...

ONLY 25 DAYS UNTIL WE CLOSE ON THE HOUSE!!!

                                       i THANK GOD eVERYday FOR our BLESSINGS!!


XOXOXO

I love to search the internet for vintage,classic ideas for my wedding this Fall. I was told about a great website called etsy.com by my florist and I have been obcessed ever since!! I have wanted to add as many personal touches to my wedding day as possible. And one thing that is very important to have is a CARD Box right??? Well I am so detailed and do not like the typical. SO I was on etsy.com and I came across a card box that I LOVED, and decided I can make this myself using my wedding colors and it will be gorgeous! So I have posted a picture below of the box I found.  I have recruited my maid of honor Kirby to help me and we are both very excited to start the project, more than likly in the next month or so. Preferably after I move into my new home, because that is my priority at this moment. I will document the process, I think it will be fun to show the process to everyone, to continue the fun creativity on your wedding day! Everyone loves new ideas and to see how its made, so whenever I can I love to pass it along..
Anyways below is the picture, let me know what you think???

tHiRd Of July: BaNd pERRy

On July 3rd we went down to the waterfront for the free concert and fireworks with friends, above is a pic of some of us, meaning there were about 5 other people with us. We were very excited to see The Band Perry and spend some time with our friends for free because everyone knows most everything we do is not free!! For Nathan and I free is great right now considering we are in then process of closing on our first home, YAY, we have to cheap right now which is hard for me but honestly I am pretty impressed with myself lately.

Home Update: We have about 28 days until closing!!!!!! EKK! We are very excited and I will continue to keep you posted esp when we move in!!

This fourth of July was great, tonight we went to Nathans parents and grilled with the family and had our own Fireworks thanks to Mike, Nathans oldest brother for bringing the entertainment. As I am typing I can hear more going off so I am going to see say bye for now and go enjoy the show from our back yard!
