raging cajun bride-to-be.

my gorgeous friend heather is getting

married this friday!

 here's a few pics from her shower.

heather + me. 

we bought heather + mike that huge bowl,

it's so delicate & beautiful, like ceramic lace.

heather's aunt made her this ridiculous quilt.

the most amazing group of humans.

lucky, lucky me.

farm trip.

we took a trip down to the farm

over slim's spring break..

our newphews, owen + oliver have tongues.

owen & slim braved pappy jack.

oliver & i did not.

boot, mini boot + me.

i'm meg.

i took the 'which little woman are you'

buzzfeed quiz and i got meg. 

of course, i would have loved to get jo,

but i'm just so thankful i didn't get beth...

*don't know why i didn't want to be beth?

shame on you, go read the book.

shoes.

i have a few pairs of shoes...

taking it one pair at a time.

lion king live.

for my birthday, lea bought tickets

to the lion king at the fox.

what an absolutely incredible show.

lea & i were in tears within minutes of the start. 

blues & brews for barry.

need an event planned? call lea.

lea put on an amazing event for our friends,

the costello family. it was a super fun fundraiser to help

send barry to a speech clinic in michigan.

the event was at red hare brewing co. in marietta.

the brews were tasty & the blues were rocking!

my pops came!
you can't tell from this pic, but he was having a blast!

k+b ventured outside of the perimeter play!
hunk-a hunk-a burning love.

my raffy.

we took the brewery tour.

that sign says something about 'taking a keg'

from this room will result in death or something.

jared & emily touching things they shouldn't.

our amazing gym really showed their support!

*working out with people you like really helps

motivate you to continue working out!

barry & his lovely ladies.

i am so proud of lea. 

she is such a compassionate & supportive friend.

look up.

this is amazing.

it might seem crazy that i am posting this

on a blog, but i love this message.

i am constantly trying to unplug more.

i am just as guilty of looking down when 

i should be looking up & connecting.

i am easily annoyed when i am with people

& they're looking down.
it just doesn't feel good.

let's encourage each other to look up.
there's nothing on our phones that's
more important than friends (in the flesh).

two things.

a monday mantra for wednesday.

hello there.

i'm back in action.

i took a break from blogging to do a 

bunch of pretty good things. get ready, i'm 

about to show+tell you all about them.

how have you been?
