Today started off with a bowl of fruity pebbles in my Grandaddys flannel shirt and knee high argyle socks.
Most of the rest of my day was spent editing pictures but here were a few things that stuck out.
Klaus and I heard a knock on the door and opened it to meet the mailman with a package for ME! My mom and stepdad recently went on a trip to New Orleans and she found a hand tooled leather purse at one of the vintage shops on Magazine Street, and it had arrived.
I then started getting ready to go to the salon, when I decided to check on Klaus who was in the back yard playing. He was nowhere to be seen. It turns out the little jerk jumped the fence and was stuck in our neighbors backyard. Great. Now we have to put up a privacy fence in the back.
I got my bangs cut. I haven’t had bangs since I was about five. I like them, even though she didnt do exactly what I asked and they’re a tid too short. But thats fine because they’ll be grown out by next week!
Better pics to come.
I came home and watched some more Clarissa Explains It All and found some of the old commercials from Nick Classic, that they are sure to show on my stinking channel when they create it.
This is an old friend who was a bridesmaid in the wedding I shot this past weekend. She definitely needs to quit her day job and start work as a supermodel. She doesn’t even need to worry about starting as JUST a model, they will not accept her application and tell her she is overqualified for the position.
If you’ve never been to 100 Layer Cakes blog, it is a fantabulous wedding planning blog. I’ve been married for over a year now, so I no longer need wedding ideas, but I still love this blog! The best part is their colorboards.
This is my fave! Go check out some more at 100 Layer Cake.
I just spent the weekend in Gulf Shores, Alabama (where my mom lives) to celebrate her wedding. I was her maid of honor and photographer. We didnt get to do alot but we did get to see and spend time with family members so we had a really good time…just wish we could have stayed longer!
We arrived at my mothers house on Thursday evening – hungry and tired.
This is my mothers backyard. Am I jealous? Why yes, yes I am.
We feasted on baked chicken and peas and played beauty parlor with my new short hair all while watching the football game. The Steelers were playing and they are my new step dads team so they were pretty pumped.
Friday we took the pup to the beach for the first time. He wasn’t as impressed as we thought he would be and he wanted NOTHING to do with the water. We walked four miles on the beach that morning. I didnt take my camera because it was going to rain! BOO! We then went to the resort Caribe to scope out the site of the wedding, which was beautiful. On the way there I realized……I FORGOT MY FRIGGIN DRESS IN HUNTSVILLE!!!!! Yes…six and a half hours away and the only thing I forgot. I panicked and demanded we go all the way to Huntsville and back for my perfect dress. Which didnt happen.
My perfect beach wedding dress that I didnt get to wear.
So we took a little last minute trip to Cordova Mall in Pensacola, Florida where I found a suitable dress at Dillards. All I have to say is I’m glad I was the only bridesmaid.
New beach wedding dress. Not me in it.
I then pushed my regular healthy eating to the side and indulged in some Mellow Mushroom. I let the husband pick the pizza since he had to drive to Pensacola for me. Can you guess what he picked?
Mighty Meaty!
My grandparents, Uncle Danny, Cousin Ernest, and a close friend of the family Jeannie arrived that afternoon so we headed over to their condo at The Beach Club. We ate boiled shrimp, listened to tunes, then watched Hot Fuzz.
It was windy on the balcony.
This is one of my favorite movies if you havent seen it, please do so.
Saturday was the day of the wedding. There was dancing. There was Sushi. There was a crooked cake. There were lots of pictures. There were sore muscles. I will post some pictures when I am done editing them.
We left today after eating more shrimp, along with some crab claws and hush puppies, at Docs Seafood in Orange beach.
Docs is a place where the locals go, its my moms favorite place to eat seafood. Our server was at the wedding the day before!
