the dancing laura

last thursday i ate my first macaroon, and i must say, i think they are over rated. yes, they were yummy. and yes, they were pretty. and yes, i would definitely eat them again, but i still prefer a cupcake. cupcakes, i am on your side!

and now for some photos from the two football games handsome and i were able to enjoy! queso was involved during both games as well as lots of laughing. we had a great time during both of our visits and loved being able to hang out and see everyone. i have missed everyone so much!

preparing for the filming of greatest tailgater! i still think laura is the greatest!

and here is the dancing laura! i dont think handsome was aware of all the fun that was happening next to him. love it!

next up, ou/tx! super excited!

sticky fingers is more than just a feeling

i moved to little rock about three months ago and i have not had the time/money to try new foods like i had hoped, but i have made it out one weekend, and that weekend was the one when i moved. haha! handsome, my dad and i went to a place in the river market district after we unpacked the uhaul called sticky fingers. part of it is a restaurant and part of it is a concert venue. we actually had to show our id to go to the restaurant, strange i know, but unique! almost everything on their menu involves chicken fingers and they come in a very wide variety of flavors with a wide variety of sauces. you can get a basket of them and choose your sauces or choose something else like a quesadilla. that is what i did! handsome and my dad enjoyed their fingers, but i have to say that i think my quesadilla was the best of all! it was spicy, delicious and had a unique flavor that you do not always find in a quesadilla. a nice break after a long moving day!

pizza, mountains and outfit number three!

back in june (yes, i realize june was forever ago) handsome and i went to the mountains to look at different wedding locations. after enjoying the mountains for awhile, we became completely starving and headed over to grand lake for lunch. we settled on a pizza place and got a buffalo chicken pizza. it was the exact flavor i desired at that moment! delicious! we also got some ice cream for dessert. basically, it was a great day!

shirt: LOFT

skirt: thrifted

one thing i love about colorado is how amazing the sky looks on a beautiful day! it looks fake in photos as well as in real life. love it!

i failed to take photos

happy september! things have been super crazy this last month and will only be getting crazier, but here are a few updates about what i have been up to! (outside of work, of course.)

i went up to denver to visit handsome two weekends ago and we picked out our cake! every flavor we tried was super delicious. it was also a lot more overwhelming than i thought it would be, but i can confidently say that the flavors we decided on are wonderful! i cant wait to eat them! i am also super excited about how beautiful the cake will be. it is too hard to explain what it looks like, but it involves birds and twigs. super cute, cant wait!

we also designed my bouquet and the boutonnieres the guys will be wearing and they couldnt be more perfect! our florist immediately understood my vision and was able to create exactly what i was looking for. so far, i am very surprised at how easy all of this wedding stuff has been. except for the stamping of everyones address on the envelopes. i am currently rethinking that idea.....

tomorrow i will be heading to norman for football fun with handsome and lots of loves. i cant even explain how excited i am! i am so ready for a weekend away from work, and a weekend full of football, friends and love couldnt be more perfect. boomer sooner!

love.

oh wow, i realized i forgot to write about graduation! it felt kind of strange that school was finally over. it had seemed to take so long to end, but flew by at the same time.  we had lunch at big truck tacos after the ceremony and then had snacks and desserts later that afternoon. i loved being able to spend time with my family and friends and enjoy yummy food while celebrating. and the fun didnt stop until the early hours of the morning after tons of dancing and laughing! i cant wait until the wedding when we will have another great celebration!

love.

a very happy birthday

happy birthday to my handsome!!! i love you so much and wish more than anything that i was to celebrate this special day with you. i cant wait to have birthday celebrations together for the rest of our lives!

love.

theyre here!

i was super excited to get my photos back from my water camera to find out that i didnt rip the film! so now, as promised, some fun river photos from our memorial weekend trip!

i only posted this photo because of the flying bottle that just happens to be in the background. perfect image capturing our day! haha

we seriously had the best time ever! i hope there are a lot more trips like this in the future!


love.
