Thank goodness this week is over! Seriously I am amazed that someone or many someones are still alive. This week seemed to go on forever! Or maybe that is because last week ran into this week since I worked last weekend. Ah crap and literally just got the phone call M's G-ma passed today. I know things could be worse it just seems that everything piles on top of one another at the same time.

So in order to pick up my spirits I am going to rehash my wonderful photographer Candice at Serendipity Studios. Oh so many pretty's.

Remember wayyyyy back when I gave you a tiny tiny peak of the shoes, and then I shared some pictures here and here. But here they are in their full glory. I love you Louboutin.
All the details from the day, seriously some of the most rocking pictures are those that remind me of all the little stuff.

Me and the sisters.
Love both of these
Pretty sure we should be in a magazine.
All photos above from Serendipity Studios and my lady Candice.

Here are a few more from my sister during the wedding. This one pretty much resembles my life, purple teeth :)
Oh the car. What they didn't know was it was going to pour rain the next day and wash it all away.

Hope everyeones weekend are going well. Here is to hopefully having a little slower week.

Our Wedding

M and I decided we were going to do a first look which I am so happy we did! Doing the first look allowed for so many great shots of the two of us.  So while we were out doing our pictures our wedding party was doing things like this:
Sister so diligently finishing her speech, annndd
of course the boys were busy drinking not only beers but tequila as well. Which led to M giving a LOT of expressions like the one below trying to get the boys on board for pictures.
But all is well because when it came down to it the guys straightened up and got it all done and we have some pretty awesome pictures.

Here are all the "sisters" my two sisters and my sister-in-law who is due in November! Yep going to be an Auntie right here.
Big Bro and sister-in-law, love how my brother even wore a purple shirt since he was doing the reading.

My sister and brother-in-law, yes he is in sneakers, but hey at least he has the purple tie.

I actually really like this picture although I am pretty sure M is telling me how annoying the boys are since they drank the entire bottle.

Once pictures were done it was time to relax and wait because up next was the ceremony.

And so it begins

So here we are the end of June and seems like we are going to end the month the same way we started it, with rain. Record breaking amounts of rain for June, this is seriously making M not a happy camper.

In other news my sister finally got some of our wedding pictures up online for all to see and of course I am going to show some of them off because well this is my blog and I say so.

The week started out on Wednesday with our church ceremony. Since we wanted our marriage to be recognized by the Catholic Church we worked with our priest and had a ceremony in the church previous to our ceremony on Friday.
Us with all of the "Fathers".

Thursday morning my sister and I woke up bright and early and headed to the SF flower mart to pick out all the flowers for the wedding. Seriously I was up at 6 a.m. on a day off, unheard of. M took off to take our cinematographer skydiving, seriously he was the one who wanted flowers why was I the one up early to go get them while he got to go skydiving!?!?! So next up the rehearsal.

This one I would call, scolding M for being 20 minutes late to his own rehearsal. Why? Because he thought it was important to get a beer at the hotel and meet the hotel bar tender. MEN!@#

So while we were waiting for the groom to arrive we decided to take a family photo. After we finally wrapped up we headed over to Casa Orozco for dinner. Pretty good food but it had an awesome outdoor space. With the group we had in tow we spent more on drinks then we did on food!


Oh yes that is me and tequila, tequila es no bueno.

From the tequila I headed back to the hotel, not to get my beauty sleep but to finish the flowers up.
So the night before was a bit busy but would not have changed doing the flowers myself for anything. They turned out exactly how I had envisioned and wanted, nothing to done up, much more organic wildflower feel. Then off to bed since the next day was the big day.

Bridal Shower

So my sister's planned an amazing bridal shower for me. Theme: Baseball, Yankee Baseball! Warning heavy picture post.

I wish I had more pictures of the decorations and stuff my sisters did a lovely job. Here is one though. The table was covered with bags of peanuts and the favors? Popcorn balls, such one of my favorites!
Yep here is me taking my jello shots. Blue Rasberry and vodka, not good at all. Actually quite terrible.
Serioulsy large bottle of bubbles and a glass that could probably hold it entire bottle (with my lovely bubble loving Aunt).

Ice Cream cake yeah!
 

 And one last little picture. My aunts and cousins hung out for awhile after and we started up the fire pit.  

Awesome day all around. Please sir may I have another. Thanks to my lovely sisters!

Crikey

Seriously we are under a month now until we get married. Work has finally slowed down but the wedding stuff has picked up. Monday night M and I bottled 100 bottles of beer (on the wall). I finally have the programs ready to print and  an assembled. Bridal shower down next weekend Vegas! Seriously it is all approaching so quickly, then it is off to Dominican Republic. CAN NOT wait.

Me and my sisters at the bridal shower, yes my face is red, I blame them I had to take jello shots. I mean seriously how was I supposed to remember Malone was the first place he made his first skydive. I mean really!?!? It was perfect, they baseball themed it and we ate sliders and garlic fries, beer, champagne, seriously a ton of my favorites, oh and ice cream cake! By the way I wish I were taller! They were in flats and I was in my typical 3". Here is to the next 30 days moving by and being on our honeymoon!

Moving on...

Its over?@!#??? The thing about Christmas is that the holiday season is near the end and it makes me a little sad. The holiday season to me is a time to hang out with my family. This year also marks the last of the holidays with just my family. I love M and I am also a little selfish and it is going to be really hard to give up "my" traditions of being with my family during the holidays. Once we get married I have to give up "my" traditions and start ours, and this year was the start of it. Long story short, we started acclimating Christmas into our house and less into my parents. Moving on...

So while I was "gone" one of the things we did was go camping. I know how do you take Louboutins camping????? Well I left them at home and actually took my Keens, wait what? Who ever thought.  So for camping we headed up to the coast and got the best weather for the weekend. Bodega Bay yeah typically foggy, we actually got sun! My favorite part of the weekend? Watching these two run around like crazy dogs.
The entire weekend was a blast, it included a lot of beer, beermosas, food, cows, and cuddling with Chloe. And really just because I can:
And one that is not dog related.
Oh wait there are dogs, but also my sisters and "brothers" i.e. brothers-in-law and M.

Ppphhhheeewwww, whirlwind weekend.

What a weekend!!! Taking off early Friday was awesome! I got home, relaxed, cuddled with the pup and started the crock pot with some delish chicken for dinner.  When M got home we took off for the open space for some QT with Chloe.

We have such great open space around us and Chloe is able to run around like a crazy girl off-leash. Which is a good thing, especially since what happened at our local dog park last week. Craziness I tell you!
On Saturday we had a quiet morning and then I took Chloe to her dog class in the afternoon. After class we went and picked up a life vest for her (for our canoeing and camping trip).  After that I made a few errands and found this beauty at Big Lots.

Seriously found this for $14.00, the color works great for the guest room right now since it is teal, but because it will  belong outside I plan to paint it green to go with some of our outdoor stuff. I also started another project for the backyard so more to come later on that.

Sunday was a "day of rest" well not really, we headed to church Sunday morning and I think we actually found one to register at so now its just moving forward with it. I also went to do a little dress shopping with the Mamasita and sisters and then came home and drank some margaritas. Seriously if you want to go the easy route but deliciousness of fresh home made margaritas try Tommy's.

And while drinking some deliciousness the little sister helped me figure out the next center piece proposal to throw M's way. Hope everyone's weekend went well and here's to a hopefully good week!
