Green Eye Candy.

Jadeite anything is always homey, classic, and always the perfect pop of color.  Love it.

I cannot wait to try this tutorial.
Jason's vinyl shelf has been a little sore on the eyes lately, so this should really spice it up!

Cat Paw-T.

 Did I ever mention that I threw myself a cat birthday party for my 25th birthday? 
Well, I did. 
And it was glorious.

Tunes for Tykes. September/2011

Why?  Because I like you.

Everyone has a similar story.

There is a certain comradery that I have noticed does not exist in the mid-west like people in the northeast have, and particularly in New York.  I don't really talk about being raised in Queens that often, because where I'm from, it's really no big deal.  Everyone has a similar story.
My family was lucky enough to not to loose anyone on September 11, 2001.  I don't know how we didn't, with everyone we loved in New York working in Manhattan.
There was always a silent understanding between everyone I knew on the east coast that you just don't bad mouth that day.  You just don't.  It's rude, uncalled for, and completely unnecessary.  I don't know if I just don't hang out with the right people or what, but the midwest lacks that, and it hurts my heart.

Honeyluna.

Jason and I had a beautiful, romantic, and inexpensive honeymoon.  We traveled to Yellowstone, the Bighorn Mts., and The Black Hills of South Dakota.  We decided to not keep a budget to keep track of, but rather make good decisions with what we spent on and where we spent our money.  (Ex:  Not buying anything in Yellowstone.)  We didn't hold back on splurging here and there, but we didn't go crazy either.  We didn't give ourselves any kind of schedule, so we had more of an adventure than a vacation. 
As a planner by nature, I had a difficult time letting go at first.  But after nine months of wedding planning, I was pleased to let go and travel with my phone off.  I would highly recommend this mode of traveling to anyone and everyone.

 

The knot is tied!

Well, here I am...

1. Resting from a whirlwind of excitement.
2. Back here blogging.
3. Back from our honeymoon.
4. And best of all, Jason and I are married!

It feels great to be back home and living normally again.  And don't worry, we'll have more soon!
