Insta-weekend

After discovering this past week, that Instagram is now available for androids, I may have gone a little crazy.  As I've admitted openly in past posts, although it generally speaks for itself- I did NOT get the photographing skills in my family.  Any program that makes my photography skills look less dismal, is OK in my book... plus its fun.  You should try it.  Everyone's doing it.  Be cool, like me. ..Yeah, so, ANYWAY.

Since I barely had a chance to sit still all weekend (not counting my accidental 2 hour nap Sunday), I though I'd share it with you via instagram photo montage.

Enjoy!

With no major events on the calendar for the next few weeks (phew, I survived all the bridal/baby showers & matron of honor duties of the past few months) I can now focus on finishing my nephews room!   The ideas are churning, I just need to get creating- stay tuned!!

B+M= no joke!

On April Fools day, Becky and Mike tied the knot!!! I don't think I ever explained to you my sheer excitement for this wedding... it is kind of my fault.  You see, the groom is one of Hubby's bffs (do guys have bff or just bros?) and I met Becky at my first job out of college.  Somewhere along the line, it hit me that they would go great together.  And they are great together :)

Their photographer has some AMAZING pictures posted on her website: staceyhedman.com

It's awesome to see 2 of your best friends make each other so happy!

Love ya B!!!

They kept their guest entertained with dancing, a game room, and a photobooth.  Personally, I think the photobooth was a smashing success.  Once I figure out how to take a decent picture of the photo strips (or locate the install CD for my ancient scanner) I'll share some of the amusements.

Bedroom Progress

Why do I second guess myself? Remember when I blogged about the bedroom mirror options?  I had bought the cheap one hoping it would be "good enough," but the expensive mirror called to me.  I should have gone with my gut, because it was totally right.

I love the proportions and the finishes.  Yes, it was $300 more than the cheap mirror, but you get what you pay for.

Do you like the new curtains?  I was expecting the background to be a bit more off-white than beige, but Hubby and I both like them.

I also had some help hemming the curtains.  Well, he was less of a help and more of a distraction, but quite adorable either way.  The weird bear just likes to lay on things.  Seriously, if you put something on the ground, it'll be his new favorite place to sit.

So yeah, the bedroom.  It still needs some SERIOUS styling, but I have some ideas.  Styling isn't my strength, so that'll take some work.  I need to practice and hone my styling skills.  If I can eventually be half as good at styling as Emily Henderson, I'll consider it a win. (Yup, totally have a girl crush on her.  We should be bffs.)
