I am loving maxi dresses/skirts lately. I only have two, and I barely ever wear them, but I am totally loving them on these girls!</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am co-hosting what I like to call a lingerie-shower-bachelorette-party-extravaganza for one of my best friends this weekend! I am so excited for several reasons.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1)</b> because I love her to pieces and am so thrilled to be apart of her upcoming wedding.<br />
<b>2)</b> because its going to be a very <i>very</i> nice break from all my school.<br />
...and maybe most importantly...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>3)</b> because I thought volunteering to host a party at my place, would help<br />
motivate me to finish some projects around the house!<br />
Win-win, right??<br />
<br />
(You can look forward to some Bachelorette posts after this weekend!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">House project #1: Front Door</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found this inspiration from Pinterest (while scrolling through my app during Finance class, oops) and decided that first and foremost I would tackle our door.<br />
<u>Every</u> house needs a cute front door, and we certainly did not have one.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>How freaking adorable, right???</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

I totally adore the mint but it doesn't really match my exterior paint and/or interior decor. So I decided for my "Front Door Makeover" I would go dark blue. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used a Home Depot coupon and snagged a high gloss quart of this Olympic paint color called "Spangled Banner" for $7.99</div>

I forgot to snap a picture before I started painting away, but I figured you could use your imagination...It was just a old, dirty, white door. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

After two coats of paint, a little dry time, and a cutesy DIY wreath, this is our final product. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(Wish I had some pictures of it closed, from the outside of the house, but the sun was too bright to get a decent view of it today.)</div>

It looks nothing like my Pinterest inspiration. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I like to think it looks more "me", which I love. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I considered adding the little numbers like in the Pinterest picture, but after hanging the wreath I felt like it might be too much. So for now, it is finished!</div>

Dear blog friends, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is nothing sweet about this post, no pictures, and no cute quotes. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I am so overwhelmed. Can I please just whine for a second?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I study all day everyday. I barely have time to shower or eat and I've gotten like 10 hours of sleep in the last 3 days. Not only do I never have time to blog, goodness knows, I have nothing to blog about. Over the last 3 weeks, Ive cooked nothing, put on nothing cute to where, and have not even thought about cleaning the house. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Feeling overwhelmed and underachieved. Don't know if Im going to pass these classes, don't know when I will graduate. Wishing I could do more for my hubs, and dying to get some rest. Summer school please end. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Now. </span></div>Morgan Sandershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07668860341240353893noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7074775046520612977.post-74725561739997821212012-06-05T16:04:00.002-07:002012-06-05T16:06:20.052-07:00Birthday funWe celebrated my husbands birthday yesterday, and we had so much fun!<br />

Mark, I am so thankful that in the lovely month of June, 3 years ago, I found you. My life has never been the same since. Happy birthday, love. I am looking forward to many more birthdays shared with you.<br />

Read an article that I found on a link from Pinterest today, and felt I had to share!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I take no credit for creating this list, but man, it is awesome!!! With many of my blogger friends being newlyweds I hoped it would encourage you, as you walk with your husband, in the way it has already encouraged me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am committing to pursue each of these activities to daily inspire my husband. Since I am pretty certain he rarely reads my blog, he will definitely be caught by surprise!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">

<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">
There’s an old joke about one of our presidents walking with his wife, who sees one of her old boyfriends in a less-than-glorious occupation. The president looks at the old boyfriend and remarks, “If you hadn’t married me, you might be married to that guy.”</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">
The first lady answers calmly, “If I had married him, he’d be president.”</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">
Now, occupation is not the measure of a man. But as a wife, you do possess a unique power to inspire your husband. Your loving vision of the man he’s becoming propels him toward greatness—not necessarily by the world’s yardstick of success, or even your own, but of God’s.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">
When you believe in him, he is secure. He can take the leaps of faith required to surmount fear. He can bear up under pressure, pioneer new territory.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">
An inspired husband feels the freedom to reach the fullest potential of the man God has created him to be. He’s not merely encouraged. He’s a man who’s empowered; a conqueror. If you want to give your man some “wind beneath his wings”… start here.</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">

<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">

10. Leave sticky notes in his lunch, on his steering wheel, in his briefcase, etc. “So proud of all you’ve been doing with ___.” “You are so great with our kids.” “You are my dream come true.” “You are an incredible lover.”</div>

27. Ask, “If I could do one thing I’m not already doing that would really empower you and inspire you, what would it be?” Listen — resist being defensive (the hard part) — and follow through.</div>

28. As you think of them, remind him of specific times and areas he has impacted people’s lives: “Hey, I was thinking the other day about all the time you invested in that Cub Scout troop. Wonder what those boys are doing now. It was so cool to watch them grow with you as their leader.” “Our son has grown so much in encouraging people lately. He gets that from you; you are such a good example for him in that.”</div>

30. Do something <em>fun </em>and unexpected together: paintball; laser tag; on a spring day, have a picnic, blow bubbles, and bring the books you’re reading; swing; go to a drive-in movie, bring popcorn, and instigate a make-out session.</div>

33. Go to a home improvement store to plan a small, doable project that energizes both of you, even if it’s just painting a room or fixing up some landscaping. (Hint: Make sure it’s something by which he won’t feel burdened.)</div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Dilemma 1: </span>Our washer broke.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We use to have a stackable washer/dryer in our tiny little kitchen. After being quoted for a repair with a huge price tag, we decided to just buy a new unit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We chose this.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
LG washer/dryer combo.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you could fall in love with a washer/dryer, this would be it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Dilemma 2:</span> After replacing the stackable unit with this MUCH smaller unit, we were left with a big empty wall and this ugly plumbing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, we needed a quick (temporary) fix! I used this little window, that I had previously painted with chalkboard paint as a cover up. I could not hang it flush against the wall because of the perturbing pipes. SO, I hung it like this! </div>

Of course the whole corner needs a little cleaning, and it doesn't fully solve (or hide) the problem, but it helps out for now!</div>

Don't judge my microsoft paint skills, but we are planning on creating a more permanent fix for the washer by building a little home for it, something similar to this!</div>

I certainly cannot promise to do one every week so I refuse to call it "What I love Wednesdays" so for not I will call it "What I love Whenever!"<br />
<br />
Here goes.<br />
<br />
First of all, I LOVE my job! I spent the day shopping for all kinds of pretty things. I love being a part of helping others plan important days in their lives. I am truly blessed to work with some incredibly talented people, and to truly love what I do.<br />

I am finally thrilled to say I am fully registered for all my college classes and will be graduating this December!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">HORRAY!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So anyway, we just got back from vacation, which is part of the reason school is stressing me out now. Writing papers and giving presentations just does not compare to lying on the beach and sipping fruity drinks. Now its back to the real world. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I will have to blog about our incredible trip in segments because...</div><div style="text-align: center;">1. I should be doing homework and can't waste too much time on here. </div><div style="text-align: center;">2. There is a million bajillion pictures that would overload your computer. </div><div style="text-align: center;">3. There was so much wonderful fun I could not possible pack it in one post. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So here is a quick summary of<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">DAY 1</span></div><div style="text-align: center;">I made this fun "Bride" sweatshirt to wear on the plane, since technically we considered this our "honeymoon trip". I was kind of hoping to get a free flight upgrade or something!<br />
We did end up flying first class, but we paid for it....boo</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXJUHQUJxhAGuzcsP_qa26ppdDu2zgscvlK_E9p7-frTRPvmUbSCxH4YR8bAeY1eYJ3rJFlE0PD0lKrO_qBpYhWN-D_PkxEGZ6D7LZ79Be9cZ2OwLzYnIN7GqT7hhlypP1Bzgsv9puP1G8/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-04-08+at+10.32.35+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXJUHQUJxhAGuzcsP_qa26ppdDu2zgscvlK_E9p7-frTRPvmUbSCxH4YR8bAeY1eYJ3rJFlE0PD0lKrO_qBpYhWN-D_PkxEGZ6D7LZ79Be9cZ2OwLzYnIN7GqT7hhlypP1Bzgsv9puP1G8/s320/Screen+Shot+2012-04-08+at+10.32.35+PM.png" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I thought my jacket turned out cute, although I will change the font if I make another one. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I bought the hoodie during the summer on clearance for $2.99 at Rue 21, and used hot glue to bedazzle it with multi-colored rhinestones which I bought from Hobby Lobby. I am considering selling them on Etsy at some point in the future. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
So after a short layover in Atlanta,<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">WE FINALLY ARRIVE IN MIAMI!</span><br />
<br />
where we were met by the two most wonderful people in the world, sweet Kyle and Nicholl Vincent, our best friends. (You can view <a href="http://morganflynt.blogspot.com/2012/02/memphis-to-miami.html">this post</a> to read all about them.)<br />
<br />
This is not exactly what they looked like when they greeted us at the airport,<br />
its just an Easter picture, but I just had to share.<br />
Aren't they cute??? <br />

We love them, and Mark is not a very adventurous eater, so that is saying a lot!!! There is nothing in Memphis that compares. Nicholl is sending me arepa mix from Columbia (don't forget Nicholl)!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">After dinner and puppy play time we rested a bit and then hit South Beach! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Nicholl and I love to get dressed up and were so excited to finally be reunited with one another we could barely stand it! So we primped in normal fashion and were then ready to hit the town! After finding an awesome parking spot right next to the restaurant we went to meet up with the lovely Ashley Durham and her sweet roommate Maria.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">(Quick back story; Ashley is the sweetest girl you will ever meet, we go way back to high school double dates, boat rides, and watching Lord of the Rings! She was also a sorority sister and close friend in college and I love her to death. In 2011 she took some time away from the school to compete in Miss USA, which she was 1st runner-up in. Shortly after the pageant she signed a contract with FORD model mgmt and was temporarily moved to Miami. It was a blessing to get to see her during our vacation. Mark and I have missed her so much!)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi14R2_Jdtog60FPjyB94l0s9y71N9fvqcK9wl7X9ZW55c4rFxmYavJdHBR2sZalMppa-DnnqI-N7Z3WisoW85T5mNNZnLzR9KPCveNJ37PANvlDp6L3smNTrHbNEn6-Oe0RfMkUMMwwI8d/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-04-08+at+10.32.01+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="293" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi14R2_Jdtog60FPjyB94l0s9y71N9fvqcK9wl7X9ZW55c4rFxmYavJdHBR2sZalMppa-DnnqI-N7Z3WisoW85T5mNNZnLzR9KPCveNJ37PANvlDp6L3smNTrHbNEn6-Oe0RfMkUMMwwI8d/s400/Screen+Shot+2012-04-08+at+10.32.01+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We think she is totally a superstar and are so blessed to know such an incredible woman!

Maria also competed with Ashley in Miss USA 2011 where she finished top 5, and now also models for FORD. Both Ashley and Maria are definitely the exception to the typical beauty queen stereotype. They are the most genuine girls you could ever know. It was such a pleasure to meet Maria.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEist7s2aZYPLncHORQZcaqlzq377DwXcc7Z4WbkGcYSMz6E88piznA41kCLj_JhHZJhZeByRWrvSlB4gkMMsCy6GGBLNA9XrKPiqL5QlC7zEO9jo55AUoWUFp3lIgFPiz4QZPmVeKftesXK/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-04-08+at+10.58.19+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEist7s2aZYPLncHORQZcaqlzq377DwXcc7Z4WbkGcYSMz6E88piznA41kCLj_JhHZJhZeByRWrvSlB4gkMMsCy6GGBLNA9XrKPiqL5QlC7zEO9jo55AUoWUFp3lIgFPiz4QZPmVeKftesXK/s320/Screen+Shot+2012-04-08+at+10.58.19+PM.png" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">she is pretty incredible too, right??</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We had a wonderful dinner on the porch at "Pizza Rustic" where Nicholl and I shared a huge piece of Pizza (and considered ordering another, but decided not to) and then hit up a yummy yogurt bar for dessert. It was a great night, and a wonderful idea to end it with a sweet treat (thanks Ashley)!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Mark and I were so sad to say our goodbyes to sweet Ashley. But we will see her soon! We are so excited to see her graduate this May. (She is still graduating college in a total of 4 years after taking time off for the pageant, and taking online classes while in Miami. Not to mention she is graduating with honors. I told you, she is an incredible lady.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I just wanted to take a minute to share a bit about Mr. Sanders.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yesterday was our 6 month anniversary, Mark says we don't have to celebrate every month now that we are married but I think 6 is worth recognizing. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I know many of you can relate when I say we love newlywed life. I hope you can also relate when I say I know I picked the right guy (and Im happy he picked me). What a joy it has been to get to know him more than ever over the last 180 some odd days. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I hope he reads this, because I do not tell him enough how wonderful I think he is. It is so incredible to see the way God has prepared him for marriage. God knew exactly what I needed. Mark is all that I am not, and his strengths beautifully compliment my weaknesses.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I am so thankful to share life with such a Godly, thoughtful, forgiving man.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I can't resist the charm of old things. Time adds character to everything; In furniture and in life (thats why I married an older man) :-) Speaking of him, the hubs and I ran across this jewel of old treasures while we were in Somerville today. So we had to make a pitstop! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpLCYvn8nIU6dfvBBPpzESPEewznSmB62TEosxlorn5aPNugQAHZETa9I7pfGNyG13HAbSG6WjzD182cOMhKNK2dynyB-tAV2JlrN5bFsrcgmWUmr4b7i_bCTyQrltRRpLuU4fhGowEurr/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-03-07+at+8.56.15+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="161" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpLCYvn8nIU6dfvBBPpzESPEewznSmB62TEosxlorn5aPNugQAHZETa9I7pfGNyG13HAbSG6WjzD182cOMhKNK2dynyB-tAV2JlrN5bFsrcgmWUmr4b7i_bCTyQrltRRpLuU4fhGowEurr/s320/Screen+Shot+2012-03-07+at+8.56.15+PM.png" width="320" /></a></div><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">After browsing, digging, and exchanging stories with a sweet old man we unfortunately left empty handed. I am so thankful to be paired with someone in life who can see the beauty in unexpected things. My sweet husband not only humors me by tagging along to antique stores, but actually enjoys rummaging though the trash to help me find the treasures, and he has a great eye for it too!<br />
<br />
We did find this cute guy, but we didn't want to take him from his other little antique friends, so we left him there. (If you don't know how much I LOVE squirrels, check out our wedding website <a href="http://FlyntAndSanders.ourwedding.com/">here</a> and read our proposal story.)<br />

Long story short, I bought a new chest. M calls it a treasure chest. He's silly. I love him.<br />
Happy antique-ing <br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">For those of you who don't know, I am training for a half marathon (<a href="http://morganflynt.blogspot.com/2011/11/faster-you-run-faster-your-done.html">see previous post here</a>) with my best friend Kelly (<a href="http://aginnandaginn.blogspot.com/2012/02/why-131.html">check out her blog here</a>)! The race is about 8 weeks away, and I am right (about) on track with my first 5 mile run yesterday! I am going to brag just a <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: xx-small;">little</span> bit and tell you I ran it in 53.5 minutes! So needless to say, I am very excited about that! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Now I even have calluses on my feet (EWW, why am I telling you that???) but I'm okay with that, because it makes me feel like a serious runner! Ive run almost exactly 20 total miles this week! I have about perfected my run routine. I have a small pre-run snack like grilled chicken or turkey and crackers. I also have an awesome playlist that helps me keep a decent pace. And my all time favorite running attire is a pair of puma shorts, a nike sports bra and a baggy tank top from Old Navy (which Mark bought me in 6 different colors). </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I asked M if he would stand at the end of the race with one of these for me. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMUU3ciVNAMKcBRY1GvlcGytNRb_Loup8KrZM0fvdVGNSm-5ZgxbL-QLFNqhJJHvPNHrhXA769XChy0QTE20hMeTGtE65RfgGYhVUyo5E4gJn0XPbu06P7i2WyXsqyfO61xzSUujb3HH4J/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-02-29+at+3.19.48+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMUU3ciVNAMKcBRY1GvlcGytNRb_Loup8KrZM0fvdVGNSm-5ZgxbL-QLFNqhJJHvPNHrhXA769XChy0QTE20hMeTGtE65RfgGYhVUyo5E4gJn0XPbu06P7i2WyXsqyfO61xzSUujb3HH4J/s320/Screen+Shot+2012-02-29+at+3.19.48+PM.png" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicBddXPpZPRrujp22uRUgkG9f9rVFqbWBUXTiK1TBsyfF4b1wFwOfcqcsadYRkJ7luZMgMDO2f19ASry4aFBwOEjnFb_eBMrcSVZjIyBEGkBkc1SfQJMEUpKreJt6R_6UJIkWeLz49q3ie/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-02-29+at+3.25.12+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicBddXPpZPRrujp22uRUgkG9f9rVFqbWBUXTiK1TBsyfF4b1wFwOfcqcsadYRkJ7luZMgMDO2f19ASry4aFBwOEjnFb_eBMrcSVZjIyBEGkBkc1SfQJMEUpKreJt6R_6UJIkWeLz49q3ie/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-02-29+at+3.25.12+PM.png" /></a></div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">so the problem is... we are BEST FRIENDS!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">One fateful day last December our sweet friends Kyle and Nicholl moved to the sunny beaches of Miami, Florida. Since then has been many Skype dates, long phone calls, solo golf trips, and lonely bargain hunting. Never could we have imagined the sadness we would face in life, without them by our side.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So really this is just a pity post for me, because life is hard without a spunky little Columbian best friend by my side. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So let me break this down. I met Nicholl in June of 2011 and the spark in her heart captured me immediately. She quickly became my other half and partner in crime. How grateful I am that our paths crossed even for a short amount of time. You can visit her blog <a href="http://nichollvincent.blogspot.com/">here</a> and see all about her and Kyle's celebrity Miami life! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So heres to Nicholl and Kyle! We love you, we can't wait to see you, we miss you more than life. Your friendships have impacted our lives more than you know. You are greatly missed. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

But, it was her great idea, so check her out if you can. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">Taking a second to love on my sweet wedding cake!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;">(p.s. i have recently been blogging like every single day, I am addicted!)</div><br />

Boring?? Yes....but I am okay with that. I have always loved that simple "wedding cake flavor" and knew that is what I wanted. Our bakery did a fantastic job from a quick sketch I made. The sweet little ruffles and pink flower matched our decor perfectly!</div><br />

Mark and I are usually fairly healthy. We try to grill whatever we can and eat lots of fruits and veggies. This was an exception. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I made these little guilty pleasures for breakfast this morning. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnVnqJrt15tzbmtchTdzMCCWTXWQLw7y-fFj6AtMivIC8Sc3m1ZEu45uTq2XLuww3RqyMeQEh8YCak9XerlV2C6qBNxdlVSQK1cZTiskliF7DU3wJm8beelJHlUsJfXcLMXOt4GvcXHg_Q/s1600/Screen+Shot+2012-02-21+at+11.37.21+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnVnqJrt15tzbmtchTdzMCCWTXWQLw7y-fFj6AtMivIC8Sc3m1ZEu45uTq2XLuww3RqyMeQEh8YCak9XerlV2C6qBNxdlVSQK1cZTiskliF7DU3wJm8beelJHlUsJfXcLMXOt4GvcXHg_Q/s640/Screen+Shot+2012-02-21+at+11.37.21+AM.png" width="578" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Notice I added some strawberries to balance it out. I am perfectly aware I will have to run a little further at the gym tonight, and I am totally okay with that. These were well worth it! The problem is they are so so simple that I may be tempted to make them again in the future! AHH!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I bought a can of "Grands" Pillsbury biscuits, heated some cooking oil on the stove, used the dough to form these donut circles by hand and dropped them in the oil. The first one burnt, of course. It literally took like 2 seconds per side. So once they were cooked on both sides and evenly golden, I set them to dry on a paper towel. Meanwhile I melted a few tablespoons of butter in a dish and mixed some sugar and cinnamon together in a separate dish. Once my donuts had cooled a bit I dipped them in the melted butter and then into the sugar mixture. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The recipe I followed recommended flipping the donut and repeating the sugaring steps for both sides. Obviously already concerned about the nutritional benefits of this dish, I skipped that step. However, I am fairly certain that made no difference whatsoever!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">After a momentary scare where we found they were not fully cooked through, I threw them in the oven for a few minutes...and then...<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">they were PERFECT! </span><br />
It was a nice treat to have instead of Lucky Charms. It made 8 delicious donuts. One of which I burnt to crisp, and one of which the dog ate, typical!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's been a great morning, and it is completely beautiful outside! </div><div style="text-align: center;">PS. I am so excited for our "Taco shop Tuesday" with my hottie of a husband tonight! Ill keep you updated on that! Get outside and do something fun today!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

We played things simple this year and just did a late dinner. But I tried to be festive around the house best I could!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I decorated our little DIY chalkboard with Valentine's love and hung the homemade heart garland ALL over the house!

<div style="text-align: center;">And last to end off our Valentine's week my sweet friend, little sorority sis, and fellow newlywed dropped this off on our doorstep.

</span></div><div style="text-align: left;">Since "half-marathon" has the word "marathon" in it, I like to just call it marathon for short, but I see how that could confuse some people, ha. In all reality, I am not sure that I ever aspire to run a full marathon. The thought of a mere 13.1 miles makes me a bit nervous, the entire trek of 26.2 miles is simply unbearable to comprehend for me. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Those who know me may remember I had high hopes of running a half marathon about this time last year. I got hyped up and joined a gym and even began a training program, but after a few short weeks I lost interest and regrettably gave up. But, I am thankful to say that this time I am running with my sweet friend who is one of the greatest encouragers I know! With her motivation, my competitive spirit, and some money already invested in this endeavor it would be hard to turn back now. Not to mention, I am not announcing it to the world (i.e. the 2 people that follow me), via the internet. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">So heres to the many hours or practice, endless amounts of sweat, and miles of distance to a goal worth completing. Wish me luck and perseverance, I am super excited. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

Its scary how much wood there is...like from a horror movie kind of scary. But do not worry, I've been reading some great tutorials on painting wood paneling. So, that is coming soon! I am leaning towards a creamy neutral color for the walls with accents of navy blues, reds, and maybe a bit of yellow.

<div style="text-align: center;">She is a fully bred Siberian Husky from Savannah Tennessee. She is 10 weeks old and has the bluest eyes you've ever seen with a cute little tail that curls up! She is a crazy hyper little thing but we are so glad to welcome her to our (crazy hyper) new little family.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Mark and I are both big fans of sock monkeys, and Mia appreciates that love as well. She was welcomed home with her first sock monkey toy from her auntie Han (my best friend). You would never believe me if I told you what we found next, heres picture proof...</div><br />

</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div style="text-align: center;">We love it! And Mia loves it! She probably wont fit into it much longer, but right now she snuggles up in it every night. She's a good little pup! We (as in Mark) just taught her to sit on command, and sometimes she will even high 5! If anyone has any dog training tips let us know. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
