Last weekend while visiting with friends in Knoxville, a rather good acquaintance {that’s you Bielen!} reminded me that I hadn’t posted any house updates recently and she was wanting to see more progress on our little house. With that in mind, here is a little update on where we stand and what’s coming next: The […]

It’s here ladies–Fabulous Friday. Why is it that it seems that 4-day work weeks actually last longer than the normal ones?? Strange to me, but I swear I can’t be the only one who thinks this way. Here in Nashville, the temperature has dropped a few degrees–we’re actually in the mid 80’s–but it’s dreary outside […]

Food… the epitomy of my existence. I workout so that I can indulge in some yummyness every now and then, and I am hoping you do the same. With all sorts of incredible recipes out there, I am one who loves to sample the goods and savor some authentic southern cuisine–case in point: the best […]

Have you been anxiously awaiting this post as much as I have??? I wanted to relish each and every detail of our incredible engagement party from last weekend, so I apologize for taking so long to get this post on here. Well, first things first: the hostess gifts. I wanted to give each of my […]

Oh…this morning’s weather has me thinking FALL FALL FALL!! Perfect to coincide with Taylor’s weekly Top 2 Tuesday for this week… Top 2 favorite things about fall 1.

You heard it correctly people—it’s FINALLY fall! Summer used to be my favorite season, however, after the monstrous summer filled with nonstop heat and humidity, I have decided I am so appreciative of everything that fall has to offer… 1. Football—as if you didn’t know where my heart truly is… it belongs in Knoxville, TN […]

Finally, another “I-can-cross-another-big-item” of my checklist this week! I know, you were hoping I hadn’t gotten too sidetracked, right?? Well, just as I had mentioned in a previous post, my Mom and I had met with three fantastic florists here in Nashville and were presented with the difficult decision of having to choose just one. And […]

Yay! Taylor used one of my ideas for her infamous Top 2 Tuesday post today… Top 2 Favorite Cities 1. Now it’s no secret that I have a love affair with the end-all of everything metropolitan… AKA New York City/The Big Apple/The City That Never Sleeps! If Jeff was to come home one day and […]

Today’s mood: feeling genuinely happy and lucky and blessed… Is it Monday all over again?? Really, this weekend FLEW by, but this was the best weekend filled with tons of friends and family, and I am so grateful for a fun-filled engagement party thrown by four fabulous hostesses!! Friday night, a few of us started […]
