PUMPKINS!!

Brian and I went to the pumpkin patch about 2 weeks ago.  Last Sunday we enjoyed a lovely day at home and carved our pumpkins!!

I know you are all probably shocked - we had a KU and  K-State Pumpkin.  You decide which is better?!?!?!?!

Last Wedding of the Season!

My dear friend Sarah, who used to work at Payless, got married!  It was so much fun.

There were also some girls that flew into town who also used to work at Payless.

Jessi and I were partners as analysts before she moved back to Texas!  It makes me sad she doesn't work here anymore, but it was SOOO GOOD to see her this past weekend!

Here are a few more pictures from the weekend!

I'm not gonna lie, even though the wedding was a blast, I am ready for wedding season to come to an end.  

20 weddings or so in the past 2 years has been a little too much to handle, and needless to say my bank account isn't happy about it either!  

My wedding will be next year though!! I can't wait!!!

More Wedding Planning!

Planning is going so well, I can't even believe it!  Pinterest is AMAZING for ideas!  I am gathering soo many!

All vendors are booked, deposits down...except for the florist.  But we have 9 more months, so I have plenty of time to figure that out.

Here are some pictures of centerpieces that I've been looking at: {sorry for some blurry-ness}

Centerpiece in the top right corner is one of my favs!!

Wedding Dress...CHECK!

I ORDERED BY WEDDING GOWN!!!!!!!!!

Lauren (my sister) was in town this past weekend and I tried on my top 2 choices in wedding gowns.  I wanted her to be a part of the big decision!  She had not seen one of the dresses...and it's a good thing I waited, because I picked the one she had not seen!

I can't post a picture of the dress because every once in a while Brian checks out the blog!  But I'm soo soo excited!  It makes the whole wedding that more real!  

And I can't wait for July 14th to get here, 9 months can't pass soon enough!

YES! Successful!!!

Brian woke up this morning and suggested we go to the dog park...

I was nervous...Ellie isn't exactly stellar when we run into another dog on a walk.

So we ventured out...AND YES!!!  The dog park was SUCCESSFUL!!!!  

She had sooo much fun running through the trails, playing with other dogs.  It was soo much fun to watch her!  We will definitely make this a weekly event for her.  I'm soo happy she did so well today!
