Learning New Things..

Well hello! I'm in the process of trying to teach myself photoshop/gimp. I want to make invitations, cute print outs for parties, things for my friends, etc. 

This is something I just made really quick. It's nothing special but it's taken me like 3 days to figure this stuff out!

I'm having so much fun (now that I finally understand) experimenting with fonts, brushes, etc. If anyone has any tips for me, let me know! Maybe one day I'll be making invitations/print outs for you :)

Wedding Chatter

I have to admit something... I have been in full wedding mode ever since we got engaged! We said we were going to take a week and not talk about plans... NOPE. Once we started talking about it, it's like we can't stop! One thing that I haven't even thought about is...

I know, I know... I feel like less of a woman for not immediately thinking of what I'd like to wear walking down the aisle but I have plenty of time. I thought I'd use my little blog to display what I'm attracted to... observe ;)

Warning: I've got a theme going on with this post... Lace. Lace. LACE!

I'm attracted to stuff that would never look good on me.. go figure.

I saw this picture almost a year ago and just found out that this bride was married very close to where we're thinking of getting married!

Ahh love me some lace :)

Beachy lace!

That's all I've found so far.. any favorites? Send me pictures/pins my way :)

Big News..

Most of my followers are my friends so most people know about the big news but here it is...

WE'RE ENGAGED!!!!

Here's a picture right before it happened... he was acting so weird! :)

Gregg packed Margarita's for Cinco De Mayo!

Meet Robert, our wonderful gondola tour guide! And an integral part of the proposal!

Here's a picture of right after it happened... I am still in shock!

This is underneath one of the bridges we passed on our gondola ride. The rest of the signatures have been there for a while.. some before Hurricane Katrina!

Here's a picture of that sparkly thing I can't stop staring at on my left hand!

There are many more pictures from that magical day. We have the pictures of the actual proposal and I can not wait to share them. Thanks for all the texts, calls, tweets, facebook posts, etc... we are thrilled! Next up... planning a wedding! Wish me luck!
