Grrrr!!

I always try to be really positive on this blog, but after the week i've had, i just need to vent. I hate how certain people can just put you In a rotten mood with their negativity. Especially when you've done nothing but try to be nice to them and help them out. My gripe is really with certain people who have done nothing but bitch about The wedding Gabe, me, and my mom and step-mom are working so hard to plan. I'm to the point where I just want to say if you don't like how we're doing things, then please don't come! We don't need your terrible attitudes bringing us down on our special day. Ugh! But in the end I know I could never say that because I'm a bigger person than that. Or at least I try to be... Weeks like this week make me so thankful for my wonderful, supportive family and my amazing fiancé. And I just have to pray for patience with these rude people who try to bring me down. So please say a little prayer for me if you think about it. I just need to remain strong and stay on the positive side. This day is for Gabe and me. We're happy and we want our friends and family to be just as happy as we are. Is that so much to ask?

Wedding Wednesday-The Location

As you know by now, we're having our wedding in Gulf Shores, AL. I have always dreamed of having a beach wedding and the Gulf coast has always held a special place in my heart. We decided to have the wedding at the Gulf Shores Beach Club.

The ceremony itself will be on the beach a little before sunset. Then we will walk up to the beach club and have our reception on the veranda overlooking the beach and gorgeous pool area. I have no doubt that it will be amazing. I absolutely cannot wait! Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday!

Pre-Vacation Shopping

Um long time no blog! I got a little distracted last week by all things wedding. Seriously I'm looking forward to the day when this wedding doesn't take up at least 90% of my thoughts. Don't get me wrong, I'm so excited for the wedding and I absolutely cannot wait to be married. I'm just over the whole planning thing. Let's just do this thing already! :)

Anyway, no worries because in 3 weeks we will be cruising in the Caribbean for our Spring Break! (can I still call it Spring Break since we've both graduated college??) I've been doing a little shopping lately preparing for this trip. Here's a few of my favs I've come across:

Tinley Road Ruffle Knit Maxi

Hudson Jeans Collin Skinny Jeans

My Weekend

I meant to post this yesterday, but I got distracted and forgot!
We had a great weekend and Valentines day. Friday night we went to dinner with some friends then called it an early night.
Saturday, we started the day with breakfast from Starbucks then did a little house hunting. That afternoon we headed to the movie theatre to watch:

Cute movie, not much substance, but still cute. Saturday night we stayed in and caught up on some of our tv shows.
Sunday the weather was absolutely gorgeous!

Yes, that says 70 degrees! And the warmer temps are sticking around for at least another week. We decided to take advantage of the warmer temps and sunshine and go for a hike. We went to a trail at Cadron Creek that we had never tried before. It was weird because there was still snow on the ground, yet it was so warm.

 

Monday, we both had to work of course, but I did get these beauties:

After work, we made our way to Little Rock to eat at SO. The food was amazing and Gabe and I had a wonderful time unwinding over a bottle of wine.
We have an appointment for massages after work today and I can't wait!

Hope you all had a good weekend and V-day!
