An amazing giveaway!!

Good Morning friends,

I was stumbling today while taking a break and came across one of my favorite blogs, MaryJanes and Galoshes. Taylor the writer of the blog is very cool, she always has great diy stuff and other fun things. 

She's posted a giveaway for a kelly moore camera bag.

Kelly Moore bags are amazing and I want the posey one in orange! Go visit her website and see her bags and watch the videos on them. The are so well designed and she has just thought of everything.

Anyways all I'm saying is that if I don't win the giveaway Kyle is going to have to get me an early birthday present!!

164 days to go...

So it has been a while since I've posted. School sucks up all my time, but I only have one more week of college ever!! yay!

Not too much has been happening since I last posted. We've been enjoying being engaged. We celebrated Kyle's mom and sister's birthdays and visited Huntsville for the ASID (American Society of Interior Designers) Alabama state conference, and celebrated our 3 year anniversary. We went to the melting pot...mmm delicious.

We have nailed down our guest list and the save the dates have been printed! I'm just trying to catch sometime to get address and mail them out! 

This weekend Kyle and I are going to go apartment hunting in Douglasville this weekend! I'm so excited I've been looking at places online all week long. Kyle was going to go by himself, but after the list of criteria I gave him (check the type of flooring, and ceiling heights and kitchen layout...etc) he got really nervous and kind of overwhelmed and told me I had to come. So friday we are going to look at a few apartment complexes and maybe  some houses! 

I'll post after this weekend!! 

180 days to go...

6 months to go! 
I can't believe that in 6 months I will be Mrs. Stokes. I really can't wait. seriously, this long distance thing is the pits.


In wedding planning news, not much has happened except oh wait... I got the flash drive that has our engagement pictures on it from miss chelsea patricia sides and well our save the dates are done! YIPEE!


All that is left to do is print and send them out to the lucky folks

this had to go on something since it isn't going on the save the date

Don't get me started on this picture 

I love it. It worked amazingly well on our save the date. But the front of our save the date has this picture on it

Because I hate how on postcard save the dates the side with the address gets neglected. So anyways I sent Kyle a proof and his inner groomzilla (the companion of bridezilla) came out. "I don't think we should have two goofy pictures." "We should have a serious one on the side that faces people when its on the fridge" My response was since when are we serious people. Whatever, and its actually my fault because in the sign picture I am the only one making a goofy face... yea like that's a normal smile Kyle

Long story short we aren't using the sign picture... I'm not bitter... well maybe just a little ( and since they haven't been printed yet maybe I will change them last minute without his approval, I'm devious like that)

Kyle and I spent much of last week getting our guest list together. It was not easy. We know waaaay too many people. But we got it down and now we are just waiting on the lists from our families.


So in my spare time (which if you know me is not very much!) I created a photo book on blurb of all our engagement pictures. I'm going to toot my own horn here for a second; IT LOOKS AMMMMAZZZING
haha but seriously I think it turned out pretty great and it was fun and easy.


I also ordered part of my bridesmaids gifts this week. Kyle responded to that with "we have to give them gifts." He's lucky he is so cute! When I said what do you think you will get your groomsmen? He responded with "I don't know I have six months to figure it out." Men


That's it for now... more to come
