Insta-update

Just a little peek into my life as of late...via Instagram.

It's seriously the best thing that's happened to me since I got my iPhone for Christmas!

I'm thankful for sarcastic friends. They keep life from being too boring.

I'm thankful for gel manicures. Oh my goodness. This was my first one and it's the bomb.com.

I am thankful for the $5 car wash. Because my car was NASTY. I did in fact spend, $12 on the super sparkle wash.

I am thankful for an awesome boss! This was my gift for Administrative Assitant Day. Check out those new initials :)

I'm thankful for sushi. And a hubby-to-be and friends who love it just as much. I may or may not have had it TWICE last week!

Lastly, I'm thankful for baby bumps. Especially the one that in particular belongs to my friend Cassie. That's little Sawyer Brooke Burgess there. Can't wait until October 12th when she makes her arrival!

Wedding Wednesday

That's where Jacob and I are tying the knot!!

Isn't it gorgeous?

The guests will walk down a cobblestone path which runs beside a small creek.

They'll get to two big trees, surrounded by hundreds of hydrangeas, and walk out into this beautiful clearing.

There's nothing but grass and water.

I'm so excited!

Tuning in On Tuesday

If you ask me who my all time favorite artist is, I'm gonna immediately tell you Elton John. Mat Kearney sure comes in at a close second though. His music moves me.

Enjoy!

Sweet Neice

My weekend was kicked off by hanging out with mine and Jacob's sweet neice, Corbyn Jayne.

She's beautiful, precious, hilarious, and always making me smile or laugh.

That's her 'Woody' face :)

My two favorite people in this whole wide world :)

Wedding Wednesday

So, next Friday, I'm going to try on wedding dresses again!!

I'm so stinking excited! The first experience was a bit overwhelming. Wanna know what my problem is? I like absolutely everything. No joke! The only thing about a wedding dress that I know I just do not like is a corset back. Those things are just a waste of time to me. haha

Here are a few dresses that I absolutely love...(you can tell how my taste varies):

This last one is my absolute favorite.

This song makes me oh so happy!

Easter Weekend

Easter Weekend was absolutely wonderful!

Easter is one of my favorite times of year. How blessed I am to serve a risen Savior!!

Good Friday was spent with GREAT friends. We went to Amy & David's to grill out (which turned into us making homemade pizza! haha). Jeselyn, Erica, Dee, Jon, Josh, and Eric also came to hang. It was an awesomely long evening...ending at 4 o'clock in the AM.

Saturday was spent lazing around with my love. That evening, we met up with our friends, Ben and Hannah, to attend two wedding showers. It's always nice seeing old friends and getting to catch up. At one of the showers I got to see lot of my very best friends from high school. That was quite the treat! I wish we could have spent more time with everyone.

Sunday, Jacob and I donned our Easter duds and attended the first ever service at the Willowbrook Hampton Cove campus. There were over 900 people at that location and service alone!! God does work! :)

Jacob and I can't wait to get involved and watch this campus flourish.

The rest of Easter Sunday was spent eating good food and watching Corbyn Jayne hunt Easter eggs for the first time. She's just the most PRECIOUS thing. I'm gonna spoil her to pieces. Promise!

Wedding Wednesday

Only 374 days to go until I become Mrs. Jacob Russell!!

I seriously wish it was this weekend.

I'm glad I've got a year to plan my dream wedding, but I'm so excited about starting our life together.

I haven't lived away from home in over 5 years. I'm itching for that independence again.

I'm ready to start cooking. (Yes, even though everyone knows I'm no domestic diva, I'm planning on doing everything in power to become one.) I'm ready to start keeping house.

I'm really ready to register...but that can't happen until at LEAST the fall.

I can't wait to become Anna Russell.

Ahh...hear how great that sounds? :)

Tuning in on Tuesday

I may or may not have a huge crush on Luke Bryan.

That man can MOVE!



Friday Love

I love what this artist has done to the Disney princesses.

You're welcome.

This is my song for the day.
