I beg you to read this post
Please take a look at this photo. Please realize who sad this story really is. Kevin is from my hometown. You know what they say about small towns? Small towns stick together. What happened to him could happen to anyone of us who go out to a bar on a Saturday night. Although I did not know Kevin I feel the need to post and share the information pertaining to his murder. A mistaken caused 3 men to brutally beat him to death on the streets. People must have seen things yet no one has been arrested for his murder.

Oh How Pinteresting- Hair and Nails
I have a serious obsession with nail polish. I really need to get a bit more obsessed with doing my hair! I have always had shorter hair styles but I decided about 3 years ago to grow it out after many requests of my then boyfriend, now fiancé. My hair is naturally curly. Not the nice curl. Its more of a fizzy mess most of the time. Often I pull my hair back or braid it instead of spending the time in the morning curling it or blowing it out. I'm hoping for some hair inspiration from Pinterest to go along with my nail obsession.
Linking up with Michelle.
BTW has anyone seen that awesome button over on my sidebar???

Thanks again Bethani!!!
Have a great Wednesday everyone!

My Best Friend's Wedding...The Reception
Jaclyn and Michael's reception was held at Orange County Park in their Stony Ford Golf Club. It was a crisp fall day. Thank goodness. One week prior to her wedding NY was under about 17 inches of snow, in October!
For the post on their ceremony post you can check here.

| Yummy red velvet cake. |
 |
| Amazing view. We got their a little earlier then most guests so Brian and I enjoyed the fantastic view. We even saw some hot air balloons land at a nearby airport. |
 |
| Happy Mr and Mrs D |
 |
| First dance- Led Zepplin "Thank You" |
 |
| Dancing with her pops. I love how happy her husband and mom were looking on so lovingly |
 |
| Hey hottie. I got to sit at the same table as this cutie. Lucky me! |
 |
| Can you tell I had been dancing??? |
 |
| Danced all night. The dj did a great job. His theme was music through the years. It was awesome. |
 |
| People have always confused us for sisters. |
 |
| We call this a Sleder Sandwich. |
 |
| My guy is a handsome devil! |
 |
| Lots of dancing fun!!! We had a great time. The food was good, drinks were great, dancing and music were fantastic. I was exhausted the next day. I had blisters on my feet for a week. I had to wear flip flops to work for days. It makes me even more excited for our wedding. I can't wait to dance the entire day away!!! Check here for details on what Brian and I wore. |

Honor...
Today is not just another day off. We must honor the man who this day is named for.
The time is always right to do what is right.

Steppin Out Saturday-Mediterranean
I am finally getting back normal around here. My lungs are not really 100% yet but I'm getting there. I've been so tired of sitting around that I forced my body to get dressed and go out yesterday. Nothing to exciting but we had a $100 gift card to Lowes in desperate need of spending and a hideous ceiling fan in need of replacing. Seriously, I've wanted this fan before we moved in and that was almost 3 years ago. I can't wait to put it up.
I also had to treat my guy out to dinner. He was so awesome this week taking care of me. I wanted to show my appreciation for all he does. I never really take him out on dates so it was far overdue. He choose a favorite Greek place. The Mediterranean Garden Cafe is by far the best Greek food I've ever had. I had Moroccan soup and Greek salad. Brian had a Kebob and we split hummus, bag ganoush, grilled eggplant and tabouli, Outrageous food!
(Like how I'm soaking my stove top burners in the sink or the dishes drying on the counter?)
Not many places to take pictures when its cold out but I'm a fan of the blue kitchen!
Details:
Jeggings: NY&co
Coral Tank: Old Navy
Shirt and Cardigan: Aerie, on sale for $7 each!
Shoes: Charlotte Russe
I LOVE THAT STARBUCKS CUP.
Another after Christmas sale item $8
It never leaves my hands!
Love the flowers on this tank and the bows on my shoes!
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.
Yay NY GIANTS! On our way to sunny San Fran next week.
Go Big Blue!

It's OK Thursday
So you guys may already know I've been really sick the past few weeks and I've been on bed rest since Monday. I guess this is the bed rest addition. I can't promise any thing real exciting. Life has been filled with mindless daytime television, blogs, whining and naps.
Oh well, here goes.
It's OK-
- To change from one pair of pajamas to the next.
-To only get off the couch to heat up my coffee and refill my vaporizer.
- To have changed my nail polish 6 times in 3 days.
-To be completely obsessed with reading The Help. After watching the movie last night and just want to run out and buy the book to read asap.
- To be doing lots of online shopping with money I don't have!
- To best EXTREMELY excited for the new and last season of One Tree Hill. Did you see the intro last night?? WHAT!?!?!
- To be extremely sad that its the last season of One Tree Hill.
- To be completely obsessed with this bridal site. Its my new favorite.
-To be bummed out I haven't been to the gym in 2 weeks. This is precious wedding body/gym time!!
-To piggy back off of the above statement I've been following up each meal with a lil bit of sherbet.
- To enter every blog giveaway I've seen this week.
- To get so annoyed when people only post healthy food pictures to Facebook. It says "Look at me I'm sooooo healthy" when they are probably following their quinoa, raw egg soup with a HUGE brownie sundae topped with hot fudge.
What are you OK with this week??
Before you go please check out Alyssa's post today. Its a very real and honest post about her dad. She's looking to the blog community to join the bone marrow registry.

Oh How Pinteresting- Honeymoon Fashion
I'm such a weirdo. I'm already looking towards honeymoon fashion but I haven't made any real honeymoon plans yet. I have a horrific fear of flying. I hate myself for it. Our last flight was a terrible one. Flying back from Florida 3 years ago only made my fear of flying worse. We were tossed around the plane, drinks wear thrown off trays from DC all the way up to Newark Airport. There were terrible storms up and down the east coast. We weren't able to get up at all during the flight. I had sorta panic attack in the middle of our flight. Most of the kids on the flight were crying. It was a nightmare and I don't know if I could bring myself on a plane anytime soon.
I think we are looking towards a 7 day cruise to Bermuda. Brian has been all over and I haven't really been anywhere besides Florida and England. I really wanted to go some where that he has never been. I can't get past the fact that he has traveled to all these Caribbean Islands with ex girlfriends. I highly doubt he will be thinking of his exes but I'm a bit nuts! So be it! Brian has been to Bermuda on a cruise with his family when he was a teenager and he really thinks I will love it. We shall see!
But until then here are some imaginary outfits I may have to track down before we do any traveling.
Linking up with Michelle.
Where are you going on or where have you been on your honeymoon?
