Best Beach Chair!

Ohhh! I want this CHAIR! Ok...it's a tad dorky but who cares -- no more neck pain from reading on your tummy or trying to block the blinding sun with your little book while laying on your back!

The chair lets you relax in almost any position and allows you to read comfortably while tanning your back. Features include extra wide hardwood arms, a carrying handle, a cup holder, metal is rust free, and the fabric is quick to dry and easy to clean. I'll take it!

Our Honeymoon Plans!

The Bridesmaid Dresses!

Oh my goodness gracious! We finally picked out the bridesmaids dresses! I thought it would be a lovely idea to let the girls decide on what they wanted to wear (ex: just give them the color and they could pick the dress as a group), but with 2 months until the wedding and no dress in hand, we all started freaking-out a bit. So I called in the troops and we buckled down (a.k.a "crunch time" by my maids of honor) to find a dress together. This is it! I dig it.

P.S. A shout out to all my lovely bridesmaids! I love you girls so much! You're the best friends anyone could ever ask for. You guys mean the world to me.
