Shmaugust. Yea, I said it.

NEWNESS ABOUNDS!

You know why?

'Cause it's freaking FRIDAY people! Get some coffee in your system... get through those emails... and get pumped!!!!

So today I am coming at you with the August monthly top 20. It's honestly... Really riveting.
I am also linking up to Ashley's Friday Letters, over at the Adventures of Newlyweds. Have you guys checked out her blog yet? You stinkin' should. My sister introduced me to it a while ago, and I am hooked.

So no more talking. Let's get down to business.

Friday Letters:
Dear Body, thank you so much for responding to my not eating this week. Those extra lbs you packed on in LA really were fun, but I'm glad we were able to reconcile with eachother. Dear LA, are you joking me? Mountains, beaches, cool air, 100% sunshine, and my best friends, all in the same place? Screw you. Dear Summer, PLEASE stick around for a bit longer. I will be seriously depressed when you leave. But only for a moment's time, because you know I sleep around with fall. Dear man who saw me bust on my bike yesterday after leaving Local 46, you are welcome sir. You are welcome. Dear old nasty turn-of-the-century bathroom in my rental house, clean yourself for once, why dontcha. Dear Dolly Parton, I know that you are the one laying those new, beautiful sand colored eggs in the coop. Thanks for being a chicken after my own unique heart. Dear Garden Zucchini, are you joking me? WHO GROWS LIKE THAT? You are like a highschool boy eating pure protein and lead. Slow down please. Dear Burley, I think our fights are getting cleaner. I'm so thankful for that. Macey is a little less scared of us now.






















































OH WAIT!!! Before you go. Guess what's happening next week?

Oh you don't know? Let me tell you.






















I may or may not have had a few too many margaritas last night, and decided to write out Burley and I's love story in 3 parts. Yup. That's right. Next week is all dedicated to LOVE LOVE LOVE. Are you sick yet? Don't be. It's actually pretty entertaining if I do say so myself. Which I do. Because I wrote it.

SO in addition to our love story, I am also going to be touching on some tips and tricks that I used in order to have one of the cheapest and amazing DIY weddings ever. Are you dying to know how much we spent? Tell you next week. A CLIFF HANGER. She shoots. She scores.


TTFN,

    1. Man - I hate to say it, but Margaritas specifically do spark some creativity in me that I really like haha. And I don't hate to say it. Hate and margaritas don't belong in the same sentence. ROCK THAT LEOPARD GIRL. I freakin' love your style. Consider me your #1 instagram stalker.
