Need to organize.....


So I have 2 spare bedrooms now that I live in Chanhassen. Rick and I have designated one room for his space and one mine.. Currently they are both a HUGE mess! I would love to get my room more organized so it can be a useful creative spot. I found this images on design sponge - another favorite blog. I find it extremly inspiring for "my creative space".

My Husband


This is by far my favorite picture of Rick! I Love him!
( as stated before all our wedding photos were captured by the truely talented Michael Blaha)

Wedding Part 2: The Men







Rick spent his morning at Chatterbox a local family restaurant where they have board games and old school Nintendo. I think he looked exceptionally sharp in his black tux. His brother Rob was best man and my brother Joe and brother in law Aaron stood up as well. Our favorite was my nephew who has such a BIG character. Rick and him wore the same shoes for fun! We decided to have a bit of fun with the boutonnieres and made them out of guitar picks – Rick plays guitar, we choose a Concert venue for our reception, and we had a live band so it definitely fit the theme! Check out his lightning bolt socks that matched our color scheme!

If only...


If I could pick one way to spend my Tuesday night I would spend it sipping wine on this hillside in Italy with my favorite people. What would we eat for dinner? I would want Red wine in my glass for sure. The weather would be a perfect 65 degrees cool enough for a cardigan but warm enough to not need a jacket.

Wedding Part 1: Just the Girls!






The morning went so fast and I had so much racing through my mind! Michael Blaha our photographer definitly did an AMAZING job capturing the moments of the morning. Adrianne Gammie a friend from work made my silk Faille dress. My dear friend Anna Poston created my Sparkle adorned belt and showed me how to make my own veil The bridesmaid dresses are from J.Crew. I just Loved the color! I made the flower girl dress for my niece. It was such a fun morning walking through down town Minneapolis dressed to impress my future husband.
