Papermints Rocks My World

For our wedding invitations (these are our actual invitations on her site!!) we used an amazing company called Papermints.  Samantha has out done herself again with this wall hanging and magazine spread.  I will let you see for yourself. There is no explanation necessary. 

Preps for CR

Tomorrow's a big day.  My hair won't be reallydarkbrownslashblack anymore.  I figured that since I'm going to Costa Rica in 12 days that I should do something great/different..and going blonde(ish) is what I came up with. Plus I want to look like Tami Taylor...(Coach's wife) from Friday Night Lights. Obsessed.

Trip Preparations are coming along quite nicely.  

I have made what I think are some pretty great purchases.  

Here they are:

1- Dakine Backpack.. complete with an insulated pocket to keep my beer cold- and maybe the occasional mango or avocado.

2- North Face Venture Jacket... for the rainforest.. and to protect myself from the monkey who decides to fling poop while we are traipsing through his home.

3- Juicy cross-body bag (brown leather)...LV can't come.

12 days left

Wow.. School is ALMOST over, however, I don't think it will end fast enough. When this school year comes to an end, I will have been teaching for 6 years... Longer than I was in college for. I still feel like I was at ECU yesterday... living in the sorority house having the time of my life.  Little did I know that 8 years later I would be having a different "time of my life." On the feeling old note, my 10 year HS reunion is this summer. HOW has it been TEN years since graduating from Langley?!!?!?!?!??!?!?!

Brett and I have a busy couple of weeks.  We have 2 bachelor/ette weekends, 2 destination weddings, end of school activities, a nephew being born, and then I leave for Costa Rica. EEK! How did the year FLY?! 

On top of this we have been married for almost 8 months!!!!!
