Sharing a quiet moment in this week’s 52. It has been a crazy month and I am looking forward to things slowing down. The wedding is less than a month away and I’m still sorting out little details here and there. We are starting to paint our colorful walls back to white and box up our belongings for our move in June. I am also giving a presentation on Saturday for my research project. It’s my final presentation for my master’s degree. I have some butterflies in my stomach, but I know I’m ready. Like I said, I just can’t wait for things to slow down a bit.
And now, my week in photographs…
Sunday (April 22nd): Can’t get enough of these 365 Brand Popsicles from Whole Foods. The Caribbean Mix, Coconut and Strawberry are all extremely delicious.
Monday (April 23rd): I’ve always been a fan of old movies. On this particular evening, I watched “The 7 Year Itch” and “Dial M for Murder.” What do I love best about these movies? The fashion! Gosh, it’s just so incredible. I am particularly fond of the dresses that each starlet is introduced in. Our first glimpse of Ms. Monroe is in this cheery polka dot sundress and our first glimpse of Ms. Kelly is in this drop dead gorgeous red lace number.
Tuesday (April 24th): A little walk around a Portland neighborhood.
Wednesday (April 25th): It was an incredibly busy day. Cory and I woke up early to head downtown to meet with our wedding photographer so he could take a closer look at our venue. We will be getting married in front of those three big, beautiful stained glass windows, surrounded by antique furniture (take a look at that gorgeous gold mirror) and our closest family and friends. The three of us then decided to stroll down a few blocks to scout out a location for formal photos after the ceremony. After a few test shots, Cory and I went to go get our marriage license/certificate. It’s feeling more and more real every day. I will be his wife and he will be my husband!
Thursday (April 26th): How wonderful is it walking down the streets and seeing cherry blossoms strewn about?
Friday (April 27th): Wedding favor research!
Saturday (April 28th): Had two of our very best friends over for dinner and game night. I love hosting get togethers and am hoping to host a ton more once we are settled into our new place.
