Last week was the a big wedding weekend, we had the big family shower for my brother-in-law and later that evening the bachelorette party my soon to be sister-in-law! Let me just say the shower was beautiful and magnificent, but the bachelorette was the best part of that day! We started out by meeting at mine and Luke's house where we were graced with the custom t-shirts for our dancing extravaganza we were about to attend. This "dancing" I'm talking about was the good old pole dancing and chair dancing lessons i've always heard about but swore I would never do! This is SO hard, not anything like I expected and it was so incredibly funny... Im pretty sure I was blushing the whole time! We all left sore and at our nice dinner at Nonna's (which we changed into actual cute clothes for) some of us had a little trouble even lifting our wine glass off the table from so much muscle fatigue :). I still have a bruise on the inside of my knee and one on my shin as well... so lesson learned, pole dancing IS NOT easy!
I also am playing out my passion of doing crafts and making a few things for my precious sister-in-laws wedding... this is so fun for me because it gives me a reason and a purpose to actually do something I love without feeling guilty about not doing house chores or grocery shopping :)
This is one of the chalkboards Im currently working on... Only "you are the" is 100% complete but I took a break from this one for a little while to work on a few other things, I just L.O.V.E. crafting!
Lucas and I also attended one of my greatest friend's wedding last night, it was absolutely beautiful and so incredible to get to catch up with old friends! Haley and Ben were such a lovely couple and as always just seemed so happy and in love, brought tears to my eyes! Im a sucker for love!
(isn't she beautiful!)
So now this week will consist of more crafts and the ongoing search for something that Mr.Smile and I can wear for his brothers rehearsal dinner... so far all we have are the cowboy boots as you've seen in previous posts and Im pretty sure it wouldn't go over very well if thats the only thing we showed up wearing!
And I have to end on another story that has no relation to weddings... The other night as the hubs and I were in the hot tub I saw a reflection of something moving in the window, I turned around only to see the creepy silhouette of a opossum crawling across the top of our fence against the night sky! Needless to say we got out of the hot tub because the bears weren't outside to protect us, not that i'd let them outside to get the opossum anyway!
(Im pretty sure this little bear would have given the opossum quite a scare with her lovely hair do)
