Adorable gift idea!


As I was blog stalking, which seems to be all I do these days (don't you worry I am going to be back with a vengeance after the wedding), I came across the cutest gift idea ever.

I am not a fan of giving gifts unless I really feel they are meaningful and I think this would be such a meaningful and sweet gift. I am going to do it for someone someday.

Go check it out here.

High Heels

I want to make a little commentary about walking in heels. I don't know if you have ever noticed or paid attention to a girl trying to walk quickly in heels. It is something of a half walk, half trot.

Picture this...

Woman wearing AT LEAST a two inch heel and holding hands with loving husband/fiance/boyfriend. The couple is obviously in a hurry so the husband/fiance/boyfriend is walking at a hurried pace.

Because of the hand holding, woman is required to keep up with this pace which can prove to be difficult when wearing heels because it takes so much balance to walk in those suckers.

The result...
- 3 steps gracefully walking
- Realizing you can't keep up
- 7 little running toe steps to catch up
- Cycle begins again

When watched from a distance this is a very entertaining movement. Funny how as women we are going for the look of grace and femininity by wearing heels but often end up looking like a confused horse unsure whether to walk or trot.

Which one??

I have a dilemma...I don't know which engagement picture to send with our invitations. The decision fiance and I made on Saturday was on the first photo but now I am wondering if that one is the best (I won't say my reasons because I want to get an accurate poll, I also know that the second photo is very similar to the first but just work with me here). Anywho...which photo do you think would be best to send out with our invitations? A, B or C?
A

Engagement Photos

Well we have our engagement photos and boy did we like them! There were so many to choose from which made it hard to choose just ONE photo to send with our invitations (I am still up in the air on which one to send). Anywho...here are a few of my personal favorites. If you are interested in seeing ALL of the photos you can check them out here at Swensen Photography's Web site or you can see a few more on my Facebook here.

taking over my brain

When you look at this picture what do you see?

You know you are doing WAY too much wedding planning when you see the silhouette of two strapless wedding dresses (I don't even believe in strapless wedding dresses!).

They are science beakers. Science beakers people! I see dresses. True story.

Is April 24th here yet?
