Wedding Shower/Anniversary

Today we celebrated one of my best friends engagement with a Bridal Shower. This was hosted by the Brides family. Here is a picture of the Bridesmaids, (Bride in the center), minus one Bridesmaid out of town. This Bride will be the last of my friends to be married - we'll all be in the Married Club now!!! I also had my hair colored beforehand, and attempted the blond look today (2nd from the left)....the Hubs has been requesting this for a while, so I thought I would try it for the summer.

Here are pictures from me and my Hubs Anniversary Dinner, (unfortunately these were the only photos I was able to get out of him - but he was awfully handsome in them, so I'm good). Plus - you might notice that the dress I'm wearing is the same dress I wore for our Wedding Rehearsal Dinner. Great news, I can still fit into it after 2 years of marriage!!! Wahoo!!!!!

Dr. Pepper and PB&J's

I have found that over the past 3 months, that I have become slightly addicted to Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches, and Diet Dr. Pepper.

For a real treat I get my two wheat slices of bread, smear on a thick coat of Kroger creamy Peanut Butter on one slice and another thick coat of low sugar Smuckers Jelly on the other slice. I throw it in the toaster oven to melt the PB& J, and take it out when its nice and hot. I then pop open a cold Diet Dr. Pepper and feel my worries melting away. So niiiiice!

Easter

Easter has approached us once more. We had a very full day, which seems to be the common theme for Holidays. I gotta say I did not realize how busy Holidays would be after you got married. But then again, me and my Hubs did not spend every Holiday together before we got married, (met July, engaged same November, married that April). So the first year of Holidays - we were seeing more what goes on for each family and the 2nd year has been more of adjustments. Here is a picture of my brother-in-law's bday party (we included his birthday at Easter).

My sweet Hub's relaxing -

Being Sunday, I make most of my lunches/breakfast for the week, (getting meals together for the day tend to be hectic for me, so I do most on Sunday).

I have made a Pinterest breakfast, (which is where most of my meals are coming from these days):

I am a big fan of oatmeal for breakfast - gotta have my carbs first thing. The new recipe I found also had a breakdown of price, which I am also a big fan of CHEAP.

Yum!!!!!

Anniversary

Well - me and my Hunny have been married for 2 years this month. I am so happy where life has taken us and where we have come from 2 years ago. We've learned one anothers likes, dislikes, loves, stressors, comforts, humors, and emotions so much better. We've learned to always be for one another and support the others hopes and dreams. One of my favorite things are the pet names we have given one another. All though silly - always full of endearment he will call me either, "Booboo, Little Bear, Poo Poo, or Kel". So sweet and always makes me melt.

The first picture above is my absolute FAVORITE picture of my husband. As a favor to me, I requested that our wedding photographer to a picture of Chris the moment he sees me in my wedding gown. It alwasy makes me feel special seeing his face in this picture.

For this weekend, he is taking me to one of my favorite restaurants, (Maggianos). Then for the year ahead of us, we are planning on getting a 2 person kayak, (we live near a very large river), and are taking a trip to New York in December, (but details are still in the making).
