I knew I loved Colorado for a reason

Call me crazy, but I just love weddings when they're done right. Seriously nothing would make me happier than to be able to plan people's weddings for the rest of my life.

Just stumbled across this one that was done in Aspen. There is just something about those Colorado Rockies that I cannot resist. LOVE. To see the full wedding, clickity click here.

Empathy

You know how everyone has their pet attribute they continually work on over and over and over? Mine is empathy. I believe that if everyone were more empathetic, life would be better. period. Just imagine if everyone always tried to really understand how you felt and why...it'd be great if everyone would just TRY to be an ounce more this way.

My friend Matt wrote this post the other day about understanding others, and it made me smile. Love how concise he is...such a great guy!

Bear Lake

Spent conference weekend up in Bear Lake with the Bushnell family. It ended up being so perfect, I really needed some time to just chill, relax, and re-energize after the craziness of last week. A big thank you to Dan for inviting me.





{such a fun family to spend the weekend with}

Continuing the Revamp

Ok, so back when I moved into my house a month ago, I got on a kick of repainting and decorating everything in my room. The room went from stark white everything to heather grey and charcoal, with pops of yellow...and I love it! But, I didn't quite have the nerve to paint the dresser. I mean, paint? I could see how a stain could work well, but was quite skeptical about the whole paint idea...til I stumbled across this. I'm thinking white and black...mmm? It'd hands down look infinitely better than the current brown state that it's in, yes?




Oh and I'm thinking I'm going to add a demi partition via a hanging curtain gathered and cinched to the wall by my short bookshelf to split the space. White, I believe. That way I can finally feel good about going all out on my vintage lace inspired wall. Black lace on the heather grey wall and cream lace on the charcoal. It should be fab. Ahh still can't believe this darn room has taken me a month to get done! I'll be sure to post photos when it all comes togetha.


And yes, I know, I should be studying. But I just can't concentrate! I can do like thirty minutes of focus to every ten of something else. Oh my word, it's bad.

Dear School

Dear School,

The only thing I want in life right now is to curl up in my bed, not set my alarm, and fall asleep.

But no. I still have one more exam I need to study for and take tonight. Make it end, please please please make this horrible week end! The sooner, the better.

Thanks,

B
