wal{ker}r wedding weekend:

the events leading up to and following the big event (wedding pictures to follow).

My best friend got married in Destin, FL last weekend, and we had the absolute greatest time. Unlike most weddings, I loved how we all got to hang out together for a mini-vacation all weekend. Everything was so perfect. It made me realize how much I love my ridiculously weird/fun friends. Holly's fiances friends fit in well with the group. I laughed so hard all weekend, and hated to see everything come to an end. They were engaged for 18 months, so it feels like we have been looking forward to it forever. I'm so happy for her, and I hope I get to have something similar one day!

the e-commerce site is up, and i couldn't be more excited.
i love {madewell's} denim and effortless attire, but it has
always been hard to purchase anything when there is not
one near me nor an online shopping site... until today!

Nordstrom always puts on a killer half-yearly sale.
i found several great deals online,
but i'm dying to actually go in the store.

hopefully they will still have some stuff left next week
when i make it to the city.
i really want a large gold watch.
if i buy one thing, i am dying for these platforms.

i love that MICHAEL Michael Kors always has a bag
in this beautiful blush color.
cute little wishbone necklaces.
precious juicy laptop case.
start shopping now here.

graduation weekend.

last weekend i graduated from Texas A&M
University.

it's amazing how fast 4 years flies by.
i can remember moving into my first apartment
with my best friend and starting this new chapter
in my life.

so much has changed since first moving to College Station,
both good and bad, but it has been such a
growing experience and i know there was a reason
i ended up there.

on friday, several of my friends came to town and
we went to eat dinner at Christopher's.
the food was amazinggg.
saturday, i graduated bright and early at 9am.
my sweet friends who sat through another graduation..
it lasted 3 hours long!
two of my oldest/best friends.
after graduation we had lunch at the country club with my extended
family and friends.
saturday night my dad gave us some cheddar's certificates
so we went to dinner and then did some dancing out on the town.

sunday, the leftovers went to lunch and then to see Iron Man.
i realllly liked it.
... on to the next chapter.
i can't wait to see what God has in store!
