Weekend Recap

After being cut off from cable and internet for four days, our built-ins are ready! I have to say I am more than pleased with how they turned out.



We celebrated Sarah and Hunt's engagement over the weekend at Babylon. Fun venue with great friends and a wonderful reason to celebrate! Can't wait to celebrate their upcoming wedding in September!

Wedding Countdown

With Khaner and I finishing our premarital sessions at church, picking up our marriage license, and my bachelorette weekend almost here, I am becoming increasingly excited for the wedding! Yesterday some guest favors I had ordered finally arrived at the house. 

Bags for hotel guests - with Raleigh being the City of Oaks, and our reception in a lovely courtyard with big trees, I figured it was appropriate

Hand towels for bathroom

Cocktail napkins

The koozies came out darker than I expected, but nonetheless,  I am satisfied with how they turned out.

Cyber Sales

You would think working in e-commerce for the past three years would educate me on how not to fall into a marketer's buying trap. Furthermore, working in email marketing specifically, I would know the purpose of Ann Taylor's most recent subject line of 40% off Everything plus Free Shipping is to get me to convert. Well done, Ann Taylor. You got me. 

I do like this color, and I have to say, I don't own many striped pieces in my wardrobe.



Oh wait, I couldn't possibly pass up the gray and yellow striped one, when it IS 40% off. Just saying.


Luckily I have a very easy-going CFO in my household ;)
