he put a ring on it

 

This weekend my little brother got engaged! I couldn’t be more excited. We (my entire family) love his fiance so much, she is so sweet, adorable, kind and she loves my brother  and Jesus so much. It was such a perfect evening. They went out on a lovely little date, he asked her to marry him by reading some journal entries to her  from a journal that he had been keeping for his future wife (yeah, so sweet huh?!). She was totally shocked and surprised. (I love that!) Then after their romantic dinner, my brother brought her back to our place to surprise her with a little party where all of their closest friends and some family were gathered. Again, she was so shocked and happy. It was so much fun to celebrate with them! I feel so blessed to have such an incredible brothers who I love so much and I feel like I have totally won the sister (in law, but they are just sisters to me!) jackpot as I have two sister-in-laws who are also two of my best friends. (The last photo is of us, from left to right my sister-in-law Tiff, my new sister-in-law to be Kendra & me) I love that! Such a happy weekend for my family.

happy friday!

This week has literally been a blur…of wedding invitations, design of some sort or another, printer proofs, emails, dinner planning, laundry, you know life! I am oh-so glad it’s Friday. I am trying to be better about taking at least one day off a week to do absolutely nothing. Bliss! I hope you had a lovely week and are going to make the most of your weekend as well. I will see you next week! – sb

sick day

 

It’s been a quieter week here on the blog…(yesterday’s post was all thanks to my wonderful husband). I have been out sick with a bad cold which was compounded by a an accompanying migraine (I suffer from chronic migraines). Yesterday I took a rare sick day and didn’t touch the computer once. On top of all of that I am up to my eyeballs in wedding invite designs right now (which I love!)…But needless to say I am a bit stressed. Anywhoo, I am feeling a little bit better today, I am going to answer a few emails and climb back into bed. I am praying for a restful, sabbath filled weekend of recuperation. I hope you have a lovely, quiet, restful, weekend as well. I’ll be back at it next week! – sb
