Carly's wedding!

Carly & Hunter

tie the knot!

This past weekend, my friend Carlynn got married! She is one of my favorite friends. I've know Carly ever since I can remember! We went to elementary, middle, and high school together. We even swam together on the swim team in high school! However, I didn't really become good friends with her until after we graduated high school and began to work together at the lower school doing aftercare!

The ceremony & reception was held at the Historic Rice Mill on Lockwood Dr.

It was absolutely beautiful and the weather was perfect for an outside ceremony!!

Here are some pictures from her big day!

Carly & I

Adam, Nichole, & The Peanut Factory!

OK, so this past weekend was my cousin's wedding in Conway, SC {for those of you who don't know where that is, it's near Myrtle Beach}. Adam married this beautiful girl Nichole, and I just love her! She is too sweet! They had their reception at the Peanut Factory! It is an old factory that they transformed into a beautiful reception! This was the most beautiful wedding I have ever been too. {Well, mine was first, but this one was different} These pictures don't do justice of how beautiful it really was. There was so many details put into this wedding and reception, and I think that is why I loved this wedding so much! My favorite part of the wedding: they had Marble Slab come to the reception and you could get as much ice cream as you want with any mixins!!!!!! It was awesome, I had birthday cake with cookie dough mixins. YUM!

Vintage Postcards for everyone to write on for the Bride & Groom! They had this awesome Funk band play for the reception, they were awesome, and they had dancers too! {notice the girl in the tassel dress}

Amazing Entryway with live flowers & beautiful chandeliers

Marble Slab station! {Notice the donut hole pile. Nichole wanted that for her cake, but her mom said no, so she got a pile next to the ice cream.}

They covered this part of the wall with bushery & they brought in a live tree for decorations!!!

Part of the room, notice the beautiful paintings brought in, there was about 7 of these painting with glass flowers and live branches on them!

Mama Nell and her girls {me, Blair, Meribeth}. I love this picture, and I love my grandma! :)

I love this picture of Mike and me! He is so handsome! <3

Tervis Tumbler

If you know me at all, you know that I always have one of these Tervis Tumblers with me, pretty much all the time. They really are the best cups ever. My stepmom introduced me to them when her and my dad got married in 2005. I first I thought they were kinda weird {she had some with lighthouses on them}. Then I realized what a great cup they were and I received a couple as gifts, and I have never turned back! They can keep drinks hot or cold. I normally carry them where ever I'm going, and they come in really cute designs!

These ones are initial ones {believe it or not out of the 12 that we have, we don't have any with our initials on them!}You can buy them at Bed, Bath, & Beyond {use a 20% off coupon and get it at a good price}

We registered for a lot of them for our wedding, so our collection has grown over the year that we've been married, but Tervis Tumbler always comes out with a cuter pattern, and now they have all these different colored lids to go on them, so I've been going a little crazy lately! :)

My mom bought the Bride & Groom cups for us to do our toast with at our wedding! It was the cutest thing ever!

Here we are at our wedding with our tervis tumblers!

I still use my Bride cup very often, well... actually I have 2 sizes in the the Bride one, because my friend Christina gave me the bigger one when I got engaged & I love them because it reminds me of the season of my life when I was preparing for my wedding!

I love tervis tumblers!

The next one that I think I might get will be an initial one, or a personalized one with my monogram!

Do any of yall have a certain item that you absolutely love and use all the time???
the Tervis Tumbler is my one item that I love!

**I didn't get paid for doing this

{that would be nice though, I could be a Tervis Tumbler seller... lol}

It's such a good product!

twin baby girls, shopping, and friends!

The biggest news of the week is that Jenny had her twin baby girls!!!!!!! They are such sweet little miracles, and what a blessing from God!!!! Sadie and Rylan are such beautiful little ones that are already bringing so much JOY to so many people! :) I went to go visit Jenny in the hospital, but I didn't get any good pics, so I'm posting a pic of Jenny and me from this summer when she was pregnant! The girls were completely healthy and absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Jenny is going to be one of the best moms I know! :) She totally rocks, she even brought the girls to church when they weren't even a week old! Go Jenny for getting out of the house! :)

Today I went to Old Navy and I purchased 14 items of clothing all under $5 a piece! I found some amazing deals, and after taking 3 trips to the fitting rooms, I got some good steals! My total bill was $40! I also had a 15% off your entire purchase coupon, thanks to OldNavyweekly.com. I love getting coupons off there! You can't beat that! My favorite items that I go were 2 pairs of yoga pants for $2.50 each!!!!! I will definitely be rockin those at school when I want to wear something comfortable, and hopefully they will inspire me to start working out more.... We'll see how that goes! Here is my clothes piles of everything I bought! :)

I had lunch with some friends this week Carissa and Michelle. Here's some pictures of our fun outing at the mall. I told Christina I would post some pics of Stone! He is just getting so big, and he is going to be such a sweet big brother coming up in November!!! Yay! :)

Carissa' little boy Hunter is SUPER CUTE and I love his sweet CHUNKINESS.

Next, we had the Middle School ALL NIGHTER. It was Crazy fun, and yes, I did stay up all night long.... I was so out of it all night long, so I only took about 5 pictures and none of them really turned out good, and were not good enough to blog about, so I just decided to post this cute picture of my and my friend April. Both of our hubbys are in ministry, and I just love her. This was us last week when a bunch of us went to go get sushi after Groundswell on Wednesday night. We're in small group together and it's awesome! :)

Yesterday after I slept all day to make up for staying up all night from the allnighter I went to my friend's wedding from work, Alex and her new husband Scott. It was a fun wedding, the people I work with at Northwood are so crazy fun. I love it! I wore my new favorite dress too! (Purple just seems to be my color this season!). I took this group pic of all the guests that came to the lingerie party. So fun! :)

I have two weddings coming up this month that I am looking forward to: Kyndal & Jonathan, and Sarah & Billy! Lots of birthdays are coming up too, including Mike's!!!!! Lots of fun in OCTOBER!!!! :)
