That Time I Got Up on a Wall for an Outfit Post in front of my Family

Talk about embarrassing, I wanted to just take a few pictures before the night got going, but Mr. said, get up on that wall, the pictures will be amazing. If you can't tell not only my lipstick was bright red but so was my face.

I thought I color corrected this picture, but I guess not. Oh well. You get the idea. This is what I wore to the wedding on Saturday. Want to know the best part? I didn't even have a dress before Thursday to wear to the wedding. But I went shopping with my mom and found this dress in the sale section of Ann Taylor and then there was an additional 60% off, can you say score?!

Those baby hairs are really annoying, but I guess I should be thankful that my hair is growing back after losing a LOT of it after Mini Fox came.

In case you wanted to see Mr. dressed up.  Isn't he the cutest?

That's right, I was standing on that wall behind us

In other happenings, a friend down the street just had a baby and I thought I would make some homemade mac and cheese, cause who doesn't love homemade mac and cheese. The recipe is super easy, and I put them in these square foil dishes. It came in a three pack and I used two of them, so they could either put one in the freezer for later, or just so they could have fresher mac and cheese tomorrow. So simple to do, and they were so thankful.

Don't you just love newborn sleepiness?

He slept the whole time I was there...he's so cute and I think he's going to be a great pianist because his fingers are so long! I think he was born to be one!

My Computer Maxed Out

I wanted to have this great post for you guys today, but guess what happened yesterday? I went to load all of my pictures from the weekend, and I realized I didn't have enough room on my hard drive to load the pictures. So I spent all of yesterday, moving pictures around to different hard drives and making DVD of pictures so that I have a back up to my back up. I don't know what I would do if I lost everything...probably cry...really hard.

In case you wanted to know how many pictures I've taken, I only take jpegs (so no RAW photos) and since Mini Fox was born in September, I've taken 33 GB of pictures. Yes and that doesn't count the special occasions that I've taken, so let's just round up to at least 35 GB of pictures, in 11 months. You can imagine how many photos I have. It's crazy.

I did manage to send some pictures from my phone.

Friday we had a play date with these kids, it might be a while till our next Friday play date all together, sniff, sniff. Guess we'll really have to plan to hang out on the weekends!

The lady in the middle is going back to work...

Saturday we went to Cousin #9's wedding, boy was it fun! I'll recap later this week, it was that fun. Seriously, the pictures are awesome.

Waiting for the ceremony to begin.

Gotta love the new hairs that are growing in...at least they are growing back, must be thankful instead of annoyed

Silly faces

We didn't get back till 1am, yesterday was spent sleeping in, relaxing and getting ready for Monday work.

Hope you guys had a great weekend! I know we did!

Wedding Season is Over...and Fun Facts Friday

With wedding season officially over, I thought I would share all the weddings I've been in. I've been in 7, 8 including my own. I was in two weddings just this summer. Both of them were planned quickly, so I ended up having to buy two bridesmaids dresses in the same month, ugh! But I was so excited to be asked to share in each of their big days. One of them I was even the Matron of Honor (who else hates that term, seem like it should only be used for old people, I'm not THAT old).
