Engagement Photos Are In!

It was so cold and windy when we got our engagement pictures taken last Friday. My hair was blowing all over the place and I was shivering most of the time. It was too cold to wear the outfits I had originally picked out. I did get to wear one dress with a sweater. I ran to the store last minute to get some tights so my legs wouldn't freeze. Did anyone else have to change their engagement photo attire last minute due to weather? Good thing it didn't rain!

I squealed a little bit when I got a message from our photographer today saying that our engagement pictures were done a week earlier than we were expecting!

Waiting to see my blue shoes


My shoes came in today! Unfortunately, they are 2 1/2 hours away at my mom's house, so I have to wait til this weekend to see them in person.

My mom told Ben that they looked blueish gray, so I was really worried they wouldn't look anything like what I was expecting since I ordered a cobalt/sapphire color.

Ben drove to my house to take a picture for me- what a sport!

While they look a little lighter than the swatch, they definitely don't look gray! I can't wait to see them in person this weekend.

My shoes were purchased from the dyeable collection at Payless Shoes for $49. They were having a buy one get one half off sale, so I got a pair of dyeable flats in the same color for $15.

New Jobs

It's been a few weeks, but I have exciting news!

My fiance and I both got teaching jobs within the last two weeks. We will both be teaching music and are now going to start looking for a house!

We are getting married in 74 days, I have 17 teaching days left, and I just can't wait for everything that this summer holds!
