Vampire Diaries, to try or not to try?! That was the question I asked myself earlier as i tried to find a new show to watch on netflix. I've heard good things about it but didn't want to find out it was just another Twilight thing. Because lets face it I'm not the biggest Twilight fan I find it kind of a waste of time and didn't want to waste what little free time I have on something that resembles that movie. After all the good feed back i got about the show and quite a few people telling me to watch it, I'd be hooked, I decided to try it and if i wasn't happy a few episodes in I could just go on to the next top 10 recommended shows netflix had picked for me.
Well let me tell you, I love it!! There is drama, love (well what i think is and might become) action and parts that make me jump, and I love when movies.TV make me jump. I'm not that far into the first season but i can already tell this will be my new netflix obsession till I reach the end of season three. Charlie seems pretty content with it, hes been laying in lap through all 5 episodes, and let me tell you that's pretty hard for my hyper 65 lb pup!
Anyways I've decided Its a good thing i recently discovered this show on netflix because now that the new seasons of all my other shows are starting up I'm going to need something to keep me busy on all the nights i don't have a show picked out. I find myself never actually watching live TV, Mostly because I aways seem to sign up for classes that are on Monday and Thursday nights. This season however i will get to watch Greys Anatomy the night its actually on,and I'm pretty excited about that, it was always hard to concentrate in class knowing something epic could be going on. and i could never wait till the next day to watch, id come home and stay up way to late. However How I Met Your Mother, will still have to be recorded and watched the following day. Tuesdays I watch Pretty Little Liars and as far as i can remember i don't have anything the rest of the week so those days might just have to become my designated Vampire Diaries nights. So

1950's House Wives
Bridal shower theme: 1950's housewives. and it was a success!
I know bridal showers are supposed to be thrown by someone for the bride and the bride isn't supposed to help with it, but how could I resist with such an awesome theme like this? It was thrown by my mom and my moms friend, which technically they did the majority of it I just requested the theme and the color scheme and requested that everyone dressed up! and the majority of people did, even if it was just an apron people made the effort which was what was the best part!
We had tons of finger foods, which my mom did her best to make things that housewives in the fifties would have at their parties, shes pretty amazing for that! We also had a rum punch that was to die for (and not to mention strong), and of course what would a bridal shower be without fun games! We had one that tied in with the 50's, a how well do you know the bride, which supprisingly it wasn't the people I figured it would be. Then bridal bingo, which is a bingo card that the guests fill out with gifts they think I will receive, and when a present gets open that is on your card you mark it off!
Like i said before the day was a success and I had so much fun! The wedding is getting closer now and this is definitely the beginning of all the festivities! Next up-the Bachelorette party!!

The lovely ladies who made this possible(my mom on the right, her friend on the left)
some decorations
the favors were mini coke glasses made into candles and cookie cutters(because i love to bake, just like every 50's housewife should ) :)
what would a 50's party be without a record player. Those are actual barbies from the fifties, that my mom owned(even though she was not alive in the 50s) and that green box is a recipe box, every guest was asked to bring their favorite recipe, so now i have tons of stuff to cook
Red and teal, my awesome color scheme :)
My mom and Mother in Law- I love them both!! Yes I know shocking, but I actually got an awesome mother in law :)
One of the girls who dressed up! Also my awesome bridesmaid
My girls! bridesmaids and my adorable flower girl.
only one missing was my maid of honor
Tons of gifts! that I love and am so grateful for the friends and family i have
Another one of the girls who dressed the perfect housewife part!
Like i said before the day was a success and I had so much fun! The wedding is getting closer now and this is definitely the beginning of all the festivities! Next up-the Bachelorette party!!

im back
I started the blogging thing once before and i didnt really get very far with it,
School was crazy busy and I got very side tracked, but I figured I would start
it up again especially since I am going to have a lot of free time on my hands
come January. Right now im still in school but its not so busy at the moment so i have a little free time
Only 50 more days till mine and Adams wedding and I am pretty excited. Right now its just me, Charlie (the dog) and Luna (the cat), Adam (the soon to be husband) is off still in training. Adam recently got his duty station and come January we will all be moving to Fort Campbell Kentucky. Im a little nervous about the big move but honestly I am super excited. The only thing I am not excited about is Kentucky's lack of Beaches. I am deffianately a beach girl and my weekly summer trips to the beach just wont be possible. I will just have to find something else to occupy my time during the summer. Other than that I can't wait, Im obviously going to miss all my friends and family but i fell like a change of scenery will be good, somewhere different will give us a chance to start our lives together as husband and wife, did i mention only 50 more days!!
