Surprise Date Day / Glamping
Honestly, Adam rocks. He is the master at planning surprise date days, and all other date days for that matter, but this one takes the cake. One day he planned a date day(s) and told me to pack something casual, active and warm. Now, I don’t care what genre you tell me, I just want to wear a dress. Lucky for me, when he came to pick me up he told me to put on pants. So, before we left he asked if I could pick up a few things at the store; garlic, a tomato, onion and sirloin steak….now, one would think this was a dead camping giveaway, but…

What I’m loving / St Tropez Tanning Mousse
I don’t know about you but for me having a tan makes me feel about a million times better (and like 10 lbs skinner!) This summer has already been so nuts that I haven’t had a lot of time to just go relax on the beach and work on my tan so I’ve enlisted the help a sunless self tanner. I’ve heard excellent things about all St Tropez products so I decided to give it a try. I was nervous to try it being a self tanner virgin and all but it was SO easy guys, really! I love the tanning mousse so much and having the tanning mitt was…

The Sofa Struggle
Lately Megan & I have been discussing redecorating our small apartment, but we get discouraged easily. Mostly because we don’t want to spend money and we can’t decide on the same furniture. Most recently we have been trying to figure out which sofa we want. Either a more expensive one that will last longer, or a cheaper one that will give instant gratification but won’t stand the test of time. The struggle is real. Tell us which one you like…. Option #1 – The Velvet Willoughby Sofa by Anthropologie ($1,998.00)Option #2 – The Antwerp Sofa by West Elm ($1,299.00)Option #3 – The Stocksund sofa by Ikea ($599.00)

Friday Favorites
These puppies are going to have a forever home on our fingers in SIX WEEKS. SIX people! It’s all feeling very real and we’re headed to pick up our marriage license in the next week or so which, I’m sure, will up the anty then. We booked our flights for our mini moon after the wedding to Seattle and Portland (have any great recommendations for either city? Send them our way!). It’s going to be a great little getaway after all of the wedding festivities! This weekend my girlfriends are taking me out for my bachelorette party and I can’t wait! What are you doing this weekend? A few fun…
