And just like that, a new week begins again. You know, I really love Mondays! When I was still at my corporate job, though, I can’t say I felt the same. Sunday nights were difficult too! I hope the freedom of Mondays won’t ever be lost on me- I get to wake up and choose what work I want to do, and it’s work that I LOVE. Mondays might just be my favorite day again!

On THIS particular Monday, we’re heading out in a few minutes for some gym time, and then we’re going to see Captain America: Civil War for the second time. Because movies that start before noon are SUPER cheap, and our local theater has those laz-y-boy type seats that recline.

And I will be bringing my own popcorn. Not because I’m a delinquent, but because as delicious as movie theater popcorn is, the copious amounts of butter-flavored oil always leaves me feeling sick. Can I get an amen on that?

As always, lessons learned/events that transpired over the past week!

  • Saturday’s wedding was my biggest one ever- you guys are going to die when you see it!! My bride & groom were absolutely stunning, and with a space like the Mellon and Engaging Affairs at the helm, you KNOW it’s going to be good. I’m so excited for you guys to see this one!
  • Also, DC weddings always keep you on your toes. We were supposed to have the first look at the Spanish Steps, but we received a call from Judd upon arrival that the area was currently packed with musicians and families, making a private few minutes impossible. Thank you, DC! (Don’t worry- we whisked the bride off to second location and it all went smoothly from there)
  • I went on a print-ordering binge a couple of weeks ago and now I have approximately 50 4×6’s, 5×7’s, and 8×10’s  sitting in my living room waiting for frames :). I love having this problem! #printsmatter
  • But then you realize the three frames you purchased to hang over your bed are 8×10’s, and so the three coordinating 5×7 prints you ordered won’t work. DANGIT.
  • Physical therapy is no joke. I sprained my ankle pretty badly back in March and have been going to PT because it wasn’t getting better on it’s own. My therapist’s been having me do exercises to help with balance and extension, and it’s got me sore all over!

Just a peek at Saturday’s gorgeousness! I can’t wait to share their entire fête on the blog on Thursday!
