My Boyband Has Incredible Taste

So this past Saturday, Adam and I decided to go out and find the tux he'll wear for our wedding. Since the colors are black, white and hot pink, we weren't without choices. All that being said, Once we walked in Adam instantly was drawn to the same tux I was.


He'll look pretty friggen awesome in my opinion. Instead of that icky maroon tie, he'll wear a hot pink one. The best part was that we got this tux for an amazingly good price all because we decided to go with our own tie instead of theirs. Let's just say we saved around $25 and LOVE Clark's Tuxedos. PS... the sale's guy was nice enough to let us rent the tux for my bridal pictures for half the price. Um, can anyone say, "Yes, Thank you!"

For those of you who know Adam well, you know that he's a holiday scrooge. He hates everything about the holidays except for being able to work for time and a half. I bite my tongue for now and let him work his holidays away. But he knows once we have kidlets running around things will change. For some bizarre reason though, this year he let me put up my Christmas tree in his house. I know... shock and awe! It's a little on the pathetic side mainly because the lighting in that old house just sucks, but also because what do you expect?! We're new at this set up your own decorations business.


Speaking of decorations, we were fortunate enough to attend the RE/MAX Results Christmas Party. Debbie, my co-worker, decided that we needed to buy some PVC pipe to make a sort of backdrop to hide the kitchen from the main seating area. When she casually mentioned not knowing what she'd do with it afterwards I quickly offered to buy it. So for a grand total of $25.26 I purchased a backdrop to use at our wedding. Here is a picture of the basic frame with one sheet hanging from it. We'll obviously add more than just one, but we're thinking that hanging lights behind it would be fun.


I called about my dress today and was told to check back in a week. I'm pretty excited to get that thing here so we can start doing alterations and get my bridals done. Lots going on around here for sure.

Have I mentioned?

I have probably the cutest nephew ever. I know, I know. Everyone says that. But seriously, look at how cute he was in his little Thanksgiving outfit?
