Something Saturdays (9/20/14)

Fun fact: I used to measure time by Arthur. If I asked how long church was my mom would say "2 Arthur's". This is how intrinsic it was to my child psyche.

Well, last weekend was A BLAST. So amazing to spend the entire weekend with my bestie. Plus we found some really amazing bridesmaid dress options (and probably some shoes for them online, as well. Alex already ordered them from Amazon to test 'em out). I also found my veil and tiara (that's right. TIARA. Don't judge me.)-which I then bought on  Tuesday after I had my mom come and look at them (50% off-what whaaaat.) And some other accessory things were sorted out/pondered upon. Also we ate a lot of food, watched movies/TV (including our favorite old film, "Pillow Talk"), laughed a lot, gave each other hard times, bickered, and met with Alex's younger sister (and a bridesmaid in my wedding), Carrie. Just like when we were kids :D.

Michael started his new job this week. New job also equals new schedule, so we had to readjust to waking up early again (although earlier. In NY we woke up at 7 every morning. Up until now we've been sleeping in until 9 or 10 AM--or 11/12 if you're Michael. Now we have to wake up at 5 AM. Eep.)

Also had some more florist appointments-including 1 place that has worked with my church for...um...ever, and they're friends of my maternal grandparents. And they gave me my lowest quote yet. So they're def. a front-runner. AND I had my first fitting/serious alterations meeting with my mom's dress and my alterations woman. We're making real progress and I'm starting to (mostly) feel better about it (although there are certain times where it's so frustrating when I want to change something but am told I "can't". Urghh.)

Plus it was Michael's birthday week!!! Due to busy-ness we unfortunately weren't able to make it as special as I would have liked, but we tried. :) I made him cheesecake (recipe coming soon) and was extra nice to him. We also had his birthday dinner with his mom's side of the family last night, plus Michael's best friend (and best man), his wife, and their daughters were there. It was so fun!


Recipes from the blog that I made this week
Cheesy Chicken and Potato Chowder

Movies/TV Talk (assume there'll be spoilers)
Finding Carter-I'm soooo sad about Max/Taylor annnd ERMAGERD stupid friggin Lori kidnapped her AGAAAAAIN. Aghhh! (Also pretty sure that Lori and David had a relationship-either prior to or during him being with Elizabeth-and her whole "woman spurned" thing is what made her stalk them and, I guess, kidnap Carter.) 2015 cannot get here soon enough!

Love at First Sight-Awww Cortney/Jason and Doug/Jamie are soooo cute!
