Me and Jess.

Picture Challenge - Day Twenty-seven.

I really like this one. From St. Pattys Day this year but I wanted to bring it back for the challenge. This was a special day, the start or something good...

Love,

Picture Challenge - Day Twenty-six.

Fancy dress up dinner with T. : ]

Picture Challenge - Day Twenty-five.

Me sporting Thomas's glasses at dinner the other night. No, my face is not this freakishly pale, it's just the flash on T's iphone.

We had a fun dinner at which last minute T ended up being the only man amongst a crowd of beautiful ladies. What a rough life, huh? ; ]

Love,
B

Picture Challenge - Day Twenty-four.

Happy Easter to you all. : ] I hope it's been a special one. Today marks a year since I began a weight loss journey and I rang in this easter half the size I was last year. Pretty exciting stuff. Wanted to show you all my new dress my mom bought me for Easter as well. So far it's been a great day. Worshiped with Thomas and his family at his church, Lifepoint, this morning and then had a delish lunch with them. Headed to Maggianos to finish a great Easter over dinner with them tonight.

Love,

B

Picture Challenge - Day Twenty-three.

Somehow I think neither you all nor I will be sad when this whole pic thing is over with. ; ] But it's been a good challenge and all.

This pics from last night before T and I went to the good friday service at church. It was so fun to finally worship together for the first time. We're spending tomorrow (Easter) with his family at his church so it was fun to get to introduce him to my pastors and church family Friday at the service.

I hope you're all having a special Easter weekend.

Love,

B

Ps: The red velvet pancakes were delish. Try em.

Picture Challenge - Days 21 and 22.

Night out. : ]
Headed back from the eye doctor with their 'sunglasses' inserted in my real glasses because my pupils were dilated. Awesome.

Picture Challenge - Day Twenty.

Trying the fedora I bought for Thomas on for size... I'm a little scary here, let's be real.

Picture Challenge - Day Seven.

Guess who's learning to cook? This girl. Sporting an apron from my Mom, baking a Santa Fe Chicken Casserole, drinking a diet coke with fresh limes.

The casserole turned out delish and it was easy to make so I also thought I'd share it with you. You can find the recipe here.

I'm actually loving learning to cook lately. Trying new things. Bringing a certain someone food to try. : ] It's been a fun new adventure.

Love,

B

Picture Challenge - Day Six.

Today's post comes with a few confessions. I confess that I literally stalk Nordstrom Rack's sale items. And when the ones I love hit just the right price, I buy. It's a challenge. I make it a game. And I win. Let's be honest we ALL know how much I love to win, at anything. I also confess that when I shop I take pictures of myself in the dressing room, like the one below and send them to a friend,frequently Lindsay, for their opinion. My most recent purchase (this week) was this coral reef colored dressed by Halogen, a brand I've recently taken a new interest in. This was the day after the South Carolina road trip so excuse my tired looking self. Things just got real. Love, B

Picture Challenge - Day Five.

Another picture of Thomas and I from this weekend. Since I showed you all my brunch dress I thought I'd show you that I did in fact wear it (and three other dresses) this weekend.

This picture posting thing isn't so bad so far.

Love,

B

Picture Challenge - Day Four.

Well I'm back from South Carolina and we had a great trip/wedding weekend. I thought I'd go ahead and share a picture from the reception. Please note my fabulous blue shoes and my handsome boyfriend. ;] Love, B

Picture Challenge - Day 3.

I've made a few plugs for alterations recently and how they can make or break an outfit. I bought this dress on clearance at the BCBG outlet to wear to a brunch this weekend while I'm away with Thomas for his cousins wedding. I wanted something bright and springy. I'm thinking I may rewear it for Easter Sunday? Anyway, this is me at the alterations place trying it on after a well spent $12 that made it fit me perfectly - including having the length taken up so that I didn't look 5 feet tall (hey, that 3 inches is important - 5'3 is short enough). Hey, I'm not doing half bad with this picture challenge so far. How very myspace-y of me. Love, B

Picture Challenge - Day 2.

Date night outfit & a new shirt. Found this as a steal on the clearance rack from the BCBG outlet on the way back from my Keys Trip with Jess. Not only was it 75% off but I had a coupon for an additional 20% off. Ballin'. I had to take two pictures so you I could show off the shoes, too. I LOVE these shoes. They're from the Cole Haan and Nike combo project so they're comfortable, even for all day. I'd love to have a closet full of them. : ]

Love,

B
