Out of Commission

So these past two weeks I have been out of commission! Sick with no voice, congestion, a headache, and hurt ribs from coughing so much. But, after Saturday I woke up and my fiance and his mother deemed it necessary that I go to the doctor. I am glad I went and I am now on medicine.

So, we had the overjoyedness of being engaged last week! I got my wedding binder and then took the last two weeks off because I was so tired from being sick I couldn't concentrate on anything wedding. I went out with some good friends Wednesday and did not have one moment where we weren't laughing! I LOVE catching up with old friends! I also got to visit another friend's new apartment which I am in LOVE with! Her rooms should be in magazines because she is such a wonderful decorator! She found these beautiful candles from pier one that I am in LOVE with and I made her promise to get me some when she goes back!



She was also the first one to give us a an engagement gift! Backstory on that one : I have an obsession with teapots. I attribute it to my grandma who has an array of teapots in her house. ((I hope that the collection is handed down to me because I LOVE it all!)) So, it started off with my boy giving me a teapot every Christmas, which has been a tradition for the last 3 years. Then, everyone found out I love teapots and started buying me them. I now have TONS of teapots and I have no room in my tiny space at my parent's house to display them all. So, with the teapot fascination came one with salt and pepper shakers because of lack of room. My boy's mom started with those to match the teapot he would get me every christmas. So, my friend knew about this addiction and got my boy and I chinese salt and pepper shakers! One is a fortune cookie with a fortune that says "happiness" and another is a chinese take out box that says "enjoy". My boy LOVES chinese food and I LOVE salt and pepper shakers so it's a win win!!



They are just adorable and so thoughtful! I am now falling in LOVE with pier one, and need these coasters ASAP!



Some other things are that I am going to my FIRST bridal expo this Sunday with my sister and mom! I am excited just to go and see what is out there and get prices for things. We have not set a date yet and probably won't for a couple months, but our imaginary time frame is May 2013, so we can go with that!

Other things I wanted to add are 3 new songs I have been listening to which I am OBSESSED with! I get crazy with songs and have to listen to them constantly until I get it out of my system! So here are those:

Florence + The Machine : "No Light, No Light" album : Ceremonials
Ambassadors : "Litost" album : Litost
Hunter Hayes : "Wanted" album : Hunter Hayes

A must listen for all songs! They are all so beautiful! Florence + The Machine is a powerful song while the other two are slower and softer.

Happy Thursday!!
