BHG love.

While waiting in line at Publix today I found a BHG magazine with 100 best ideas that I had to buy! With future home (currently an imaginary one) planning and registering, I love getting great decorating ideas! Below are a few of my favorites:

I absolutely love this living room! I love the combination of colors and patterns!

For some odd reason, I find myself drawn to blues, whrisp whites, tans and yellows. We'll see how everything turns out once we figure out where we will be living.

Christmas jewels.

Zach and I were blessed this Christmas with some great gifts. When family and friends asked us around Thanksgiving what we wanted for Christmas we directed them to our registry, since it contains items on it that we needed and/or wanted. We were blessed by family and got some amazing items!

Zach's parents got us our entire set of everyday dishes! We were so excited!

Mom and Dad got us our flatware! I never imagined being so excited over flatware!

 

Opening our flatware! 

Zach's aunt had drew my name for Christmas and got the one thing off the registry that I simply just wanted; Zach could have cared less about it. It was not a necessity but more a want that I figured we wouldn't get. BUT I am soooo excited to have it! For those of you who don't have one of these jewels and love a good Starbucks's frappuccino and get tired of the expense of Starbucks, well look no further!

So far, I have made only one recipe due to lack of ingredients. But I must say they are the real deal!

Now, we officially have the first pieces for our future home. Only a few more months to go!

 Christmas # 7

No. 10: For the past 6 years..

Six years ago, two high school students sat having their usual daily lunch with friends at school. During that lunch a boy got up the nerve to ask a girl out on a date that Saturday night. Little did they know that 6 years from then they would be 5 months away from saying I do...

Today marks 6 years since Zach and I went on our very first date. It feels as though its been forever ago, to think that we were just Junior/Senior in high school then. Now we've moved away to Auburn, graduated from Auburn, started careers and are in the midst of planning a wedding. I am blessed to have had 6 wonderful years to share with Zach and am particularly excited for a lifetime more.

How shall we celebrate this occasion you ask? Well, with a Christmas get together followed by an SEC Championship Game of course! Auburn is playing and these two alums can't think of a better way to spend this day than cheering on our Alma mater to victory and then a subsequent trip to the national championship. Come on Auburn, don't let me down now! WAR EAGLE!
