Top 5 Pinterest Pins

I have been more obsessed with Pinterest lately. I have been a pinning machine these past few days!
It's been a while since I did one of my Top 5 Pinterest Pins post, so I thought now would be an appropriate time. It was a struggle to narrow down my recent pins to just 5 favorites. They're all my favorite that's why I pin them!
Here goes nothing..

1. These pillows are to die for! They are gorgeous! I love the coral print with the white background. They are a great size too! These would add a great color pop to any room. This Etsy shop is full of all kinds of beautiful pillows. I love them all!

2. I tend to over stress about things quite often. I have always done it and I'm not sure why. I have a touch of anxiety at time too. It's mainly when I am going somewhere completely new and not knowing anybody there. It also happens when I have to speak in front of people (particularly my age and older). I found this this blog on Pinterest one day and I am obsessed with her! I added an icon on my homepage of her blog so I have easy access when I'm on my iPad or iPhone. Mary wrote this post about 20 Bible verses on anxiety and stress. I think they're perfect! I plan on writing them all down and hanging them throughout my house.

3. I don't know if you all know this about me, but I love couponing! It's hard to do in my small town because we only have a few places to shop but I still love to do it. Not much excites me more then seeing my price drop dramatically after I hand the cashier my coupons. Talk about an adrenaline rush! This pin is about how to make your own laundry detergent. I have never made my own before, but I'm no against it either. We could save a TON of money by simply making our own laundry detergent vs. buying expensive detergent. I'll let you know how it works out when I try it!

4. My husband and I want to puppy so bad! Unfortunately we can't get one because we live in a renter house and the rule is no pets. So for now Ben and I drool over puppy pictures together (pathetic right?). Ben would love to have a lab whereas I would like to have some kind of dog that does not shed hair to bad. We want whatever dog we get to be an inside dog so how much they shed is a big deal. Poodles are great about not shedding fur, I don't think they shed at all actually. Now, I do not want a poodle; they're not my favorite (unless is a teacup poodle). I found a easy solution for us right here on Pinterest. Labradoodles! They're perfect in my opinion. Ben gets the big playful lab he wants and I get the dog that doesn't shed ridicliously, see it's perfect! How can you not fall in love with this little guy???

5. Last and certainly not least, this haircut. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it.. Now, I have had shorter hair in the past but I grew it out for our wedding. Now that the wedding is over I knew I had to get rid of this long hair. This hairstyle was my inspiration. I knew I wanted it shorter in the back and longer in the front so I could still pull it back into a ponytail. Plus, it's just to cute when it's curled! This is form another fellow blogger who is new to me, but I can tell I love her blog already!

Here's a picture of my haircut too. It feels so much better this length! I think I'm going to maintain it like this.

The Best Day of My Life

We can finally mark #2  off my 101 in 1001 list! ( You can find my full list here). My best friend and I finally got married in May. We dated for 7 years, so we were beyond excited that the day finally came.

It was not a fairy tale day though. It literally POURED rain all morning! It was very nerve-wracking!
Unfortunately, I did not get a picture of the weather while I was getting my hair done.

Our wedding was outdoors at a local bible camp. I made the decision the week of the wedding that we were going to have the ceremony outside on the BEAUTIFUL deck. The reception was inside the chapel at the camp. Since I made my final decision there was no turning back, rain or shine.

The original plan was that all my bridesmaids and myself were going to wear our cowboy (cowgirl??) boots during the wedding. We decided while we were getting our hair done that we were going to bring our rain boots too and if it did not stop raining that was plan B. We all also brought umbrellas too, just in case.

Luckily it did stop raining about 15 minutes before the ceremony and the sun actually came out. I guess it was good luck rain! The rain did bring cooler weather though. Who knew I would be freezing in May?? I almost wore a sweater down the isle!

I'd like to share a few pictures fro our wedding, I hope you enjoy!

 

My dress was absolutely perfect! It was literally the first dress I tried on. The sash made it perfect!

 



 

Like I said, it rained all morning. The bottom of my dress got a little dirty

(don't worry it all washed out).

 

You can't go wrong with boots and pearls.

 

Our guest book table was on a big cable spool. I made the fans thinking it would be warmer weather, but thanks to the rain it was just to cold.

We also made the programs. I LOVE how they turned out, but I'm not going to lie they were very frustrating to make. The glue was a nightmare!

 



 

To get to our ceremony sight our guests had to walk a little rocky path,

so this was at the top of the path.

 

We decided to do one cake instead of us both having our own cakes.

We had cupcakes for our guests, so the cake was only for the bride and groom.

 

Our sand ceremony sat on two barrels with a beautiful lace tablecloth draped over the top.

 

The isle was lined on both sides with hanging mason jars with baby's breath.

 

Our family and friends blew bubbles during our grand exit.

 

Isn't this venue just stunning?

 

 

 

We honestly had the best wedding party...EVER!

 

If this isn't happiness I don't know what is.

 

This is our favorite wedding picture.

 

The bridal party had matching shirts with our initials on the pockets.

 

I wanted the guys to go with the no coat look. I originally thought they would fold their sleeves up since the weather is typically warm in May. Since it was cold our wedding day, they decided to keep their sleeves down. I think it still looked great!
