<br />
As I'm sure you've figured out... We're Married!<br />
Actually yesterday was our 1 month anniversary. It feels likes yesterday. It was amazing and if you'd like to see more you can visit our AmAzING photographer's <a href="http://julietelizabethblog.com/?p=3613">blog</a>. We were also featured on <a href="http://www.oncewed.com/30206/wedding-blog/real-weddings/a-pink-vintage-wedding/">Once Wed</a> and our uber talented wedding planner has something else up her sleeve... fingers crossed.<br />
<br />
Anywho, to describe my feelings over the last ewww 6 months, I will just say it's been a ride.<br />
<br />

<br />
So much CHANGE, all for the good though. We're loving life and everything that's being thrown our way. Let's just say there's no end in sight...<br />
well maybe...<br />
in like 2 years.<br />
<br />
Mr.R has accepted a GREAT job with an AWESOME company and we will be heading to Vermont next week. We'll be moving every six months for the next 2 years. Which means I will be doing A LOT of styling, every six months to be exact, which excites me.<br />
<br />
I hope to document our journey here.<br />
<br />
It's very bittersweet to know that we are putting 12 hours between us and our family and friends, but we know that this is the opportunity of a lifetime and we've diving in head first.<br />

I thought about all the decisions I would be making, the fun I would have making them, and how beautiful it would be in the end. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But what I didn't think much about was the memories that would be made along the way. After all this is a journey. I never imagined the opportunities I would have through the wedding planning process or the ideas that would pop in to my brain.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">As many of you know, who have read this blog, my mom and I are BF's. We've always been close. Yes, we have the occasional mother-daughter spat but for the most part we see eye to eye. However, the thought of planning a wedding with your mother- your best friend, sounded kind of scary. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Every piece of advice I'd been given and everything I'd heard was the dreaded "Be prepared for the knock down drag out with your mom," a thought that quite honestly made me want to <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">RUN</span> very quickly to Vegas.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm here to debunk the myths girls, it can be done. It's possible to plan the wedding of your dreams and avoid severing the mother- daughter relationship. The conflict can be avoided. Yes, we're still roughly 3 months out, but I have to tell you, we've not once had the knock down drag out. I could NOT do this without her. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> When our vintage rental vendor ditched us and I totally panicked, became <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">BRIDEZILLA</span>, mom and Liz convinced me we could handle it; we'd scout out everything we were planning to rent and we'd buy it. S.I.M.P.L.E. YEAH RIGHT!! It would be ours to KEEP. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I could never have imagined how much fun mom and I would have junkin'. We've made many trips and found some <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">AMAZING</span> pieces. I can't wait to share pics. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Thanks mom for all that you've done to make this <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #d5a6bd;">EXACTLY</span></span> what I want and more fun than I could ever have imagined. I appreciate it more than you'll ever know. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

My purpose of leaving myself a little note was to jog my memory...( ya know even though I'm young and all I still have frequent lapses of memory... not quite sure what that's all about I just continue to pretend it's normal)<br /><br />Anywho, you can now see why I have to leave myself post-its...<br /><br />I left myself a note so that I would remember to write.<br /><br />Often during the day, things come up (in my mind that is) and I think, I need to write.<br /><br />I had one of those days on Tuesday, you know the ones where everything seems real peachy and then the next thing you know you're in a tailspin... well that happened, and little did I know that it would turn into one of those weeks.<br /><br />The crazy kind.<br /><br />You see, I've been a tad busy lately trying to pin down wedding details, being a good employee, getting this body into shape; and in doing all that, I've started pondering about what the next few months will hold and how drastically my life could change.<br /><br />I started thinking about what it is exactly I want out of life...<br /><br />this is a big questions ya know...<br /><br />that leads to other big questions<br /><br />the scary kind.<br /><br />And to be honest I haven't really put much thought into them. I'm the type of person that just goes with the flow, or at least I think I do, maybe I should ask Mr. R his opinion on that...<br /><br />I try to be happy with whatever life brings my way... not to say that I'm not a planner and driven<br /><br />but those big questions kept lingering and I started pondering about what really makes happy, what I love, what I could live with and what I could NOT live without. How (in a perfect world... which I know is not reality but a girl can dream right?!?!?) I would envision our life in 5+ years.<br /><br />So I'm asking......<br /><br />Give me your best LIFE advice.<br /><br />What did you do right?<br /><br />What do you wish you would have done differently? or better?<br /><br />How is it being a grown up?<br /><br />I'd kind of like to be a kid forever and let my parents take care of me....<br />LOVE YOU MOM :)<br /><br />If you could do it all over again would you change a thing?Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11392670944455089378noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6057747151980611996.post-35971582617132141822010-01-25T15:59:00.000-08:002010-01-25T16:14:16.573-08:00Most days...<div style="text-align: center;">Most days I long to sleep in...<br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/S14xXRuvEXI/AAAAAAAAAcY/wP3qpb_eg3Y/s1600-h/bed1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm in a funk.
<br />I can't find the right words to say
<br />I'm not feeling in the least bit creative
<br />I don't feel on top of my game
<br />I'm emotional
<br />I've got a lot going on
<br />I've got a lot on my mind
<br />I'm sad
<br />I'm happy
<br />I'm tired
<br />I'm overwhelmed
<br />I've got a TON of decisions to make
<br />I just need to clear my mind
<br />get some extra sleep
<br />and take-care of myself
<br />I'll be back rejuvenated after a weekend of shopping with the girls
<br />Until we meet again <3>Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11392670944455089378noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6057747151980611996.post-57034930145584432742009-11-29T18:44:00.000-08:002009-11-30T18:12:22.796-08:00Tinseltown<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SxR4kYQhQCI/AAAAAAAAAWk/QcKWYL7QNXw/s1600/christmas+1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SxR4kYQhQCI/AAAAAAAAAWk/QcKWYL7QNXw/s400/christmas+1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410081618761170978" border="0" /></a><br />I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving.<br /><br />I sure did.<br /><br />Ate way to much food, laughed a lot, and even relaxed.<br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SxR4juSWdbI/AAAAAAAAAWc/R6ZDdCg5r7g/s1600/christmas+4.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 298px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SxR4juSWdbI/AAAAAAAAAWc/R6ZDdCg5r7g/s400/christmas+4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410081607494563250" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">And now it's on to Christmas...<br />I've yet to buy a gift.<br />I'm working on it though.<br />No worries.<br />I'm basically a professional procrastinator.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SxR28b842BI/AAAAAAAAAWM/BN-jLb4rVh4/s1600/Christmas+2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SxR28b842BI/AAAAAAAAAWM/BN-jLb4rVh4/s400/Christmas+2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410079833046177810" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I don't do the whole Black Friday ordeal.<br /><div style="text-align: center;">To be honest its kind of scary.<br /><br />I would rather pay a couple extra dollars to NOT deal with the crowd.<br /><br />Did anyone take advantage of the sales today?<br />I'd love to hear what bargains you found.<br /><br /></div> </div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SxMyPa-XHvI/AAAAAAAAAV8/AFN458ALyHw/s1600/Christmas.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SxMyPa-XHvI/AAAAAAAAAV8/AFN458ALyHw/s400/Christmas.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409722817922408178" border="0" /></a><br />Help a girl out ;)</div><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" ><br /></span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >All photos taken at @home vintage general</span><br /></div>Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11392670944455089378noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6057747151980611996.post-70068544402857509302009-11-19T16:12:00.000-08:002009-11-19T16:58:02.145-08:00Thanksgiving In Your Mouth<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SwXmXAWIarI/AAAAAAAAAV0/wk7mx8KuuA0/s1600/leopolds.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_KLF4BMIcQhQ/SwXmXAWIarI/AAAAAAAAAV0/wk7mx8KuuA0/s400/leopolds.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405980210632354482" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;">I don't know about you but it seems Thanksgiving has crept up on me.
