Our weekend via Instagram

Here’s a snapshot of our weekend via my handy dandy IPhone cam

aka: don’t get too excited about the photography in this post

(FYI: this post was started in the Blogger App and finished once i got home. in my opinion, the Blogger App is fun…but will prob not be used too much by me to post!)

Jake performed the wedding for this most precious couple who met in our old college ministry at our previous church:

They are the kind of couple that just makes your heart so happy to see be joined as one!!!

the wedding took place as this super hip place in a super hip city:

and since “hip” isn’t the first word i would use to describe myself, i had to call in some troops to help me pack for this wedding. i took these following pics to send to my sis in law. she’s the stylist in the fam, and this FL girl just couldn’t for the life of me figure out what to wear to such a hip wedding…especially when it was supposed to be freezing outside.

i settled on the tank and high waisted skirt with a peacoat and wrap:

but it didn’t much matter, because we danced so hard, that i was wanting to shed all my winter wear as quick as possible! in fact, i kid you not….i actually pulled a muscle in my arm while dancing and went to bed in a fair amount of pain. i’m pretty sure i received my injury during Katy Perry’s “Firework” cause that’s just one of those songs that you can’t help but to bust a serious move as soon as you hear it!

everytime i go to a big, bustling city, i am quickly reminded how much i enjoy visiting, but how i am simply not a big city kind of girl. this was the traffic at midnight last night…MIDNIGHT people!!! when do you ever go to bed, urbanites???!!!

but….there are many plus sides to a big city…such as fun stores that i don’t have at home!

i wanted to buy this frosting mix simply because the box was just so darn cute!

however, i was not in need of frosting mix, so i decided to pass them up this time around. but it was not difficult to find some things that i just couldn’t leave without!!

(whole wheat gnocchi, letter shaped cinnamon cookies, mango butter, trail mix, peanut butter filled pretzels, and some candy cane tea, to name a few!)

and of course i had to hit up IKEA…cause i can’t ever let that opportunity pass me by:

(you’ll be seeing those frames reappear in the near future…i have some fun plans for them!)

i don’t really get to enjoy Starbucks on a regular basis, so this was really a roadtrip treat:

(yummy oatmeal and a green tea latte)

and in the spirit of Halloween tomorrow, here’s another sneak peek at the crazies costumes. i think i stumped y’all with my earlier picture of all my supplies, so this should help out! guesses are welcome!

since i’ve been gone all weekend, i haven’t had a chance yet to try out some fun Halloween treats. i plan on whipping some up tomorrow before all the festivities tomorrow night.

in the meantime, you can check out this link to some posts from last year of some Halloween goodies!

if i have the time, i’ll come back tomorrow and share a new one with you that i think you just might like!

Happy Halloween Eve!
