a birthday wish for KP

Is it really August 1st already?! This can only mean one thing (besides the fact that we’re on the latter half of summer and my rent is due):

It’s Katie’s Birthday!! I fortunately was able to spend the weekend with my friend, which makes for a pretty rad birthday present in my humble opinion. But in all seriousness, I’m just so happy that I got to spend the weekend with KP, doing awesome NY things, simply hanging out together.

I love this lady. She is pretty flippin’ sweet.

I wish you all things bright: happiness, laughter, love, and friendship. Today and all year long.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KP! XO.

Cheers!!

What a weekend!! The weather was hot (no complaints here!) and every single day was filled with good times and good friends. Moe looked incredible in white and the big day was an absolute blast. I was lucky to capture the weekend with my camera so here’s a sneak peak at the fun:

Congratulations, Maureen and Travis! Love and happiness to you always! ♥♥♥

Happy Wedding Day, M + T !

Today, one of my very oldest and very bestest friends is getting married. I’ll be standing next to her as a bridesmaid as she says her vows and becomes Mrs. Maureen Elizabeth Hannah Tufte. SO exciting!! This wedding is especially special because Travis is a Marine, and so there will be a sword arch detail and many of the men will be in their dress blues. It’s also special because Mo and I have known each other since we were in elementary school. We became super close in high school (we danced Ballet together, but didn’t go to the same school) and ended up at college together as well! I guess you could say our friendship was meant to be. I’m so very happy for Maureen on this day, that she’s found happiness, forever friendship, and love. She deserves it more than anyone.

Cheers to Maureen and Travis!! Now let’s party!!

Oo la la!!! Oh Happy Day is giving away a trip to Paris! C’est magnifique!

You should probably enter to win. Because you’d be crazy if you didn’t. I’ve had decent luck this year in the blog-giveaway scene. Could this be the icing on the cake?

I’ll be hoping and dreaming and “pretty, pretty pleasing” all the livelong day.
