Speed Racer

Hey yall! I hope all the bankers, etc are enjoying a nice day off. I know I am. So let's get right down to business. Scott and I are now proud owners of beach cruisers. We were like the only people who live at the beach without cruisers. They are so cute. Of course we had to go with an Auburn theme.

I'm not a big fan of orange but I went along with the theme and was very pleased with our purchases. I even got a basket so we can bike to Trader Joe's if we wanted to. I would say we are becoming more "California" everyday.

In less than 2 weeks I will be home for the weekend. Most of my bridesmaids are coming in town for the bridal shower and I can't wait to see everyone!! My wonderful maid of honor has been doing some recon work for me on the bridesmaids dresses and I think I have it narrowed down to two. Go Susan! Also my PIC has been busy looking at flowers and centerpiece decor. Since I know nothing about flowers I needed an expert! Love them both!

Oh and we received our first gift in the mail last week. It was from one of my aunts who can't make the shower. It is going to be a guessing game everyday will there or won't there be something at the door. It will be fun!! :)

Another bit of very fun info, my cousin Christina is engaged! Yay! She is the sister of my cousin Jay who we stayed with in Phoenix. Now there are two Monk girls planning weddings! Watch out!

Until next time...

Save that date

I finally got it together and ordered our save the dates. It took forever for me to decide on my favorite and whether or not to have a picture of us. I will not give it away here you will have to wait and see.

I have also booked another flight home for my sister's college graduation and Kat and David's wedding. I hope I also get to attend a baby shower but we will see.

Hope everyone has a fantastic Valentine's day!

Love yall

The Dresser

Scott and I have FINALLY bought a dresser. I can't tell you how excited I am! They call it mission style, its very California. Originally Scott was supposed to use 2 of the drawers however in hopes to not see all my "shit" he relinquished them to me. And I am very grateful for that. Scott is a very organized/basic person and doesn't understand that girls need accessories and different types of clothing for all occasions. We also bought 2 night stands so now the bedroom is very close to completion. All we need now is to decorate but that comes after our bikes which is the next thing on the list.

I called it a month ago! I said the Packers were going to win the Super Bowl when they did a beating on the Falcons. And I was right! The odds were in my favor because there were only 4 teams left but still called it!

Scott is gone once again this week and I miss him like crazy already! He is so cute last Friday he caught an earlier flight home and surprised me. He also used our friends from across the street John and Sara as co-conspirators to think I was going to hangout with them until he got home. When I walked in the door from work there he was with wine and our favorite appetizer. LOVE him!

I can't wait to be home in less than a month!

Love yall!
