Mwah!

"Always remember this, A kiss will never miss.
And after many kisses, a Ms. becomes a Mrs.!"
- John Lennon


This saying holds true for me! :) There is something so precious, so tender, so lovely about a kiss! Something about them that gives you a warm and fuzzy, loved and cared for feeling!! It doesn't even have to be me being kissed!! I mean of course those are my favorite kind (From Aaron!) But even in movies there is something that touches my heart about a long awaited kiss with great chemistry behind it! Am I right?

Here are some of my favorite movie kisses!! They make me feel warm and fuzzy! Kisses are so special! I am so thankful that God created them!

If you can name the most correct movie answers first, I'll send you a little prize! :)








What are your favorite movie kisses?

Singing in the Rain!


The forecast this week is 10 straight days of rain..
and you know what? I'm not sad! Not even a little!

I mean sure... the entire month of march has probably had 2 sunny days and I could desperately use a sun tan but honestly... I love the rain!

I was never a "rain,rain, go away" kind of girl. I was the "Singing in the Rain" girl!

I have fond memories of coming home from school on a rainy day to the smell of chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven! I was a fan of indoor recess because that meant we got to gather in the multi-purpose room and watch Disney movies and the teachers would make popcorn!! I mean seriously maybe I was a weird kid but that SO beat running around and sweating! I love the rain!

so lets look on the bright side people!! Maybe finding the positive will make you like the rain a little more!! Here are my favorite things to do when its raining!! :
- Watch rainy day movies! Yes, in my house this is a genre.. (ex. Pride and Prejudice, Little Women, scary movies like the shining or the skeleton key, 101 Dalmatians, Beauty and the Beast)
- Fall asleep to sound of rain on the roof! (so relaxing!)
- Sit by the fire (Nothing says cozy like a fireplace)
- Eat soup! (Rainy days call for soup!)
- Do a puzzle (I forgot how fun those are!)
- Play cards (any game!)
- Make hot chocolate!
- Use the cute umbrella you forget you have! (Come on you know its fun!)
And my favorite
- Snuggle up with significant other (in my case Aaron)

Hope this put a new light on stormy days.. What are your favorite rainy day things?

Bridal Show and New Stuff!

A friend asked if I gave up my blog for lent so i decided that was probably a good hint that I don't post as much as I should.. :) So I'm posting an extra good blog to make up for my lack of blogs!

Anyways..

Yesterday my mom and I went to the Auburn Bridal Show. It wasn't a very big show but it was so fun!! My mom paid the $5 entry fee and I was told to sign in at the entry booth as the bride and enter to win a variety of prizes and get a big blue bag that tells the vendor "I'm the bride" and they fill it with fliers and swag!! Sweet right? I was so excited!! I got candy and samples and lip gloss and bath stuff!! Not to mention a congrats and a "What a lovely ring!" from every vendor! It was so much fun! We pretty much have our caterer and cake bakery picked and we don't even have a date in sight! Gosh! the samples were so yummy! I even won a gift basket! My mom and I were at the back of the building and the raffles were being given away at the entrance... SO when they called my name and announced "Molly Miller? going once...?" I took off running and knocked over a photographers sign! :) Don't worry I got there in time and won a basket filled with a bottle of wine, some fancy trail mix and truffles! (I'm keeping the truffles, my mom got the trail mix and I'm giving Aaron's mom the wine! win-win-win!) I would say it was a very successful outing and I now want to hit every bridal show in the area! :)

On to the New Stuff!!

I have discovered a few amazing things I just have to share!

First, Naiad Soaps and lip balms!


sold on Etsy or in bulk for wholesale on a different site (I love the product so much I'm considering selling some of the soaps and lip balms as a side thing at my station in the salon)

at the bridal show a travel agent selling honeymoon deals was giving brides bath fizzies and really cute lip balm, which I absolutely love! So i looked up the label on the back and everything the company sells has such cute packaging and I tell you.. the lip balm is amazing and the toasted coconut flavor is yummy (only $3.50 on Etsy and will last a long time)!! I want to order some more of it in the other fun flavors! But here are some of the favorite products I've seen and hope to order!!


So cute right??

Second, The TV show Chopped!!


I am completely addicted to this show! reruns run on weeknights and the new ones are on at 9 pm Sunday nights! so entertaining and I always get so anxious to hear what they are going to pull out of the secret ingredient baskets and see what they will have to incorporate into their dishes!! If you like Hells Kitchen... you will love this show!!
and lastly, FunkyChunky!!


This online company is amazing and i sent Aaron a box of the delicious peanut butter pretzels for our 2 year anniversary!! They mailed it to his college campus and everything!!! They had amazing customer service and I am now a customer for life!!

so this was going to be the end of my blog.. But in the middle of my writing about the bridal show.. I got a call from a travel agent that I had won the honeymoon gift basket I entered in for!! :) I just got back from picking it up!! I think I have a gift for winning stuff!!! Two gift baskets!!! Anyways this was actually the one basket I really wanted!! check it out!! p.s. - Thank you Aaron for not only making me the happiest woman on earth by giving me a life with you.. but thank you for making me a bride!! :)

Blog Makeover :)

What do you all think? I found a really fun website with all sorts of free backgrounds and little nik-naks for blogs : http://shabbyblogs.com. So i decided to give my blog a makeover!! :) Tell me what you think!! Also note.. that at the end of the blog you can check if you thought it was funny, interesting, or cool! I didn't choose the options it came like that.. but I thought it was a nice touch :)

In other news.. I am completely addicted to looking up wedding stuff! Anything.. Cakes, dresses, receptions, food, venues.. anything you can think of! We haven't even set a date.. and won't until we can afford to support ourselves but something in my feminine heart just adores dreaming about the day! Especially now that its a reality! :) I can't wait to find the perfect dress and know that's the one I'm meant to wear! I can't wait to taste wedding cakes and decide the yummiest flavor! I can't wait to walk down the aisle and see the look on my best friend and man of my dreams face! But even more than these things I dream about and look forward to.. I mostly look forward to spending the rest of my life with my best friend :)

I know everyone who reads this is already married but.. seriously.. How awesome is it that you get to wake up next to the person you love every morning? I informed Aaron the other night on the phone.. "I even look forward to sharing tooth paste with you! Just think.. we will be using the same tooth paste! Every morning and night! Isn't that awesome? And we use the same face wash so we can just buy one and share it! You and me! Together!" It's the little things people! :)

Anyways i feel this post needs pictures so here are a few of my favorite "wedding things" pictures I have saved to a special file on the computer! Any thoughts?
