Saturday we attended Jackie and Will’s co-ed bridal shower at their Key Biscayne cabana. We were lucky enough to meet these two about a year ago now (?) and we couldn’t be happier for them both. They are a couple that truly knows what it is all about & those are a rarity nowadays. We had some piña coladas, bocaditos and then a flippin’ delicious paella. Best part was the laid back atmosphere. You could really tell that everyone was enjoying themselves and were full of love for the couple. It’s just contagious.  We wish you guys all the best and cannot wait for your wedding in Key West later this year!

Black Keys

I always said that if my hubs had a band, it would sound just like The Black Keys. Their blue-sy rock is something that the music industry has been missing lately – it’s just plain old fun rock and roll. And we were lucky enough to see them play The Fillmore Sunday night with some really great friends. Their show was absolutely amazing. They just brought it full throttle. Unfortunately, the crowd around us (seemingly only around us) was really young and really annoying. Made us have a few “I’m too old for this shit” moments, but we would quickly snap out of it (we’re cool, we’re hip!). Towards the end of the show, the poor hubs got a killer migraine causing us to have to jet out early, but overall the show was really awesome and I think what made it so great was how genuine vocalist/guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer/producer Patrick Carney were in their performance. Check ’em out if they roll into your neck of the woods!

Up next on the concert front?  Mute Math (one of my aboslute favorites) & 30 Seconds To Mars a week from today with some of my best girls! I can’t wait!

Weekend Highlights

Friday night we headed to Ian and Beau’s new apartment for their official housewarming. We had entirely too much fun with their dirty word magnets and were inundated with entirely too much beer. I tried my best to be on my best behavior though as the next morning was the autism walk in Broward.

Before’s & After’s

I promised all of you some fun before and after shots as we progressed on our new home and we’ve been moving along enough to finally share some with you! We still have so much to go, but are having fun with the process. Well, except for that pesky mortgage part – our first payment gets sent in tomorrow – ouch! 😉

Gorgeous new laminate flooring in Rustic Maple and real crown moldings. That’s right, they used to be foam. I’m just as confused as you are, no worries.

Weekend Highlights!

Hope you guys didn’t miss me too much!
I missed blogging terribly though – but it was in my best interest to take a break. This last semester is definitely trying to kill me, but I’m happy to report that I only have to survive 2 more weeks and I’ll be done with classes. Forever. Unless I change my mind about pursuing another field. Again. And that’s not going to happen. I hope. 😉

Anyways, on to my weekend!

We spent all of Saturday working on the house (as per usual), but then rewarded ourselves with the first of a long string of housewarming parties. Seems like all our friends are either moving out on their own or becoming homeowners and with it brings lots and lots of festivities. Elsie’s move to her new townhouse was no different! We had lots and lots of alcohol, I had lots and lots of deviled eggs (oh, my stomach was not happy) and most importantly, lots and lots of fun. I am reminded on a weekly basis how lucky I am to be surrounded by so many amazing people. I love all my friends. Not only are they there for all the fun times, but they are the first ones by my side during the not so fun times. I am truly blessed.

I hope Monday treats you all well and doesn’t give you too much of a headache.
Only a few more days until we can say hello to the weekend once more!

xoxo
