Dress Shopping

I'm so happy to be finally sharing this good news...Chris and I are engaged!!!!!!! Okay, did I put enough exclamation points there? Seriously I'm so excited. It was something like a dream to see Chris down on one knee.  I remember being in shock at first when I said yes and then after a few minutes all the excitement set in. We were in Austin when he asked me and to start our engagement off right; we went down to the hotel bar to have a celebratory drink before heading off to prom. I had a diamond margarita...very fitting right? I actually liked that he asked me with just the two of us there rather than in front of family. We got to have the whole night and the day after to just be excited about the whole thing. Once we started telling family and friends all kinds of questions were coming from left and right about wedding details...and it got overwhelming to not have any of the answers. With that being said, the last few weeks have been spent in wedding planning mode because we are looking at getting married in about 7 months!! So last week, I went and picked out a dress :) 
As more details start to fall into place, I'll be sharing a few here.

Out in the City

Dress: Marshalls, Heels: Kimchi Blue, Purse: c/o Lulu's, Necklace: Diamente Jewelry
 The other day, I did a girls shopping trip with my sisters and mother. It felt nice to step out into the city for a change and walk from store to store. Life's been a bit busy lately and shopping around for pretty new things was a perfect way to get away from all the fuss. Oh and to top it all off, the night ended with Sprinkles cupcakes. Doesn't get much better than that.
Oh and I'm sharing some pretty exciting news tomorrow...just fyi.

Fruit Popsicles

 I seriously can't believe it took me this long to make these fruit popsicles. They are beyond easy to make and are the perfect treat to cool down on a hot afternoon. I have a huge sweet tooth and these were a great alternative to cure my cravings while trying to stay as healthy as possible. I've started saving these for a post workout snack. So refreshing and delicious...you have to give them a try.
popsicle molds, coconut water, pineapple juice, fruit 
 slice up fruit
throw fruit pieces in mold
fill up halfway with coconut water, fill up the rest with pineapple juice
freeze and enjoy
