All I wanna do is hold you close and steal a little more time
Is that such a crime?
----------------------------------
Day 123.  Ryne and I went to Bloooooomington today (one of my favorite places on the planet).  We tried somewhere new, Irish Lion, and then went to Sports for Long Islands and pepperoni breadsticks.  It amazes me how much that place changes every time I visit.  I swear they're constantly building or demolishing something.

Music is my beach house, music is my hometown
Music is my king sized bed, music is where I meet my friends
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 122.  BK, Mom, Dad, Ryne and I all helped to make a little photo shoot with Bridget's cousins a cute little success.  They're all under 10, so attention spans were running short.  The pictures are going to be a gift for their mom. :o)

And so it goes, this soldier knows
The battle with the heart isn't easily won
But it can be won
------------------------------
Day 121.

Wednesday, July 28, 2010

Nobody knows you, nobody knows you anymore
Even when you show up everywhere
--------------------------------------------------------
Day 120.  Brugge + Crackers Comedy (a good show) = one great night.  Even running back to the pad in the rain didn't taint my happiness. :o)

Whisper to me, is this love?
---------------------------------------
Day 119.  Editing, editing, editing.  

Wedding Information

I have quite a few friends that are in the process of getting married.  They all ask me for tips and advice for vendors (or I choose to volunteer it - ha!).  I always try to remember all of the web addresses I've come across, and the list is growing a little too fast.  I've decided to add this in as an aspect of my blog, so it's easily accessible for the future.  Cierra already told me that she hopes we're still working in the same office when it's her turn to get married (so I can impart all of my wisdom to her).

General websites (with plenty of links branching off from there): 

Photographers:
If you want more info on any specific area, let me know.  I'm in full wedding research mode these days. :o)

A map is more unreal than where you've been
Or how you feel
----------------------------------
Day 118.  Cleaning, editing, chocolate cream pie.  Today was a Monday.

Sunday, July 25, 2010

I wanna celebrate and live my life
Saying a-yo, baby let's go
---------------------------------------

Day 117.  Ryne and I sweat it out today at the Indians game.  We were on the jumbo-tron, which was kind of funny to me (since I've never been to Victory Field before).  Had an aweeeesome dinner at TGI Friday's after the game, and I must say, 3 course meals are the way to go.  I also got some sun today, which is nice since I've pretty much lost my color from St. Lucia.  All I want now is a day at a pool, ahhh...relaxing.

Saturday, July 24, 2010

Feels so good, when you're doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
Keep your head up high
----------------------------------

Day 116.  Indiana = heat wave zone.  Let's just say I've been sweaty (huge understatement), and I'm always cold.  Between the engagement shoot yesterday afternoon, the drive in last night, and the wedding today, I was a hot mess.  Showers are an amazing de-stinkifying device.  I'm so happy I've got one.

Friday, July 23, 2010



And the voices rang like the angels sang, singing
A-yo-a-yo-a-yo-a
And we danced on into the night 
--------------------------------------------------
Day 115.  Nine of my lovely friends and I headed over to Steak N Shake for dinner, then over to Tibbs Drive In tonight!  We saw "Salt" together, then split up for our second feature.  Half of us saw "Grown Ups" and the other half saw "Despicable Me."  Sometime, it would be fun to either go a) in the fall or b) go in a convertible.  I drove the suburban for the first time (and didn't hit anything)!

Thursday, July 22, 2010


That's what I'm talking 'bout
We gonna have fun
You gonna see
-----------------------------
Day 114. I went to dinner on a double date tonight at Flatwater. We went later and were SO hungry, so we had to get the nachos. I also tried the flourless chocolate cake. That was something new for me. :o)

Wednesday, July 21, 2010


We can go to foreign lands
Your hand in my hand
-------------------------------------
Day 113. I'm *finally* back to red nails. Oh, how I missed my favorite nail color. It's no "I'm Not Really A Waitress," but it'll do. :o)

Tuesday, July 20, 2010


I'd risk the fall just to know how it feels to fly
---------------------------------------------------------
Day 112. Lucy's Cosmo @ Scotty's Downtown. So good!

Monday, July 19, 2010

You could plan a pretty picnic
But you can't predict the weather, Ms. Jackson
--------------------------------------------------------------
Day 111. I love lasagna. I love lamp. :o)

Sunday, July 18, 2010

Talkin' true blue, out in the woods, down home, country girl
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 110. Morning photo shoots are pretty great. You've got time to shoot before it's super hot outside, and it only gets lighter! Plus, we have the whole day ahead of ourselves. The only drawback is getting up early! :oP

Saturday, July 17, 2010

All this time we were waiting for each other
All this time I was waiting for you
-----------------------------------------------
Day 109. Editing, editing, editing! However, before all of that started I got to have lunch at Bub's. The burgers are really, really good. It was interesting that it's in the Carmel Arts & Design District, since I've been wanting to check out that area. I didn't get to go shopping/window shopping, but at least I now know what it looks like!

Friday, July 16, 2010

Party in the city where the heat is on
--------------------------------------------------
Day 108. Tonight, Ryne & I had a game night at his condo. It was SO much fun! We played games with about 14 people. We had some food, some drinks, and a little bit of dancing. :)

Thursday, July 15, 2010

I don't wanna be the girl who laughs the loudest
Or the girl who never wants to be alone
---------------------------------------------------
Day 107. I had a fun dinner at steak n shake with some good high school friends tonight. It's crazy how much time has passed since we were all sitting in first period choir! On the way home from Greenwood, I saw a gorgeous sunset over the corn fields. It was purple that faded into hot pink and bright orange. It was kind of hot and hazy outside, so everything was softened. Then, when the sun had set, there were lightning bugs all over the place. Nights like this remind me why I love living in Indiana.

Wednesday, July 14, 2010

We've got movies on our list to see
Things to do just you and me
---------------------------------------------
Day 106. Making party playlists with my boy is awesome. Simple stuff = best date nights.

Tuesday, July 13, 2010

Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
------------------------------------------------------------
Day 105. I should invest in more pencil skirts, as they're pretty much my favorite thing to wear to work.

Monday, July 12, 2010

Have you met my good friend Maria
The craziest girl on the block
You'll know her the minute you see her
She's the one who is in an advanced state of shock
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 104. I like wearing this little black flower in my hair. It's pretty. Similar to these clips. I think it's funny how BK and I laugh with each other at least twice a week about the simplest things. Hope everyone had a great Monday!

Where you will lie on the rug
While I play with the dog
-----------------------------------
Day 103. I got to hang out at the ranch in Brownsburg today with my family (in and out while they were leading trail rides and training the horses). We hung out with the triplets and explored with them. They were so excited to go see the new baby goats, the horses, the miniature horses, the chickens, and the lake. They brought swimming gear and spent at least an hour on the beach of the lake. So cute and funny, but that's no surprise to anyone.

Saturday, July 10, 2010

You make me feel alive
------------------------------
Day 102. Today, Stephanie and I photographed the wedding of our friends, Jennie & Daniel. I had a lot of fun, considering we were working for 11-12 hours straight. It's fun when we can work, but work with friends.

Friday, July 9, 2010

If the sea should swallow up my house
I will turn my rooftop inside out and the wind will be wailing
But I will be sailing faster
----------------------------------------
Day 101. I saw "Toy Story 3" tonight in 3D. Totally awesome, and highly recommended by me.

Thursday, July 8, 2010

Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
-----------------------------
Day 100! WOO HOO! I made it to 100 days! We had an ice cream social today at work after an all staff meeting. That's an awesome way to win brownie points with your employees, by the way. Ice cream + blueberries, oreos, cool whip, peanuts, peanut butter M&Ms, and some cold hot fudge. So good!

Wednesday, July 7, 2010

Love me tender, love me dear
Tell me you are mine
-----------------------------
Day 99. Happy Birthday...to me! I had an awesome dinner with family and friends at Abuelo's. We were a little loud, but that just means we had great conversation with lots of laughter. Ryne and I watched "Valentine's Day" and he went to The Flying Cupcake and bought my favorite cupcake for me. He's pretty much the sweetest guy ever.

Tuesday, July 6, 2010

Smiling, dancing, everything is free
All you need is positivity
-------------------------------
Day 98. Mom, Dad, and I watched the triplets tonight. I can't believe they're 5 years old and heading into kindergarten this fall. They still crack me up with the things they say and the way they say them. Oh, to be a kid again, and all you have to think about is which toy to play with and which book to read.

Monday, July 5, 2010

You made me smile today
You spoke with many voices
We traveled miles today
Shared expressions voiceless
-----------------------------------
Day 97. I slept in today, and it was glorious. I rarely get to do that anymore!

Sunday, July 4, 2010

When you find your way back down, in one piece
Then I'll just be waiting here, right here
--------------------------------------------------------
Day 96. Headed over to Rachel & David's new apartment in Fountain Square for a 4th of July shindig. We got to watch the fireworks from their rooftop terrace, which was great. I got to dive into my bottle of Oliver Sangria that I forgot to take with us the night before. I think I like this so much because I can put it on ice. Mmm, so good. R&D were sweet enough to ice their bottle of the same wine that they received for their wedding. Plenty for everyone! They let us use their giant balloon glasses, and that just made me feel uber cool. Hope everyone had a great 4th of July! Happy Birthday, America! Oh man, how could I forget to mention the salsa?! I made salsa, from scratch. That's nothing new, but the horrible pain that came from the jalapeno pepper juice seeping into 3 of my fingers was a new experience. I had to drive with an ice pack on my lap, it was that bad. Luckily, later that night I couldn't feel it anymore, haha. I love wine.

Saturday, July 3, 2010

In the day
In the night
Say it right
Say it all
You either got it
Or you don't
-----------------
Day 95. Headed out to Crawfordsville tonight for a par-tay. Best fireworks display I've seen in a long time. The house we were at had so much good food, and puppies galore! Ike was definitely the smallest, Moe & Izzy tied for 2nd, Stanley (the dog who literally swam in the pool for 2+ hours without stopping) in 3rd, and the champion of large dogs at the party was definitely Hank. He's practically a bear, and his head is as big as little Ike's whole body.

Friday, July 2, 2010

Don't you call this a regular jam
I'm gonna rock this land
-----------------------------------
Day 94. We went to this great little restaurant called Napolese tonight. Their pizza dough alone is so good. We got ours with fresh Italian sausage, fresh mozzarella, and red onions. I like trying out new restaurants. New to me or new to everyone, whichever.

Thursday, July 1, 2010

Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
------------------------------
Day 93. Banana ketchup sounds crazy, right? It's actually pretty good. Try it with french fries! That's what we did when we had our little St. Lucia trip reunion tonight.
