In more ways than one

I told her from now on I’m calling her Coates-Kreeger, just ’cause.

And this is my obligatory post-wedding mirror photo, featuring my “I’m so glad they’re finally married after 7 years of dating!” face:

I need to make this again.

You can find the recipe for this delicious bird here. (Actually, the site is down right now. It’s the Lemon-Honey Chicken with Olives from Real Simple. Check it out sometime if you’re interested.)

Happy 100th Birthday to my favorite state! I couldn’t be prouder of the place where I live. Well, I guess if they hadn’t robbed entire people groups of their homes…that would have been better. But other than that!

Kevin and I dressed as Alfalfa and Darla (of Our Gang and Little Rascals fame) for Halloween. While I can only pass as Darla if I’m standing next to Alfalfa, doesn’t my boyfriend make the best Alfalfa?

I am. Terrible. From time to time I get like this. No posts for days. And what kind of blog is that? Not the kind I like to read, but I do appreciate those of you who stick around and check everyday just the same.

At least I’m not a terrible monster. (Wonderful book!)

Right now I am staying pretty busy (by my standards) with planning parties, throwing showers for a soon-to-be-old-and-married friend, going on road trips, and turning twenty-three (next Wednesday). I’m hosting a “personal shower” this Friday and let me tell you–that’s going to be fun! Pictures (the ones that wouldn’t put a funny knot in my stomach if my Granny were to see them) next week sometime.

Until then, I leave you with ME, very excited to see the Haygoods in Branson.
