Happy Friday! How was your week?
I've been in Yardley, PA since Sunday "watching" my little brother Patrick while my Dad was on a fishing trip with some friends. He got back late last night, just in time to get ready for Ashley and John's big engagement party tomorrow! I am so excited to celebrate these two lovebirds, see our extended family and friends, and of course my baby niece, Emma!
Although I've had so much fun getting some quality big sister / little brother time in this week - we've gone for runs, bike rides, out to dinner, out for frozen yogurt and I've driven him to school every day (lucky kid!) - I'm pretty anxious to get home on Sunday and see all the progress on the new house / hang out with my husband! Oh, and sleep in our king sized bed...oh how I've missed thee!
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! And please say an extra prayer to the weather Gods for Saturday! :) xoxo
Can't believe it was 5 years ago (tomorrow) that I graduated from here!

P.S. Happy Cinco de Mayo!
I hope you enjoy the warm weather this weekend! I know I will! xoxo
Our boat is going in the water this afternoon - and I haven't seen Nate this excited in a longggg time! (He says it feels like Christmas!) I bet you can guess what we'll be doing this weekend...!
Happy Friday and hope you have a wonderfully relaxing weekend!

Sorry, I couldn't resist! I am caught up in the Hunger Games hype just like the rest of 'em! (I "read" all 3 books between Christmas and New Years!) Who is going to see it tonight? This weekend? I'm hoping to go on Sunday because tonight I'm heading up to NYC straight after work!!! I'm so excited to hang out with my sister Ashley - tomorrow we're going to go shopping and visit baby Emma (oh, and Justin and Sara!). And tomorrow night is Kathryn's bachelorette extravaganza! Pretty awesome weekend if you ask me!
What are you up to?
May the odds ever be in your favor!
xoxo
It's Friday, we just closed on our new lot / house and I'm waiting for my sister, Emily, to get here to hang out (and celebrate)! Ahh, a wonderful start to the weekend...! What are you up to?
Have you seen Kony 2012? (It's had 50+ million Youtube and 64+ million Vimeo hits...since Monday! I think it's pretty thought provoking...and am amazed at the power of social networking!)

What are you doing this weekend? Tonight, Nate and I are going out to dinner with my dad and his parents at an adorable BYOB in Newtown called Oishi. My dad has never had sushi before but is very eager to try, so we're extra excited to be a part of his first official experience! (I love sushi, but I'm not very adventurous -- california and shrimp tempura are still my favs -- so I'm definitely counting on Nate to introduce my dad to a wide range of fun rolls, especially tuna!) Tomorrow, we are throwing Kathryn another bridal shower in New Jersey and I can't wait for the wedding festivities to continue!
This is what crazy looks like via text message...

Hi ya'll! Hope you're heading out of work shortly to begin some weekend fun! What are you up to? Tomorrow, I'm heading to Philadelphia for a baby shower honoring my sister-in-law, Sara's! (I'm so looking forward to a girlie afternoon and still can't believe I am going to be an aunt in less than 1 month!) Afterwards, I am meeting up with some of my favorite (phillly) JMU girls to play a little catch up! Anyways, have a lovely weekend and enjoy these links - see you next week! xoxo

Hi ya'll! Hope you didn't miss me too much yesterday! Sometimes work just gets in the way of my fun...! Anyways, I hope this post finds most of you on the brink of a nice, long three day weekend. I, unfortunately, do not have off on Monday so please enjoy your extra day for the both of us, ok? And check back next week for some exiting posts about my best friend's bridal shower! :)

I've been super busy at work this week researching e-commerce and social media strategies and just had to share the above photo. Totally made me laugh - how many of these do you guys use?
Anyways, enough about work...it's 6pm on a Friday and time for weekend fun! What are you doing? We are going through warm weather withdrawal and plan to check out The Water Club at the Borgata (in Atlantic City) for the day! I'm super excited to splash around in the pools, drink a fruity cocktail and maybe take a sauna! I'm not so excited about putting on a bathing suit! #DietStarts?
Anybody else dying to see this movie?!
Stay tuned on Monday for the final edition of the Craft of the Week Valentine's Day series! Sorry it's coming to you a little late! Like I said, works been busy!

Happy Friday, loves! I took the day off today to run some last minute errands and drive down to Washington, D.C. because tomorrow we're throwing my very best friend a bridal shower! I can't wait to spoil her with lots of love, laughter and of course, presents!!!
Anyone have exciting plans for the Super Bowl? More importantly, what's everyone eating??!

What are you up to this weekend, friends? We actually have nothing planned - no traveling, no parties, no house guests - just a good old fashioned Nate and Kait weekend in Ocean City! I think tomorrow we'll bundle up and spend the afternoon on the beach with some magazines...and maybe a bottle of white wine! I'd also love to sit down a pick out the pictures for our wedding album...and the songs for our wedding video. (I don't know why I have been such a procrastinator - we could have the finished products by now if we had done this 5 months ago!)
Anyways, a few fun links (and videos) from around the web:
This movie trailer makes me think of my mom <3 I can't wait to see it with my sisters (and my Dad - I know he'll want to come with!)

We're headed down to Baltimore / D.C. tomorrow to continue Nate's birthday celebration and check out the Baltimore Boat Show with his brother, Jake, and his wife, Casey. On Sunday, House Hunters is filming at one of the houses Nate built (and owns...but its for sale!) in Manayunk, PA! (More details on that next week!) Should be a busy but exciting one!
