bad blogger award

Sorry for the really, really bad lack of blogging! This June was the busiest month of my life. I turned 30, had 3 wedding showers and have been back and forth between here, Western KY and Louisville. This week is the Junior League horse show but other than that I can actually breath before the wedding!!! Pics from wedding festivities to follow!

hello 30

Where did the last decade go? Friday I will say bye to my twenties. I have a huge weekend ahead with our engagement party and my bachelorette party. I also have a huge year ahead! I am so excited to enter my 30's with so many great things to look forward to. 

More posts ahead! I am off of work until August 10th!!

If you are in Lexington come to 1283 Scoville Road on Saturday May 30th. My friend Tatum and I are having our first ever yard sale. She is making room for baby Jake and Craig and I are consolidating all of our stuff.  We have lamps, glasses, dishes, rugs, clothes and more. I wish I could find someone with the initials KWM. I don't know what to do with all of my monogramed bags....

Last weekend we had our first shower. My parent's friends threw us the nicest party! The house had an awesome view of the river. We had the best time ever.

everyday dishes

I already posted about my fine china. I am equally excited about my everyday dishes! They are Waterford Grafton Street. I wanted something very simple!

I love how you can mix and match the different patterns. My favorite part... the bunnies on the salt and pepper and the serving pieces!

I found it all at Macy's. I love it!
