Wedding bells were ringing in Nashville this past weekend (and you can pick your jaw up off of the floor, it wasn’t my holy matrimony ceremony but a celebration I was lucky to take part in).
In preparation for the big weekend shenanigans, Ted and I relaxed with our favorite wine Friday night.
After a bridal brunch on Saturday, the bridesmaids were treated to mani/pedis and this chick couldn’t have been more thrilled, as it’s been over 365 days since I had a pampering session in a salon.
I ended up going with a traditional French mani but added a little sparkle (gotta spruce it up!) in the top coat.
As I was waiting for my nails to dry, I found out my niece in Iowa eats like her Auntie CBXB.
While my nephew on the on the other hand, loves his face clean.
On Sunday, the bridesmaids donned our white, monogrammed (so Southern) button downs we received as gifts from the bride. Prancing around in my white shirt and Spanx, I felt like I was channeling Tom Cruise via his Risky Business days.
I also felt the need to steal a pink acoustic guitar that hung on the wall in our dressing room. It was way too cute not to touch.
After the happy couple said their “I dos,” friends gathered in the courtyard for cocktails and photos, where I tried to sneak into the background of every single snapshot.
During our girls pic, we were photo bombed by a master, who looks like he might be trying to take off in flight Superman style.
Upon my late return home last night, Teddy was less than impressed with the non-quality time I spent with him this weekend, so he decided to express his dismay vocally by singing (at the top of his tiny lungs) a meow song all night long. He apparently exhausted himself because this is how he looked when I left for work this morning.
I’m the one that looks like I’ve been up all night singing on this sunny Monday.
Go figure.

PoorSoul To Love The Old Movie Reference. So We Lost Another Pour Marriage…WhatIsThisWorldComingTo?
Ha! 🙂
WOW! Auto correct on my phone sucks! I am not even going to try to recreate my witty comment, it is lost to the world!
Oh no! I will wait for another post to read your witty, non auto corrected comment!
You just look so good with your hair tight up and your gorgeous dress ! You were lucking for the salon treatment and your nails were awesome, now you be back you have only to give your attention to (poor) Teddy, he will need it ..hahaha ! 🙂
Thank you! Yes, poor Teddy needs all of my manicured attention right now!
Hahaha ! 🙂
You are absolutely gorgeous!!! Shenanigans and all 😉
Thanks Girl – you’re so sweet (and might not be saying that if I posted shenanigan pics after the sun went down…!).
LOL!!!!! Now I want to see those. 😉
Congrats to your friend! Nice mani and bun!
The bun AND mani combination made me feel very sophisticated and classy. Which immediately made me uncomfortable. Hee hee.
Hahah you have a knack for photobombing. :’D And why WHY does your hair always look so gorgeous. You’re making my frizz freak out. It’s okay frizz, it’s okay, we’ll get there one day. :’)
Photo bombing is my passion, so I practice every single chance that arises! And as for my hair…thank you for the compliment! My “secret” is that my stick straight hair will not hold any kind of curl for more than three seconds, so it’s either a straight, long ‘do or up outta my face. Embrace the frizz!
Love the glitter to the french mani, what a fun idea and your niece..oh my cuteness!
I had to spruce the French up a little while keeping it classy on the nails for a wedding, ya dig? I seriously understand why aunts get a bad rap for wanting to pinch cheeks. It’s all I want to do to those little bebes!
I dig girl!!!
Teddy! Teddy! I’m in Nashville tonight! No really! But we are leaving tomorrow morning… Sending you purrs from the three of us.
My human says she likes your French mani with sparkles (she’s typing so I guess I have to let her comment a bit too…)
Texas! Next time you are in Nashville, please meow my way before your arrival. Are you enjoying your trip?
Safe travels to the three of you! Cheers – Ted and CBXB
Cutest kitty picture ever! Was the monogrammed white shirt just for lounging before the ceremony? Love the photo bombs!
Teddy thanks you for the compliment – he loves hearing all about himself. 🙂 The shirt was our ‘getting ready’ attire before the ceremony and they looked so cute on everyone. And photo bombing is my one area of expertise. I must keep it alive!
