Festa Italiana!

Jen and I enjoying some delicious frozen Bellinis!

Last weekend was Unico's annual Italian Festival in Zona Rosa. Every year it seems to get bigger and bigger with more things to see and do! This year, we took Casey and Jennifer; as they had never been. I think this quote sums up their experience..."Now I know what it feels like to be in New Jersey!"

I think they had fun... They said it was "people watching" at it's best!

"Cartoon" Lori and Jen :)

Nail Madness 2

Next week we are headed to Jamaica for our friends', Bryan and Ann's, wedding. Well, you can't go to the beach without a proper mani/pedi!

I mulled over tons of my Pinterest findings, finally settling on white with silver and gold glitter. The picture above is the inspiration from Pinterest, the bottom is my actual foot :)

We bought a house!!!

We are SO excited to announce that, as of Friday, we are officially HOMEOWNERS!! We purchased a beautiful house just off Ward Parkway on a very quiet cul-de-sac. We have spent many hours preparing for our big move on Saturday the 26th; including painting almost EVERY room of the house!

I think home ownership looks good on us! What do you think????

2 down, 5 to go!

Congrats to Sarah and Stephen! They tied the knot on Saturday night(the 2nd of SEVEN weddings Dennis and I will attend this year)! They had a beautiful ceremony and reception at the Hawthorne House in Parkville! They have been planning for this day for a little over a year from their home in Denver, but have recently moved to Boise for Stephen's job. Kudos to you both, that would be too much stress for me, but you all pulled it off amazingly!!! 

Congrats, Mr. and Mrs. Wortmann!!

This Saturday, our dear friends, Alli and Jeff tied the knot!! They have been dating for 11 YEARS (high school sweethearts)!! They had a lovely and fun filled ceremony and an even more exciting reception! Dennis and I drank like two little fishes, and danced the night away with all our friends. It was a great time! So happy for the both of them!!  

Den and I PRE reception. Yes, we are both wearing purple! We don't match, we GO... As I always say!

Trend Watch: Nail Madness!!

My new fav trend for nails?? The "Accent Nail"! You paint all your nails the same color with the exception of 1 or 2; the others are your accent nails! I've seen cheetah print, zebra, flowers, crystals... you name it! I went simple and opted for silver glitter! Might do something more funky next time.

Time for a change!

My new haircut!! Courtesy of the FABULOUS Beth Black at En Vogue Salon in Leawood. We cut almost 5 inches of hair off and added some caramel belliage highlights! I feel amazing! I was so ready for something new :)
