Why you can't take us anywhere....

I love a wedding.  Give me an excuse to dress up and put on a pair of heels and I am happy as a clam.  Hubs and I got the chance to go to a "Black Tie" wedding this past weekend, and truly enjoyed ourselves.

Me and the hubs, circa beginning of dinner...

Joel and I think that we are Really Fun Wedding Guests.  Note that I said that WE think this.  Our poor friends probably would be mortified if they saw our behavior.  Sorry, Kelly and Dan.  Your wedding was beautiful, and we enjoyed ourselves immensely.  Particularly the individual ice sculptures...

Mmmm...yummy yummy ice sculpture!

Thank you, clown. 

   Anyhoo....after we "cleansed our palates" with the contents of said individual ice sculptures, we did what any mature, well-behaved adult would do:  we took shots out them.  I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is probably not what the bride had in mind when she came up with this idea.

                                                                                         

Don't try this at home: vodka shot + straw = fast lane to drunk town

All in all, we had a great time. We stayed at the party until almost midnight, which for a Sunday night was a pretty awesome accomplishment, particularly considering the fact that I spent the first part of the weekend pretending I still had the liver of my college booze hound days in the Kappa Delta sorority.

*Note to friends whose weddings Joel and I have yet to attend- we really do know how to behave. Seriously. We don't start fights, inappropriately grope anyone except for each other, and we always make friends with the strangers at our table. And we're really cute and fun on the dance floor, especially after taking vodka shots out of ice sculptures. :)

We're off to see the wizard...

Hello!  Welcome friends!  Out of boredom, lunacy, and the notion that I have entirely too much to say, I have ventured into the blogging world to "put it all out there", for lack of a better phrase.  I'm an unemployed girl, recently married, who is exploring life as a newlywed with entirely too much time on her hands.  I'll blog about life as a housewife, including my ventures into the realm of cooking and baking and cleaning (oh my!), and about the times when I actually get out of the house because hubby has decided to reward my good behavior with an outing (otherwise known as a Date Night, very important in newlywed life).  I might entertain you with little anecdotes that I learn about from my new friends, Kathie Lee and Hoda, or share a story about one of the interesting people that I meet at the grocery store.  It's going to get pretty crazy up in here, so slap on those ruby slippers (or Glitter Peep-Toe Louboutins) and skip along with me.
