I rode a camel...

Oh hey there...yes its me, and yes I stink big time at this blogging thing most of the time...whoops! Time for a life update, I suppose so here goes. First of all the Brown Palace wedding was magnificent, couldn't have been anymore perfect if you ask me. Mr Man and myself had a great time and I'm pretty sure we made that open bar of the brides well worth the money...whoops. Since then I have been beyond busy just bustling around town and trying to get some things accomplished before the summers end. Some of these activities include the Renaissance Festival, yup we went, soaking up every minute of Mr. Man being in town, some pool days, Lots of Rockies games and of course the Tim McGraw and Lady Antebellum concert this last Saturday. I swear I keep telling myself that once I reach a certain date things will calm down, however, there is no end in sight. Seeing as it has been so long since I have blogged I will update you with pictures of the past few weekends and fill you in as to why the name of this post is I rode a camel, its a good one.

Anywho, this past weekend was filled with tons of fun and sun. Mr Man's parents and grandparents were in town to visit and they wanted to meet me...gulp! Turns out there was no need to panic and we all had a blast. We attended the Rockies game on Friday night where the Rox broke a MLB record for the most consecutive hits in a inning crushing the cubs a whopping 17 - 2. Yeah we rocked their socks off. Saturday was filled with errands and then the amazing concert that was Tim McGraw and Lady A. Ummm, holy AMAZING!!! Loved every minute of it!! Sunday it was off to the last game of the Rox vs. Cubs series with all of Mr. Man's family. I was burned to a crisp and the Rockies pulled out another fantastic win, sweeping the Cubbies! So all in all, a fabulous weekend spent with great friends and many great memories. Unfortuantely due to the BF's parents being in town I was unable to attend a good friends bridal shower that W threw for her, but I heard it was magnificent and I can't wait for the Beaver Creek wedding in 2 weeks...woah two weeks!!! Awesome! Now onto the picture slide show of the last couple of weeks of my life, prepare yourself!

Another wedding the weekend prior, high school friends!

Beautiful girls at the cocktail hour...is her dress not amazing?

Some of the girls and the tea.

Mr. Man and myself and the wedding

Now onto the more pressing matter of the camel but first a little bit more fun!

Face painting anyone?


Clearly I have never seen anythign soo amazing!

Wouldn't be complete without a pirate picture!

And finally at the Renaissance Festival you can ride a camel and clearly I cannot pass up that kind of opportunity...it was breathtaking!

Tea Time

So as mentioned previously I have another wedding to go to this weekend. This one is probably one of the larger more elaborate weddings I am going to attend this summer and it all starts TODAY!!! Thank goodness I only work half days on Friday's which allows me to be able to partake in the tea she is throwing for all of the people involved in the wedding. It will be held at the fabulous Brown Palace Hotel, which is a beautiful historic hotel right in the heart of the city. It is known for its great tea and it should be absolutely wonderful just to have a girls tea. How fun!! Shortly after that is the rehearsal dinner where I am sure to stuff my tummy to the brim of delicious wine and yummy pastas only to not be able to fit into my dress tomorrow...fingers crossed everyone. Then the big day. The grand daddy of them all, her wedding day!! I am really looking forward to this and promise to post pictures of everything! I am sooo excited. Not only that but Mr. Man is flying in for the weekend as well, double whammy. Its going to be a busy busy weekend and of course we are topping it off with a Rockies game on Sunday. BTW did anyone else see them sweep the Cardinals?? Haha, GO ROX!

Happy weekend ya'll!

Rain Rain Go AWAY!!

I had heard on the radio in my way into work yesterday that the weather was supposed to drastically shift from a comfortable high of 88 yesterday to 68 degrees today and rainy! Yuck, no thank you, I do no approve! So low and behold when my alarm went off at the ungodly hour of 5:45 this morning sure enough it was drizzling rain and miserable to try to get out of bed. I could have curled up with those two little snuggly kittens and gone right back to sleep. Quite honestly I could have stayed there all darn day today. Now you see, I love myself a good summer thunderstorm, however, when the sun does not peek out from behind those clouds all day long it gets to be a touch depressing. Picking up what I'm throwing down? Oh well, life goes on and so does the rain apparently. It is supposed to clear up by tomorrow morning, yipee!! I love summer and how much easier it is to get out of bed when the sun is out and already above 65 degrees when you get in your car. So here is to warmer, sunnier days tomorrow! Happy hump day ya'll!

The Wedding Itch

First of all please excuse my lack of attention to this pathetic little blog, I've been just a bit busy with 7 weddings this summer...oh my!! My first wedding of the season was actually in Nashvile and the same weekend as the bachelorette party in Phoenix so Iwas unable to attend. However, the pics of the bride were AMAZING!! I wish I could have gone :( I had a wedding of a good friend that I have known since 2nd grade get married on Friday at a really neat Tuscan Villa. More pictures to come. Anyway, the bachelorette party that weekend was sooo much fun. I swear to you that I can no longer look at Vegas bachelorette parties the same way. A nice relaxing weekend in sunny Scottsdale was awesome! I loved loved loved the great drinks that we were served everyday and not feeling like you have to go out to the typical Vegas hot spots. This party leads me into the next wedding which is this weekend. Its going to be at the gorgeous Brown Palace. It will be a weekend of great fun filled with a tea party, a great rehearsal dinner and a gorgeous ceremony at one of the grandest churches in downtown Denver. It will be quite an exciting weekend. I have also participated in a number of gorgeous showers and I will have to download pictures to show you all. I can't wait for the remainder of the summer which will be filled with more weddings, baseball games, bachelorette weekends, NEW ORLEANS, Beaver Creek and other fun little weekend trips. Is it so crazy to anyone else that the summer is half way over?? Man, time flies when you're having fun. I will post a few pics of the past couple of weeknds and I will have to upload more and actually continue to post (gasp) Happy short week everyone! Oh and get ready for a total picture overload...

Let the weekend begin!

Cutest idea EVER!

Kind of a crummy picture, but you get the idea.

Just a mini group shot with the beautiful bride and her cousin. SOOO FUN and I can't wait for this weekend's festivities!

Whoops...

And a whole heck of a lot of this! Sooo excited. Happy Hump Day everyone!

Just a little Friday Happy

Have a great weekend everyone!

Drama for your mama!

I may have been a tad over dramatic about the volleyball tournament last weekend especially considering my team WON!!! I know I'm still in shock myself. I actually only had to hit the ball a couple of times due to the fact that my coach kept the two best guys on either side of me so I wouldn't panic..phew. All in all, it was a great time! It is not yet 100% postive quite yet, however, the Denver office is thinking about sending my team (#1 duh) to the Houston volleyball tournament in a couple of months! All I have to say is those sweet little Houstonites better watch their backs, we are coming to town :)

On a totally different note I would have to say that this last weekend has been one of my favorite in a very long time! It was nothing special per say, although I did get to spend quite a chunck of time with the mister man, which you will will never hear me complain about. A little bit of pool time, some golf, good dinners, good movies, great weather. Does it get much better than that?? Didn't think so. This weekend is going to be kind of calm around the little apartment. W is out of town for a bachelorette party in Vegas that I decided to opt out of and instead am attending a different bacheorette here in Denver. The theme is pub golf, should be awesome. Other than that, a whole lotta nothing, and I am pretty darn pumped about that. I am just gearing up for the crazy weekends to come, filled with wedding celebrations, pool parties, bachelorette parties, showers, etc. Needless to say I will be taking in every ounce of free time I have this weekend and relax to the fullest extent possible. Quite honestly its not that hard for me to accomplish. Stay tuned for another overly dramatic post about my company softball league that started last night...now that is a riot!
