Birthday Cake

Hey everyone! Hope you guys are doing well! I've been really busy trying to juggle school, work, and well, more work. Two Fridays ago was my birthday! It was absolutely fantastic. On Friday I had a nice lunch with the girls and at night I had my family party with my best friend, Shardi, her fiance, and my boyfriend. It was wonderful! Friday night, Ben told me to pack a bag because we were going somewhere for Saturday and Sunday. Creepy, right?! Hah only kidding! He took me to Indianapolis in the morning, which is about a 2 hour drive from home. We went shopping and walked around the city, and he told me we were going to P.F. Changs for dinner! My favorite! To my surprise, six of my friends showed up! All at different times too, so naturally I cried with joy multiple times. It was a great and yummy dinner, and I was so happy to have everyone there. Ben also surprised me with a necklace. It really was the best birthday ever :) I didn't have a cake for my birthday, because I requested turtle brownies, but I found these really cute cakes online! Take a look!

The Blushing Bride!

Hey everyone! Today I wanted to share with you my best friend of FOREVER's blog! Shardi and I have been attached at the hip since high school. People even stopped referring to us as two separate people, combined our names, and we became one, Rashard. Ha! This is Shardi and I in High School. Now we both have brown hair!

Shardi is getting married to Brandt in September of this year and she has chosen me to be her Maid of Honor! I'm so excited! Without Shardi, I would not have this blog. She was the one who inspired me to start one, and she got me all set up with my very own blog :) Shardi has her own AWESOME wedding blog, which you must check out! She has all of the latest and best wedding inspirations and ideas. Below is a recent inspiration board she did for Valentines Day. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! Even if you aren't getting married anytime soon, you can find ideas for your friends and inspiration for outside things! Show her some love and let me know what you think!

Super Bowl Football Food

Hey everyone! I'm sorry I haven't been blogging much lately, I've been busy! Right now I am in Cincinnati visiting my cousin Laura, her husband Tony, and little baby Wendy! Laura, Wendy, and I are having a wonderful day together! As most of you know, Sunday is the Superbowl! And it's in my home state! Even though the Colts didn't make it, it will still be a fun show! I'm excited for the commercials and the half time show, but mostly....the FOOD! Superbowl food is the best! It is usually a variety of appetizers and snacks. I like to make the foods festive and fun too! I picked a bunch of snacks in the shape of footballs for you all to make! Pick your favorite and let me know what you think!
