Ruching Is a Girl's Best Friend (Forget the Diamonds!)

I'm still squeezing into my Frock! by Tracy Reese non-maternity dress, though this may have been the last time until munchkin arrives. All I have to say is, thank the heavens for some serious ruching! 

Last night we celebrated the civil wedding of our dear friends Sara and Remy (yet another wedding between a player & coach from my old soccer team, Trouble United). We're sadly missing their "real" wedding in Mexico, so at least we were able to toast them last night!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday weekend!

Summer Brights & Date Nights

Hello strangers! I know it has been a while since I've posted... I must admit I'm eating my words! I thought dressing cute & blogging while pregnant would be a breeze. The reality is that most mornings it's all I can do just to get to work, much less put together a blog-worthy ensemble. SO! There you have it. I hope you will be generous and overlook my white legs, my tired eyes, my wrinkled blouse, my messy hair. :) 

I was able to sneak in a date night with Aaron, and feeling sassy, I actually managed to wear some tall wedges during the whole date, no flip flops stashed in my purse. I'm happy to report, there were no mishaps, no twisted ankles. It's the small victories in life, isn't it?
