What’s better than large polka dots? Nothing, I tell you, nothing.  
And surprisingly, I didn’t even spill anything on this dress all night (cue audience cheer here).

Also, who was able to snag some 3.1 Phillip Lim bags for Target? I woke up at 10:00 am yesterday panicking that everything would be sold out, but no worries, literally EVERYTHING was still in stock.  I guess it pays off to live in Kentucky. Phew.

  16. Nikki says:

    Love that dress! It looks great on you. I was at Target bright and early, with 6 others, waiting for the doors to open. I totally could have gotten there later and been fine, but I panicked!

    I was at the Target at 12 noon and they still had plenty. I guess Missouri and Kentucky are the places to be. 🙂

10/27/18 Mr. & Mrs. White

There’s not a day that goes by when I don’t feel so blessed to be Jordan’s wife. He is my everything. These photos and video are the sweetest reminder of our love for one another. So, grab a cup of coffee, pull up a seat, and try not to bawl your eyes out (because I know we did). Every time we look through our photos and watch our video, we cry the happiest tears.

The Proposal

It’s crazy what can happen in a year. I met the love of my life and the rest is history. I was having a hard time ending this post, because frankly, I think I could talk about that evening forever. Then I realized that this post doesn’t have an ending, but instead, a beginning. Thank you so much for all of the love, excitement, and gratitude.

Dark Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

One of my favorite things to do in the fall is bake my dark chocolate chip pumpkin bread! I’ve made it *so* many times for me, J, and friends & family. It’s moist, decadent, and super easy to make! It also makes for a great DIY housewarming gift.
