14 weeks away...

sneak peek

We finally got our good friend and up-in-coming photographer, Ben Hurt, to take our engagement pictures yesterday at our favorite spot in the Goldcoast, Burleigh Beach! It is so beautiful there and we had such a good time shooting the photos! Ben did an AMAZING job! I can't wait to see them all finished! I'll post em' as soon as I get em'...until then, enjoy this one of David and I getting all smoochy ;)

Dear David

I fail to see your reasoning behind why we cannot get a dog. 

....

Okay, okay. I know we don't have a house with a nice backyard, and our apartment will not allow pets, 

but when I see something like this 

I just really want us to be doggy parents. 

love you madly music

Frank will definitely be in attendance at our wedding. 

Spoiler Alert(!!!)

We're dancing to one of his most beautiful 

and timeless songs for our first dance! 

I'm a little in love as well as inspired by the music in the notebook (not to mention the time era). 

Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Glenn Miller...you're going on our playlist fo sho!

Now, where do I get me a jazz band?!  

it's official!

{yayyy!}

go pick out a white dress

David and I are engaged!!!!

tear-jerkers

In the last week or so, we have watched three movies, in a row, that have had me bawling my eyes out by the end credits: 

Cast Away (with one of my fave actors, Tom Hanks).

This is the part where I completely lose it, every time. I can't even discuss it with David afterward because I start crying all over again. Why can't he just be with his wife!?

The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas. 

This was the first time I had ever seen this movie. It's about a little german boy who befriends a jewish boy, victim to the holocaust.  

It is such a great film. But if you ever see it, I'm warning you--you'll need tissues! 

Seven Pounds is so interesting and beautiful. I love movies about good people. 

So now that David and I have become a little depressed due to these tear-jerkers we keep watching, I think this weekend calls for some happier forms of entertainment!
