Carroll Wedding Weekend!

We finally have internet at the new house! Yipppeeee! That means I can get caught up on blogging and reading all of your blogs :)

And I just realized that I did these pictures backwards...apparently my brain forgot how blogger worked. My bad. I don't really want to go back and change it now, so just forgive me. Please?

And moving right along...

On June 11th, a couple of our besties got hitched! It was such a FUN weekend, and we just couldn't be happier for these two!

After primping the day away on Saturday, it was wedding time! Of course, I have no ceremony pictures, but I can assure you that it was gorgeous and so sweet. The reception was a blast! I think it's safe to say a good time was had by all.

I'll hush now and let the pictures do (most) of the talking...

I now realize that I never hit up the candy bar...what a shame.

Julie, can I have a redo??

Check out the beautiful centerpieces...

Is she not one of the prettiest brides you've ever seen?!

The bouquets around the cake were the bridesmaid flowers, and we each wore different colored shoes represented in the bouquets. SO cute with our platinum dresses! I'll post a picture of that when the professional ones come out.

Love my sweet parents.

My bestie since 5th grade...Anna Grace!

And since we're backwards...here are a few of us before rehearsal dinner...

And a picture of all of our goodies from Julie!

Such a great gift...we all LOVED our packages!

The bride and myself at the bridal luncheon...

Mr. & Mrs. Carroll~

I just know y'all have a lifetime of love and happiness ahead! We are so thankful for your friendship and so excited to share the future with you. I know we have a lot of good times ahead...the best is yet to be! Looking forward to your visit to the big T! We love y'all!

I'm loving that Jerrod & Julie's wedding weekend is just about HERE! Rob & I are so excited for them and so happy to be a part of the festivities!

Fun weekend ahead :)

I'm loving that these two lovebirds recently got engaged! They'll be in Temple with us, so of course I'm happy about that!

P.S. - We hooked these two up. Just sayin'! We're one for one on the matchmaking.

I'm loving this funny card I found on Pinterest.

The science nerd in me thinks it's AWESOME.

I'm loving these TOMS! Green is one of my favorites, and the crochet looks so cool for summertime! I'd go for the black ones too, though.

Babe...our anniversary is coming. Wink, wink.

I'm loving all these old pictures I've come across on my dad's computer!

We look like little babies! Ohhh the memories.

My high school graduation day.

My senior prom.

(Rob never went to any of my high school dances because he was in college. So not cool. For either of us ;) He always got dressed up to take pictures with me though! Sweetie.)

My junior winter formal.

Babies.

My sophomore year winter formal.

I love reminiscing! And of course, I love that man!

Have a HAPPY Wednesday, friends! XoXo.

The Saturday before we moved, my mom & her bestie made our "Saturday ritual" even more special by putting together a bag of some of my favorite things! We had lunch at my favorite place and did a little shopping, of course!

I'm going to miss every-Saturday lunches with these two! Just love 'em.

Tuesday was the big packing day! We picked up the truck bright and early and got after it. Will (Rob's twin) came over and helped us a TON. Couldn't have done it without him.

We packed, organized and had the thing loaded up in about 3 hours! We were so thankful to have friends and family there to give us a hand! Thank you, thank you helpers!

We spent the night at my parents' house on Tuesday night and headed out early Wednesday morning. Thank goodness we didn't have to load up and leave on the same day.

Here we go!

We arrived to a hot and humid Temple, TX! We are used to the heat, but the humidity will take a little adjusting to...we have lived in DRY west Texas, after all!

We unloaded what we could ourselves, then some of Rob's kids came over to help with the furniture after school. They were so great! I can already tell they're going to be so enjoyable to be around and for Rob to coach.

We unpacked boxes all day Wednesday, Thursday and finally finished up Friday! All of our furniture is in its place, all of the boxes are empty, but I have nothing on the walls just yet. Since we bought a new home, I want to make sure I get it right the first time ;)

On Friday evening my parents pulled in to town! We were happy to have some company in our home! My dad helped Rob mount the TV, put things away in the attic and do a few other jobs around the house on Saturday morning.

Then my brother & SIL arrived from San Antonio! We haven't ALL been together since their wedding, so it was fun to be with my family. We headed to Home Depot for some flowers and plants to add to our existing landscaping. My brother is a golf course superintendent, so he's kind of an expert on the subject! Handy, huh?! He & Nicole bought all of the supplies as a house-warming gift to us. So generous! THANK YOU so much!

My parents also got us some yard and home necessities as a house-warming! How spoiled are we?! We are definitely blessed to have the families we do.

We got busy planting once we got home!

The bushes were already there, so we just wanted to add some color to the beds! I can't wait to see everything in full bloom...it shouldn't be long now :)

It was so nice to have everyone come and stay with us...we had a blast! Looking forward to much more of that in the future.

Here are a few not very good pictures of our house.

I promise you more when I have the walls more complete! :)

My handsome hubby was such a good moving partner!

Wouldn't want to do it with anyone else. I love you Bobby!
