Hump Day Thoughts

Hello, howdy, hey, we're in for a beautiful day! (rhyme made completely by miss Stephanie. Yes, I am lame.) 

So this week is full of new things! Sent out my wedding invites, started a new job (which I LOVE), and participated in my first October festivities! 

First things first, wedding invites were awesome. I thought about spending $200 on pretty little invites that look gorgeous, but then I said to myself "I'm poor. It ain't happenin'!" So I went with a cheaper alternative. I went on this wonderful website called Shutterfly and started searching. To my disappointment there were only "Save the Dates" ........... This place didn't have wedding invitations! So I improvised. I chose a cute little save the date, changed around some of the wording, added some of our wonderful engagement pictures, and VOILA! Wedding invitations! This started out costing me close to $80 (still not a bad price, but I am a bargain shopper.....) I still thought there had to be a way to get these babies cheaper! So google came in handy. All I had to do was search shutterfly coupons and there they were! I got my Invitations for $43! Now if that's not smart shopping I don't know what is! Anyway, if your in the market for wedding invites, this might be for you! Take my advice; when wedding planning, don't think you have to have the most expensive things on the planet. Your day will still be beautiful, even if you got some of your decorations at Wal-Mart, or even the Dollar Store. :) 

Now to the new job. Let me just say.... This place is WONDERFUL! I have just started a new job at 
Diva Envy's Corner here in Lebanon! I have the coolest boss and the sweetest co-workers. Plus all the stuff in the store is AMAZING! I'm a purse addict, so this is like a little glimpse of Heaven. Really though, if you've never been in here, you definitely need to. It's the neatest little store! Plus, you'll see my little face :) 

This weekend was also some fun stuff! Thayer and I ventured with a couple of friends to the Haunted Hill! Let me tell ya, that was an experience! If you like chainsaws, clowns, and gross looking creatures screaming at you then this is your place. I, however, am a big old baby. I always get too scared and probably ruin the fun time for poor Thayer cause I'm always tugging on his arm and screaming. Plus that death grip I have when I'm in fear is probably not too comfortable. We had fun though. Good times with good friends and the man I love, it doesn't get much better! 

Well before I end this little diary of my week, I'll give you some scripture to think on! 

"Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, rejoice." Philippians 4:4 

As Christians, we're supposed to rejoice in the Lord. That can mean anything from singing your heart out until your neighbors ears bleed, to telling someone about the good works of Jesus Christ. See what you can do today to rejoice in the Lord. That's my challenge for you! God gave you this beautiful life, choose to live it for him. I promise, things will go a lot easier with him by your side. Have a blessed day and enjoy the lovely sunshine! 

P.S. It's HUMP DAY! WOOP WOOP!
