Friday Five!

Happy February! The weather this week has been a big ball of emotions (in all cases not very February-esque). Everything from thick fog, snow, monsoon like downpours accompanied by thunder and lightning, sun, freezing temps, AND days near 60 degrees (which was one big tease!) came out to play. I didn’t have to worry about wearing a scarf or tights one day, then the next I am scraping ice off my car. Oh Michigan… so unpredictable.

Anywho, enough about the weather. Max and I booked our photographer this week, another big “CHECK” off the wedding to-do list and we’re already looking forward to our May(ish) engagement photo shoot on Michigan State’s campus (where it all began nearly 5 years ago…). That, along with completing even more organizational projects (like this one mentioned here) resulted in a fairly successful week.

We had another Charity Jeans Day Friday, supporting this cause, to kick off the weekend (you know how I LOVE jeans day Friday!). Tomorrow Max and I have an entire day planned of roaming around the city, ducking into dive bars for some friendly (or not so friendly) games of pool, and potentially checking out a new microbrewery downtown.

Friday Forte: Disarm - Ben Rector (seriously OBSESSED with this song… I want it to be in my wedding video montage!)
