SO – being a new iPad lover – well, I mean, I always was a lover… but I finally stopped staring at them in the store and GOT one – here’s a new fun tool I came across from The Budget Savvy Bride.

The Ultimate Wedding Planner App for the iPad. Even better yet… it’s FREE! Woo Hoo! So, all you Techy Brides (and Apple Lovers in general) will love this.

Go, get it… now… have fun :)

I had a BLAST with all my sessions from today. A Bride, a Baby, and some Best Friends. CAN’T wait to post those…

BUT until then… I’m going to do my weekly iPhone Dump.

This past week (really since before my birthday in July) I’ve been fighting this sickness. It’s evolved from a sinus infection to an awful cough and I am DONE with it… I want it to go away… for. good. Well, the other day I was feeling pretty awful. I came home to this…

 I love that my husband makes me laugh when I don’t feel good.

If you don’t know what his drawing is… check out our text convos.

The above was the “introduction” of the whale. I saw it on a website and thought it was the funniest thing.

Just google iphone whale and you’ll fine all kinds of whales :)

 Yes, we’re weird, maybe even funny… but I love that it’s “us”

My husband and I picked out some couches while he was still in college. These would be “our” couches once May 23, 2009 came around. And, rightly so, I went with him to pick them out. We can’t leave these decisions solely to the men ladies!!

The ONE thing I did NOT like about the ones we chose, were the pillows… Ladies, you know what I’m talking about. I didn’t love the pattern, I mean, they weren’t THAT bad… just not my taste. like. at all. So, ever since then, I’ve always wanted new ones.

Derik said “but they MATCH the couch.” ummm… babe, not everything has to “MATCH“… it can also “GO“. There is a difference. Well, It turned into – we’ll get them when we get married… to – we’ll get them when we get a house. Mmhmm – it’s been TWO years!

So, I told Derik, I’m getting pillows… and he said ok. Wow.

After I got home, I looked at them on the couches… and I was excited. NEW pillows. You know what he said next, oh so sarcastically lovingly

“I’m soooo glad we got new pillows…”

Yeah, me too babe. Me too.

You might’ve seen my post on twitter last night.

But, this is what a night before a Wedding looks like…

haha! (shhh don’t tell Derik)

So, I thought I’d start a little something that I can do weekly… I love this quote and it has always reminded me to be in the moment. I may or may not always DO that – remember the stories and the moments – but I want to TRY and remember. I have SO many photos on my iPhone – in fact – right now I have well over 1100+ yikes! I just recently was able to get them on my computer and back them up. I honestly would be devastated if I lost all my photos on my iPhone. Seriously… there are a lot of memories there.

I really hope to keep this up because really… “The best camera is the One That’s with You…”
