my november blog goal

even if i have nothing new to say, no snarkastic bridal-shop bashes, no frantic to-do lists, my november blog goal is to take a picture of something in my life everyday and blog it. maybe it'll be people. maybe it'll be boring. maybe no one will care about it but me. but there it is. lets end october with a bang. here are a few of my favorite pictures i found on my computer. enjoy :)


my best cito, humoring me as always :)


handsome jesse and his baby girls


aunt donna starring in my favorite picture from the bahamas


brave pearce girls doing the puyallup


john mayer fans for life


the cutest ring bearer in the world

this made me laugh :)

At your worst, you are: anxious and high strung



You drink coffee when: anytime you're not sleeping



Your caffeine addiction level: high

wedding dresses.

well, today was stressful. wedding dress shopping. if you know me at all, you know i don't do well in crowds. apparently, this also goes for bridal shops. whether they be ginormous like david's bridal, or little teeny, they are both so stuffed with dresses that you can't walk through the aisles. and they both have annoying salesgirls who won't leave me alone. if i want your help, i'll ask for it. go away.

i tried on a couple dresses, most of them i couldnt even zip up because i have a rather large chest, if anyone hadn't noticed. slightly discouraging.

but james found some inexpensive and pretty dresses online... online at TARGET! oh shoot. i love target. if i didn't have jesse, i'd probably marry target. so i'm going to do some research and see what goes on with these dresses and go from there. and hopefully never set foot in a bridal store again. especially on a saturday.

until next time,
love & coffee,
megs

the day before you

I had all but given up
On finding the one that I could fall into
On the day before you
I was ready to settle for
Less than love and not much more
There was no such thing as a dream come true
Oh, but that was on the day before you

Now you're here and everything's changing
Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I will never have to go back to
The day before you

In your eyes I see forever
It makes me wish that my life never knew
The day before you
Oh, but Heaven knows those years without you
Were shapin' my heart for the day that I found you
You're the reason for all that I've been through
Then I'm thankful for the day before you

Now you're here and everything's changing
Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I will never have to go back to
The day before you

Was the last day that I ever lived alone
And I'm never goin' back
No, I'm never goin' back

Now you're here and everything's changing

Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I will never have to go back to
Yeah, I will never have to go back to
The day before you, the day before you
