date night

even though mr. wonderful's life revolves around giant books containing various amounts of law mumbo jumbo...he decided to take a study break so we could have a date night!

it was a very classy and detailed oriented evening so get ready to be jealous!

first we went to pick up to-go orders at House of Pies (if you find yourself wondering what this is.....please take a day and go...your life will forever be changed!)


and that would be a slice of strawberry cheesecake for the hubby and a slice of carrot cake for me....now i know you are thinking, "wait it's called house of PIES", but have no fear they do have cake too!

next we stopped off at Redbox and rented the funniest movie of all time...

again if you haven't heard of this or seen it....please do! you will not regret it!

anyways that is the high sophisticated date night and it was one of the best ones yet...if i do say so myself!


Love always - Lindsey Nicole

ps - i know you are all (by all i mean the 2 people who are following me lol) wondering about how the wedding went in Corpus and i promise i will have pictures soon!

weekends...past and future

this past weekend i spent time doing things that are outside my box and surprise surprise I LOVED IT!

Saturday mr. wonderful and i spent the morning (even with freezing temperatures....52 degrees!) cementing fence posts, laying sod and digging trenches......court ordered community service - nope - habitat for humanity......aggie style!

i wish i could say i had pictures but those activities did NOT make for classy pictures :)

sunday - i attended one of the biggest conventions in the country.....the international quilt show! you can wake up now - it was actually very interesting! even better was the company who joined me - the most wonderful woman i know - my mom!

**my 21st birthday in vegas!

the quilts that we saw were more than just quilts - they were art.....check out a few

*speechless......

*can you tell i love dogs



i do have to skip to next weekend now because its another PACKED weekend because mr wonderful and i's 1st couple friends (awww cue cuteness) are finally getting married and we couldn't be more excited to stand with them on their special day!



so this week is full of craziness:
- preparing stinky face to spend the weekend with his grandma
- making our couple friends amazing wedding gift (that's another post!)
- cleaning out my car (i should win an award for this lol)
- figuring out what i am going to do with my crazy short hair at the wedding....eek!

anyways i will update y'all on all my craziness during the week and let you know how everything turns out!

A part of something big

Yesterday I was privileged to be a part of something BIG - and I mean BIG! My crazy co-worker, Tess, whom I love oh so much asked me to help her do something special.

You see, Tessie (as I like to call her) is getting hitched! (See their engagement pics and the HUGE ROCK at www.amodernsuburbaniteslife.blogspot.com) Now 1st things 1st, she needs a maid of honor and who better to ask then her older sister.......but how you ask?

This is how! A homemade personalized coloring page done by ME!


This makes more sense when I tell you that Tessie's sister has a 3-year-old angel who will be the coloring artist for this masterpiece :)

GOOD LUCK TESSIE!

Mid-20s Crisis

Everyone has heard of mid-life crisis...well sad to say I just had a mid-20s crisis.

So I sat down and thought about my options...fancy new sports car.....plastic surgery.....a new pet.....a closet full of new shoes.....buuut I might just have to dig through the couch cushions for any of those, so I went with something a little less pricey, but JUST as dramatic.

TA-DA! 8 inches later (get your mind out of the gutter folks)


Don't judge me on the picture quality...Mr. Wonderful wasn't home to run the photo shoot. I love my new haircut! I foresee a winter full of cute headbands all new hair dos :)


Yes that is my devil baby in the background.....I promise to show you A LOT better pictures of the stinkiest cutest man in my life real soon!
