Elizabeth Haley has moved!

The time has come for Elizabeth Haley to end.

But not really.

I moved my blog to another location, and I'm so happy I did. I needed a new space so bad... I started blogging here at Elizabeth Haley the summer I graduated, and it's been a learning process. It's been a fun 2 years. So now I move my blog to another space that's fresh and new and that represents this new phase of my life.

I hope you join me!

Forgotten Disposable Cameras.

I don't know about you, but I forget that I have disposable cameras to use up all the time. It takes me months to use all 27 pictures! Does anyone know why there are 27 photos...why not 25? Or 30? Anyways.. here are a few photos from one of my (many) disposable cameras!

1. Me. (as of yesterday) 2. Blake and I are doing the "Real Marriage" study at church. We love it, but haven't been able to go in a few weeks! Hoping to get back into the habit of going weekly. 3. Calm mornings and a delicious breakfast are my favorite things. 4. Mr. Blake. 5 & 6. I started working at Red Velvet a few weeks ago. I love it there. 

I went with Blake's family to say goodbye to his cousin, Ashley, for 6 months while she goes to study in China! It was an extremely early morning (3:50 am!!), but it was worth it! Love you Ashley! 

Hope your Sunday is a great one! :)

I can't for the life of me figure out the spacing on these pictures, and I'm way too tired to mess it with it at the moment... so I apologize!!

Pure Magic.

Last week we went to St. Louis and got to see Beach House live! It was absolutely amazing. Like I mentioned on Instagram/Twitter ... I hate the word 'magic' (unless you're describing Disney or Harry Potter), but this concert was completely magical. I'm not joking. I wanted to cry like the whole time! Beach House is a very, very special band to me (and Blake), so this was a dream for me!

I'm sorry I've been MIA for a while. Things have been so crazy with family, school and work. But next week is finals week, so hopefully things will slow down soon!

ps... here are a few Beach House songs that will be used in our wedding! We're using Zebra for the ceremony (our parents/grandparents/all that) will be seated during this song. And our first dance is to Real Love. Sigh. This wedding just can't come soon enough!

Monday Morning.

My morning: lucky charms, honeymoon planning, Parks and Recreation. Last night, I completely figured out a potential itinerary for our trip to Disney World. We aren't going until next October, but we are trying to get all of this stuff figured out in the next few months so we don't have to worry about it while we are doing the majority of the wedding planning. Surprisingly enough, we have a lot of stuff planned out for the honeymoon. All that needs to be done is get a room booked and get restaurant reservations. Yay!

How's your Monday going so far? I got an unexpected day off, so I'm using it to browse Pinterest.. so productive! :)

Ps... I got my first spray tan. I had gotten so used to being pale for the past few years (I used to tan a lot in high school... no bueno, you guys!) - and I don't get the chance to 'lay out' in the sun or at a pool all that often. So.. I got a spray tan! It's seriously not that bad; I didn't turn out orange or some unnatural color, it wasn't awkward (okay, it was kind of sort of awkward). I felt gross for a while since you can't shower for 8 hours, and I felt really sticky - oh, and you can't wash your hands! That was gross. But it's not all bad! I've enjoyed my week of color and maybe I'll do it again soon. :)

Rainy Day

 

Today was a day dedicated to homework and watching girly movies. I'm so grateful Blake puts up with my movie choices (we watched The Proposal and Burlesque today. But, I have to say - I did turn on the Harry Potter marathon just for him for a bit). We went to Marshfield while my parents were out of town to wait on a package I have been expecting, so we took the day to get ahead on some homework since we will be in St. Louis for most of the coming week. (Beach House concert!)
Fun fact: I will only eat cashew chicken from Oriental Inn in Marshfield. Seriously. It's the best! I know that this style of cashew chicken originated in Springfield, but the cashew chicken around here is just plain nasty to me! Oriental Inn > Hong Kong Inn. Definitely.
Also: Blake and I are absolutely obsessed with Skrillex's remix of La Roux's In For The Kill. I hate to admit this (and he's gonna kill me for it!) but we are suckers for dubstep every now and then. We joke about how we are so gonna dance to this at our wedding... :)
