Wedding Bells and Dresses

   The wedding dress gods have spoken! My friend +Shawntee DesaRay Goff found her wedding  dress, Saturday October 18 and it couldn't be more perfect for her. Her family and I watched while a young woman was transformed into a princess with the help of the perfect dress and a sparkly veil. I couldn't help but think back to when I first met +Shawntee DesaRay Goff in an undergrad pysch class. At first I was insanely jealous of her gorgeous hair but with time I was able to look beyond the beautiful dark curls and see the equally beautiful woman within. This fabulous chick is a jeans and hoodie kind of gal who can rock a dress when asked. And yet when she stepped out in the first dress I was simply overcome by how utterly demure and elegant she looked. I cried like Kim Kardashian when she lost her $75,000 earring in the ocean.

   I am so thankful I was able to be a part of her special day. We saw +Shawntee DesaRay Goff in so many gorgeous gowns but the best was saved for last. I kept waiting for her to cry or have "the moment" but it took a very special dress with just enough sparkle and magic. I saw tears form in her eyes and I of course morphed back into Kim Kardashian. Right then it hit me that in a few short months she would be someone's wife and her last name would change. However, she will always be the sweet girl I met in psych class with the killer smile. Congratulations babe for finding The Dress and The Guy! Cheers!

Haters going to hate.

Fun at the Farmer's Market

   On our last day in San Antonio the happy couple took us to their favorite farmer's market. I had such a wonderful time perusing the food stalls and listening to the live music. I wanted to recreate the breakfast I had @Tommy's restaurant so I began my hunt for chorizo. My eye caught a sign that read "Praise the Lard" meat company and I knew I was in the right place. A blonde chick sold me 2 lbs. of local chorizo that I am going to scramble with eggs. The hippy in me found her zen at the market full of local produce and meat, fresh juice, and kind people. Y'all need to check this place out!

These colors are so vibrant.

This chick made my pork dreams come true.

And I found fresh baked bread.
