Thank Goodness It’s Friday! I don’t know about you, but I’ve been ready
for Friday since, well pretty much since Monday! Don’t get me wrong I love, love, love my job,
but I love my weekends more. Weekends
are a time to refresh and rejuvenate. A
time to relax and spend time doing nothing with my man. And of course, a time for fun nights with
fabulous friends.
Today I feel wholeheartedly happy. My day started off bright and EARLY with 5am
Sumit Yoga. Something about sweating my little
(ahem, large) tush off just completely refreshes me. Will and I even convinced his brother,
Daniel, to go and guess what, HE LOVED IT!
I half expected him to run for the hills as soon as he stepped foot into
the scalding hot room, but he was a trooper.
One of my best friends, Taylor, even made it and the only thing better
than doing yoga is doing it with your bf’s! Yoga was followed by a quick trip to
Caribou coffee with Will, where the small coffee that was paid for got upgraded to a medium, gotta love that! Work even
started off fabulous with a healthy breakfast provided by one of our
wholesalers! But, what makes this day incredibly
great is the fact that I FINALLY get to see two of my favorite people in this
world!! One of my best friends, who
unfortunately lives hours away from me, is coming down for the weekend with her
soon to be hubby. And I ADORE them both!
You see, Jordan & I met back in college at good ole’ UNK. And let me tell you, we have been through the
boys, the breakups, the makeups, the fights, and everything in between
together. We’re each other’s go to gals. We’re there for each other for a shoulder to
cry on, words of encouragement, or simply someone to laugh with {or at ;)!} Throughout all of those times, the times we
wanted to give up on men forever, we forced each other to keep going with a
smile upon our face, because somewhere out there God had our Prince Charming
just waiting for us to discover him, we were sure of it! A little over a year ago Jordan met hers and
a few months ago she said yes! I
was over-the-moon-happy for her when I received that phone call. Jay is one of the kindest, sweetest, smartest
men I know [other than Will of course!] and they are 100% perfect for each
other. However, I do wish their wedding was a
little sooner, only because I CANNOT WAIT for it!! I can’t wait to stand by their side and
witness them pledge themselves to each other forever, for better and for
worse. They are perfect and I know they
will be infinitely happy for the rest of their lives. I can’t wait for my favorite people to meet
my favorite man, and have an absolutely wonderful time together! I hope everyone has a splendid weekend ahead of them!XOXO

White
Enchilada Sauce:
- In a sauce pan, melt 3TB I Can't Believe Its Not Butter
- Stir in 3 TB what flour and cook 1 minute
- Add 2 cups FF, Low-sodium chicken broth and whisk until smooth
