Bad Bloggers...

...But we do have a reason.

We now have a wedding film business. And we are doing Apartment Life. And we both have full time jobs. (notice it is 1:06am as I write!)

So we are a little busy. :)

We are loving it though. Not to mention I get to do it all with my wonderful husband - how wonderful! You can see what we've been up to at candlelight-films.com or on our facebook page. It's a blast!

I'm not gonna lie, probably won't be posting again for quite awhile. But thought I'd let you know why! I'll leave you with a fun sneak peek of a recent wedding. Enjoy!

soooo excited!

This weekend one of my best friends is getting married! I'm so excited to be a part of her big day! :) Ashley was a bridesmaid in my wedding (2 years minus 1 day ago on her wedding day!) and we were roommates in LA. I love her and am SO excited for her and Casey!!!!! Congratulations you guys!!!

What is...

...the cutest thing you have ever seen at a bridal shower? I need some cool ideas! Games, decorations, favors, anything you have seen done that was really thoughtful, inventive or cool. My cousin is getting married and we are throwing her a family shower - and her family threw me one and just did so much really sweet stuff for me. (Think hand initialed, homemade iced cookies, hand tied favor boxes in our colors, a game involving a video of my soon-to-be husband, a cake from Stein's, amazing food...etc.) So, since I'm pretty sure my readership (if you can call it that) is 99% female, I thought I'd ask for suggestions.

Also, I need more followers!! If you read our blog, scroll down and click "Follow." Come on. I look like a nerd.

Happy Monday everybody. Just four more days until Friday. Haha.

A couple pics from the shower the Lilley's threw for me. I wish I had more on my computer right now...I need to get them from my mom.

upcoming posts

We are in Waco right now, about to go see SING! :) So there will be an upcoming post about that. Also, we are overdue for a post-Valentine's Day post so that's coming too. It was wonderful!

Left town right after my wonderful friend Michelle's bridal shower. It was so much fun! We are so excited for her and Cody, they are getting married in 6 weeks! Cody is such a great guy and I'm SO glad Michelle found someone so wonderful. We had fun celebrating them!

Anybody on twitter? I'm getting addicted.

I really need to fix up my blog. I'm not in the know about all the new stuff. I still just have my old links to blogs that I never update or add to. Help!

Happy Half

Clint and I celebrated our 6 month anniversary yesterday! It is really hard to believe that much time has gone by since our wedding. We think being married is the funnest thing ever!!! I'm so happy to be married to my handsome, hot, wonderful, sweet best friend. :) It's the best.

We celebrated in style with a trip to Cuba Libre for some appetizers and drinks, then to Hibiscus down the street for the most wonderful apple pie with lavendar scented vanilla bean ice cream (officially the best ice cream in the world) and coffee. 

Happy Half! :)

Memorial Day Weekend - Dennis and Shawna's Wedding

Hello!! Sorry for the long time between posts - we are not starting this out too well! But, we WILL be better about it. :)

This past weekend we went to Burnet (outside of Austin) for Clint's cousin Dennis's wedding. The wedding was at a lodge in the hill country and we stayed in a little cabin with clint's family. It was really fun to hang out with everyone, swim, and be the newlyweds at a fun wedding! :)


Here we are starting out on our roadtrip Friday night. It was a pretty long drive!






Us taking Clint's adorable niece and nephew Addison and Lawson (actually, 2nd cousins or something like that...) to the pool. They were lots of fun.




Here is Clint, Jared, Addison and I all ready for the black and white wedding. Addison was a flower girl and LOVED her dress (she kept telling me it was just like mine at my wedding:)).










We're silly.


















Rattlesnake point, where the ceremony was held.












My handsome husband and I at the wedding. :)












Lawson in his tux shirt at the wedding. :)












Dennis and Shawna Humble












Cake!












Clint's creepy cake face











Mmmmm cake













Us at the reception












The reception












Us back at the cabin after the wedding. (We got to sleep in the same bed!!! haha).






It was a lot of fun! Being married and being an actual part of the family was really cool. We also got to see Jared and Tabatha and hang out with Clint's parents and the rest of his extended family from different places which was really nice. Yay for weddings! :)






After the wedding and Clint working Monday, we relaxed on the hammocks in the courtyard of our apartment complex, it was fun! We listened to the sermon we missed Sunday from The Village, it was so nice outside and relaxing!







It's so pretty with the lights, too.







We have also taken our mountain bikes out to the Rowlett Creek Preserve twice now -- it's actually really fun. Haha. This morning we went and I went down some steep trails!! Well they aren't really that steep...but to me they were! Next time I'll take my camera and document my mad crazy biking skills.

Also...I don't know how to add the links to everyone else's blogs on the right of our blog. Help! :)

Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend! We also found an apartment in Carrollton (Keller Springs and the Tollway) that we are most likely moving into at the end of June!! Woo hoo!

Have a great day!

Lauren and Clint
