Groomsmen Invites

Evan is on the ball and actually sent his Groomsmen invites out this week and they have arrived with each of his 6 groomsmen and 2 ushers. I however am still slacking on sending out my invites to my bridesmaids...they are just taking much longer then I thought. Anyways I wanted to share with you what each guy received. Let me start by saying these were 100% Evan, I didn't make these for him but I thought they were so great I asked if I could share with you all and he agreed. I just love what he came up with and I hope all the guys do as well. The invite box:
As you can see they each received a box with bow tie card that had some wedding details and everyone's contact information on the back. Inside the box a cigar and shooter of whiskey. Here are some of the pictures they posted on social media after opening their gifts (the last names have been removed):
Hopefully seeing all these pictures will motivate me to mail mine out asap! Sorry ladies I swear I'm working on it ;)

My New Work Space- Phase One

A girl who will be working from home 50% needs a nice work space right? So I set out to try and create one. Last week I made a post of my inspiration and did my best to go from there. Naturally I hit a couple snags, the first a biggest being that they no longer sell the desk I wanted. Apparently Target just keeps it on their website to tease people like me.
Left to find a desk on a two day notice I did what any logical person would do and went to the craziest and most amazing place, IKEA. I spent no short of an hour in the desk section just staring at all of them trying to decide which I wanted, I guess I was pretty worried about making the wrong decision. I was struggling with the practicality vs. style dilemma trying to find a balance of both.Then I stumbled into the next section which was "build your own desk" and I was sold. You got to pick the size, legs and if you wanted to add drawers. I was able to create the perfectly combination of practicality with cute by choosing the 59" desk top, the victorian legs and the drawer set with file cabinet.


Of course it is still a work in progress but I am happy with what came together in just a couple days. Now I need some pictures for my frames, shocking I don't have any hard copy pictures on hand. Sorry for the picture quality the sun from the windows messed with every photo I tried to take.

First Day in my New World

Yesterday was my first day of my new job and the first day of my new journey in medical sales. It was a crazy and exhausting but I am very excited for all that is to come in the near future. For the rest of the week I have countless online classes to complete before I head out for my new hire orientation in Massachusetts next week, I may feel like I'm a student all over again. I cant wait to document all my upcoming travel with you all I have some cool places on the agenda for the next couple of months. Starting in MA then on to Chicago, Louisiana, Los Angeles and Omaha.

I can tell these next couple months will be a complete whirlwind, lots of travel, tons of trainings, tests and just trying to get the hang of my new position. On Friday I finally bought myself a desk, I am excited to share my office space tomorrow... that is if I can finally take some good pictures, dang you sun.
