Happy Halloween!

My mom came home and surprised me with an incredible cupcake book, so on Friday night my best pal Ashley and I picked out adorable Owl cakes and decided to try our hand at baking... This is how it went... :)

The Most Perfect Day

BethJoe-591

As mentioned in my previous post, Eric and I made the trip up to Pittsburgh to enjoy his sister's wedding last weekend. After the past week of rainy cold weather, the sky finally took a turn for the beautiful and allowed Beth and Joe to have the most gorgeous wedding I have ever been to. The entire time we were visiting, Beth was completely calm and cool about her big day. Many of the decorations and centerpieces were DIY. I even got the honor of doing the bride's makeup and one of her good friend did her hair and Joe's sister made their cake! How awesome! Her photographer Caitlin Thomas took absolutely gorgeous photos that I want to share with you...
