Wedding Wednesday: Giveaway from Passion & Love

Oh boy, do I have something fun for all of you today!!
Mike and I are doing pretty well with wedding planning; I feel like we're at the fun stuff now!  We've made all the stressful decisions of vendors and people and budgets, and now we get to choose fun things like rings and registries [both this weekend!!] and bridal party gifts!  I don't want to share too much of what Mike and I are giving our attendants [many of them read this blog, actually], but I do want to share with you one amazing Etsy shop with which I've been working: Passion and Love!

Lisa at Passion and Love makes amazing custom-designed hangers, wine charms, bridal party shirts, shoe stickers, and even Christmas ornaments!  Seriously, she is so talented.
Now, here's the fun part for you!  Passion and Love is sponsoring a fantastic giveaway for my fabulous readers.  This wonderful Bride and Groom set is a $49.99 value and can be personalized to fit you or your favorite couple.  Seriously, even if you aren't getting married, wouldn't this make a great bridal shower or wedding gift for a friend?

Thank you so much to Lisa, and I hope you will all check out her amazing shop!

Blogger Basket Swap Reveal

I just love Easter!  If you didn't see my weekend recap, you can check it out here.  In the spirit of Easter, I also participated in a fun Blogger swap hosted by Bekah and Aleshea!

I was paired with Jessica @ BeYOUtiful Beauty and Kat @ Kat Katastrophe.  They are both fantastic women, and you should definitely go and check out their blogs!

I received this wonderful package from Jessica:

post card from her hometown, fresh spring tealights, 2 nail polishes, Almay eye liner, and bubbles!!

I obviously went outside, painted my nails, and played with the bubbles [the purple bottle smells like grape!!] right after I got the mail!

I also sent an "Easter Basket" to Kat.  Obviously, I could not figure out how to send a real basket through the mail, so you can check out my attempt [more than the sneak peek below] at a cat-themed basket on her blog!

Jesus Doesn't Do Hangovers: Easter 2014

I hope you all had a beautiful and joyful Easter weekend!  As I sit here [Sunday night] chewing the ears off of a chocolate bunny and watching 24 with Mikey, I thought I would share a few photos of our wonderful holiday!

Friday - Mike and I went to see Muppets Most Wanted.  We had the theater completely to ourselves and we just loved Tina Fey in it!

Saturday - We had a new central vac installed [Yaaayyy adulthood and home ownership!], played some golf, and shot some hoops.  Then, we heard our neighbor screaming "Mike, Mike, Miiiiiiike" from next door, so we went over and I got accidental-drunk on Stellas and Coronas.  We came home and the second set of photos ensued... I made our friend make me brownies, tried to feed the cat brownie batter, and somehow ended up under our kitchen island.  #drunkmeg  Oh, and with regard to my post title, no one would drink with me, so I tried to convince them that no matter how much we drank, Jesus would make sure we weren't hung over for church in the morning: sadly, no one believed me, but hey, it worked for me!  No hangover Sunday morning!

Sunday - We went to church and spent the day with our parents and families.  My mom brought us Easter baskets, we made schnitzel [recipe this week!], and my mom brought baked stuffed shrimp and nine varieties of cupcakes - she's too much!

 Mike's church group friends!
