Being a Bachelorette!

I have been on quite a few bachelorette parties but let me tell you something, when YOU are the bachelorette, it is WAY more fun! :-) For my long-anticipated bachelorette party a group of amazing gal pals and I spent the weekend in San Diego, AKA Sun Diego. It was a fun-filled weekend with great friends and hilarious memories. To my amazing ladies: thanks for an unbelievable time. I love you gals!

All dressed up to hit the town.

But before that, a little fun. Just what every gal needs - a pillowcase with her fella on it! Expect to see this and the infamous Snoopy pillow on your next camping trip with the Scheffel's. :-) Thanks Laura - I love it!

My girls! Danny, me and Kristen at dinner. Like my tiara? :-)

Question: How do you ride a mechanical bull when you are wearing a tight white dress?

Answer: Have a good friend like Jenn let you borrow her jeans.

Yee Haw!!

The next day: Cruising in Mission Beach

So fun!

The crew on cruising day.

The ambassador of Dizzy Bat: Cody. Love ya girl - thanks for bringing the fun!

The ocean at last. I love it here!

iPhone, You Phone

I, like the rest of America, have an iPhone. I heart the iPhone. One of my continuing favorite things to do with my iPhone is to take pictures. Often times I will forget that I took the picture and stumble upon the picture at a much later time. Turns out these pictures are an excellent way to provide an overview, however random, of life over the last 6 months. Here are a few of my favorites.

Double Strike during bowling league - Glad I documented the night I 'brought the heat' at bowling!

I call this masterpiece "Tailgating". This is the image that pops up when my dad calls on my phone. :-)

Forgot I took this one of my friend Cori doing snow angels in the parking lot in McCall. Both the picture and the fact that I forgot taking it explain the type of night we had!

My brother poses with the set list from The Swell Season concert. An amazing band and a really special night with my little bro.

 I snuck this pick of the band.

Time to Fiesta!?!?!?

Be Joyful, Be Present

Yes, it has been ages since I have posted on this blog. I honestly thought about giving it up but then it occurred to me that I could be missing out on an opportunity to keep record of a really fun and exciting time in my life. So bear with me, the next several posts are going to be 'catch up' posts.

I have a new internal mantra that runs through my head daily, "Be Joyful, Be Present". I can't lie, this wedding planning, moving in, future planning stuff is overwhelming. That said, I realize that is the only time in my life when I will have an experience like this. I don't plan on getting married again and Scot and I will never have this time of joining lives (and stuff) again. So in an effort to 'Be Joyful, Be Present', I am going to post all the fun stuff that has led up to where I am right now. 16 days till our wedding. Whoo Hoo!!!
