Grateful | August 19, 2013.

I am Grateful.  

Had the best time celebrating the future Mrs. Nicol at the beach with a fantastic group of ladies (thanks in no small part to her awesome sister/maid-of-honor who planned the s*** out of it!).

Links Worth Sharing.

• Want to get a little crafty but don't know where to start?  The Sweetest Occasion has you covered with her DIY Essentials.
• I'm kind of obsessed with Besotted Blog's Pin-it-Forward idea.  I've actually used Pinterest (and I know others have done this for me!) to come up with gift ideas for friends and family members from what they've pinned, but this is taking it to a fun new level!
• What do you think about the marriage "name game?"  It's a very hard decision that I am personally still not sure on.  Weigh in on Across the Pond's post on the matter.
• Ashley Nicole Catherine's post on her experience Walking in the BlogHer Fashion Show was really uplifting and left me smiling.

Have a wonderful week.
