Shoes, veils and other important wedding accessories.

Eureka. I have found the perfect wedding shoes. They're ivory (matching my dress), they're tall (4 inches!), and they have a comfy platform. The ankle strap is removable in the event that the dancing gets out of hand and the strap becomes bothersome. The closed back prevents my dress from getting caught in the shoes. And most importantly, they're peep-toe and have an insanely cute bow. I ordered these beauts, officially named the Nina Electra, from Zappos.com because of their 365 day return policy and free shipping.

In other wedding news, my fiance's mom is going to get me the matching veil to my beautiful dress. My entire wedding outfit is basically complete before we've even booked a ceremony or reception site. Priorities, people.

A Bunch of Twenty-Somethings Go Sledding. Hilarity Ensues.

Friday afternoon brought a pile of fluffy, perfect snow to Northwest Arkansas. So, naturally, we decided to find a nice hill to go sledding upon. Since Arkansas isn't Minnesota, Walmart, Toys R Us, and every other retail store in Arkansas don't believe in carrying sleds, but luckily one of Evan's nice customers let us borrow one. Jen & Josh brought a blow-up mattress, and Evan's friends brought a knee board. We were the oldest people there without children. We're just that awesome.

Apparently, the smaller/lighter you are (ie, me), the faster you go on a sled. Especially when two grown men are pushing you with all of their might. I soared down the hill like a freaking rocket. Unfortunately, I always scream when these things happen. I scream on roller coasters. And there's absolutely no way to stifle it.

Anyway, the best part came when my sweet, caring fiance pushed me straight toward the huge snow ramp they fashioned. Right before I hit it I thought, "This can't end well." I hit the ramp, the knee board leaping into the air. I literally flew off the board, landed back on it, and then biffed it on concrete. My hat was thrown from my head, my wrist was scraped, and I lay flat on my stomach in the snow. It was amazing. Not just normal amazing, but Youtube amazing.

I know what you're thinking, and yes: I am now considering a career in bobsledding.
