Movies at the Gardens

My friend, Tracie, invited me to the Myriad Gardens for "Movies on the Gardens" to see Grease. I had no idea the Gardens even did this...how fun!! They let you bring your own drinks, (including alcohol!!), chairs or blankets, and they show "oldie but goodie" movies on a huge screen. They even have a cute old-fashioned popcorn and cotton candy stand. I had good intentions of taking a picture of them, but I forgot. Dang it!! But I did manage to get a couple *blurry* pics on my phone.

They don't allow glass, so Tracie was prepared with a delicious, sweet red, box wine. Thanks girl!!

She even brought "red solo cups" :)

Here's a shot of the screen. It was such a good night to do this. I was a little worried because it was 110 degrees all day, but it had cooled down a bit and there was at least a breeze. And I haven't seen Grease in probably over 10 years!! I can't wait to go watch another movie. Maybe next time I can get David to go for a date night.

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!! I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained . :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used. The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

A Batman Wedding and a $9 Wedding Dress

I was on this blog today and she was talking about how women spend so much money on wedding dresses. It reminded me of my wedding and then I realized I've never blogged about it!!! It's already been a year and half and I still haven't even scrapbooked it!!! Where does the time go? Ok...to the dress. I knew exactly what I wanted. I wanted it to be short, satin, and a "pick-up" style dress. I looked around at David's Bridal and other stores but I just couldn't see spending more than $100 on my dress. (I've been married before and had the big, fancy wedding - and we see how well that worked out!!) So this time, I wanted a small wedding and didn't want to spend much. I walked into Ross one day looking for something else and decided to walk through the dresses to look for a dress for my sis, the MOH. It was like the clouds opened up and the angels were singing and the sun beamed down on this dress. You can't really tell fr...
