Friday Roundup: January 13
It’s been silent on the blog this week, mostly in part because my uncle Stephen passed away Monday night. He went in for what was to be a routine surgery for cancer and it didn’t go as planned. My aunt requested an autopsy and we’ll find out what really occurred for him to pass away. It’s just sad and tragic, he left behind my aunt, my two cousins and his two beloved dogs. To say the least, and I’m sure you’ll understand, I wasn’t into blogging this week or social media really.
So here we are with another Friday Roundup, I’ll be sharing a post next week on our salsa lesson we had earlier this week. That was a lot of fun, and the instructors were great! It’s nice for Curtis and I to feel comfortable dancing and trying something new together.
This weekend I’ll be going out browsing bridesmaids dresses for my one bridesmaid. I also need to figure out our wedding timeline and photos! Ugh anyone have tips? I’m so indecisive with this part of the process, I want enough time for photos in the daylight but still get married in twilight… HELP!
I’m so behind on recipes for the blog, I have them all written down, planned out but have yet to remake them and shoot for the blog. Maybe I’ll whip out a couple this weekend.
What are your plans? Who is going to watch that new HBO series The Young Pope? Looks intense and I wonder how the Vatican feels haha. I’m also excited for the new Victoria mini-series on PBS! Love myself some period drama.
