Barn door magic

Barn door magic happening in the Sanger household this beautiful Saturday! Can't wait to share the final project 

The Dress

My wedding dress was the first thing we picked out.... the week after I was engaged. I am not indecisive and happened to be in Charleston, SC and stopped in at Maddison Row.  I knew different features that I was looking for in a dress: Lace, illusion neckline, fitted. The first dress I tried on had all of the requirements.  Anna Maier is the designer of the dress.... which didn't mean much to me besides that she is a dress genius. I only tried on one other dress just for fun that day but knew I found the one. Only a few buttons kept coming undone but that just meant I was getting hugged- ALOT. I love this dress so so so so so much and it could not have been more perfect. Now I just have to warn Marc to not be alarmed if he ever comes home to me lounging around watching Netflix in this thing... it's too beautiful to only wear once ;)

My husband can jump....

Seriously... it's one of the reasons I married him and probably one of the reasons he married me because he'll need a nurse to help him when he needs a double knee replacement... the noises those things make gives me nightmares... :)

Crossroads- crossing the road to fitness or starbucks donuts?

I started Kayla Itsines 12 week workout program this week. My whole body is sore. I know it hurts from the workouts and partly from using the paint roller and scrapping SHIT off our wood floors from who knows how many years ago.  I have been at a crossroads with exercise since coming home from our honeymoon. Before the wedding I went to Pure Barre almost everyday for months. There was a 20 classes in 30 days challenge in March and I did 20 classes in 21 days. I had so much drive and was so committed. When I came home I felt out of sync. I thought I would start back Monday or maybe Thursday. So far I haven't been back. We have been spending any extra $$ on house related projects and since I have a Golds Gym membership that I have used twice (and no way to get out of) I thought I would try and use that for right now. So far her workouts are pretty tough. I don't love a gym setting but there is a WOMEN only room at golds and at 5:30 AM my happy ass has been there and it hasn't been too too bad. I figured it was time to get back on the horse and stop going to Starbucks every morning before work. I finally used my own coffee pot and started eating a normal breakfast (but the old fashioned donut is o so good).  I miss Pure Barre bad but at the moment it isn't in my budget... paint is expensive. I am sure once I am finished with school and our house projects become more routine where I am not staying up so late ripping off that one last piece of wall-paper or running to Lowes for the lightbulb/ paint brush/ paint roller/ whatever else comes to mind as soon as my foot steps through that door.... that I will definitely be back to PB. I still love it so much and love my body from doing it but after the wedding prep madness I feel that I needed a little break to get back into a more normal groove.
