This weekend is going to be great! today is sunny and beautiful and there are a lot of amazing local events happening. I will be attending a wedding for my lovely friends and am oh so excited! I've only been to one wedding before as a bridesmaid in my little sisters wedding. I cried like child who lost their binkie but it was a beautiful ceremony and my father officiated it making it even More special. I Love wedding and am excited to celebrate with such amazing people.

If you don't know, my fiend Candice ( the bride) is an amazing belly dancer and henna artist and she regularly frequents mojos and the Athenian to practice her art. She is also one of the leading ladies in my group the Ogden rad mamas and she has an amazing green thumb. She is so dang crafty that she is even doing a DIY wedding! This lady has it all so lets all wish her a happy wedding and hope it doesn't rain!
