wisdom teef, tea parties, job interviews, being a desperate housewife

school is out. forever! (i can say this with confidence because grades came out yesterday and i scored a 3.9 GPA. that goal i made when i started at the U, to never get below an A-, has been achieved. you know when you stress out about whether or not you'll be able to actually achieve the high goals you set for yourself? and that fear of self disappointment? i'm very relieved and surprised to have done it. tryin' to work on that whole "it's okay to disappoint yourself sometimes" thing.)

so school is out and i have kind of been ignoring the virtual world, other than my new obsession with instagram. but i promise there have been many things going on in the real world. like...

travis got his wisdom teeth out and i played nursemaid. i still have mine, so maybe i had a tough time empathizing. poor travis really hates mouth pain. i'm very thankful that he is almost totally healed up. i had never seen travis on any kind of pain pill before, and let me just tell you, he is really friendly on percocet. like our next door neighbor who met him for the first time, sat and chatted with him for over half and hour. and if you know travis, you know that much talking at first is not typical. pretty hilarious. i think i'm going to keep those pills around for social events when i really need his A game.

sleepin' like a bebe.

i had a group interview for a psych tech position at the university hospital. you know group interviews; it's so hard to tell if they like you in the four questions they ask. they said they would let us know the first week of june, so in the meantime i'm applying for other jobs and waiting around. the house is really, really clean though and all the laundry is done.

my mom and i threw a tea party themed baby shower for my friend/sister-in-law, liana. we had so much fun planning and decorating for this. 

 hand painted the invites

old closet doors and her maternity pictures on display

loved how the table turned out

amazing second hand finds for the decor

dainty tea party treats

my grandmother's china 

we played games, opened presents, and enjoyed the sunshine.

and of course liana and i got some cute pictures together...

 we are such weirdies. love this lady and can't wait to meet little amelia in a month or so.

also, i am back on the photography wagon. something about graduating from college.... kept me pretty busy. but in the last week i did several shoots that i'm excited about. 

also, stumbled across this helpful article about marriage. {here}

also, travis surprised me with a beach cruiser bicycle as a grad present, which we are picking up tomorrow! 

well, i'm throwing a dinner party tonight with several sister-in-laws, so i better get moving. this whole desperate housewives lifestyle really suits me. (speaking of, did you see the season finale?? so devastated that it's over!) 

happy mid-may! xo
