Now that things have calmed down a little bit at work and I’m back from Bridal Market, let’s get caught up! I wish I could get together for coffee with each of you to chat, but maybe this is the next best thing. The past year has been one of the busiest and most exciting years of my life, and before diving into the fun new posts I have planned for Something Pretty, I thought a little recap was in order. Here’s what I was up to in the year I took off of blogging!

Now, I’m planning our wedding (6 1/2 months to go!), decorating my new apartment (which Dave will move into after our wedding), getting ready for my second magazine launch at work, trying to cut five minutes off of my 5k time by the end of the year, cooking up healthy recipes, and doing my best to make the most of fall! I’d love to know, what are you up to these days? Let’s catch up!
