God Bless The Queen!

Greetings from the UK! 


These last few weeks... erh months really have been a crazy whirlwind of phone calls, moving out of our apartment, getting shifts covered, DPS paperwork, post office runs, getting more shifts covered, finals and defensive driving courses, all so that we can vacation in the beautiful England for SIX GLORIOUS WEEKS!!!! Oh I am so pumped it's ridiculous! We finally made it through the year and sweet sweet summer has arrived! (Even though it may not feel summery because of the cold and and rain).  But even though the weather is not what us Texans would call warm, it is just absolutely beautiful here! Take a look! 
Just one of the beautiful views from somewhere up high!

We have had countless adventures and I have walked more than I ever have in my life (and I survey pipelines!) But so far I have to say that England is definitely one of my favorite places! The people are so friendly (not something i was expecting coming from the state of hospitality) and everything is just so absolutely adorable! The entire country is like a huge antique shop! I just love it. 

The day after we arrived Joey and I hopped on a train to visit York for our anniversary weekend! That's right, we made it One Whole Year and I still could not be happier or more in love! How could I not be with a husband like this? 
Isn't he handsome?
That's him with a Prawn Cocktail, a weird salad they enjoy here with a mayonnaise type dressing. The restaurant was adorable! It was in a tower in the side of a bridge. Everything in the whole town was so beautiful. It was old and all made of stone and so enchanting! Here are some pictures of our weekend! Joey was there I promise he was just the one taking all of the pictures. I swear if he wasn't around I would forget and none of our adventures would be documented! 
At the train station
My first English Fish n' Chips!
 We took a boat tour before checking in to our Bed and Breakfast slash Pub
 A quick bite to eat before our terror trail - apparently York is haunted!

Karaoke Night at the Gillygate Pub
Beautiful York Minster 
And I of course had to make a stop at the famous TOPSHOP! 
I  picked up these earring on sale for 3 pounds! Yay! 

Well I hope you are enjoying England as much as I am! Thanks for reading! I'll try to keep up with updates as our lovely holiday continues! 

Cheers!

Honeymoon Part Dos!

Hello Everyone! Sorry I've been out of touch the last few days. My husband and I are on part 2 of our honeymoon, -A Carribean Cruise! It has been such a blast! There is so much to do on and off the boat and there is so much food It's insane! It's literally like a 5-star hotel on the water! Almost everything is included, our meals, movie in the room, room service, broadway shows, and I have to say the tax and duty free shopping is wonderful! Of course we have had our mishaps. For example, we had just boarded the ship and it hadn't even left the dock yet but we decided to go ahead and get some lunch at the fancy restaurant just to check it out. It's beautiful by the way and the food is delicious! Anyway, I had just recieved my steak and I accidentally spilled my water all over myself and my food! It turned out OK though because our waiter just brought me a brand new steak! How crazy is that!? It was awesome! (except for the part where our suitcase hadn't been deli...

Tuesday Treasures!

Happy New Year Everybody! I know I am a day or two late but, what the hey! It's a new year!   --That means new beginnings and New Years Resolutions ! Here are a few of mine: Get my office (which is a poor mess) nice and tidy Keep up with my blog a little bit better (I'm starting out strong don't ya think?) Read the whole bible this year (Joe and I have received our One Year Bible so that should help) And of course, Be a better wife! But enough about me! Let's get on to what this post is really about. When I started this blog, I wanted it to be about fashion and beauty and all of those things that us girls really love. -But it seems to have turned into me just talking about myself the whole time (shocker I know). Anyways, that's why I came up with this: TUESDAY TREASURES Cute name right?  Tuesday Treasures will consist of several categories in which I talk about things that I like. And as the name gives it away, I will post a new one ever other Tuesday! (...
