Pecan Pancakes with Peanut Butter Syrup "Brett's Choice"

Recipe from a friend . . .

My friend Joanna made cookies for all of us last year for Valentine's Day and shared her wonderful cookie recipe with us as well. Since I changed jobs and no longer work with my friend, I decided to make some to share. I made them last night and I think they turned out really cute, so I decided to share them on the blog.

From this . . .

something old. something new. something borrowed. something blue.

so this past weekend i was blesssed to be part of a phenomenal wedding. my best friend, katie, from the ranch married the love of her life(whom she met at the ranch) this past sunday. since i was her MOH (maid of honor) i flew out last wednesday to help all week with the wedding festivities. i never realized how many tinyyy details there were for a wedding that seems like its gone in the blink of an eye. but none the less, it was so much fun. the wedding was small but it was at the cutest little chapel and had a perfect number of people to make it magical. the bridesmaids were her 4 sisters and me so we had a ball. she let us get a dress that showed our personalities (it just had to be black & knee length) and i must say that they were all so cute. although, i am totally in love with my dress. B&K, you will definitely see me in this dress at your rehearsal dinner. everything all through the process was so amazing and of course, when katie got all ready, she looked like she stepped right out of bride magazine. i know i might be a little bias since she is my best friend, but you will see in the pictures below that she was a stunnnnnning bride. being an "insider" in the whole process has made me so much more excited about B&K's wedding. i absolutely can't wait. hope you enjoy:)

"Some love lasts a lifetime. True love lasts forever."

On the first day of Valentines my true love gave to me . . .

1 box of Hot Tamales, 2 new magazines, 3 new ink pens (2 red & 1 pink), 4 boxes of Conversation Hearts, 5 o'clock movie & dinner @ Iquana, 6 hours of Movie Night,

30 days of Cathi

What a great "birth"month I am having. On my birthday, my sweet husband served me breakfast in bed, gave me a beautiful bouquet of flowers, and we went out to dinner. He also informed me that starting (on my birthday) it is going to begin "30 days of Cathi". He said that since Bethany has always expected us to celebrate the whole month of July as her "birth"month then he was going to do the same for me! He is giving me a gift

e-v-e-r-y day. This is fun!
