A Match Made in High School by Kristin Walker

A Match Made in High SchoolA Match Made in High School by Kristin Walker
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I really enjoyed this book! Had I not had the pesky duty of going to work, I would have read this one cover to cover in one sitting. I really enjoyed Fiona, as well as the supporting cast of characters, and enjoyed learning some colorful new phrases. The book flowed so well that it was hard to put down! I recommend this to anyone looking for something funny and jaunty.

Which Austen heroine are you?

I am Anne Elliot!
Take the Quiz here!

You are Anne Elliot of Persuasion! Let's face it; you're easily persuaded, particularly when friends and relatives try to use "the Elliot way" against you. But this doesn't mean that you don't have conviction. Actually, your sense of duty is overwhelming. And though you won't stick your neck out too often, you have learned to speak up when it counts. To boot, you know how to handle sticky situations. You love deeply and constantly.

Fernandes Wedding

We had the pleasure of attending the wedding of our friends Jamie & Jason over the weekend and had tons o' fun! They had it at Paris on Ponce's Le Maison Rouge - it was AWESOME! Here's some pics! Might I also add that I'd make the crappiest wedding photog EVER b/c I never get a picture of the bride and groom together just the two of them. I am made of fail.









How many weddings feature showgirls? Love it.

Bride Jamie, Groom Jason, Greg & Jason's brother

Too bad Jamie's not at all happy with her new hubs!

Jason B. & Greg

Jason B. & me, not having any fun whatsoever at this event.

Sending the newlyweds off in a miasma of bubble delights

Goodnight!
