When in New Jersey...FIST PUMP!

I had a beautiful weekend with the Henline (Mom's side) of the family as we all traveled to the Garden State to celebrate my cousin Leslie's wedding in Princeton, New Jersey.  Princeton is adorable!  Wish I could live in a cute town like that whenever I start a family of my own.  It just had so much charm to it.

After massive delays traveling from Laredo to Houston and Houston to La Guardia I finally managed to meet up with my mom and sister in NYC and from there we took a train to NJ.  Although we missed the rehearsal dinner due to my delays from Hurricane Alex, we managed to get there eventually and started our fun weekend at the beautiful Nassau Inn.  The hotel was a great location for the wedding so kudos to my cousin and her new hubby for their choice! Loved it! 

The Nassau Inn is right in the heart of the cutest little shopping area ever, Palmer's Square.  Of course my sister and I couldn't resist the fab boutique shopping and what do you know, I came home with a great purchase- one gorge pair of peep toe heels! LOVE LOVE LOVE! Can't wait till this delivery shows up on my front door!  And the best part, 30% off! Yes!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Nine West!

Leslie and Andrew had a beautiful outdoor wedding at the hotel and so much so that people stopped in the streets to watch my Uncle Roy walk Leslie down the aisle.  It was a picture perfect Garden Wedding and I loved so many things about it!  I wish I had pictures to post but I let my mom's camera and cousin Claire tackle that so hopefully I'll get my hands on some of those soon.

We danced fist pumped the night away to an seriously awesome music selection.  Makes me re think wanting to have rap/hip hop/clubby music at my wedding because they did it right and it was SO fun! My feet and legs hurt so bad the next morning not to mention I may have had one too many margaritas but a wonderful night with my family celebrating a wedding....totally worth it!

We spent the 4th of July weekend at my Aunt Snookie's house.  Yes. I have an aunt who lives in New Jersey and her nick name is Snookie.  My grandpa nicked named her that many years ago I learned so obviously it's a mere coincidence to all you Jersey Shore fans.   Her real name is Claire :)  I just loved the neighborhood that my aunt lives in- Collingswood, NJ.  All the house are 3 story and are historical so that are regulations on things you can do to your home there to keep the old town charm of it all.  We sat our back in her garden and drank, Jeremiah Weed, which were delicious and spent time together.

All of my cousin's kids were playing in the pool and we just all enjoyed each other's company.  I got to see Wawa for the first time which is a place my boyfriend, Jeff, always told me about since he grew up in New Jersey and I have to say- it's kind of AWESOME!  I totally get every one's obsession with the place.

We had an amazing time at the local high school in Collingswood where we saw a pretty great firework display.  Having grown up with Disney and Universal in my backyard I had high expectations and they were surpassed for sure- and we didn't even have to pay to park! LOVE IT! Check it out!!

After an early morning of flying I made it back safe and sound to Texas with enough energy left to give my Mason some extra love and attention for turning 3 years old! Happy Birthday Mase Mase! Your Momma loves you!!!!
