Goood morning! 
Do you watch Minute to Win It? It’s the new game show on NBC with Guy Fieri (from the Food Network) as the host, and it.is.awesome!! Contestants complete crazy tasks in one minute increments, trying win a million dollars. These aren’t lame tasks like sprinting to a cone, spinning in a chair ten times and then, I don’t know, running up a mountain. They have to do really neat stuff like stack golf balls on top of each other, or keep a feather in the air for a minute by blowing on it. Anyways, it’s super intense and Ben and I were totally into it last night – yelling at the screen and such. Good Sunday night fun! 
Do you like game shows?
At any rate, I’m taking breakfast on the go this morning – Multigrain Cheerios! In the mix:
- Multigrain Cheerios
- Toasted almonds
- Dried Cranberries
- Banana, for slicing
I adore regular Cheerios with almonds, dried cranberries and bananas, so I can’t imagine how delish the lightly sweetened multigrain variety will be!
Oh, I always have issues with my bananas browning too fast, so someone told me to store them separated. So far so good. I got them Saturday morning, and not a brown spot in sight!
The whole thing shall be doused in Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze. The best.
I’ve got a nice spread for lunch too! Starting with a big Kitchen Sink Salad.
In the mix:
- Lettuce
- Spinach
- Carrots
- Celery
- Toasted almonds
- Dried cranberries
- Feta Cheese
Crunchy and full of flavors. Just the way I like it. 
And for snack time – a 100 Calorie bag of popcorn,
and a crunchy, Fuji Apple. I like the snack combo of these two items the best, me thinks.
Well, mark your calendars – today officially marks me and Ben’s 2 year wedding anniversary!
I can’t believe it’s already been two years!! It’s gone by so quickly, yet I feel like we’ve always been married – in a good way!
Our wedding day was nothing short of perfect. Surrounded by our loving families and best friends. My older brother even married us!
I loved the flowers at our wedding too. It was peak peony season, so all the girls had different shades of them in their bouquets. GORGE!
We had a cough relatively cough large wedding party.
What can I say? We love to love!
I love this picture of Ben and me dancing with both of our parents. It looks really old-timey. Very cool.
Ben is my best friend and I literally smile everyday when I remember that I get to spend the rest of my life with him. Marriage = the best.
I hope you have a fabulous Monday. If you’re not in the mood – fake it til you make it!

Hey there IGE! I am a new reader to the blog but I am from Des Moines, IA! I am currently living in Greenville, SC but I was born and raised in good old Des Moines! I was looking through your pics today an I noticed your wedding reception was held at the same place as mine! It looks like the Sheraton in West Des Moines! Am I right? My husband and I were married at St. Francis Assisi in West Des Moines on Jan 5, 2008 and held our awesome reception at the Sheraton. I love your blog and I love how it reminds me of home. Keep up the good work! Maybe next time I am home we can get lunch! Best wishes!

Thanks so much for posting them! You are very talented!
Happy anniversary! Beautiful pics! My husband and I will be celebrating our 1-year on the 25th this month–I can’t believe how fast time has flown by.
Congrats!! And the pictures are beautiful! I am single…I do date occasionally…just haven’t found anyone that I feel that ‘spark” w/yet. But that’s ok…cuz I like living by myself so I am prepared to wait forever for the “sparky” one to come along! I refuse to settle for less! I have been watching Minute To Win It. Very entertaining in a simple way! I was yelling at the tv too! Ha! The games look fun to try at my next party! Cheap entertainment!
I married my best friend almost 2 years ago. I feel like we’ve been married forever too. We get to share our celebration with friends this year who are getting married 2 days before our anniversary.
Happy Anniversary! I love seeing other people’s wedding photos. Makes me happy
My 3 year anniversary is coming up o nthe 28th! We’ve been together for ten years though.
Happy Anniversary! Wow girl, you were young when you got married! I’m 28 and just living with my boyfriend, def was too busy living the city life any earlier to want to settle down (and maybe too into my party girl phase if you will
)… I think now I’m finally ready to be all domesticated and I know I’ve met the right one to do it with 
But we’ll see!
Happy Anniversary hun!! You guys looked stunning on your wedding day and still do! My one year anniversary with my husband is coming up and we need to think of some way to celebrate!! I can’t believe it’s almost been a year, time flies!! I haven’t heard of that game show before but it sounds like something I’d love to watch, will have to look out for it!
I saw some of your wedding pictures when I was looking at flowers for my wedding. Love them.
Hi there,
I am going to try the “green monster” tomorrow for breaky.
Love your blog, found it last week and have been enjoying your comments on New Orleans. I would love to go there one day!!
I was wondering what type of salad dressing you use on your salads? I am trying to eat more healthy now to get ready for bathing suit season
Happy Anniversary! Love is the best.
Happy Anniversary! I loved seeing your photos – absolutely gorgeous wedding!
Happy anniversary!
My man and I have been dating for almost 5 years
