The Brown Eyed Bride: December 2010
http://thebrowneyedbride.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
The Brown Eyed Bride. Wednesday, December 29, 2010. Sorry I've been so MIA lately. Lots going on with the family. Too much to fill you in on, not wanting to talk about it. And Mostly. Just wanting to spend the holidays loving on my family. So, that's what I've been up to. We had an amazing Christmas with EVERYONE in town. W was feeling well, we ate like king and queens, drank like . . . champions, and cherished our time together. Wishing everyone was ALWAYS in Denver. Please move here? Snow of the season.

The Brown Eyed Bride: June 2010
http://thebrowneyedbride.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
The Brown Eyed Bride. Friday, June 25, 2010. My amazing Mom and her lovely friends joined together this morning for brunch, drinks (I'm assuming) and craft time. This sweet group of gals have been making fabric flowers for the wedding. Can I just say that they are saints? I have never met them and this is how they spend their Friday! Amazing, I know. I called this morning to thank them and heard a roar of southern accents. I can't wait to meet them! Thursday, June 24, 2010. Friday, June 11, 2010. The inv...

The Brown Eyed Bride: April 2010
http://thebrowneyedbride.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
The Brown Eyed Bride. Sunday, April 25, 2010. I've had a set image in my head of how I want my hair to be for the day of the wedding. Hasn't changed a bit. Haven't budged. Half up. Big barrel loose curls ( not. Prom style and over-hairsprayed). With a chunky vintage clip where the hair comes together. And possibly a birdcage veil. Pictures from Project Wedding. Any brides have any experience with down hair-dos? Is having your hair down a recipe for flat, limp hair by the end of the night? Getting those p...

The Brown Eyed Bride: March 2010
http://thebrowneyedbride.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
The Brown Eyed Bride. Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Val and I's latest brilliant idea is to create our own map {like these below} to include in the invitations. What I love most about the map idea is not only to show how lovely Denver is, but for the unexpected addition to the invitations. The creativity. The splash of color. Just fun! A few examples below. Above pictures via Couture Maps. Below picture via Laura Hooper Calligraphy. I can't wait to get started on these! Wednesday, March 24, 2010. Val found th...

The Brown Eyed Bride: Happy Thanksgiving!
http://thebrowneyedbride.blogspot.com/2010/11/happy-thanksgiving.html
The Brown Eyed Bride. Wednesday, November 24, 2010. Not thinking ahead, I just. Went to the grocery store tonight to buy everything for our Thanksgiving feast tomorrow. The Un. Safeway on Federal was surprisingly calm and had everything I needed in stock, whew! Since Val and Wayne headed to California to celebrate with Wayne's sister and parents . . . And because Mom and Ken moved to Virginia . . . And because Jordan has to work on Friday and all the Kal's are in Wyoming . . . In the Moment Valerie Koop.

The Brown Eyed Bride: May 2010
http://thebrowneyedbride.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
The Brown Eyed Bride. Thursday, May 27, 2010. Summer season has begun! Had an amazing night tonight starting with my oh-so-precious niece, Claire. She turned two. Ended the night with Miss Andrea's bridal shower! It was hosted in the yard of a beautiful home, every detail was just so. Raspberry lemonade in mason jars, hummus and veggies, cous cous and balsalmic chicken. Red wine. A family-style table in the middle of the yard. Wedding season has begun! Can Not. Wait! June 5 - My bridal shower! So, we left.

The Brown Eyed Bride: Home Making
http://thebrowneyedbride.blogspot.com/2010/11/home-making.html
The Brown Eyed Bride. Monday, November 22, 2010. On Friday I drove past a sign on the way home from work outside of a nunnery. Craft Sale, Holiday Gift Baskets, Baked goods, and more! Naturally, I was intrigued. And, I need to support the local nuns, of course. Not two seconds later my phone was ringing, it was Andrea. She was on her way to my house to pick me up and off we headed to this (most likely) huge craft sale! Surely I was going to find baskets full of holiday goodies. Oh, nuns . . . In other ne...

The Brown Eyed Bride: Cheap.
http://thebrowneyedbride.blogspot.com/2010/11/cheap.html
The Brown Eyed Bride. Tuesday, November 30, 2010. After months of walking around in my black heels, almost wearing them every day. They have started to deteriorate. Lining inside the shoe is peeling away. They've lost their shine. The actual heel has been scraped away, so, now, it's a steel rod that I'm walking on. The leather is peeling up from the heel exposing the steel rod. How I walked on these, I don't know. All that to say, today, I replaced them. Finally. And still felt a twinge of guilt.
