80's Party

Last Saturday night, the gym had their one year anniversary/birthday party, which was held at the gym. When I refer to "the gym", I mean Crossfit Deep Ellum that Koy owns with a few partners. They had a few kegs and other drinks, My Fit Foods provided some food, and one of the member's band played. It was so much fun! I already had some 80's staples from previous dress-up parties. So, I just supplemented it with a funny t-shirt I found at Buffalo Exchange that said "Hard as Nails" with a lady dressed up as a cat with claws on it, Lea let me borrow her tutu-looking thing that was actually meant to be worn as a slip for one of her old halloween costumes, and I found legit fingerless gloves and leg warmers at a cool vintage store in Uptown called Ahab Bowen. They were awesome! Some other people had some great costumes as well. Pam had the best big 80's hair and hard-core make-up and Julianna had the best outfit- a bright blue leather dress and jacket with big shoulder pads. The best part is that it was actually her boyfriend Andrew's mom's outfit that she wore to her high school reunion in the 80's. Can't get more authentic than that! The band was cool too even though they didn't know a whole lot of 80's songs. I forgot to take a picture of them, though. I'm looking forward to next year's party already! : )



My yellow high heels and leg warmers got cut off in this picture. : (

Julianna and Andrew looked awesome!!!

Ken, Courtney's friend, Courtney, and Brian. Nice shorts, Brian!

Koy, me, Pam, Tiffany, and Jeremy. Tiffany's crimped hair was fabulous!

Tracy, Tiffany, and Tiffany dancing!

Towards the end of the night. Just so you know, I was wearing cut-off jean shorts under my tutu. You can't see them very well, though. Oh, and Koy's converse are denim. Hilarious!

Anniversary

Saturday, October 2nd, was Koy and my two year anniversary of our first date. To celebrate, we went to dinner at the Grape on lower Greenville and then to the Citizen Cope concert at House of Blues. Dinner was so wonderful. I had the steak and fries, but subbed roasted new potatoes for the fries. The last time we were there, I had the same thing except I subbed sweet potatoes for the fries. I think I liked the sweet potatoes better, but it will still delicious this time as well. After dinner, we went to Kozy to have some of our favorite gluten-free cake. We actually ended up getting a half a slice (their slices are huge) of strawberry shortcake (our current absolute favorite), a half a piece of german chocolate, and a half a piece of their new oreo cake. They were all awesome, but the strawberry was the best. We are probably going to have them make that for our wedding cake. It is to die for! Afterwards, we went to House of Blues for the concert. It was really good even though he didn't play all the songs I wanted him too. I guess they can't please everyone. All in all, it was a great anniversary! xoxo
