Guess what I picked up after work today?
My wedding dress is officially in my possession!
Letβs do this thang! π
My name is Julie and I am a full-time blogger, new mama, fitness enthusiast (certified personal trainer and group exercise instructor) and food fanatic (mostly healthy... but also not-so-healthy) living in North Carolina with my husband, dog and baby boy. Thank you for visiting Peanut Butter Fingers! I hope you enjoy little glimpses into my life and have fun trying the sweaty workouts I frequently share and making some of my favorite recipes along the way!

Bee Goes Bananas says
That’s SSOO exciting! I can’t wait to have my dress in my possession. I can’t believe I’ve been reading your blog for so long, hearing about your wonderful wedding plans and it’s FINALLY happening!!!
Marla says
Hi Julie! Congrats! I know you will look beautiful! I just wanted to say how refreshing and wonderful it has been reading your blog! As a twenty-something woman with a lot of friends getting married and soon-to-be bride myself, I have seen so many girls get caught up in the planning process and get crazy/miserable. It’s been so nice to see someone really have fun with it and remember the true meaning of a wedding! I wish you and Ryan so much happiness!
peanutbutterfingers says

Holly @ couchpotatoathlete says
Julie how exciting π
I can’t wait to see what it looks like!
Jamie @ Food in Real Life says
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!! I made my father in law install a hook in the middle of my ceiling in a spare room in my house so I could let it hang loose and shut the door. He thought I was crazy, and wanted to put the hook near the window (so it could be repurposed for a hanging plant) NEAR A WINDOW? Hello, condensation?? It was a bridezilla moment. Hook is still there. I laugh when I see it sometimes π
*Andrea* says

Gina says

GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK, GOOD LUCK!
so excited to see how beautiful you look in your dress (probably even a teeeensy bit better than sadie the blushing bride). be sure to post your something new, borrowed, and blue, too! π
peanutbutterfingers says
ahh i definitely will. i still don’t know what my something blue will be… my sister said it’s a secret!
Laura @ Tidbits says
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SO EXCITING!!!
Only days away now! π
Rebecca says
so exciting!
Kelly says
YAY!!!! I am so excited for you. Okay I am going to say this (and know that I mean this in the nicest possible way ever!!) Julie…don’t blog on your honeymoon. That is such a special time and you shouldn’t worry or be focused on anything but you and Ryan. I know blogging is a really big part of your life and we all love you for it. But your honeymoon is more than just a vacation…it is a time to spend with Ryan without interruptions. Maybe I am just really sappy but on my honeymoon with Keith I looked at it as a time that was devoted to us and it was such an amazing time where I got to revel in the newness of our marriage. I was such an eye opening time to be just one on one without anything from the “real” world. Just think about it….
peanutbutterfingers says
i definitely appreciate your advice, but i will be blogging b/c we’re fortunate enough to be able to get a discounted rate from the resort we’re staying at under the pretense that i blog about it. :). i’m not going to stick to the 3 posts-a-day format i usually do, and will be blogging only in “down time.”
Sarah K. @ The Pajama Chef says
yay!
Chicago Cuisine Critique says
Can’t wait to see the dress!
LauARL says
OMG im so excited for you!! I just got married in mid Sept. and it was the best day. Have an amazing time! Take it all in and really enjoy it! π
Mary @ Fervent Foodie says
YAY!!!! I’m so excited for you!
Dani @ Dani Does It says
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! exciting π
Jenn (eating bender) says
Woot, woot! I’m so glad you took Thursday off, too! You are going to be so glad you did. I can’t WAIT to see your dress and all of the fabulous pictures! I’m so pumped for you – congrats!!!!!! π
Clare @ Fitting It All In says
HOW FREAKING EXCITING!!! It’s soo close! Congratulations ahead of time:)
Amber K says
YAY! It starts to feel more and more real as it gets closer!
