Lovely Ben & Mary

A few weekends ago I got to spend the day with some of my best friends taking pictures, how lucky am I? Ben and Mary wanted to combine city and country for their engagement shoot. First, we went back to where it all began {aka where Ben proposed}, the Texas state capitol. Then we headed out to Fredricksburg where we enjoyed some wine and sunshine. I love these two and can not wait for their wedding day!

Lovely Midnight in Paris

Love Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams, Marion Cotillard, Woody Allen and Paris. Can not wait for this movie.

Lovely Fiesta Weekend

On Friday we hosted a Fiesta celebration for our good friends, Mel & Patrick. Their wedding is a month away and we couldn't be more excited for them! {Sidenote: I got to take their engagement pictures at Whole Foods, how fun is that? Don't worry, those will be posted soon!}
Back to the fiesta though, here are a few shots of the delicious drinks, food & presents to sum up the evening:

Lovely Couscous Stuffed Bell Peppers

This might be one of my favorite meals to date. Beyond easy to make, delicious and healthy-ish.
Plus, the leftovers are deeeeeelicious.

{The ingredients. Feel free to mix and match with your whatever veggies/cheese you desire.}

{Follow the Couscous box directions. Should take around 5-10 minutes. While the couscous is cooking. Place 2 bell peppers in the oven at 350 degrees. This will allow the "bowls" to heat up while the rest of the dish comes together.}

{Then chop up your veggies and sauté until cooked through.}

{Combine couscous, goat cheese and veggies. Then remove bell pepper "bowls" from oven and stuff with mixture.
Place couscous stuffed bell peppers back into the oven for 15 minutes.}

{Another great thing about this dish, clean-up is easy!
While the stuffed bell peppers are baking, wash off your dishes and put away your yummy leftovers. Viola!}

{Remove and enjoy!}

What veggies would you use? What's your favorite couscous dish? I would love your feedback!

Lovely Music Monday

Have you heard the new Adele CD? It's incredible, just like her. A majority of the songs are self-written and there is nothing I respect more than a musically creative mind. Not to mention her voice is unbelievable. Adele's sound is the perfect Monday soundtrack.

Lovely...

My adoration for Pinterest continues to grow daily, so I want to share with you some of the simply lovely things I've discovered:

Lovely Plan

Hi, my name is Kelsey, I used to blog here regularly. Recently life as been a tiny bit crazy. I know, excuses excuses, but don't worry because I have a plan. That's right. A carved in stone plane to get me back on track.

1st: Finish redesigning my blog. I'm sure you've noticed tiny changes here and there every time you visit. I AM going to finish and hopefully it will look great. The goal is to have sections that are easy to navigate...food, photography and fashion to name a few.

2nd: Below you will find the new {loose} schedule for Loving Wings. I thought about making a cute and perfectly designed image, but no, this is my life right now, dry erase markers and sticky notes.

3rd: Launch my new website. Much more on this later.

Any words of advice on how to balance a crazy life? How do you like the new {loose} schedule? Any topics missing that you just can't live without? I need your input, because YOU are the reason I love doing this little blog.

PS: Don't judge my doodles, please. I'm a graphic designer...not so much with the freehand.

Lovely Saturday

On Saturday we spent the day in Fredericksburg with some of our best friends. We drank wine, enjoyed the beautiful weather and took lots of engagement pictures. Here is a tiny sneak peek:

Lovely King Cole

My cousin, Coleman {King Cole as he prefers to be called}, ties the knot in May. Aren't they cute? 

We just love Elizabeth and are so happy to welcome her into our family! They are coming down to Texas soon for a shower in RT, and my mom asked me to design some invitations for the party.

These were too much fun to put together and I definitely got the itch to do some more invitation design. Let me know what you think!

Lovely Monday Music

This past weekend I was introduced to a new band, Nelo. The Austin based group lived up to their amazing reputation. It would be rude for me not to share the love...
