Happy Friday my loves!! In exactly one week I will be getting ready to walk down the stairs to marry Mark!!! I seriously cannot believe this final countdown is on. Let’s get right into it!
Favorite Song
This song probably gets played 2-3 times during a run such a great tempo beat. Calvin Harris ft Ellie Goulding Outside.
Favorite Recipe
Be careful. This could be consumed in an entire sitting…..by yourself. Stir Fried Singapore Noodles with Garlic Ginger Sauce full recipe here.
Favorite Workout
Top 10 moves for thinner thighs. This is such a good roundup of exercises total burners!
Favorite Purchase
This long sleeved romper looks like a total $300 shopbop buy and it was $25. The fit is amazing and I love the pattern and sleeves on it. Can be worn with black tights and booties or with a skinny gold belt and sky high heels in the Warmer months. Obsessed.
Favorite Funnies
Is this terrible of me?
Straight truth. Mine is my pair from freshman year in college.
I miss the days when someone else was in charge of my hair
Walking behind all the snowbirds who have flocked down here and are clogging up my Costco and driving lanes
When Mark came home from softball last night early while I was watching Gilmore girls and drinking wine (I mean I finally got my apple tv turned back on!)
How I felt this entire last work week before I’m off for the Wedding
It’s Friday dance it out
What are your favorites from the week? I hope you have a fabulous weekend! I have my final fitting tomorrow!!!! I am so exited for this final countdown! xoxoxo
Yay only one week to go!!! Love it. Those stir fry singapore noodles look great. I havent seen gluten free singapore noodles but when I find that I will be on it. And I love the funnies. I do take pleasure in the fact that people MUCH younger look older than I am. Being short helps haha
Oh my goodness! Only 1 week away? You must be flipping out.
Snowbirds is too true. I don’t miss that time of year.
Happy one week countdown!!! Super exciting :)
Yayyy! As soon as I read the first line of your post that song “It’s the final countdown” popped into my head! I’m so excited for you girl! Next week is going to fly by. Loveee that song, it’s on constant repeat! And I totally miss the days when someone else was in charge of my hair. Good luck at your final fitting tomorrow!!

I can’t even believe it’s one week away – amazing!! Love that romper you bought – we’re on the same wave length today with purchases!!! Hope you have a great last weekend as a Ms.!!! xo, Biana – BlovedBoston
I actually woke up thinking “Amanda’s getting married in a week!”….so that is either creepy to you or exciting lol
Enjoy this week (and especially this weekend). It’ll be filled with so much excitement, family, and love :) Can’t wait to see everything!
P.S. I laughed at your pins…the slide was probably my favorite (and no it’s not wrong to take comfort with younger people looking older! that’s always ok haha)
Have a great weekend, sweet friend!! :)
ah one week!!!!! so exciting. that’s pretty much the most important thing going down :) but that song is great too and that recipe? ok now i’m hungry. happy friday!xo

How exciting! Once the final week was here, I felt like I could relax and enjoy friends and family because everything was finally done. I hope you are able to do the same sweet girl, and where do you find these gifs? The kid going down the slide is hilarious!!!!!

Ahhh! One week!!
i can’t believe it’s almost time!! i’m so excited for pictures. you are going to be the most gorgeous bride!!
The jeans ecard is the big winner for today. On my blog I complained how I’m finally fitting in a pre-prednisone jeans, only to have my rheumatologist quadruple my dose yesterday. Womp womp.
I can’t believe you have one week. Everything’s done, ENJOY!
Happy one week out! It’ll feel like the longest and shortest week all at once ;) I’ve been listening to that Ellie Goulding song on repeat all week too – such a catchy song! Hope you have a great weekend! xoxo
Happy Friday gurlie, enjoy this last week!
I love that Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding song too, and my world was rocked yesterday when I found out that Ellie is who Ed Sheerhan is singing about in his song “Don’t”. Mind Blown.
It feels like you said it was a month away a week ago! I’m always super glad when you post workout things. I’ve been looking for some gym inspiration lately!
COUNTDOWN IS ON!!!!!!!! I’m so excited for you!!
I have sat & laughed on repeat that kid sliding down the slide :)
Oh my gosh girl… one week?!? I’m so stinking excited for you.. it’s gonna be amazing and can’t wait to see the beautiful recap! Where are you going for your honeymoon??
Those noodles look delish!! Is it horrible I can’t stop laughing every time I see that kid go down the slide?! Happy Friday!
lol i have a pair of shorts that are my “are you in shape” marker… right now obviously they dont fit but hopefully they will a few months after the baby arrives! xo jillian – cornflake dreams
haha everyone has those jeans or pants that helps you figure out when you need to lose some weight. for me, it’s a pair of old guess hip hugger jeans circa 1993. i tossed all of my old clothes out but kept that one and it was the best feeling when i could finally get back into them!
I can not even believe it is a week before the wedding!!! That romper is to die and the gifs are too funny. The Taylor Swift thing the story of my life lol. I am never alone . xoxo Have the best weekend! Even though next weekend will really be your best weekend! ;)
Yay for being in the home stretch!! I’m so excited for you girl!
EEEEK! Wedding week! So stinking excting, lady! This will be the best week, ever. It’s so full of love, excitment joy and happiness. I’m sending you alllll my <3 and sparkles, too!
Love all your funnies, as usual. That Miranda pin is a favorite, she’s hilariously evil, right?
<3 you lady!
I have felt the same way all week long! Not that I am about to get married or anything though. :) I can’t believe how quickly this came up. I know you are excited!
Oh my gosh one week!! That is so exciting! LOL I totally agree about wishing someone else could be in charge of my hair! Such a chore! And yes to the pair of jeans being a true test of weight loss! I think we all have that pair of jeans we put on to see if we fit into them yet! :D Have a wonderful weekend!
One more week?!?! (bride emoji!!)
Holy Balls… one week!!! Enjoy every minute of the anticipation:) The little boy on the slide made me LOL, that’s how I feel every day right now!
Great post. The kid on the slide totally cracks me up! Have a great weekend!
Traci @ waltzmetoheaven

Yay! ONE WEEK! So excited for you! Also, I agree with the first funny. I have to think that way because otherwise I would feel bad that people ask if I’m 16 all the time! Haha.

I cannot believe the wedding is a week away, hooray! I dropped a little something in the mail for you and Mark yesterday, so hopefully it gets to you in the next few days. I’ve been all about thigh workouts lately, so that definitely is coming to the gym with me today, and that romper! Looking into that, too. Have a great weekend!
One week!!! This gives me chills for you. So excited! That thigh workout looks just like certain barre moves that totally burn and work. Need to do some of those after all this Vday candy!
Happy Friday Amanda! I am so super excited for the wedding! Enjoy your final fitting! xo

One week? Wow time flies! So excited for you. I bet the jitters are full force about now. Seriously I cant tell you how many times I’ve been caught watching Maid in Manhattan and drinking wine. (;

Love the romper you got and $25 is a steal!! You must be getting so excited for the final stretch before the wedding!
One week! I can’t believe it.
I love my husband (duh) but the other night he came home like 2 hours early from some work thing and I had just finished dinner (pigging out on junk) and hadn’t even turned on netflix yet, i was so upset.
Meanwhile – ONE WEEK!! Holy moly. You better instagram the shit out of everything because I want to see everything!
