{my personalized osker card}

i'm a big card sender.  always have been, always will be.

i was thrilled to learn about the new online store, CardStore which lets you customize your own cards.

perfect for every occasion, really!

the process was simple and the photo turned out great for my osker design.

i chose to go with this photo design and added a personal message inside.

that osker face will be sent to cheer up a special someone's day.

mother's day is just around the corner and CardStore has a bunch of hilarious "mommisms"cards.

my favorites include this and this.

you can also tweek cards to make them more personable.

from now until May 6th, use this Code: CCF3425 to receive free shipping!

egg life. {the beach wedding edition}

jeff and i flew to naples for my beautiful cousin's wedding this past weekend.
i took 6 photos total and you're lookin' at em.
when i partake in events (i was a lucky bridesmaid) i never ever have time to bring out my camera.
that's okay though because they had an amazing photographer.
p.s. no photos of the bride because they are super blurry and don't do her justice.  apologies.

1. jeff and i at the rehearsal dinner looking super yachty.
for the record, more straight men complimented jeff on how handsome he was than me.
what am i, chopped liver!?
one woman told us we needed to "procreate immediately" and that made me feel a tad bit better about myself....i think.
2. day 2 was a beach party where these flamingo brides scattered the beach.
3. obligatory photo booth photos with my man and a random old phone?
4. obligatory photo booth photos with my cousin and his hot wife. you're welcome mary!
5. me and my brudders and my pretty bridesmaid dress.
6. little bro and jeffers looking sharp.  bow ties are the jam.

mountain lovin'.

there is something about a quality engagement shoot that really tugs at my heart.

i love me a good photo shoot.

especially one where my gorgeous friends are involved!

my friend ellie and her fiance ted are getting hitched in virginia this summer and i can't wait.

(theodore + eleanore is just too good)

he's a musician and she's a brainy architect so they make for an awesome couple.

the setting for their photo shoot, in that other mountain range back east, is simply stunning.

all photos by Eric Kelley.

do you have awesome mountain lovin' photos?  i'd love to see them and share my favorites~ email them to meagan{dot}murtagh@gmail{dot}com.

lotm: off-season projects

one thing i love about jeff is his handy-man skills.
i can't put together a table with instructions from walmart.
i think we're a good team...i come up with the ideas....he executes.
(aka does all the hard work)
but i mean, he's really good at building stuff.
look at this greenhouse he built in idaho from this past summer, click here.
now that the mountain has closed and off-season is here, i've got a lot of ideas (for jeff...)

but to be fair, i have a serious project for myself.
one that will take lots of time, energy, serious concentration!  
a kitchen garden.
some of you may laugh, but this girl has the worst green thumb in history.
once, i killed all of the plants at our office.
death by drowning. poor things.

{via}

anyways, it will look like this and we shall have many of dinner nights with fresh herbs sprinkled throughout my gourmet meals. 

the end.

or i'll just go to the local farmers market.

rum cake for a cause.

{the chunk missing?  just from my first taste.}

this here cake my friends, is THE best rum cake that will ever touch your lips.

and it'll make you feel real good too.  and not just in that way either ;)

this cake is fighting cancer, one bite at a time.

listen up.

one of my most favorite people in the whole entire world, nancy, has been battling pancreatic cancer since 2006.  yes, you read that correctly.  it has been 7 years since nancy was first diagnosed. you can read her entire story here but she's kind of like the poster child for kicking pancreatic cancer's ass. 

nancy started NancyCakes as a way to say thank you.  they were a pretty big hit. being the wonderful person that she is, she decided to start selling the cakes, with half of the profits going to pancreatic cancer research.  she sent me a cake last week to "test" and i ate about 3/4ths of it to myself, in one sitting.  it was seriously one of the best cakes i've ever eaten.  and she personally bakes all of the cakes herself!

{nancy pants at work.}

nancy uses high quality jamaican rum so these treats stay good for weeks to come.   

perfect for gifts! 

if you are interested in ordering a nancy cake, please click here.

go on, take a bite out of cancer.
