For some reason I always feel like Tidbit Tuesday needs some sort of introduction. But hopefully by now you know what it’s all about. :)
Please note! From this point forward, alysefrenchphotography.com and alysefrench.com are one in the same. As are alysefrenchphotographyblog.com and alysefrenchblog.com. Go ahead, try it out. ;)
Poll: Is it socially acceptable to wear sunglasses in the winter? Or is that just lame? Here’s what I think.. Snow is really, really bright. Ergo, I should be able to wear any one of my new 15 pairs of sunglasses Dylan bought me, right? I was wearing them all last week, until I told my mom and she said, “Look around you. How many other people are wearing sunglasses in the dead of Syracuse winter? Exactly, Alyse..” Bah humbug, Mom!
I think I’ve become an addict. Dylan and I have finished off four two liters of diet Crush orange soda this past week. The first legit diet soda that isn’t altogether icky. And sometimes while writing Tidbit Tuesday, I think to myself, “Who wants to know that?!” But hey, it is MY Tidbit Tuesday right? So soda and sunglasses it is. :)
Now don’t get me wrong, I love the Olympics, watching people fulfill their wildest dreams of medaling, watching their parents’ reactions, ya know, all that mushy stuff that I happen to love. But seriously, people.. Ice dancing? I LOVE watching figure skating, so don’t hate. But ice dancing just makes me giggle a little every time I watch it. I think maybe curling and ice dancing should hold their own games, and not force us to sit through them to get to all the other awesomeness. Who’s with me?
How is it, that every time I lay me down to sleep, without fail, I have some sort of dream about our wedding day, and how TERRIBLE it ends up being? Let me quickly walk you through my last dream: 1) The wedding was at our house. Not necessarily a bad thing, but not what he had planned OR payed for. 2) My seamstress had added a halter top to my non-halter top dress and I didn’t know until the day of. 3) I looked awful. 4) Half of our guests started leaving before I even walked down the aisle because they thought I was taking too long. 5) Did I mention I looked absolutely awful? Nothing worse than that. Ugh.
I literally blogged my guts out last week. And it was so much fun! :) Does anyone have any technical and/or other type questions I could answer in a FAQ or tutorial post later this week? Leave some comment-love below!!
I will be a Mrs. in 110 days. I don’t even think it’s really hit me yet. One day, I’m going to wake up and it will be my wedding day. My initials will spell ARM rather than ARF, which is quite the upgrade, right? (I thought so!) And life as we know it will drastically change. Bring it on! I’m seriously thinking it’s about time to make one of those countdown paper-chain snakes!!! :)
And I shall leave you with the following tidbit: I know it might be a long while until Dylan and I know where we’ll be living and everything, but I simply can’t help it. I spent much of yesterday researching pretty things for my studio space. How AMAZING are these beautiful things?!

all this to say…i won’t miss a tidbit tuesday:) they’re GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRReat!
lindsay - agreed, jess…on every point! but let’s talk about just one more thing: your initials!!! ARF to ARM is a MAAAAAAJOR upgrade!! Go Dylan, and all of his ancestors for helping you out with THAT one!!
Kate - If i can rock the sunglasses in winter look, you certainly can. Sometimes it seems even more bright in the winter.. so why shouldn’t we wear them? GO FOR IT. and what is with the hating on the ice-dancing?! Sure it’s no where near as cool as ice-skating.. but it’s still cool! It’s like ballroom dancing.. on ice. how can you not enjoy that? well, i suppose somehow. and i cannot wait to decorate my own house.. and have looked at and picked pretty things that i really love… and i’m no where near to moving out or getting married. nor a serious boyfriend for that matter. so really.. no need to worry about picking things out too soon. haha. okay.. i’m sure i’ve told you this before but just reminding that you make my tuesdays very happy. :) love you and your gorgeous face.
Breanna - Oh Alyse. You sure do make me laugh with some of the things you say.. ARF to ARM.. sure is an upgrade hahah just brings me back to highschool days!!! I miss you, thanks for making me laugh!!!
