They Grow So Fast...

It's hard to believe that it was only a few weeks ago Kevin and I noticed that our pond geese had babies!! Here is a picture of them only a few days old:

And now... they are getting SO big!!! I can't believe it. I hadn't seen them for a few days between my busy schedule and the rain. Here's a picture of them today:

They grow up so fast... =)

Hair Trial

I went yesterday for a trial-run for my wedding updo. I've NEVER gone anywhere or paid anyone to style my hair. All through high school, (I went to every dance) my sister always styled my hair (and did a fabulous job!). So, I decided... for my wedding... I am going to spend money to get my hair done. Here's how it turned out after 1 hour, lots of hairspray, and 70 bobby pins:

I LOVE it!!! I think she did a great job! Can't wait for July... =)

Ugh...

Engagement Photos

We're going on Saturday!

I'll post next week...

Oh my...

I just realized how long it's been since I've been on here!! I guess I've just had sooooo much going on! Part of that 'busy-ness' was going to Pittsburgh for my niece's (my Goddaughter!) baptism. The other parts are work and wedding planning!

Piper and I:

Hopefully I'll start to update more often...

Stockings

This past weekend, my family went out to visit my sister (One Star Away) for Christmas. A few weeks ago, she made some adorable stockings for Jake, Zoey, & the new baby (due any time now). I liked them for many reasons: they were personalized, not 'typical' Christmas stockings, and all of them were handmade and hand-embroidered. So... I decided to make my own! This year, Kevin and I just used stockings that I had from years past. Lisa showed me how to start and I took off from there. It only took me a few hours, too! I am very happy with how they turned out. (Kevin must be, also. He hung them as soon as we got back!)


This one is mine:This one is Kevin's:

Okay, okay... so pink and aqua are not really Christmas colors, but I love them! They were so fun to make (and easy!). Thanks Lis!
