Recap

Holy Cow am I behind!!!! Lets see...I'm not going to give any excuses other than pure laziness, and ...I've become a facebook addict. Lets give a quick recap here....

October:

Flew by...school is good, we had a bridal shower with Dan's family at the end of the month. Everything was wonderful and I am truly grateful! Halloween, Dan and I went to see The Nightmare Before Christmas in 3D. It was pretty cool, for the half I stayed awake for, then I took a nap :)

November:

November 9th was my Ryan/Karner Bridal Shower hosted by Aunt Margie. Showers of Happiness, that was the theme. What a beautiful shower, I definitely can't complain. Aunt Margie pulled no punches and hosted a lovely day. Good food, perfectly themed decorations, clever favors. Molly and Mary helped their mom by setting everything up so nicely. It was beautiful!! Thanks to all for all their hard work and dedication for the perfect day for me.

November pretty much went by without any problems, school is school and can't end soon enough. We worked on getting all the invitations out which proved to be more stressful than I expected. We ordered 225 invitations, I decided that I loved the way they looked with printed envelopes. After about 10 invitations, I realized that maybe I didn't like that idea anymore, because I had to type each name and invite and load each envelope! Oh well....95% got typed and mailed with minimal errors....few wrong zip codes, couple upside down envelopes, some weird highlighting on one of them....but anyways. They all were mailed the Tuesday before Thanksgiving and we're already getting many back which is so very exciting! Every afternoon I run to the mailbox wondering "how many will come today? Are they coming? Will they make it?" It's totally fun now!!!!

Thanksgiving was different for me. Due to my work schedule, I have to work holidays, and so with having Turkey day off, we headed south to Dan's parents house for the weekend. It was quite different. Imagine, only 5 people total, instead of 60-70!!! Food was wonderful, company even better. It was a wonderful weekend, and I absoulutely cannot complain.

8th annual pub crawl was fun as always! Mainly the same faces a couple new ones. Lots of fun had by all....









December:
December rolled in with snow and bitter cold. School is wrapping up for the semester...Thank God! Final is 12/15 and cannot get here soon enough. This past Wednesday the girls from work hosted yet another bridal shower for me and it was lovely. Lots of laughs, lots of fun, Thanks Mere for giving up your house and cooking all that wonderful food!!!

I know how it feels to get behind on here. I have become addicted to facebook too!
