Wedding dresses!

This past weekend, Ben and I went to Priscilla of Boston to look at some wedding dresses. Ben actually agreed to go along (only because there is no one else down here to go with me) and had a good time. I found three dresses that I absolutely love. I was so excited about them that I called my mom and she is making a special trip down just to see the dresses! After she agreed to come, we decided to get Ben's mom, Lisa, in on the fun too. So the two of them are coming down for four days at the end of the month to visit and see the dresses! We also got tickets to go see a musical, The Young Frankenstein, at The Fox Theatre- we both think that our mom's will love it.

Lauren and Jeff are busy at home making home improvements, including a brand new bathroom (everything is new but the bathtub)! Dad and Brenda are busy at home keeping their businesses going and enjoying their winter in PA- skiing weather :o)

Ben's family is planning a visit in March to see a GA Tech basketball game and then again in May for Ben's graduation. I'm going home in February for my mom's birthday, and we're going to the spa... my first massage ever!

I miss everyone at home, but am so glad that I get a "surprise" visit from our mom's and have other planned visits in the future :o) I hope the next to plan a visit are my dad and Brenda, with Lauren and Jeff short to follow (hint hint) <3

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

We had a blast spending Christmas in PA. It went way too quckly of course, but we got to see almost everyone that we wanted to. We were very blessed by many wonderful gifts and lots of loving family members. Wrigley made the trip home with us on his first flight (he did great) and got to meet my family! They all loved him and we loved having him with us for Christmas. Ben and I decided to lay low, and spend new year's eve at home with Wrigley after going out for a lovely dinner, just the two of us. We had a great time :o) Now it's back to the grind on Monday! We miss everyone already, below are some pictures from the holiday festivities!
