I'm thankful for....

It's amazing how quickly time flies once the holidays arrive. My sincerest apologies for not updating the blog in so long. I've received many complaints and so I'll try my best to raise my grade from failing to passing with flying colors. :-)

Matt and I are doing well, although flying by the seat of our pants. In the midst of our busy life we decided to push the limit by travelling to Ohio for the Michigan/Ohio State game the weekend of the 17th...

and then turn around three days later and drive back to Ohio for Thanksgiving. Insantity!

The Buckeyes played a great game, BTW, and we were glad we went home. The energy flowing in the city was incredible. No, we didn't actually get to go to the game... but it was the next best thing. Rachel got to come along and the best part was... we built a leaf pile!!!! It was so much fun.
Thanksgiving was really nice, althought Matt spent a lot of it studying for law school. But we made the most of it and and Matt was sure to spend some time wrestling with my little cousins in the leaves.

While we were home my Mom and I were able to tackle some wedding details and also decorate the house for Christmas. The weather, though, has been absolutely so warm that it doesn't even feel like Christmas. Gosh!


Coming back after the holiday was kinda hard, but it was nice to get back in the groove of daily life. Matt finished his last day of classes yesterday, so it will be nice to have him around for a month or two. We're looking forward to taking care of some wedding details that have been ignored for too long. And yes, I know many of you want to hear our engagement story... I will post it soon. I want to do it justice when I do, so I guess that's why I've been procrastinating.

We finially found a reception place! The Middleburg Community Center will be our location for the great affair. I am really looking forward to that day and know I will see many of you there.

I need to run, but I will try and update again soon.

  2. Another friends reception was at the MCC and it was gorgeous so you will be very happy there. And the garden out the side is beautiful for pictures, too. Parking is an interesting challenge but not altogether a stumbling block given the other benefits of the local. I'm hoping to make it out for the happy event!
