hello december

i'm looking forward to,

seeing christmas lights everywhere

reuniting with friends i haven't seen for awhile

watching christmas movies (elf) all month long

hearing christmas music everywhere I go

cuddling with the hubs by our christmas tree

attending a friends wedding

wrapping presents

spending time with family

watching a dear friend take her final steps to prepare for her mission

sipping hot chocolate

it's going to be a fantastic month

pictures.

it pays to have a best friend that is a professional photographer!
abby and i met at a bridal fair right after shane and i got engaged and we just clicked.
she did all of our pictures; engagements, bridals, and wedding day. she's amazing!
these are just a few favorites from some pictures she took for us for the fall.
and don't forget to go check her out here! she's fantastic. seriously!

life according to my phone

happy day of thanks!

i am thankful for,

a husband who loves me unconditionally,
pumpkin pie,
family. both blood and in-laws,
laughter,
friends who care,
my entertaining tv shows,
& blessings.

happy halloween.

although i'm not much of a halloween fan, i do believe the best part about the holiday is the candy corn and other chocolate goodness! i hope everyone has a fantastic halloween and eats way too much sugar.

happy wednesday

- shane and i went to the RSL game last night. it was cold and rainy. 

and they didn't advance in the tournament even though they played really well. dang it.

- ellen cracks me up.

- my newest obsession: mario cart for the wii.

- we have just become parents to 5 fishies: atticus, lola, mozy, neil, and houdini. and 1 frog: stewart.

 - i am beginning to enjoy having my fingernails painted all of the time.

- target is a black hole and always seems to take my money.

- greys anatomy and gossip girl are going to be the death of me.

- salt city candles. mmmmm!
