Black Friday Picture Day with Erin

I had a great Thanksgiving with Steve's family in Michigan.  He has a huge family, so it's always a blast.  Of course, the guys and a few of the ladies went out and shot clay pigeons while I kept an eye on our nieces inside.  I'm not big on shooting guns, but Steve enjoys it.  We had to rush home in the afternoon, so we could get home in time to go to bed early. 

On Black Friday, I had to be at work at 4am until 2pm and Steve had to work at 6am.  He is supposed to get off at 7, so he should be home soon.  We shall see if he gets off on time.  After work, I drove up Sears to see Steve and bought some presents for my Elfster exchange buddy.  I think she is really going to like them.  Now, Steve needs to decide what he wants to get her husband, so we can go shopping.  Then I went upstairs to the Photo Studio to see my sister.  She was bored and didn't have any appointments, so she took my picture.  I really like how they turned out.  I got a free 8 X 10 collage, no purchase necessary!  It was a win-win for both of us.  I got great fun pictures and my sister got a photo sit.

New Years 2007 - 2008

The original plan for New Years was to go to sleep around 8 and not get up for a long time. Plans changed though when Shere messaged me Monday afternoon and wanted to get together. It sounded like fun so we made some quick plans. Steve and I rushed home after work and cleaned up the apartment to make it child proof and party ready. The Radabaughs came over and we ate all kinds of food. I made Sloppy Joes and brownies and Shere brought some Hacienda chips and salsa, Logan's rolls, and some healthy snacks. We found some games and had some fun. Shere and I lost to Steve and Chris in Euchre but we beat them at Scrabble. It was fun. Poor miss Kariana wasn't feeling good so she slept most of the night. We tried to wake her up for the Ball Drop though. Cadence actually stayed up the whole night. She is just one bundle of energy.

Shortly after ball dropped, the Radabaughs headed home. It had snowed just a bit on New Years Eve so they had some fun driving home, I'm sure.

New Years Day was fun for Steve and I. We didn't really do anything at all day. It was one of those lazy days we haven't had in awhile. We sat around in our pajamas all day. It was great.

Today it's back to work. This morning was fun though because Steve had to dig our car out so I could go to work. We are supposed to get more snow today too. Today is also Shere's Birthday!!! Happy Birthday Shere!

Honeymoon in San Diego: May 5th - May 11th

Honeymoon in San Diego

Our Honeymoon started on Saturday night at a Bed and Breakfast in Michigan. We flew into San Diego on Monday morning.

Our Honeymoon was wonderful. It was absolutely beautiful. Neither one of has ever been to California so we chose San Diego for our vacation. It was a very relaxing vacation too. We originally didnt get a Ocean View room but when we got to the hotel they had upgraded us to an Ocean View room for free. We spent most of the days walking up and down the beach. There was a boardwalk along the beach with little shops and resturants. We did some jumping in the waves too. We water felt really nice. It wasn't really that cold. The weather was warm and sunny the whole week we were there. Steve and I ate Calimari for the first time at one of the beach resturants. It was actually good. I never would have guessed that it was going to be good.

Thursday, we drove around the city and stopped at the Historic District of San Diego. It celebrated the Mexican history of the city. We ate at the best Mexican resturant I have ever been too. The food was great.

I hope you enjoy the pictures. The last night I watched the Sun Set over the Pacific Ocean. The pictures were taken for our Hotel balcony.

Bridal Shower: Sunday, April 22, 2007

My sister and my best friend, Shere throw me a Bridal Shower at my parent's house last Sunday. It was some good times. I'm not used to being the center of attention. It was fun to see a bunch of my friends hanging out together. Shere brought her girls and so did Carole, so Kariana got to make some new friends. We had a cookout lunch with some hamburgers and hotdogs and such. Shere and Erin had everybody play some games then I opened presents. My sister thought it would be fun if I wore a string on head as a tiara. My Grandma made us a handmade blanket. The blanket is really soft. It was a beautiful day to be outside. I went on a short walk around the block with Kariana after most of the guests had left. I hope my wedding day is as nice as it was Sunday.
Here are some fun pictures. It was a good time.
