Wish Bone

So whose wish comes true when your wish bone breaks into three pieces?

I think that both of our wishes have come true this year :)

Get A ROOM!

And that's the way they stayed for about 30 minutes. Pathetic isn't it?

Thanksgiving '09

So this year for Thanksgiving Kevin and I were going to spend the day feasting at his grandma's house. And then I got sick. Like really sick. Like I've went through 3 boxes of Puff's sick. Not wanting to share this disease with anyone else I have put myself on lockdown. Basically, I haven't left the house in 4 days (except when I tried to go to work, which only lasted a few hours before I was back on the couch).

I think this may have been a test to see how Kevin and I handle the pressure of a holiday all by ourselves. In my opinion, we did really well. Actually, all the credit should go to Kevin... he made the turkey.

Following Ina Garten's recipe...

Dinner time!! I actually managed to get my butt off the couch, take a shower, and put on real clothes. That lasted about 20 minutes and the "comfies" went back on.

HEY! It's Thanksgiving!! Stretch pants welcome.

He looks full, doesn't he?

Following dinner I beat Kevin's butt at a few games of Sequence and then we curled up and watched "The Ugly Truth." Given the circumstances I think we passed the 'holiday' test!

Happy Holidays!! :)

The Big 5-0!!

This is a little late... but better than never...

Happy Birthday to a lady that doesn't look a day over 30!!! Love you Mom!!

Cone

So here is what Kevin and I have been living with for the last week...

Willy has been licking this spot on his front paw until it became infected. The vet said most dogs get over the cone within 24 hours... we are still waiting for Willy to get over it and almost a week has passed. It is pretty sad (slash a little entertaining) to watch him with it on. He has a hard time figuring out how to chew on bones, he runs into doorways and has chipped the paint off the walls, and he can't enjoy his usual snacks. Poor guy!!! Only one more week to go and it is back to normal.

Registration Day!!!

Well, that is what Kevin likes to call it anyway. We actually took a little time on Saturday night to register at Macys... or Mecca, as I like to call it. I must say, for any of you soon-to-be-brides, I highly suggest registering at Macys. They have everything you could possibly ever need, their process is second to none, and they offer reward, after reward, after reward. We had a lot of fun putting together our china, linens, bedding... even Kevin got into it. It seems like a selfish act, picking out gifts that people should buy for you, but I guess if you are going to buy something you might as well buy something we like, huh? :)

After registering we celebrated checking another thing off our list by having a couple of drinks at Chianti Grill in Burnsville. This is one of our favorite places to eat... and drink. They have amazing bloody mary's and a relaxing atmosphere. 9 times out of 10 it is where we end up on our date nights!

Cheers!!

Details, Details

Our cake topper is ordered!! Even the details are starting to come together. With a lot of the big decisions made it is now time to put our personal touches on everything. I have turned my attention to etsy and craigslist for help. We appreciate any suggestions you may have!!

Sneak Peak!!

Our wedding photographer, Kim Williams, posted a little sneak peak of our engagement session!! Check out the link below!! We had such a fun time taking these pictures... at first it is a little awkward having someone take pictures of you while you make out but I think we did better as the day went on. We can't wait to see the rest!!
