 Our friend and talented photographer Amelia took some pictures of us on our anniversary. She blogged them on her photography blog yesterday and I thought I would share them with you all!

I know we are dorks, but I loved the idea of going back to where we got married and having pictures done a year later. It was so much fun! I am glad we have these. I hope we can do a photo of our family every year on our anniversary!

Sneak Peak of Engagments

We took our engagement pictures this weekend. Carli from Inked Fingers posted a few of them up on Facebook. Here is just a teaser:

 

 

 

 

Hope you guys like them. There will be more to follow! Thank you again Carli for all of your hard work and taking the time to take these wonderful pictures! 

Cleaning Update

So ladies I told you Monday that I had a lot of stuff to do this week. Little did I know that all the planning the world would not have prepped me for all the work I have done this week. I not only have gotten all the cleaning (except for the pantry organizing) done. I have also returned all the possible table setting items and settles on linins for thanksgiving. I got them all from BBB and think we picked a good one. I like that I can use it all fall and not just for thanksgiving. Here is what it looks like:

(Sorry no pictures)

I have also prepped all of the food for tonight’s birthday party for WF. He is turning 28 so he is feeling a bit “old”. To help combat this I have planned quite a few surprises for him and our friends and I am hoping to make him feel like a kid once again. Some of the highlights include a cupcake bar and guitar hero tournament on our Wii. There is a theme for the night but I want to keep it a surprise for my guests so I will unveil it with pictures next week. But it is awesome!

This weekend I will be cleaning the house once again after the party and then doing a HUGE grocery shopping trip for Thanksgiving. I am hoping that I can go early Sunday morning before anyone else gets up and just get it done.

Then the best part of the weekend, our engagement pictures! Woo Whoo!  We have not settled on all of our locations just yet but I am looking forward to getting to know Carli better as well as getting to spend some time making out with WF! I am really excited because I think I have finalized what I am wearing, barring any additions my girlfriends might make tonight at the party.

I can’t wait to share them all with you guys! Hope you have a great weekend!

Booked My Photographer

Ladies and Gentleman we have booked our photographer! We are going to be using InkedFingers and I am so excited. I think she is going to really be able to capture our day. I look at my friends pictures who have used her and I just know if she can make Wonderful Fiance and I look half that good I will be so happy.

She was my first big splurge of the wedding shopping process but I am sure she will not be the last. I am already thinking about doing a really awesome boudoir shoot with her! I got to see some of the pictures she took that she cant post on the site and they are amazing. Oh my! I don't think I will ever be this skinny and this well kept again, might as well immortalize it right!? We will see I am thinking about it though.

Yeah for me! I am happy!
