My Bachelorette Party

Where do I even begin......My bridesmaids did an AMAZING job planning a spectacular bachelorette weekend for me. We started the day by heading to downtown San Diego (the Gaslamp District) to the Andaz Hotel. We ate lunch at TGI Fridays and of course made wonderful memories. Then we partied in the room before going to sushi for dinner and bar hopping for the night. I had many tasks to accomplish and had a great time completing them all ;) To top off my amazing night we headed to the top of our hotel then met up with my soon to be hubby to finish partying in the room. I slept in my king bed with 3 of my best friends and shared special moments with all my girls to make for a beautiful weekend!! Heres just a few of the pictures I can share ;)

The new Mr & Mrs

December 10th, 2011 was a gorgeous day. The sun was shining and the air was filled with love for our special day. Everything was perfect, I cannot even begin to express the joy I felt on this amazing day. Here are just a few of the pictures. Please enjoy :)

T-MINUS 22 DAYS!

I cannot believe that in 22 days I will be walking down the aisle! I am SO excited! Justin and I have been blessed with such loving friends and family who have helped along the way and given some amazing items, advice, and encouragement to begin our lives as a married couple! We are so thrilled to share our special day with all our friends and family!

On a side note, I have been fortunate to been spoiled with 5 bridal showers. All my hosts did a wonderful job and I was so happy to see all those who made it extra special by attending. I cannot wait to post pictures and show you all the amazingness that occurred!

Wedding Day Approaching Fast

Well 2 showers down, 3 more to go....we are 1 month and 22 days away from the BIG day :)

My mom and I have been very busy working and planning. We spent one Friday night decorating the ring bearer pillow and card box. I LOVE them, they are so beautiful, and we included heirloom pieces on each to make them more personal.

Justin and I have our entertainment meeting this Friday to set the music and go over the day of timeline. Then on the 30th we meet with our officiant, my cousin Kelly, and that is the date of my 3rd shower. I got my invites to my last 2 showers, and the handmade invites are absolutely gorgeous.

On another AMAZING note, I got my dress!!!! It fit perfectly- fortunately my bridesmaid Kamila was able to zip me in it! Unfortunately, I had to leave my dress to get hemmed (even though I got it made hollow to hem so it should have fit perfect but it was too long). So I go Wednesday to get measured and then hopefully get my dress shortly after.

It seems like there is SO much to do and not enough time in the day.

Time to get Serious!

Well today marks the 4 month mark for our wedding- I cannot wait!! BUT this means it's time to get serious about losing weight and looking hot in my wedding dress. So last night I met with a mom from the studio who is amazing for helping me set my goals of eating healthy and exercising regularly... I start Saturday :/

The plan is to eat every 3 hours- protein, vegetables, and healthy fats, drink AT LEAST 60oz of water, and incorporate vitamins and exercise. I know I can do it (especially since Justin is so amazing and is going to do it with me)! I will keep you posted with any smart recipes or ideas that have worked!

Moving Day!

Justin and I took a huge step this week...we moved into our own apartment- together! Wednesday Justin and Andrew (his brother) moved all his stuff out of his old place and got a sofa and bedroom set from his parents (Yay thank you so much!) Thursday was our official move in date and fortunately Andrew and Tim (my friends husband) helped us move!! They were so fast and wonderful that we were very lucky to have their help. And of course my parents were a godsend, my mom organized the whole kitchen and helped us with the layout of furniture and my dad has helped with building furniture and our TV dilemma. I say dilemma because we have unsuccessfully tried TWO wall mounts for Justin's 40" TV. Friday was our shopping date (Sam's Club, Walmart and Bed Bath and Beyond). We had TWO carts at Sam's and a full cart at Walmart ;) We are not done unpacking but we have furniture, clothes, and food; but there is still more we need!
