A whole lot going On

It's been quite a while since I have last posted. I've had a lot of wedding plans to worry about, but things are falling in to place. The wedding is 71 days away!

Let's see.....recently I played SingStar for PS2 at a friends house, and immediately purchased the game on my way back up to Milwaukee. I LOVE this game so much....I bought the AMPED version, and I ordered the ROCKS version which should be arriving tomorrow actually. I LOVE singing, and this game is so much fun.

Tonight

Karyn is coming up and we are having dinner at Libiamo so that she can check out our wedding venue. We are then going to go through some of my wedding stuff so that we get some more planning done!

This weekend

Tomorrow is our first Cake Tasting at Simma's for the wedding, so we are both looking forward to that. Then we are going to the Admiral's game and Goo Goo Dolls concert, so that should be fun. We also are going to order our wedding bands, so we can cross that off our list of things to do. I am hoping to get more organized this weekend and create a timelime of stuff we have left to do.... can't believe it's only 3 months and 1 week away!

Christmas Cards

This is probably my favorite time of year, because I actually get mail that is not JUNK or bills.
Last night I hit the jackpot.....6 Christmas Cards on one day! I was like a kid in a candy store when we checked the mail last night......oh the Excitement!! And all my beautiful cards are hanging on display in our dining room....to enjoy every time i walk past them! I LOVE getting christmas cards probably even more than I enjoy getting gifts!!! There's just something about them :-)

It's that time of year

Christmas Cookies!!

This year I am not getting as carried away as I did last year ( I think i did about 8 different kinds)....I just dont' have the time for it. So I am sticking to 3 different kinds of cookies: Oatmeal Chocolate Chip, Snickerdoodles, and Gingerbread
I'll begin my baking tomorrow!

The Nutcracker Ballet

Last year Michael and I took my Grandma to see The Nutcracker, and it was my first time seeing it. We decided to make it into a tradition and see it every year so this past Sunday we went again with some friends. I truely LOVE this performance and I can't wait until my niece is old enough so we can take her to the show. IF you haven't seen it I highly recommend it. The music and the performers are amazing. What a wonderful way to start of the holiday season!!

New York

What can I say? New York was exactly what I pictured it would be.....LOTS and LOTS of walking, which reminds me how LAZY everyone here in Milwaukee is....I mean how often do you get upset when you can't find a close parking spot? In New York, you walk everywhere! So I definately got some great excercise while i was there. I got to see all the touristy spots: Rockefeller Center, Times Square (which was nuts), China Town, The Met, SoHo, Central Park, and many more! Here's a few pics.
