Angela's Wedding - 09/27/08

Last night my family went to a friend of the family's wedding. It was kind of weird because she used to babysit us when my sisters and I were little. Now she is getting married and it proves that we all are getting old. The only word to describe the wedding was elegant. Just beautiful. She made everything her self. The party favors, the invites, the programs, etc.

They had this photo booth set up out in the lobby of the club house. Every guest took their picture. You could get as many as 15 they said but we had 8 and that was pushing it. What you did was take 4 pictures. You got a copy and the printed out a copy for the couple. As you were waiting for your picture to be developed you wrote a little note to the bride and groom. It was then attached to the picture and the company will put a scrapbook together for with the pictures and the note. I thought that was the cutest idea. I would imagine that it cost a pretty penny though. Also in a week the guest can go online and actually order their pictures if they really liked it.

(That is not my whole family in the picture. We are with another family that we grew up with.)

Twilight - The Movie

This is the trailer for Twilight. I am really excited to see it. I am bummed that this movie is only the first book. That means a lot of waiting for the other 3. Hopefully there is 3 more. I am confused on the release date. On Stephenie Meyers website and Fandango it says 11.21.08 but on the poster at the theater it is 12.12.08. I am hoping for November because it is closer.

The Countdown is On!!

Only 8.5 hours to go!! I can't wait. This is the only show that I am addicted to. The question of the season is...Will Grey and McDreamy get married or should I say, stay together?? (I hope so!!)

This Past Weekend

On Saturday night, we went to the truck races out at the speedway. We tailgates before with hot dogs and hamburgers. That's the way to do it so you miss all the traffic coming in. The races were fun. I had never been to a race prior to this. It was a really close finish so it was worth waiting until the end. After the race they had a firework show but we were in such a rush to beat the traffic out that I didn't get to watch it.

Early, early, early Sunday morning (5:00am to be exact) we went to the Balloon-a-Palooza. We got there early so that we could watch the hot air balloons blow up and take off. I tell you getting a hot air balloon blown up is quite the chore or at least it looked like it. Every balloon was different and there was at least 20 balloons. They also had a whole bunch of booths set up with different kinds of food. There was carnival rides, carnival games, and the traditional corn dog, funnel cakes, and cotton candy.

3 Down and 1 To Go

Just a "twilight" update...


So I just finished this one. This one was a little harder for me to get through this one. I skipped a few parts through out but it wasn't bad by all means. The end though was worth the read and definitely leaves you hanging for the 4th one. I am excited to get started with this one. I am a little worried because it is a bit longer and like I said I don't read much but I am excited. We shall see...

Say Goodbye to Brace Face!

Tarin has been waiting for this day for 2 years. This morning the braces came off! She looks so much older to me. In honor of this day, I dedicated a special video to her. See the video below.
