Merry Christmas, Happy New Year...wedding in 30 days?!

Merry Christmas and Happy 2010! I havent blogged in forever! The holidays are a distraction for me, my apologies--especially this year since Joey was home :)

Christmas was great! Busy, but wonderful :) Christmas Eve we went to dinner with my moms side of the family and then back to her house for gifts. Joey and I decided to spend the night at my Moms that night--and it was so fun! My mom even got us all matching PJs! first year Ive ever done it and it was awesome! the next morning we woke up and opened gifts and santa gifts with her. my mom spoiled us as always! from there we went to Joeys parents for breakfast, then off to our house to shower, get ready, see the pups, and then head BACK to his parents for lunch with everyone. Peyton got tons of cool stuff, its always fun watching him open gifts :) we hung out over there for a while and then joey and i went to my dad's (next door!) to do christmas with him and his new fiance' Donna! so like I said, SUPER busy Christmas but a ton of fun! Heres a few pictures!

AND we even got to see My Payton :) Shes getting SO big! it was SO good to see her!



On Dec 22nd we had our work party for All American, and it turned out SO well! We met up at the boss man's condos for appetizers and some drinks, then walked down to Villa Christina for dinner,drinks,gift exchange,ect. I was happy with how it turned out since it was kinda my baby ;) everyone looked nice all dressed up and it was awesome to meet everyones SOs! Afterward my boss paid for us to get a hotel room, so it was a nice lil night out in ATL for Joey and I!






2010 is here!!!

For the new year we went with Lala and Alex to his parents house and hungout with his parents,sisters,Valdes,Lalas brother mom and aunt! we had a nice dinner, hungout and played Wii! THEN around 1130pm we turned off all the lights, lit candles, and brought the new year in with prayers, and a rosary. coolest thing ever. I prayed for my husband,for my marriage, for me to be the best wife I can be, thanking God for bringing Joey home to me safely, and for the best/worst year of my life! it was very emotional! I was wondering why they brought kleenex but I soon found out. it was moving to hear everyones different prayer, and I NEVER pray outloud so that was new for me! it was such a great way to bring in the New Year and Im so glad we did it. Afterward we poured the drinks and celebrated!!




Now things are finally winding down.... NOT! The wedding is in a month- JEESH! a month from today- and I feel like I still have a million things todo. the biggest thing = LOSING WEIGHT to make sure I fit into my dress! ah! Dieting like crazy, doing wii fit, drinking nothing but water, and stressing ha--hopefully that combo will help me drop some pounds. I want todo the wedding and its VERY important to us--Im just ready for it to GET here so I can enjoy hanging out with friends and family :)

Also, a new venture I've taken on! Becoming a BeautiControl Consultant :) Im still in training, I have a rally this saturday and more training on the 23rd so after that Ill be pushing it more. So be lookin out for that! Soon Ill have a link to my site on here, and updates/sale info for everyone :) I really love the product and really hope I do well selling it. I think itll be alot of fun, good way to meet new people, extra money wont hurt, and i LOVE the product! so be lookin for updates on that :) !

Thats really all thats goin on right now. Holidays were crazy but awesome, work is going great, new years was AWESOME, focusing on God through everything. (Claire got us an awesome devotional, we've been doing it every night and love it--Ill have to post it soon!)

I hope everyone's holidays were awesome! Hopefully I wont be so neglectful with blogging from now on but if I am just remember...WEDDING IN A MONTH. AH! pray for me haha!
