Eric's calling

Some time back, Eric gave me a "tattoo". (Look back to the beginning of this blog to see it.) He drew a lovely tattoo on me and it was then I thought he may have a calling as a tattoo artist. Today, I was lucky enough to get another one of his works. I wasn't sure what kind of tattoo I was getting until he was done but it was a lovely surprise when I finally saw it.

Just to say I did something...

I haven't posted in a while again...Tonight Eric and I celebrated Christmas together. Since the next week will be busy with family events, we decided to stick with tradition and do a Christmas with just the two of us. (Last year as you may remember, my present was my engagement ring!!) This year, Eric got me a new digital camera that is waterproof! I'm so excited to take it with us on our honeymoon!!!
Here's a picture of Eric and I in front of the tree being silly.

Thanksgiving....I celebrate for a few weeks

Lets just pretend that I've been celebrating Thanksgiving for the past few weeks and that's why I'm just now posting pictures from it...Actually, with the same excuse as every other post lately, I have been swamped. School is getting very busy with only a couple of weeks left so with that and my attempts at wedding planning...there hasn't been much time left over. I am happy to report that I spent last weekend devoted to wedding planning! Mom and I shopped all weekend for decorations and reception supplies and while it didn't seem like we actually came home with a lot of goodies, I feel much better about my plans so far. I talked to the flower and cake ladies and got some things picked out. I also have a pretty solid idea about what I want to do for my reception decorations...although completing them is now going to be the big task. (Wish me luck!) Anyway, I am going to post a few pictures from Thanksgiving week as well as from the other night when we decorated our Christmas tree.
Happy birthday Brady! We got to celebrate Brady's 1st birthday the day before Thanksgiving.

Eric and Tessa. It had been a while since Eric had seen Tessa and she'd grown quite a bit!

You can tell we really dressed for the evening of Christmas decorating. :) At least the tree looks good!!
