Wedding Season

My time lately is devoted to WEDDINGS, both Leah's and MINE! Oh yeah, I got engaged recently on June 9, 2011. =) So, I can officially start planning...more to come.

For now, the focus is on LEAH! We have now completed 5/6 showers: Center Church, Mt. Olivet, Norton family, lingerie, and "honey-do". The Jacks family shower is coming up in a few weekends. Leah and Dusty have received SO many gifts. It has been so much fun to sit by her side at each shower and write down the gifts as she receives them. I look forward to getting all of these items set up in their home.

Like I said previously, I have been so overwhelmed by the amount of love that has been shown to Leah and Dusty. I didn't get pictures from all the showers, but they were all very pretty and fun, especially the lingerie shower! Brooke and I threw the lingerie shower and it was a Luau theme. We had lots of fun games and a super-cute cake! The handyman shower for Dusty was also very fun. It was a couples shower at Dusty's dad's house. All of the men were very jealous of all the gifts!

Until their house is ready, Leah and Dusty are storing their gifts at Mamaw and Papaw's. They have completely filled a bedroom and still have more to go. They are currently in the process of re-doing the home (before and after pictures to come). They have completed all the painting (inside and out) and are now finishing up the floors.

In the meantime, July 16th, 2011 is getting SO close! I can't believe it is already almost here! I know that everything will turn out beautifully.

Also in the meantime, I am ENGAGED!!!!!! So, yes, I am also planning a wedding for October 29, 2011! I already had many ideas in mind so I can start planning. At this point, I have already booked a photographer (Mrs. Terri Willett), and chosen bridesmaids/groomsmen. I am also very excited that we have already ordered and received the bridesmaids dresses. AND I have already started registering at Dillards and Walmart. Whew! There is so much to do, but I look forward to this fun new chapter of my life! Can't wait to post pictures of Leah's wedding!
