Wierd Weekend!

So, this was a super weird weekend for me. Last week my mom and I decided that we were going to leave pregnant Belle with my dad and we were going shopping at The Peddlers Show in Rosenberg, TX. My plans were for my mom to just come pick me up on the way since I was in College Station and it's between Temple and Rosenberg, then I would stay in Temple for the rest of the weekend and ride home with my brother since Belle was supposed to have her puppies on Sunday and I wanted to see them.

Friday morning, my dad was text messaging me asking me all these crazy questions about what my day schoolwise was like and what time I got done with classes that day. This was really wierd and I was wondering what was going on. Not long after I got a picture message from my mom with a picture of three little puppies. Belle had her puppies Thursday night and they weren't going to tell me; that way I wouldn't be distracted from school. Me and Austin quickly changed our plans and headed to Temple Friday afternoon.

We met Mom, Dad, HB, Jordan, Justin, Jayci and Jackson at BJs for dinner. Then we headed to the house to play with the puppies. The puppies are the cutest things I've ever seen!!! They are so precious and tiny. I held them as much as I could in my short visit. Saturday me and Mom went to The Peddler Show and got some good Christmas shopping done. Saturday night for my dad's birthday, he opened presents and then we went out to eat at Mr. Gatti's. That night late we got a phone call that Karla, my cousin, had her baby, TWO WEEKS EARLY! After church today we went and ate lunch at Olive Garden, went downtown to vote, and headed to the hospital to see the baby. It is a Boy, Jack Whitmire Neidhart. He weighed 7lbs and 7ozs. He is a beautiful baby!! Im so glad I got to be there to see him while I was in town.

All in all, it was a wonderful weekend, wierd, but wonderful. Belle having puppies 2 days early, and Karla having her baby 2 weeks early. Now here come my 4 tests this week, and I have TONS of studying to do!

Save The Date

Well we officially have all the save the date magnents in and the cards to send with them and the will be going out soon. I hope everyone loves them; I think they are super cute! We have frantically been trying to get all the people's addresses that we want to be at the wedding, and it is hard to get eveyone to their computers to respond. I think we pretty much have all the addresses we need and we can finally send them out!

School today was a long day. Having two field trips and more cancelled classes last week made me real lazy and this week is going to feel super long. I have been doing pretty well in my classes. I should be where I need to be with grades and I should meet my goal of graduating in December. I would be so upset if this didnt work out. It would ruin all my plans.
I cant believe October is almost over. Next Thanksgiving, and then CHRISTMAS! I cannot belive how time is flying. It is just unbelievable. Me and my mom are headed to Houston next weekend to attend the Peddlers Show to do a little early Christmas shopping. It is going to be so much fun. Also next weekend, Belle should be having her puppies and hopefully they will have enough personality for me to pick my puppy out.

I have been talking to my dad a lot lately about my shark. (For those of you who dont know, I caught a shark when we went to Florida, and I sent it off to get mounted.) We decided to get it as a ceiling mount where it can hang from the ceiling and have the whole shark. I figured one day when me and Austin get a house, we want to have a pool table and hang the shark over it.

Crazy School

Today is the end of a crazy few weeks. I have a few crazy weeks ahead of me as well. I've been trying to stay organized, I only have about 7 weeks left of school until I graduate. I am trying to stay focused on what I need to be doing for the next weeks to come. After Thanksgiving, I will no longer have Thursday classes and I think this is just what I need. My teachers on my Tuesday Thursday classes are taking a three week trip to Iraq to spread tourism there. We will not be meeting for my one class from the week before Thanksgiving until December 12th which is the date of the Final for the class. My other class will still meet the week before Thanksgiving and then after the holiday, we wont meet until December 10th for that final. My online class also gets done at the end of November so thats another class taken care of.

Austin and I have been trying to make decisions about the wedding, we finally decided on a first dance song, and reception gifts; I have decided on what I want my hair to look like and a starting look for my flowers. We still haven't decided on a color yet, so that makes it hard to find dresses for my bridesmaids. We are still trying to find a place for the Honeymoon!! We are pretty set on Maldives but we have not been able to find which place in Maldives we want. I will keep you updated when the details come about.

I had the pictures on here, but Austin did not think it was a good idea, so you will just have to wait for the wedding!!!!

Wedding Planning

I enjoy reading Mary Beth's blog so much that I decided that I would also do one to keep everyone posted on how the wedding planning is going so far. So, I'm in the middle of wedding planning at the moment. It has been pretty stressless at this point, but I know things will get crazy as the time passes and the wedding gets closer. During the summer while I was home with my mom, we got the church, reception place, rehersal dinner location, bridesmaids all set, groomsmen all picked, ushers, flowergirl, and ringbearer all decided. At a family party I revealed that my sister Jordan will be my Matron of Honor, Cousin Brittany and Cousin Mary Beth will both be bridesmaids, Jayci my Flowergirl, and Jackson as Ring Bearer.

Arielle later learned over the phone that she is a bridesmaid and will be singing in the wedding. I went and visited Paige and Catherine, some of my college friends and Kappa sisters, and they found out they will be joining the bridesmaid crew. Also while in Austin this weekend we went wedding dress shopping and found my dress and purchased it! Such an exciting event and I'm glad Paige and Catherine and my mom of course were there to share the experience with me. It was such a relief to finally decided and buy the dress of my dreams. Next on the list of things to do is to pick out our first dance song and honeymoon location.
