It's that time of year!

Just when you thought we couldn't celebrate more things with friends.....we can! It's just that time of year when exciting things are happening. Or maybe it's our stage of life because these kinds of things happen ALL throughout the year :) Anyway, here are some fun things that we celebrated recently.

I helped throw a baby shower for Courtney and Ryan with the other Buckhead Church Waumba Land ladies and it was so fun! It was Ryan's first shower, so that was pretty amusing as well :) They got a lot of great things for baby Ryder, due at the end of the month!
I saw this great idea on Pinterest and our cousin, Samantha, was awesome enough to make one for us that was personalized for Ryder! Basically, it's a fingerprint tree. Everyone who was at the shower put their fingerprint on the tree to make leaves. It will be the perfect addition to the nursery.
This was also a fun little thing I saw online. It's basically a book of wishes for the baby! Everyone at the shower filled out these cards with all kinds of wishes for Ryder and then we put it into a little book. 
This is what the pages on the inside look like. It was really sweet to read what everyone wrote...You can get the template HERE in gray, blue, brown, or yellow.
We also went to an engagement party for Lisa and Jonathan! Lisa was my college roommate and I am going to be a bridesmaid in their March 2012 wedding. It was fun to celebrate this wonderful time in their lives and catch up with good friends.
Our cousin, Loren, got married on October 29th and they had their rehearsal dinner at this beautiful location. It overlooked a lake and was so serene and lovely.
The Willis boys with their dad. Missing Tim (he was the best man in another wedding that weekend and couldn't be there.) 
Me and Calley with our awesome mother-in-law, Marcie!

The beautiful bride.
The ceremony room. It was so simple and beautiful. They did a really great job with it.

Reception! So pretty.
Their first dance. I love the draped cloth on the ceiling. It looked so good with the lights.
The most delicious wedding cake ever. They also had an ice cream bar, which was super fun!

Me and Michal
Hubby
Loren, we love you! We are so excited for this new journey for you and Paul!
