my celestial week

As my dad so kindly put it! I was so excited today in sacrament meeting when I found this out, Andrew had to muffle my excitement. So, with our tithing settlement sheet came two sheets with Andrew and mine's church information. It showed when I was sealed to my parents, baptized, endowed, and married. I know the last three dates easily, especially my baptism because it was my birthday (April 1), but check the rest out:

Sealed to my parents : 24 April (1992)
Endowed:   25 April (2008)
Married:  26 April (2008)

This will now and forever be known as my celestial week, as I told my dad, I expect presents!

photoshoots...

Can be so much fun sometimes! I had a bridal shoot today, and you would never be able to tell by the pictures that it was below 30 degrees! The bride was beautiful, and pretended to be warm the whole time! I can't wait to go through them all, I'm actually pretty excited to edit these! I also want to get them finished before the wedding I have next week, and oh ya, finals!

Thankful {very}

I am so thankful that Andrew, Chuck, and I were able to go back to Virginia for Thanksgiving! It was so great to spend time with our family and close friends. 
I got to watch Andrew and Andrew (my brother and my husband) play in the Turkey Bowl Thanksgiving morning. We ate a ton, mom did a great job with dinner, and Nicole's rolls were beast as always! Anna pulled her tooth out right in front of me, which made me kind of sick, but it's all good because I love her. We learned how to play an awesome new game, Mafia, with some great friends and I am dying to play it again! Andrew drug me, mom, and MaryBeth out at midnight for black friday shopping. It was all good until at about 1 am it started pouring rain! I was totally satisfied with our boot find, buy one pair get two free! (sweet I know!) 
Mom took us all shopping for some new clothes which we are in much need for. I think I have almost cycled through and passed down all my clothes from high school to MaryBeth. Saturday night we all went to Buffalo Wild Wings where practically every mormon in Williamsburg showed up for the BYU vs Utah game. BYU won, of course! 
My favorite time was playing scum and eating M&Ms with the family though. Surprisingly, mom never became the scummie! It was a long weekend packed full of fun, it went by way too fast, broke my heart to leave, but I would do it all over again. Now, I have forgotten all my french, am dreading the tests and projects I have due before finals, but before I know it we'll be in Virginia again!

Here is a pic I stole from a session Nicole did for us. It's bright but I like it like that, I think we look like angels! Thanks Mom & Dad for bringing us home! We love you!!!

Jake {missionary!}

Today Chuck and I dropped off Jake McClain at the MTC. He's going on his mission to Columbia, not sure which mission though. He was very relaxed, which surprised me because if that were me, I'd be freaking out! But he was very excited about getting there, he had some flight delays so he was the only missionary being dropped off when we got there. The lady at the front desk said, "OK say you're goodbyes and come with me." Two handshakes later, he started his mission, and I am sure he's going to do great!

guess what!

I did it, I actually did it. I ate SALAD. I haven't eaten salad for at least 10, I dare say 15 years. The last time I ate it, I got sick, so I never wanted to eat it again. Over further evaluation, I decided I needed more greens in my life. Well, I am quite proud of myself. (I took the little stems off the leaves, why would you eat those?!?)

reason #217

Of why I love Andrew. He consistently eats the same thing for breakfast: small cup of orang juice, toasted bagel with cream cheese, various piece of fruit, and yogurt. Well, I noticed a little pink piece of foil on top of the microwave. It was a yogurt top for the breast cancer foundation. I asked him about it and he said he planned on sending it in because the company would donate 10 cents for each top. I kinda brushed it off, he is sometimes forgetful, good hearted but forgetful. Today I noticed it had really started piling up! He is such a sweet man, he loves helping other people even in the smallest ways. I love him, and this is just one more reason!
