Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas from our happy, and tattoo proud Family! 

This Christmas was the most insane Christmas I have ever experienced. We celebrated at five different houses, not including our own. Additionally, we were blessed by having a very large family and that puts a lot of people on the "To Give" list. Don't get me wrong, I love giving presents, but it takes a lot of stress and time and money to cover everyone and I have kind of decided that it takes the fun out of the holiday and distracts  from the importance of the holiday as well. I'm not sure where I stand on the birth of Christ aspect, but Christmas is about family and spending time with those you hold dear to your heart. 

It's been awhile. . . again

Hello readers, I hope you are still there! I took a little break from the blog, life was more than a bit hectic and I had some personal things going on that left me little energy for anything. I hope to turn this blog into a regular thing again, I love blogging and I really have missed it. Now to catch you up! (well on the big things at least)

Cordelia has gotten A LOT bigger: 

 Three months

Four Months

 

Five Months

 

Six Months

 

Seven Months

She can crawl, eat mushy foods, sit up by herself, pull herself up to stand and says "mama" and "dada"! It's amazing, and the time has gone by so fast it's a blur. 

We attended two absolutely beautiful weddings. The first was for one of my old time friends and her prince charming. The wedding was at Bordeleau Winery, such a beautiful venue! The amazing photos below are  care of their photographer. It was Brendon and my first night away from Cordelia, but we had such a great time, and Ashley and Brandon are such fun people (as I'm sure you can see from the picture below! ).

The second wedding was for our mutual friends Tuan and Camila. I was honored to be in the wedding party. They had such beautiful weather and the people at their venue, Bretton Woods, were wonderful.  These beautiful photos were taken by an awesome photographer I know- check him out here. There will probably be a longer post about this wedding later :)

 We wore super cool shoes

Camila's Brother married them, it was very heartfelt

We played in the photo booth :)

We were able to rejoice in our third anniversary of this day:

We celebrated our first Halloween! As a Rainbow, a leprechaun, and a pot of gold. 

Well... those were the biggest things, I have a ton of other little things to catch you up with later, but for now I will leave you and go back to my horrible holiday to do list! Yikes
