August 2009

August was here before I knew it!!!! And it was CRAZY BUSY!!!! And because there was so much that happened, the events of August will posted seperately. It all started with a trip to Minnesota...when we got back our wedding invites went out...and the month ended with three bridal showers!!! This post will be about all the little happenings.

My aunt, uncle, and cousins came through Stillwater to visit....and meet Ken. I was so excited to see them!!!! They used to live in Tulsa and my aunt was my voice teacher while they were there! I just LOVE them!!!! We enjoyed the afternoon with them.

Our Minnesota trip came and went (stay tuned for pictures and a post for that by itself), and when we got home...it was close to my birthday. Mom and dad came to Stillwater to bring the dogs to us (they kept them while we were gone) and to celebrate my birthday. We went to TX Roadhouse and told them the details from the trip. That same week, Kenny and I celebrated my birthday with a trip to OKC. I had a dress fitting and he had a tux fitting...and YES, I made him go out and sit in the car while I tried my dress on. :) We got to see Michelle and Finley...and eat at Olive Garden. We forfeited cake and had dessert at Orange Tree! The next night, I had a birthday dinner with my girlfriends from work....and on my ACTUAL birthday, Ken and I spent a quiet night at his house. It was a great week!!! Sadly, I only have pictures of our trip to OKC.

Finley's favorite word is "hi" and I love hearing her say it!!! However, this day she decided to be shy...so she only waved. She was very un-finley-like...she just sat there and stared at us. When she did finally start to open up a little, she would only play with Kenny!
Showers, showers and more showers....and this is how we got rid of all our trash (only the boxes and paper, of course)!

And, for my birthday present from Ken I got a new lense (70-300mm) for my camera!!! Here are a few pictures I took in our yard.

And here are just a few of our "kids" since I haven't posted them in awhile.

I know it APPEARS that we weren't that busy....but we were! I will post about Minnesota and the showers....but all the moments in between (dramatization) were filled with wedding plans and preparations...and will post all of that soon too!
