Another neglectful eight to nine months of silence… tisk tisk. The past several months have been busy... making more wonderful memories, but it has also been a tough time for me. I will explain this in a later post. For now, I’ll give the low down of the recent events happening around here.
Of course, we did some tailgating and attended Marshall games in the fall. GO HERD!
We celebrated our first wedding anniversary at Verde Farm Cottage, where we got married. I had set up a photo shoot & couples massages (the ladies from a salon came to the cottage). While we got our massages, my best friend, Kayla, prepared a fancy dinner for us! We had a nice candlelit dinner and some sparkling wine. We walked around the farm & fed the animals, and the lovely lady at the farm let us use her pool for a night time swim. It was a relaxing and memorable day for us.
We dressed up as Dexter and his victim for Halloween. We became obsessed with that show, so we were pretty excited about the costumes.
Our families came to our house for Thanksgiving. It was nice to have everyone together again, and we all had a really great time. I hope to do this again.
Christmas this year was busy but exciting. We went to our friends Kory and Megan’s costume party where everyone dressed up as Christmas characters. That was fun. We went to the Rooper Christmas dinner in Hurricane on Christmas Eve, Logan for Christmas morning, then Jason’s parents’ house Christmas evening. Like I said… busy but fun!
We spent New Year’s Eve at a big all-inclusive party in Charleston at the Embassy Suites. This was phenomenal! We will absolutely be doing this again. It was fun to get dressed up and dance the night away!
We went skiing in Canaan Valley again in January with the Rileys and Zimmermans. We got a nice cabin and got to stay two nights. It was actually a pretty warm weekend, so the snow was a little slushy and difficult to ski on. However, we still had a great time. Can’t wait to go again!
We celebrated Valentine’s Day two days early again because that was the day we got engaged. To me, that day means more. Plus, it’s a bonus to be able to avoid most of the busy crowds at all the nice restaurants, lol. Jason got me some flowers and a beautiful open-hearts necklace. I got him a new fossil watch. He took me to the Blackhawk Grill for dinner. Yum!
Thanks to one of my First Steps families, I got backstage passes for a meet and greet with Miranda Lambert! I was way excited about this!
We had a baby shower for one of my best friends, Crissa, in February. She gave birth to her precious baby boy, Elijah Ray Keefer on March 15, 2013. He is quite the little blessing, I can tell.
One of my other best friends, Lacie, also announced in February that she is pregnant as well. Baby Casto is due on his/her daddy’s birthday, September 13, 2013. I hope it’s a girl!
We helped Kayla and Wesley move into their new house last weekend. The house is extremely nice, and I am excited for them. Of course, most of my “helping” consisted of entertaining and cuddling their gorgeous baby girl, Delaney. She brightens my day, no matter what. I love that child so much. We have booked our vacation for 7 nights at an all-inclusive resort in Montego Bay, Jamaica with the Boggs family June 19th – 25th. We just booked our flights for that this week, so we’re all set. Now I just need some new swim suits and a couple new dresses, haha! And for time to fly by. ☺
Speaking of time flying by…. my sister turned 30 this month, and I will be 29 next month. This is insane. Yikes! I'll be sure to enjoy my 20s while I still can. :)
