After the Holidays, some of mine and Wade's very dear friends, Kellie and Jantzen, were married on January 2, 2010. We rang in the New Year with their wonderful wedding celebration. I absolutely love this couple and I know they will continue to be the greatest friends anyone could ask for.
Next was dad's Birthday in Fayetteville at Pesto Italian Cafe. It was Yumm-O!! Then Ellen's Birthday celebration, again in Northwest Arkansas at Copeland's. Delish! We surprised her with a David Yurman watch and boy was she ever surprised! It's beautiful. Mom's Birthday was just last week and we took her to a Hibachi grill. Another great meal with my wonderful family.
This past weekend was Valentine's weekend. Wade and I traveled the two hours to Conway, Arkansas and then took the country roads (the only roads) to Heber Springs, Arkansas. Unfortunately, we will be moving after the wedding to Heber... I'm sad to leave our family and sweet friends, but I am hopeful it has many blessings for us. We house hunted and ate yummy food all weekend. We found a house we really like with an awesome backyard for entertaining AND... a PoOl! I hope this is 'the house' and I can't wait to start decorating.
Valentine's Day Wade and I drove into Little Rock to eat lunch and shop around. He got me chocolate covered strawberries and a BEA-utiful sapphire ring. I'm going to wear it as my 'something blue' on our wedding day.
The wedding, aside from our wonderful wedding showers (I can't WAIT), is the next BIG celebration!! I'm more than ready for May 15 to get here, but I'm reminding myself to enjoy the last few months with my family and friends and take in all that God has blessed us with so far.
