Bachelorette Weekend

Over the weekend I went to Palm Springs with my bridesmaids for my Bachelorette Weekend. While we were away, Brian and some of the guys went to Santa Barbara for his Bachelor weekend. We both had loads of fun and still can't stop sharing stories. :)

1 month left!

Wow - I can hardly believe that one month from today I will be getting married! Brian and I couldn't even be more excited, although I am feeling the stress now. I haven't had much time to breathe since school has been out. I have been working my 2 part time jobs a lot while working on wedding stuff, writing thank you cards, and starting to pack. Busy busy as usual!!

Bridal Shower Pictures

Wow! Only 50 more days to go till the wedding!!! I soooo can't even wait!!! In less than a week I will be officially done with school forever! (unless I am crazy enough to go back later on, which would not surprise me). And Brian graduates this SUNDAY! Very exciting!!!

Here are some pictures from my bridal shower that was at Pam's house on April 24. It was such a beautiful shower!!!

(PS - let me know if you want the original of any picture(s) -
I will happily email them to you). :)

Wedding Shower

Last weekend we had our first shower - it was a co-ed wedding shower with our friends from church. A huge thank you to the Wintheiser's for hosting this lovely event! It was amazing!! The theme was "Honeymoon in Europe" and was centered around the 3 countries we will be visiting: Spain, France, & Italy. Click below to view my album of pictures!

4 more months!

The wedding is now 4 months away, yet there is still a good amount of stuff to be taken care of (the biggest being my unconfirmed florist). We just keep putting one foot in front of the other, juggling school, work, planning, moving stuff, etc. We definitely have a lot going on right now and a lot of huge changes coming up this summer, but we are very excited about it all! Thanks again for your prayers!!

I thought I would post some family pics - we took these in November to give to our parents/family for Christmas.

Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year!!! I cannot even believe it is already 2010! I hope each of you has a wonderful year filled with happiness and blessings!!

Today Brian and I also celebrate being engaged for 1 year - time sure does fly by! It has been an amazing year of engagement and the two of us only grow closer and closer to each other every day.

6 Months to go!!!

Six months from today, Brian and I will be getting married!! It is soooo exciting, but I can really feel the stress building up. Since I put a lot of wedding planning on hold until the semester and holidays were over, I am starting to get serious with it now, but have very little time before school starts back up again. So, every day of break right now is a busy one - trying to check things off the long list (not all wedding planning stuff though). I can't believe we only have 6 more months to go - it is going to FLY BY!!!

Engagement Pictures

Well, I am housesitting today in Ladera Ranch - the mastiff and lab. It's nice having a quiet place to work on schoolwork. Anyway, I am on my laptop and realized that I finally can post a couple pics from our engagement photo shoot. :) So, here's a glimpse...

I don't want to show you too many, so just these 2 to "chew" on. :) By the way, these were taken at Oak Canyon Nature Center in Anaheim Hills, a place where Brian and I often hike/walk to. And we took these on February 1 - Super Bowl Sunday.

Our Engagement Party

Friday, February 6 was our Engagement party at Pam's house.
It was so much fun and a very memorable evening.
We really enjoyed having all our family and church friends join us to celebrate our engagement.
