Happy New Year x2!

We couldn't decide which card to order...so we ordered both!

Happy New Year from an indecisive pair!

Very Merry Christmas!

For Christmas, Paul bought me the Dave Barnes Christmas CD...which I love! The CD is called "Very Merry Christmas" and I have not turned it off since I received it about a month ago.

I have not turned it off. Not once. In a month.

We now know the CD by heart and last night on our way home, Paul said "You know...I'm looking forward to listening to something else once Christmas is over....".

I might have overdone it with the Christmas tunes...but 'tis the season!

Anyway....We hope you had a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS...or I suppose a Merry Christmas would have been sufficent!

PS: It's too bad I decided to take a nap during our only Christmas photo session!

BRB...

Be. Right. Back.

Sorry for the negligent blogging lately. We've been doing 1 of 2 things over the last 19 days since our last post...
1) Shoveling snow
2) Eating Christmas cookies

We're hoping they counter-act eachother!

We've got a little time off in the next couple weeks and I'm hoping to give you a better update then!

Sorry...will you accept this funny YouTube video in exchange for your patience?



I could totally see Paul & I doing this one day... "Got my pride in the ride!" (Nice work, Toyota!)

BRB,

Wedding Video Clips!

Yeah! Just now, I got an e-mail from our wedding videographer! He finished our wedding video and saved it as 4 clips to YouTube! Check it out!










If you ever need a videographer, contact Nick at: nictacks@gmail.com!

Thanks Nick - you did such a great job!

Where credit is due...

Long before our wedding, I decided I would write a series of blog posts afterward about the details and the people who helped make them happen....

This one is about my friend Natalie.

Natalie and I went to college and played basketball together! She's not only a sweet, kind-hearted person but she's really talented as well! She did my hair for our wedding (which I LOVED) and she also made hair clips for each of my bridesmaids and one of my nieces - the only flower girl with enough hair to hold a clip (Sorry Claire...someday!)

Here's one of the hair clips that Natalie made for the girls.

Thanks for modeling it, Gina!

Here's a couple shots of my hair as Natalie did some finishing touches!


(Note how cool her hair is!)


Natalie works at Juut Salon and has already gotten quite the reputation for making 'do's that get noticed! She's competing in a national hair show soon and I'm confident she'll do awesome!

If you're looking for a stylist in the Twin Cities, I would suggest her to anyone! In fact, she just did my hair last Friday...shorter and darker! I love it!

Thanks Natalie for all you did for our wedding! We owe you!

Thank God It's Black Friday!

Good Morning! I write this to you at just after 5am!

Why, you ask...

Today, I partook in my very first "crack o' dawn Black Friday shopping fest"...and to be honest, it wasn't too bad.

My schedule so far today:

3:00am: Rrrrrring! Alarm goes off, as I stagger downstairs....groggy and begin to put my....

3:15am: Warm clothes on, coffee in hand and out the door into the cold only to....

3:25am: Arrive in the Sear's parking lot with wish list in hand and head over to be....

3:35am: First in line at the door with my running shoes on ready to...

4:00am: Run (yes, I said run) through the Sear's door and to the Home Appliance section just in time to....

4:01am: Hurl my body on top of most desired washer, dryer and above-the-range microwave

(....ok, I made that part up, but the idea really did cross my mind!)

4:20am: Head to the check out (hooray!) and....

4:30am: Price out a couple treadmills in the Fitness section on my way...

4:40am: Back to the car....feeling pretty great about myself as I drive back home to....

4:50am: Crawl in bed with my snoring husband...which doesn't last long until I'm...

5:00am: On the recliner blogging!

To be honest, that's my kind of shopping....early, competitive, big deals...and back in bed within 2 hours! When will this lack of sleep hit me today? (You may begin placing bets now.)

If you're venturing out to shop today...good luck!

Happy Thanksgiving All!

What happens in Vegas...

...gets posted on our blog! (Sorry Treds!)

Show us how you feel about being in Vegas...

Matt = creepily excited

Paul = super creepily excited

Amber = tired? JK, maybe scandelous?!?!

Kendra = thirsty!

What? You thought marriage and children would mature us?!?! Good one!

In keeping with the Vegas tradition, I won't say much more...but we did have a good time!

**Don't ask what Paul & I are doing in this photo...it's from a tv show "put your hands on top of mine"...again, we think we're funny!

Enjoy your week,
