OK-- so I get a new job at an investment banking firm and before you know it I don't leave a blog for 2 months!!! AAAHHHHHH!!!!!
We Apologize :(
So what is new... well we bought a Marine blue pearl 2007 Dodge Caliber...

Just about every Wednesday since the beginning of the year and now every Saturday...I go over to my Aunt Marylou's house (great aunt Lou Lou) and together we work on my wedding dress. So far we have cut out the pattern, made sure that every piece fit me accordingly, made the bodice including the boning, cut out very pretty parts of the fabric... and putting them together. We still have to attach the top to the bottom (you make those separately) then finishing touches, hems, pretty things, and horsehair (it helps the dress from sucking to your ankles... you want a little fullness). The rest will be left for imagination for the day :)
I also have already printed out our invitations, I just have to bring them over to Aunt Angie's to cut them and then put them together with Angie or Sarah soon :) So much to do! I also need to print out the card names and table names (instead of numbers) pretty soon. Angie Brown gave us a great idea about naming the tables in stead of numbering them. So Jeffrey and I have decided to make them all be important and significant names to us in our relationship. There will also be a little paragraph on the back of each card with a picture to explain what each name means and where it came from.
What else has been going on.... hhhmmm Jeffrey with his business and me at an investment banking firm in Ladue! We are busier than ever and loving it! I do miss my days off being able to work out/run, make a big long lunch and being able to babysit at a drop of a hat for anyone who needed it anytime I wanted. But the fulfillment we have of loving our careers and the roads we have chosen are incredible.
Australia... of course we miss that home! We really didn't think we were going to have such a difficult time getting over moving away from that area and everything we were used to and loved. Emilia and Mark (our adopted family there) send us emails and calls every once in a while keeping in touch as much as we can. It is hard to wonder when we'll ever see each other again.
Drop us a comment to tell us what is new with YOU!
