Godparents

We spent Halloween weekend in Richmond with Mike's family and had a great time with everyone, especially on Sunday at Jacob's baptism. Mike and I are definitely not ready for children of our own just yet, but it's very flattering to be Godparents to this very sweet and adorable baby boy. Thanks Weimer's for such an awesome opportunity! We love you all so much!

Etsy

I don't know how many of you all shop at Etsy - I don't on a regular basis, but I love to look at all the fabulous stuff they have for sale. A blog I like to read featured this Etsy Shop that I thought I would pass along. Water4Christmas seems like a great cause and they have some pretty cute handmade stuff! Go here to read their profile, or check them out at www.water4christmas.com

Halloween 2009

Some pretty funny shots from a friend's annual Halloween party we attended this weekend. Happy (early) Halloween! Enjoy!

Reid Thomas

After a long awaited arrival (a little over 40 weeks to be exact), Katie & Shaun (and Pierce) have welcomed their second beautiful baby boy into this world. Reid Thomas was born on October 6th around 2:30pm.

We were able to go to Charlottesville last week to visit and though it's hard to get good pictures of a week-old baby, I managed to snap a few. I can't wait to get some more soon, though!

Congratulations Arnold's! We love you guys!

New Beginnings

Congratulations are in order for several of my very best girlfriends.

Congrats to the new Mr. and Mrs. Gary & Betsy Walker, who were married on October 3rd at the beautiful Maison Beliveau just outside of Blacksburg.

Congrats to Jennifer & Kyle on their engagement!

And to Jane Claire & Kelly on their engagement!

And to Jana & Alex on their engagement!

We seem to have added a handful of great guys to our group this Fall. I love all these girls so much and am so excited for all of them! Looks like Wedding Season 2010 is shaping up to be busy! Congratulations girls!

First Year

Our first anniversary was 3 weeks ago! We definitely celebrated, I just never had a chance to blog about it! I can't believe it's been [over] a year since our wedding. This past year flew by. If the rest of our marriage is anything like the first year - it's going to be a great life. We have so many family members and friends that are so supportive of us and we are so thankful for that. Thank you to everyone who has nurtured our marriage this first year and for all the love you have provided.

These are just a few of my favorite shots from our wedding day...
