This Christmas was so much fun and full of excitement. On Friday, Dec. 23rd B and I had Christmas with his family. They always do it early so it was a fun start to a fun weekend. We went over to his parents house and had dinner and opened presents with his parents, brother, sister in law, niece and nephew. Then, on Christmas Eve day B and I went over to my Aunt and Uncle's house and had lunch with my extended family. Then, we went to the 6:30 Cornerstone service at HPUMC. After that B and I went out to dinner, just the two of us. It was so much fun to spend Christmas Eve together.
Christmas Day, my family and I opened gifts. We had to wait a bit for Bill to show up. Then, I went over and exchanged gifts with B. He gave me a Burberry Scarf, which I LOVE! Then, we went to B's brother's house and hung out with them for a bit. After that we hung out before we went to my parents house for Christmas Day dinner. After dinner, we watched Elf. It was a great weekend.

Wedding shower
On Saturday December 17th I had my first wedding shower. It was so much fun! It was held at Neiman Marcus at Northpark Mall. The theme was an ornament shower. The idea came from my aunt. She said that my cousin had this shower when she got married and loved it. The shower was so much fun. It was great to see my friends, my Mom's friend's and B's Mom's friends as well. The lunch was so good and one of my favorites. We had the pop over bread which I LOVE with the strawberry butter and little cup of soup. Then we had the chicken salad yum and cup cakes for dessert.
I have just started to open all of the ornaments that we got and Love them all. They are all so special. I am looking forward to having them on our tree next Christmas. I am saving some of the ornaments to open with Ben and doing the rest with my Mom. The first shower was so much fun and made everything feel more real with the engagement. I am looking forward to the other parties and celebrations before the big day, which will be here before I know it!

Great weekend
This past weekend was so much fun. I have been house/dog-sitting for my parents this past week and a half. This past weekend was a lot of fun. Friday, we had dinner with B's family at Mi Cocina! It was great then on Saturday B and I did a little Christmas shopping and stopped by Preston Center to see Santa's reindeer. As we were there we ran into B's brother's family and had lunch with them. After that we came back. My maid of honor in my wedding came over and we did some wedding related things and hung out. Then, Bill my brother showed up at home with his christmas present to himself a puppy named Bentley. I called B to come and see it. After that Kristina had to leave and B and I went to look at Christmas lights. We took the dogs, Harley and Riley with us and then stopped by to get dinner on the way back. Sunday, we went to Church and continued Christmas shopping. Then, we went and bought the movie Cars 2. We watched it and LOVED it!!! I am sure when we have our own kids someday we won't have to worry about buying kids movies cause we already do!
This coming weekend should be fun too. Friday, no plans which will be fun. Saturday a bridal shower for me and Caylx followed by a play on Sunday afternoon. We are getting excited for Christmas and looking forward to finishing our shopping.

Movies
So, today I went by my favorite Blockbuster on Hillcrest and University only to find that they have CLOSED it! This is very very sad news :( One day it was open and the next not. I think this must have been recent because another person drove up as I did and saw the sign too. So, it is very unexpected and a little sad too. I was going to rent the Hangover 2 guess I am not going to now.

Baby, it's cold outside
Well this weekend and week have ended up being VERY COLD!!! Sunday, B and I went and saw the Muppet movie. This is the first one I have ever seen in the theater. We LOVED it and can't wait to get it when it comes out on DVD. Also, this weekend we made our own pizza at my parents house, however it burned :( Apparently, my parents oven is different than mine.
In other news I got a start on Christmas shopping and am ready to do some more this week. Also, while staying at my parents house only some of the Christmas lights are working. I think it was because of all the rain, but if you look at the house you only see lights on one side working. The other side of the house has the lights on. I do not know how to fix it. Oh well. So, if you drive by a house with only half the lights on it is probably my parents.
