My sissy's bridal shower!

Carly's friends threw her an AMAZING Bridal Shower on September 19, 2009.

Rindy, Angela and Lacey really did an excellent job.

The food was incredible, the decorations were beautiful and classy.

You can tell how much they LOVE my sister and it truly warmed my heart!

Here is my sister arriving, She is glowing!

And some guests at the shower

1...2...3...4...what?!?...4 years!

October 29, 2009

John and I celebrated 4 years of...

Dating.

Enjoying eachother's company.

Learning about ourselves AND each other.

Love.

    I can honestly say that I never really thought that we would make it this far. Those of you that know us know that it has not been easy, that we have faced many obstacles and that every day matters! We both appreciate all of the love and support that we have received from our friends and family over the years. We wouldn't be together if it wasn't for your words of wisdom!

One of our first pictures together!

   John...Thank you for loving me when it has been so hard! For teaching me HOW to be a better person. Letting me make mistakes and for always supporting my career! You are truly unique and I am so blessed to have you in my life! Happy four years! Love you!...Mandy

A pic from August

Becca and Steve

I mentioned back in August that my work mentor was getting married.

Becca officially became Mrs. Steve Adkinson on September 18, 2009.

They got married at the Ritz Carlton in Dana Point. That is one of the most beautiful venues. Definitely set the standards for amazing weddings.

They had a photo booth, which has become quite the range, that John and I had fun in. We also made scrapbook pages for the couple to keep. LOVED doing that!

Congratulations and I pray that you have a life filled of LOVE and HAPPINESS!

Reagan's gymnastics class

I was off on a Monday and I decided to spend some much needed time with my bestie and her girls. I babysat reagan and Paige while Sarah ran errands and then went with them to Reagan's gymnastics class at Miss Reags request. I cannot tell you how happy it made me to have her ask me to come and really want me there. Watching her in gymnastics was the cutest thing! I got some great pictures!

Babysitting

She wanted a pic of us together!

I put my scarf on her! A girl must always play dress up :)
