excited for tomorrow!

Tomorrow is my bridal shower and I am very excited! It has always kind of seemed like this day would never come. As of today I have only 50 days left until the wedding! That seems so crazy. . . this last year or so has just flown by. I really cannot believe that Michael has been back home from Iraq for almost a year already!
Anyway. . .pertaining to the wedding. . . all of my invites are out except about 11 which I was waiting on addresses for, but those should be going out by Monday or Tuesday, my trial run for my hair is tomorrow morning before the shower which makes me excited because I love having my hair done up all pretty!

Following are some pictures from my niece's birthday party last weekend. This is Sasha and she just turned one. She was all about the presents to start with, especially this round one. . .betcha can't guess what that one was. :) She did tire of opening the presents fairly quickly so her brothers helped open the rest of her gifts. This is Taylor being happy that she is holding the new baby doll. Sasha got a little baby doll for her birthday and as soon as she set it down Taylor scooped it up. When she had to give it back to Sasha there was a little fit, so there was a little lesson taught about how it was Sasha's baby doll and it was so nice of Sasha to let Taylor play with it. The next time when Sasha came looking for her baby doll, Taylor handed it right over. Kids have such great imaginations. I think this toy is actually a fire truck with a yellow ladder on top (not really sure what the blue thing is) but all Trey saw was that it looked like binoculars and he kept pretending to look through them. I wish our imaginations as adults were as active as they were when we were kids. And what is a first birthday party without an individual cupcake/cake for the child to devour. Sasha fulfilled every expecation. She had that cupcake everywhere and she was just raking in the attention, which was very unlike prior birthdays with the boys when they were almost too shy to sit there and even open presents in front of everyone. Laura says she is all girl. . .she loves pretty clothes, she loves chocolate, and she loves being the center of attention!
Eating this cupcake was very serious business and what better way to eat it than to take all the good stuff off the top first!Won't she love these pictures when she is older. Hee hee hee. She was covered in chocolate and perfectly content until her cupcake was gone. Well that's all for now. I am currently in the process of cleaning my house. I am in the middle of washing the dishes and doing laundry. I still need to vacuum my floors but that sounds very unappealing. . .Beth just called and I think I am going to take a short lunch break and go to Arby's with her and Mama.
Until then.
