Our New Friends

Last Tuesday night when I pulled up to the house I found these guys in our yard. At first I wasn't really sure what to do. While I was standing there the neighbor walked over and told me that these birds have been around before. Our land lords were out of town but from what the neighbor tells us our land lords feed them. They were funny to watch. All they wanted was food. They have been back since last week and seem to like the fact that someone is feeding them.

Honeymoon - Part Two

Here are the rest of the honeymoon photos!

On Tuesday went drove into Gatlinburg!

We went to the aquarium!

There was a shark tank that you could walk through!

Ethan petting a horseshoe crab

I got a lot of funny look when I did this...haha!

On our way back to the cabin we got stopped almost at the top of the mountain because a car had blown up. We ended up sitting in the car for about a hours. The traffic was SO backed up. Keep in mind that we were on a two lane road that goes over a huge mountain. When we finally started moving again we drove past the car and this is what we found. As far as we know, no one got hurt. We never saw an ambulance. Only fire trucks and a cop car. It looked like the cop car had people in it so we are hoping that the people in there were the owners of the car and that they were safe.

At the top of the mountain there is a place for people to stop and walk around. The view is beautiful!

On our last day there we decided to go tubing. We even did some hiking. We hiked up to a water fall and we thought is was pretty neat!

After we went to the water fall we went tubing. I don't have any photos from tubing because I didn't want my camera to get wet. We had a blast tubing even though the water was freezing :)

On our way home.....back to the new normal!

Honeymoon-Part One

We had a blast on our Honeymoon! It was so nice to relax and spend time together! It was a much needed break from work for both of us. On Saturday night we stayed at Club Continental on the St.Johns river. It was beautiful and our suite was so nice! On Sunday we headed to North Carolina. Our cabin was beautiful as well and the weather was great. We enjoyed every minute of our honeymoon and are ready to start planning our next vacation. I will be posting more photos soon! Enjoy!

Bridesmaid Brunch

The Friday before the Wedding my sweet friend and Pastors wife, Jeanne, along with her sweet mom, Mrs.Hodges, hosted the most beautiful bridesmaid brunch ever! Everything was perfect and so well planned! There was a lot of us to feed and the food was amazing! I ate so much and was so full!! It was so fun to have all of my bridesmaids, flower girls(along with their wonderful mama's), my Mom and Ethan's mom with me! I loved having such a large bridal party! It was a blast!! Thank you so much to Mrs.Jeannie and Mrs.Hodges for hosting such a wonderful brunch. I know it took a lot of hard work and I want you to know that it meant the world to me! I love you both dearly!!

Here are a few photos for the brunch!

Kendall and Jessica came to Florida!

On the Wednesday before the wedding my two best friends of Kentucky came into town for the wedding! I am SO glad that they were not only able to come to the wedding but that they were able to come into town so early! I was honored to have them as bridesmaids! These girls are the best! They are so very dear to me! We got super close while I was at Boyce College and I am so thankful that we have continued to keep our friendship close! I love these girls to death!

Side Note: Kendall and Jessica are also getting married! Kendall is getting married on December 12th and Jessica is getting married on January 2nd! I am so excited for them!

Ethan and I took them to Johnny's for some Southern Sweet Tea. Both girls are from up north and even though they have had and already like sweet tea they found a new love. Johnny's sweet tea :)

On our way to St.Augustine we had to stop for a bathroom break...from all the sweet tea....we thought these hats were pretty cute!

Florida Beaches!

I promise that I will be posting pre-wedding,wedding, and honeymoon photos soon but for now I wanted everyone to see this sweet photo! Hannah was one of mine and Ethan's flower girls and this photo was taken by her wonderful mother right after I saw Hannah for the first time! I love this photo!! I can't wait to see the photos of both my sweet flower girls!
