wow its early..for a sunday

early morning post! I've already done so much! yesterday I slept till 9:30..soooo wierd..I must have been exhausted! and then this morning I woke up at 6--dead awake..so I got outta bed..careful not to wake ry and the pup and went and read my book on the couch..I'm reading this..

I'm loving it! I knew I would because i LOVED LOVED LOVED the movie! I can't wait for it to come out on dvd!

then I woke the pup up and we went on an early morning walk..

we came home..I fed shi, ate a small breakfast, did some dishes, put some presents away and here we are..9 am and I'm ready to go..waiting for ry to wake up..I'm letting him sleep in because he has had a hard week..he works his tail off at work..he especially did this week and it was recognized! He was put on the promotion list! *fingers crossed* I'm so proud of him!

He has today off so we are having a date "day" haha we are too old for nights! we are going to go see a movie and go out to eat..maybe run some wedding errands in between! I LOVE when he has weekends off! except..I do get ALOT more done when he is at work during the day on sat and sun! haha

It was so great to see some of my friends and family...some where not able to make it but they were there in spirit! It really was such a fun party! I had butterflies all day! We got alot of awesome gifts off our registry too! Here are some pics from the day..

Gigi's cupcakes! AMAZING!!! 

cake pops! sooo yummy!! 

we played a game where people split up in teams and made the bridesmaids wedding dresses out of toilet paper! so much fun! I got to judge who had the best dress!

 my bridesmaids! don't they make beautiful brides? haha

the winning team..they scored brownie points because they gave her a "princess diana" train! haha 

 then we played a fun game of who knows the groom the best...me against ry's mom! haha it was so much fun and so hard..only because Ry answered them so that we would get them wrong we had to put gum in our mouths!

I beat the mother of the groom by 2! haha 

me with all my wonderful presents! 

my soon to be mom and sister! LOVE THEM!

 my bridesmaids! minus two! haha I can't wait to get pictures with all 6 of them!

me and the host! Such a wonderful party planner/bestie and maid of honor! 

everyone who came!  

It was a great day!!

this is another game they played..as I opened up my gifts-the guests played bingo! haha it was fun! 

Ry was super excited about all our gifts when we got them home! 

Such a fun day!!! AND..I still have 2 more showers!! yay! Super blessed is all I am!

our sweet bruce

well this is a post I've been dreading but I have to post to remember all the memories!
last week-my parents had to put our family dog Bruce down...It's been really sad...we have known that this was coming for a while because he was old and not doing good..he is now in heaven with coach and cooper and grandma and grandpa..with no pain...we will all miss him so much! I know this was so hard for my family and I am not there so I can't even imagine that day..I am going to visit in 2 weeks and it's going to be so wierd to not have bruce greet me at the door...but he was in a lot of pain and he could barely greet me last time I came to visit..he will be greatly missed and NEVER forgotten! Bruce was the BEST dog...the sweetest dog...anybody could have!! he was a wonderful little brother to coach and a wonderful big brother to toby! We miss you brucey! We have all gained another guardian angel...I know that as soon as he got through the heaven gates..coach was there to greet him and so was grandma and grandpa with bisquits for him! Love you sweet puppy..

rest in peace my sweet puppy
