I like you. Seriously, why do you have to go by so fast?!
The good news is that the weeks also seem to be going fast since this time of year is so exciting with the holidays. But, still there is just something fabulous about the weekends. Now that we live in Charlotte, it has been really great to feel more settled. Most of our weekends are spent in town and we spend time with each other, friends and family. I've really used the last month to seriously just relax. Learning to relax has been a challenge for me but I'm thankful the Lord is revealing this to me during this season of my life.
This weekend we actually went to Morganton, NC to see my college roommate Anne get married. The weather was amazing, Anne was gorgeous and the ceremony was worshipful. One of my favorite things about Anne's wedding is that she wore her mom's dress. She had it reconstructed just a tad but how sweet is that? I wish I would have got a full length shot of the two of us but even getting one picture with the bride is hard in itself so this is my one and only snag:
After the reception, Todd and I drove an hour south to catch the end of our niece's FIRST birthday party. I cannot believe that she is one already! I love her so much!
My sister did a great job of putting together a "little pumpkin" themed birthday party. We missed her digging into her first sweet treat (cake) but I hear it was a huge success and that she cried when they took it away from her. It was great to spend time with family and I'm very thankful for the relationship we all have. Annlyn is in for some real fun as she grows up with us Caulder girls.
For fun I will leave you with a video I shot of Maggie. This is her being the queen of the guest bed. Ignore my baby voice and the fact that this video was originally made to show "daddy" aka Todd while he was at work.
Hope you too have had a great weekend!
5 more days until weekend (lol, I had to) meet again...
