Decking The Halls

Finals are officially over, and it is time to get in the holiday spirit :).

On that note, Bobbus and I decorated our first Christmas tree in the new house!

It is such a thrill every time I see it all lit up. It makes me want to sip hot cocoa and sing Christmas carols. Picture quality isn't all that grand, but what can I say, I was just so excited!

All I need now is some wrapping paper and "Elf."

Tis the season,

Thank you,

I Now Pronounce You...

...Husband and Wife!

My sister got to marry her best friend on October 9, 2009.

The wedding was so not traditional at all, way better. She wanted it to be a picnic wedding so that is exactly what she did. The whole event was super intimate and absolutely stunning.

I do have to say that the bridal party was pretty much rockin' too :).

Everything went perfectly and she made the most beautiful bride. We all

sat on picnic blankets that have been in our family for years and years. Our great grandmother was quite the quilter and Ash thought that this would be a fantastic way to incorporate them. There were twinkle lights and lots of picnic games... Did I mention the fantastic food?!!... and tasty cake if I do say so myself!

Oh Love,

Cake Tasting

I'm pretty sure I have mentioned a time or two before that my sister was getting married back in October. Well, she is now a "Mrs." and loving every second of it!

I was asked to be the baker of the wedding cakes and of course, I accepted.

So naturally we had a cake tasting. There were several different flavors so the two love birds had quite a bit of work to do!

Grab a fork, no need for knives, and taste until your heart is content

Bon Appetite,

It's been A While

I would have loved to blog every single day these past few weeks but truth be told, I have barely had time to catch my breath in between projects, papers, presentations, exams and so on and so forth...

I am glad to announce that the rush is over until finals approach! I should technically be studying right now, but honestly, lets be real. so to catch you up I will try to post quite a few new posts in the next few days.

Stay tuned,
