Southernisms: Do eet!

Wow, so this weekend was packed full! I took loads of pictures (see below) and put a ton of stuff up on Etsy, had an extremely delicious breakfast in bed for my birthday AND a very relaxing bubble bath thanks to Jeremy, and just relaxed. I know, I know, relaxing isn't usually part of a packed full weekend, but it was pretty great for me!

We've both gotten in to take care of the worst teeth in our mouths and both have gone well-- they were the most likely to be either root canals in my case or extractions in Jeremy's case. I'm very pleased that they went well-- as much bad luck as we've had with our teeth falling apart, it's nice to have luck treating them!

We're planning our year out, hoping that this is the year we get "fit"-- get all of our dental work taken care of, get in shape, I have some weight to lose, and Jeremy wants to run a 50 miler with a friend from his running group in the fall. This summer, we'll take most of a week to go up to Indiana and see Josh and Sarah again, and visit Grandma and Earl (and give me a chance to ride the horses 'til I can't walk straight!) and over Easter we'll head up to Mississippi to see Marc and Jan. In November, the F1 race will be in Austin so that's four days right there, and then, in September...

WE'LL FINALLY GET A HONEYMOON!!!!

My friend Elyse is getting married and MAN I'm excited! She lives in England at the moment and is marrying a great guy aaaaaaaand, they are getting married at a huge church and then putting everyone on double decker buses to take us over to THE TOWER BRIDGE!!! for the reception! We can't really afford it, but it's a once in a lifetime opportunity so we're going to make it happen!

This year is about getting healthy and seeing people. All of our travel recently has been family based, and we love our family but we haven't seen most of our friends since the wedding! Over two years! I'm dying to see Lauren and Joey again, I miss them SO much, and Brent, too! I don't know that we'll make it up to NY to see Joe this year, but it's definitely up at the top of my list since it looks like he'll be in Niagara Falls for a little bit and I've always wanted to visit! Plus, it would be an easy way to dip in to Canada for a day trip!
