36 Weeks... Oh How Time Flies!

This post is a couple days late but I am still recovering! 3 Weeks and 3 Days is a long long time to be away. Not to mention 8 days away from Ben! But I am finally home, and I am loving it. Nesting is amazing and tiring but going through all the baby clothes was so much fun. 

Christmas was busy, but oh so much fun. Lots of late nights and laughs. We started off our vacation having a big party with our friends. It was so good to re-connect with many of them we haven't seen in a few years. 

Then family Christmas' started, back and forth, back and forth. There were many times where I imagined Baby T crawling in among the wrapping and his cousins helping him open all his gifts. I know next Christmas will be so different and I cannot wait! 
The Abrahams Family, just missing the Stewarts:<
The Timmermans Family

Then once Christmas was all over..... it was time to get ready for Amy's Wedding! It was such a fun weekend but exhausting! We stayed in a gorgeous suite at The Red River Rock Casino & Resort in Richmond which was perfect. The entire bridal part got ready there and it was a blast!

The wedding was so much fun and the groomsmen were such gentlemen when it came to helping us girls in our high heels! Taking pictures was quite chilly but from the few pictures I have seen the Photographer (James Lissimore Photography) it was worth being cold!

By the time I fell into bed at 3am I was ready for my own bed!


Me and my best friend, Amy, the Beautiful Bride!
The gorgeous heels the entire Bridal Party wore! 
The Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Vancouver they got married in. 

You can't tell we are cold can you!?
