Updates continued...

Beginning of July...
So now that we are married it's time to change my name! Well I started with the DMV and when I went some irate man was going a little crazy on the ladies working there that I thought I might not even get to change my name in this life time thank goodness cops work there and got a hold of him and now I'm just waiting on my new license to come in the mail!!!
July 1oth and 11th...
Houston bound for Brittany's wedding July 10th! Erin and I left early in the morning to make it down to Houston in time for so early practice of our so long farewell song and dance at the end of the reception the next day. I must say we had it down pat and were ready to perform! When that was all over we all got ready for the rehearsal and dinner! Everything was wonderful and dinner was amazing! Steak was a little to raw for my liking but the evening went great and off to Brittany's mom's house all us girls went! After a little talking we were all pretty tired and decided to get some good rest for her big day! The next morning we were out running errands and had a get bridesmaid luncheon! It was wonderful and company was Devinne! haha I don't ever talk like that but after going to this place I felt like I should be talking like that! Anyway, we all got our hair done and makeup did and headed to the church for the wedding to begin! Ceremony came and went and it was wonderful Brittany looked like a princess in her beautiful dress! The reception was awesome at The Westlake Club in Houston there was a photo booth, great food, tons of dancing and my dad even pretended to be a photographer and take loads of pictures of us dancing! At the end of the night Brittany and Jonathon ran through tons of rose petals and were off to live happily ever after! After a honeymoon in St. Lucia! Congrats Roomie!

Much needed updates...

June 10th-2oth...
Ok so the days that were leading up to the wedding were great! Much to every one's surprise I was not a bridezilla despite all the things that happened! Some of those things that I thought were really funny but most didn't were my DJ change the day before the wedding, but the best one yet was when we went to get our hair done the morning of the wedding my hair dresser was super hung over and was taking breaks to get sick during our visit! I thought it was super funny but most did not! Oh well my hair looked great and that's all that mattered! Oh and our new DJ was great too!
June 20th...
Our wedding was amazing!!!!!!! I couldn't not have imagined a better more perfect wedding! And I thank my parents for everything! Jason said that he couldn't even believe that it was all for us when we walked into the reception! (Maybe he should have been in on the planning for the previous 14 months) Just a thought! But none the less June 20, 2009 was the best day of my life I married my best friend and my parents threw us one hell of a party!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
June 21st-30th...
The day after the wedding we went to both of our parents house because it was Fathers Day and we wanted to spend time with everyone who can in town to visit us. At my parents house we opened up all of our gifts and were more than blessed by everyone and their generosity!
Off to Hawaii we went! While we were on our honeymoon we were able to do so many things! We went to a luau, had a steak and lobster sunset dinner Cruise, surfing (kinda), and rented a jeep wrangler to drive around the entire island (North Shore was stunning)!!! I even got Jason to climb up diamond head the day we left to come home! What an amazing view from the top! Thank you everyone for making our honeymoon so amazing!!!

10 more days...

So I am officially off for summer break now for 10 weeks! I am so excited and got the summer off to a wonderful start by going to Houston with Erin for Brittany's Bachelorette Party at Hotel Zaza! Wow we had sucha great time!

This week so far has only a a little stress! Oh the fun stressful times of getting married! I am just glad that I can come home to Jason and Puma and put everything on hold and just enjoy our times together. We better get packing for our homeymoon! Hawaii here we come!!!!

The countdown begins...

So we are now less than a month away from being married!!! Finally some light at the end of the tunnel (endless wedding planning tunnel that is)!! I am so excited and can not wait to be Mrs. Sutherlin!

Another countdown is for school to be down with this year! Only 9 more days! I couldn't be more excited for that because right after my last teacher inservice day my college roommates Erin and I are going to drive to Houston for Brittany's Bachelorette Party! Funny enough that is the same weekend as Jason's Bachelor party! Every weekend until the wedding we have something important to do this weekend Charlie and Kelley's wedding, next weekend Stock the Bar party, the weekend after that Bachelorette/Bachelor parties, the weeend beofre the wedding Jassie's wedding the our wedding will be here!

My crazy way of telling myself that I NEED to workout is that I decided to sign up to run a marathon at the end of this year! Some may say i'm crazy but I am really excited about it and it will give me something to do over the summer! I am training 4 days a week and I even made a new running friend in the group. It's much easier to run with a partner than by yourself! Megan and I even run at the same pace and on the days we don't want to drive into Fort Worth we decided we will meet out by our houses and run! Anyway this is my way of telling everyone if I am a grouch at all until my marathon it is because I am running myself crazy! haha Just to let yall know ahead of time!

I'm sure I will be blogging more as the days get closer to the wedding...

April!

Well we are only 2 months away from the big day now!

April is always one of my favorite months because of course my birthday starts off the month to such a great start and then everything just falls into place from there!

My good friend from high school got married the weekend after my birthday and it was such a fabulous wedding! Everything was so great and I even met a new friend through out the whole day so even better! Congratulations to Jerry and Brittney Coe!

Middle school soccer is in full swing well I guess as much as it can be right now between all the April Showers. My girls are 2-0 so far and I couldn't be more proud of them!

After almost a year my college roommate Erin and I drove down to Houston for our other roommate Brittany's Bridal shower. They first night we were there we stayed up way late and just talked about all the good old days! Wow that makes us kinda old! Then on Saturday we had a great time at her shower and spent the rest of the trip just being us girls! That trip was very much need for all three of us!

This past weekend Jason's Mom Kathy, his sister-in-law Courtney and good friend of the family Ann Souders threw me a bridal shower at the church! I couldn't have asked for anything more! Except for some to come over and plant all my flowers now! haha From the table arrangements (fresh potting flowers) to the amazing funfettii cake and all the gifts it was absolutely perfect! Thank you to everyone who came in from out of town for it (Brittany-Houston, and the Amarillo Crew) and thank you for all of the wonderful gifts!

Right now we are in our week of TAKS testing here at school and I can't wait for it to be over! With all this swine flu business going around I am shocked no one at my school has gotten sick with it! Most of my kids are frequent travelers to Mexico so I am glad we are all safe and healthy! Still wish we had some days off though!!!

I am so looking forward to this weekend and my Bachelorette Party at the "W" hotel and ghost bar in Dallas! Thanks to my best friend in the whole world Kerry for making all this possible and all the bridesmaids! Yeah Miranda is coming in town to join us from Florida!!!!

March!

March was a great month for us! Jason's club is doing great and he is starting to enjoy working there! Over spring break I got to play in my wedding dress all day long! I had my bridal pictures taken and am so excited to see them.

Also the week after spring break Mom, Dad, Jason and myself got to go out to North Carolina to visit/welcome home my brother Andy! Mom and Dad went out the beginning of the week and Jason and I flew in the same day Andy got home! everyone was so excited to see him finally meet his new daughter Rylee and interact with Maddie again! She loves her daddy that's for sure! We had a great time hanging out on the beach and staying on the beach was great too! I was so sad when we had to leave but we will see them again in June for the wedding!!!!

Feburary!

Wow what a fun and exciting month! First, my sister in law Becca gave birth to my new baby neice! Rylee Rebeca Apetz, to everyones surprise she came into this world a lot bigger than expected! That's a good thing very healthy and a very happy baby! We are so glad everyone is doing great! Then, is was big sister Maddie's 2nd birthday! She is getting so big and so much fun!
