UPDATE!

The last few months=blogging fail

I aspire to be a better blogger.  Let's see what happens!

Since my last post, I have:

become married to my love and best friend

honeymooned in Hawaii
welcomed my BFF and her adorable daughter home for keeps
I think those are the big ones.

Everyone keeps asking (mostly co-workers who feel it's the best way to start casual conversation), how is married life?!  The answer is; it's awesome!!!  We've been together for 10 years, so there aren't many more surprises.  Honeymooning is awesome though.  Hawaii was beautiful (and expensive, but totally worth it).  The one surprise I've encountered so far is the struggle to get a complete name change.  I just got my new driver's license in the mail today (after first getting my marriage license, then new social security card).  Now, I have to change my name for my bank account, credit cards, and any other bills in my name.  It's worth it though.  I love being a Lambert and being a wife.  I can't even express how awesome it is to refer to Josh as my husband instead of my boyfriend or fiance (the French are overrated).

On another subject, Bailey's daughter is the most adorable baby I've ever seen.  I thought having a baby in my life without being my own would vanquish this case of baby fever I've had for the past year or so.  Instead, it has elevated the fever!  It isn't in the cards for Josh and I to have a baby yet.  So, until that time, Josh and I will admire Avery with our baby loving googly eyes every chance we get.  PS-Avery was sleeping in my lap the other night and laughed in her sleep.  It was on my top five list of most awesome moments ever and I almost cried.

Just a side note as to why I randomly decided to blog tonight, my husband fell asleep about an hour ago.  We went to Trudy's, had a couple of Mexican martinis, came home, and he was out like a light.  His precious snores have kept me smiling throughout this post.

Bridal Shower

This past Saturday, I had my bridal shower at my parent's house.  Although I was really nervous, it ended up being so much fun.  Everyone seemed to have a pretty good time, so I think it was a success.  I was also really impressed with the amount of people willing to drive out to my parent's house, it is a bit of a journey.  It was awesome to have so many great friends in one place, I had such a great time.

We started with some "Bride Bingo" (this is the only game I would allow, lol)


My mom busted out the fancy champagne glasses
Scrapbooking was our other activity.  Now I have the most awesome wedding scrapbook ever because it was contributed to by all my friends.
The cute favors my sister made.


Scrapin' it up.
