One year down....

Well, Mike and I celebrated our one year anniversary this weekend. What a quick year. It seems like it was just yesterday. To celebrate, we left the crazy city and went away to a cabin tucked away in the woods right outside of Helen, GA. What a great way to escape.
We carried out the usual tradition of eating the cake topper and toasting with champagne. The cake was ok, but we drank the champagne that I had won from Carnival last year on our cruise. After one sip, it was apparent why they were giving the stuff away. It was NASTY! Luckily, Mike felt the same and we poured it all out and went back to our reisling and beer.
After an extended four day weekend, I had a really hard time getting up and going to work this morning. I do have good news though. I finished our wedding scrapbook! I worked on it for about 8 hours yesterday and, at 9 25 p.m. last night, I put the finishing touches on the last page. What a relief! I am so excited and proud of my work. Feel free to ask me about it next time you see me!
Here's to many more years!!!!!

Wow! I suck at this!




Gosh. I haven't posted anything for over a month. Ok, I promise to get better at this. Parker started pre k and is doing fabulous. He has learned about the four senses, saying please and thank you, family, farm animals, and community helpers. He is getting along well in a class of 7 girls and 4 boys.

The Jacobs Family tree now has another leaf on it. Baby Ella made her debut on August 28, 2007 and weighed in at a whopping 8 pounds 14 oz. She is absolutely precious. Caroline is a proud big sister.

Amy started a new hobby. She is a Creative Memories scrapbooking consultant. http://www.mycmsite.com/sites/amyjacobs If anyone is interested in booking a party, please let me know. Scrapbooking has become my new obsession. My first endeavor is my wedding album. I am finally tackling the 1000 or so photos I have from the big event. It is a pretty hard task to weed out photos given that we such a fantabulous looking group of folks in our wedding party.

Mike is biting his nails and watching each Boston Red Sox game as if it were the last. It think we are only up on the Yankees by 4 and a half games. I, knowing nothing about baseball, could be completely wrong on this though so don't quote me. Mike says that if they blow this lead, it would be the greatest upset since '76. I think. Don't quote me on that either.

Well, I guess that is about all for right now. I do need to add in some images from my girls night with Anne and Angie. These girls are my bestest friends. As you can see, they dressed up in wedding dresses, I opted out and wore a veil.

Later!
