The 27th!!!

So the number 27 represents a lot of stuff TODAY!

It is mine and Eric's 7 YEAR ANNIVERSARY today....Happy Anniversary love!!!! :) :)

It is 4 months TODAY until we are MARRIED!!!

It is my 27th post on my blog!!

I have a PHOTOGRAPHER!!!!

YAY!!! I'm sooo excited! This is one of the big things I have been stressing over! Its finally over!

Amber and I went a few weeks back to meet with Lorraine at Patterson Photography. She is SOOO nice and very talented! We looked through a few of her wedding albums and they were just very stunning pictures, plus I knew a couple of the brides or soon-to-be brides.

I just had to share that information with everyone because it is a BIG weight lifted off my shoulders!

Thanks Amber (I know I keep thanking you haha) but thanks for helping me with a lot of this stuff :) :)

So next on my list is FLORIST! I am thinking since my centerpieces aren't this big crazy set-up that I might just order flowers in bulk and put them together myself (with help of friends and family of course hehe). So we will see. I'm only wanting roses (see my color scheme photo in a previous post) for what my centerpieces will look like (hopefully). If anyone has any ideas let me know. We are calling Harris Teeter to see how much it would cost to buy roses in bulk through them (if they allow it) then maybe even Walmart. But any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Carly's in the paper :)

My sister was in the paper this past week :) I just had to clip it out and post it!! The scan didn't really come out to clear but you get the idea. Below is what it says to the right of the picture:

"Student picked, Carly Naegelen of Beaufort, a student at Peace College in Raleigh, has been selected to participate in the Inaugural class of Leadership Triangle College Edition, a new leadership skills program presented by Fidelity Investments that combines experiences and training to develop future civic leaders. Shown are, from left, Kyle Rose of Fidelity Investments, Mary Katherine Willis of Peace College, Ms. Naegelen and Jim Goodmon, Capitol Broadcasting."

I couldn't be any happier for my little sister :) Congrats! Love ya!!!!

Girls Night....Bday Party....Fun WeEkEnD :)

Friday night Kahla, Karli and I went on a date night with each other. We went to see "He's Just Not That Into You" I must say I know I'm a chick and LOVE my chic-flicks but this one I think even the guys would enjoy!! Granted my fiance claims he will never watch this movie but I'm sure he'll laugh at the same funny parts I did! The Atlantic Beach theatre was packed..as much as that theatre can be packed anyway for a 7 p.m. showing. At one point during the movie (not going to say what happened) but every woman in that theatre said "AWWW" like we were told to do as an audience watching a live showing of a tv show or something. Then of course we all laughed right after it! :) So ladies try to go see this in the theatre its totally worth it!!!

So after we left the movies we headed over to Arendell Room to just hang out and see what was going on. The place was pretty busy, but we just weren't feeling it there that night. So we knew a few of our friends were heading over to Jack's, this new place on Morehead Waterfront (worth checking out if you haven't already). Where we ran into some people we hadn't seen in awhile. So it was a lot of fun and an early night I must say, I was in bed by 12:15!! :) :)

SUNDAY was a LOT of fun because it was Ashlyn's birthday party!!! She was SOOO cute (as always). The party started at 2 and I think Kahla and I left around 4:30 or a little later. Below are pictures and a couple of videos from the party. Please enjoy :) :)

Two videos from Ashlyn's party. Sorry for the 1st one where its sideways. But it is Ashlyn singing in her microphone with her Pop :) :) The 2nd video is everyone singing Happy Birthday to Ashlyn and notice that she is singing too!! :) :) Gotta love that little girl!!!!!
