I feel like all things in my life are finally falling into place! I have a great family, wonderful fiance and future son, and a great career. I honestly don't think I could ask for more.

Some great news! Almost four weeks ago, I joined Weight Watchers. I feel like I should mention this because this is definitely part of MY wedding planning. So far, I've lost 11 pounds. I am thankful to have many supportive people surrounding me! My friend, Lori suggested that we start walking because she's wanting to get healthier too. I am soooo thankful for her because losing weight is so much easier when you have someone doing it with you (even with all the support)!!! We have went walking the past two nights. The first time, we walked a mile and a half. Last night, we walked almost 2.5 miles! We are going again tonight and I hope we beat both of those distances! We are working up to walking around 5 miles! There is no doubt in my mind that we will be able to do it! Every time I look at my left hand I get more will power! I want to look my best for my future husband! We are going to Jamaica for our honeymoon, and I'm going to do my best to get a bikini body for our trip!!! I'm off to a good start!
My walking buddy, Lori, and me!Last night, I talked to my younger sister, Amanda. I miss her very much! Since she moved to Scottsdale, Arizona, it seems I talk to her more than I ever have. I guess we both took for granted our time living so close! Hopefully she knows she's missed! She's planning her wedding as well. She will be getting married next year in Vermont on May 24th. My poor parents! Two weddings, less than one month from each other! I'm sure that's a lot of stress for my mom, especially having one daughter that is across the country!

Ashley, Kristy, me, and Amanda at ThanksgivingI also talked to my mom last night. My older sister, Kristy is due to have her baby in February. Little miss Ava Kelly is growing by the minute! I heard that my sister's belly button is disappearing! I can't wait to see her! She sent me some ultrasound pictures to my e-mail, and from what I can tell, Ava has a really cute profile! I can't wait to be an aunt! My cousin was the last baby in our family and she's 21 now! Time goes by so quickly!

Like I said in a previous blog.. This is going to be an awesome year! I'm counting down the days until mine and Jerry's families combine! I hope everyone has a blessed day!
