The first few weeks of January were very hectic as we got ready for Laura's wedding on January 18th. Everything turned out very nice, and we had a wonderful time visiting with all the family. Thanks to Eric (Amberly's baby who was due on Christmas Day), Laura and Adam decided not to plan a Christmas wedding. It was so nice to visit with everyone, enjoy the wedding, and not have to worry about Christmas and New Years celebrations on top of it all.
My two handsome men Laura's Wedding!
Sofia and Rachel were very excited to have caught flowers from Laura's bouquet, UNTIL someone told them that whoever catches the bouquet is the next to get married. They quickly disposed of their flowers.
Nikki didn't even try to catch the bouquet!
It's a good thing too because we're in NO hurry to marry her off!
After the wedding, Amberly asked me what I was going to do to occupy my time since my part-time wedding planning job was finished. I said, "I don't know, but I'm sure I will find something. I always do." It wasn't two days later when Amberly, a couple of our cousins, and I were talking about Amberly's upcoming trip to Paris and wouldn't you know... I found my new project!
I'm organizing a two week trip to Rome, Paris, and London with Jose and the kids in March!!! We are SO excited. It has been a whirlwind of planning, but I finally have our tickets (trans-atlantic flights, night train from Rome to Paris, and Chunnel from Paris to London) and I've decided on 3 of the 4 hotels we'll need (still debating on Paris). We also applied for the kids' passports - and believe it or not, they came in ONE week. Now I have 4 weeks to finnesse our sight-seeing itinerary and learn French and Italian - hahaha!!!
If you have any suggestions on must-sees let me know.
