The Burg Pictures

Don't ask me why it took a year to post these. This was back in August. We had so much fun in Lynchburg and were able to stay with Ben and Jess (jed's bro and his wife) and the kids. Also, we were able to hang out at the Ankeney's and the Webbs with our friends! We are ready for another trip back, as usual...

Wedding Season!

So, there really is no excuse besides, I've just not felt like blogging. Jed and I are getting ready for the slew of weddings coming on this fall. We've had a few that we've attended already but some big ones that we're in are coming up. Next weekend, Jessie is getting married! Jessie is Roxanne's sis. She's like my own sister and I love this girl. We've had showers already and have lingerie shower Thursday, rehearsal, and rehearsal dinner this Friday. The next weekend, Jed's brother, Wes, and my friend, Hillary, are getting married too! I'm pretty pumped and we're both in that one so we're ready to party! A few weeks later, Mary and Josh, a couple that we've gotten closer to lately (Josh was a youth intern in CO and overlapped while we were there and he and Jed became friends), are getting married. I spent much of high school knowing Mary and we're excited for them too. THEN, the second weekend in December, we're going to Texas for Austin and Elisabeth's wedding. Austin was a groomsman in our wedding and Jed will be standing with him as well. We just recently have gotten to know Elisabeth and she's a sweetheart....and guess what! They live in Memphis and we have couple friends! Yay. They're that couple that every time we see them (like Thursday for The Office night) we remember how much we love them and want to see them more.

Anyways, just thought I'd give an excuse for why I've been so absent. Also, this morning, Eli, Rox's baby, was baptized. Mike did the baptism, preaching, AND played the guitar for the music. WOW...poor guy. All the other staff were out of town. But, he did an awesome job and we partied at McAlisters afterwards.

I swear I'll try and update again soon!
