A few weeks ago I got to go home and see these precious kiddos! I went home to do some wedding stuff--trying on dresses, b'maids dresses, ect. It was great. I had not seen my sister since we got engaged. Mom and Michele picked me up from the airport. We got home and the house was decorated in wedding bliss! It was so much fun. Wedding bells and decor were everywhere. 

My sister, tyler, and ellie got there early Friday. It was a beautiful day and much of it was spent outside. Tyler loves his little sister so much. He is very sweet to her and loves to hug and kiss her. Its adorable. I would have to say Michele and Tyler are blessed with great kids. I hope to get that lucky one day! (but not for a LONG time!)
I loved seeing both of them. I havent seen Ellie since she was born--8 months ago! Crazy! Today my mom was in KY with everyone and asked Tyler who was getting married. Tyler's reponse was "Missssyyyy!!" Then she asked who Missy is marrying, and Tyler said, "Diego!" haha--thats my sister and tyler's yard worker. So great!
We had a champagne toast Friday night when I got home! Tyler wanted to participate! This was after the first time I tried on Michele's dress. Sweet little Tyler will be the ring bearer. He is excited. It will be his second wedding!
Saturday we did dress stuff! Im getting to wear my sister's dress which I couldnt be more excited about. It fits, oddly enough-a little snug but it zipped. We have to take it out a little bit but thats it. I love it! First and last dress I tried on! Its perfect for me and the veil is amazing. This dress was Taffy's wedding dress (Michele's mother-in-law). Michele redesigned it for her wedding and now I get to use it. I know I look naked but I cut off the dress so Andrew couldn't see. I have tried showing him the pics of the dress but he wont look. So I figured I would stick with it till 2/28/09!!! =)
Ellie had her first girl's day that Saturday. We went to the alterations place first for the wedding dress. After that we went to lunch. We wined and dined at Fire Fly in G'hills. It was so yummy. I recommend it to anyone who has not eaten there before. My sister and I sipped on much wine and headed to Cotton Mill--damage could have been done but luckily we didn't see too much we liked.  Ellie was great hanging with the big girls.  We had a blast!! 
I loved seeing a little blonde toe head run in my room both mornings at 645am (waking up early to cuddle with him was worth it!).  Its been fun seeing him grow and learn new things. He is a motor mouth and doesn't stop during the day. Its great. I wish I had one ounce of his energy. Ellie is beautiful. She doesn't bother anyone, loves everyone! She is at the brink of standing on her own. 
Needless to say, it was a great visit home and I cant wait to go home in Nov to see the family again! 
131 days till the Big Day!! Woop!
