So tomorrow...


Will be exactly 30 days till I'm officially Missy Morgan! How exciting!
Wedding plans are coming right along. I think these are the slowest 30 days ever but I do remember when my little count down clock said 119 days! Wow! Crazy, huh!?! Im ready for the celebration to begin and for the other half to move in!
We had a great lingerie/dinner party last weekend. My sister and her friend planned the whole thing. It was perfect, she could not have done a better job. We had a yummy dinner of pork tenderloin that my dad made with rosemary potatoes, salad, and cupcakes. Michele decorated the table so cute (im sure you can imagine--its a lingerie shower, use your brain!). 
Before dinner there was a slideshow that Natalie made, it was absolutely precious. Friends sent in pictures and she made a slideshow of it. 
We enjoyed the great dinner and played some games =)
After dinner was the best--lingerie part! I got some great gifts, they are so wonderful and cute! I dont think I had to take back anything, how amazing! Thanks for everything friends!!
Dana made a great dance party mix and dont worry, we had a dance party! It was so much fun! We ended up at Hollywood Disco and dropped it like its hot a few times and headed home =)
I missed those of you who couldnt come. Here are some pics! The only downer from the w/end was that I didnt even take out my camera. No fun pictures of me and friends, so here are the ones that were sent to me! 

My sister got these cute cups for the party! 
Highschool friends, Carla and Angie! 

Im having trouble uploading other pics, ill try again later! ta ta!

Birmingham Shower!

The sweet girls how threw the shower with their parents. 
I love you girls, miss you tons!
The bride with her groom! =)
Friends at the shower!
Did the heart good to see these girls!
It was so great to see our friends this past weekend. We enjoyed hanging out Saturday night at Lo and JD's house. It so warm and cozy. I loved it. We had great food, great company, couldnt ask for anything better!  We got some great gifts and we are so thankful. 
Andrew and I flew Friday night. Andrew got to see an old friend. I stayed with Natalie friday night. We relaxed when we got to Natalie's house. Saturday we had a great lunch at Diplomat Deli and then I met up with mom in Mnt Brook to shop. We looked for mother-of-the-bride dress for mom, she found some great stuff. Cant wait to see what she picks! 
Then we had a fun shower! It was wonderful!!!
Sunday we got to go to Mnt Brook Community Church-felt great to be back there. I miss it so much. After church we went to Panera with the Drehers. Mom left soon after lunch and all day Sunday I felt sick so I just slept on Natalie's couch. Andrew was a bit stir crazy but we were soon on the plane again and back in Dallas. 

The wonderful hostess.
All our friends at the shower! We love you guys!

Ive been working on this degree slowly since I finished my intern and took a break this summer when I moved to get somewhat adjusted while starting a new job and picked up my last class this fall. Its official--I have an additional 2 letters by my name, MS!

One Year Ago...

Fort Worth.
Me on a Longhorn.
Its crazy to think back to 1 year ago. What were you doing a year ago? 
Last year to this very date, I was in Dallas visiting my now-fiance! This was the weekend that we went to Fort Worth, stock yards, and he told me he loved me. Crazy how you remember these things.
It was also the weekend that one of my bestest friends got engaged, that night she asked me to be her maid of honor and I was oh so honored. I love the Powells!


The bestest who got engaged while I was in Dallas.
Happy 1 year Engagement Mrs Powell!
