Our Newest Adventure

I have been meaning to write this blog since this summer, but better late than never!

Joe & I are on to our biggest adventure of our lives: we have a little boy due to arrive in 8 days!

We found out in late February, and let me tell you how fast the last 9 months have flown by....I cannot believe we will be parents any time soon.

I have been working on some projects for the baby's room that I am excited to share with you, but for now, I will leave you with a few pictures from the last 9 months.

Surprise!

Me and the baby's first photograph :)

We took our parents out to dinner to reveal Baby G's gender.

I'm still not sure if Joe was happier he was right about the baby being a boy or that he was a boy!

At the beach for Joe's birthday - 25 weeks.

Our little pumpkin at full term - 37 weeks.

So, there's nine months of growth in a few pictures :)

We can't wait to start our next adventure as a family of three! When will that be, little guy?

Two become three :)

Last Weekend's Update

Wow have I been busy. Between my cousin's wedding, our first anniversary and school, ay, I haven't had a free moment to say hello to the bloggy-blog world.

This past weekend, we were happy to share our "wedding date" weekend with my cousin Richard and his beautiful bride Cynthia. Here are some photos from the wedding. It was a great way to kick off our first-anniversary weekend by watching others we love make the same commitment!

Joe and I started by meeting some family members for drinks up at the Top of the Mark bar at the Mark Hopkins in San Francisco.

Sisters & Cosmos

Paul decided he didn't need to wear a tie since Joe showed up without one!

We were unable to snap any photographs at the ceremony, due to the fact that it was at gorgeous Grace Cathedral and the ministers at this church did not allow any. They were serious too, I saw a minister talk to at LEAST two people about it in the middle of the ceremony. It was a beautiful service, and it was nice to hear some of the same readings that we had at our wedding a year ago. :)

The reception was down the street at the Renaissance Stanford Court Hotel on Nob Hill. The food was amazing (maybe the best we've had at a wedding this year and we've been to FOUR!) and it was decorated the way maybe I wish I could have gone back and done our decorations! Oh, Cynthia, you and I have such similar, classic taste!

Loved this display on the escort card table!

Cocktail hour!

I loved the centerpieces! A perfect height to carry on conversations around the table!

Cake table! Oh wow those cupcakes were delicious!

Me with the handsome groom (my cousin Richard!) and his wife Cynthia!

Cousins! Kristen, Richard, me, and my sister Kim

Family! Teri, my mom, Richard, Kristen, my auntie Betty, me, Kim and Doug.

Looking good at the reception!

We had a blast at the wedding and possibly came home with a napkin full of cupcakes. Cynthia, Richard, if you're reading this it was Kristen's idea :). Joe and I hope you are having a fabulous honeymoon!

What a great way to kick off our anniversary weekend!
