Our Visit with Matt's Family!

Matt's Aunt Terri, Uncle Nick, cousin (Cressie) and her boyfriend (Chase) came to town last weekend for a visit. It was so good to see them. We all went to a Cardinal's game on Friday evening. We had a great time even though it was really hot and we had standing room only tickets. We were able to sit down around the 5th or 6th inning. It was really cool to be in the new stadium and Chase (Cressie's boyfriend) is a big Cardinals fan so I know he enjoyed it! Then on Saturday we took them to Ted Drews (St. Louis' famous custard) and to the arch Saturday afternoon. Saturday evening we just hung out watching movies and eating icecream! We had a great, relaxing time with them. We hope to spend more time with them because they are only a 5 hour drive away!

Cruise Slideshow!

My friend at work (Carin) helped me put a slideshow together of all the pictures from the cruise. Thanks, Carin. Enjoy all the pictures and YES the cruise was definitely as fun as it looked!

Carnival Cruise 2007

Sorry it has taken me so long to get some of our cruise pictures up. I have lost my camera cord that connects/loads my new pictures (Mom is it at your house?). Anyway, I got these pictures from my little sister. We had a blast on our cruise. Thank you Mom and Tom for planning, paying and making this cruise so much fun! We love you and appreciate all that you did to make this trip possible!

Out to Breakfast before the Cruise!

Matt and I wanted to see his family before we took off to go on the cruise with my family so we met them for breakfast at First Watch. It was so good to see them and be able to spend some time with them- even if it was just for two hours. We love them and enjoyed having breakfast with them. Love you Grahams!

We got in a HUGE fight...

JUST KIDDING! Boys will be boys! Matt went and played ultimate frisbee with the youth group and some members of our Church on Tuesday night and this is what he came home with- a big black eye. This is how the story goes....it was the first play of the game, Matt and two other guys jumped up to catch the frisbee and well Matt took an elbow to the eye. He was sure to tell me that he was the one that came down with the frisbee in his hands though. The black and blue around the eye seems to be getting worse by the day, but it will heal eventually, right?

Wedding-Full Weekend

This past weekend my friend from work, Carin got married. I attended her Bachelorette party, help decorate her reception hall and enjoyed the Saturday evening wedding. Carin looked beautiful and I have never seen her so happy! Congrats Carin and Michael. Enjoy Mexico!
