oh yeah!

I have some more news that I forgot to put in the last post...

Last week I found out that I got a promotion!! YAY! Next week I start my training and will start as CSR2 at the end of January.

Merry Christmas!!

I know its a few days late but I've been a busy girl!

The first weekend of the month, we had a little get together to exchange gifts with our friends.

The next weekend was the bachelor/bachelorette party for our friends Jen and Gabe. They guys went down to Tampa and us girls just hung around town. We all had a great time.

The weekend after that was the wedding. It was BEAUTIFUL!!! I was the matron of honor so I was busy girl all weekend. We had such a wonderful time. Jen and Gabe are great for each other and both looked so happy.

That brings us to Christmas. Bliss's parents came up here Christmas eve day. We then left on Christmas day and headed up to Gatlinburg, TN. It was nice to get out of Macon for a long weekend and was really nice to get to spend time with family for the holiday. We didn't think we were going to be able to see anyone since all our vacation time had been used for the honeymoon.

And here we are, time to go back to work. boo. Luckily, we only have a 3 day week then another long weekend!!

Hope everyone had a very merry Christmas!!

They are up!!

Now the hard part of going though them all and picking the ones for my album!

Christmas is coming!!!

When I got home from work today, I found this!!

Bliss and our friend Troy did it :) They were up on the roof in the dark drinking beers. Smart men, but I love them.

1 month

I can't believe its been a month already. Married life just flies by! :)



Our wedding photos came in! They came out great! I'm really happy with them. I'm going to post them on the dotphoto site so check them out. Don't forget to upload yours too. Here are the directions on how to do that. Or you can just look at them here. The password is wedding.

There isn't much new going on here. We are both working like normal. I have been lucky enough to work days for the past 3 weeks. Bliss had to go to Oklahoma City for 1 night but that was it. Same ol' same ol'.

We aren't doing much for Thanksgiving. Since we don't live near anyone and don't have any vacation time, we are going to stay home and celebrate here. We had some friends invite us over, but we decided to just stay home and relax. Because of a lack of observing on my part, we do have some turkey breasts so I may cook those up for us and make a pseudo Thanksgiving meal. We'll see. We have a lot to be thankful for this year. We have great family, amazing friends and each other. What else could two people want?

Hope you all have a happy Thanksgiving!! Eat some turkey for me!! :)

We're Home!!

We got home from our honeymoon yesterday. We had a great time and got to relax a bit. But...let me start from the beginning!

The wedding was great! We had such a great time!! Here are a few photos that got uploaded to the photo sharing website we set up. If you have any other photos, here are instructions to upload them to the site. You can just look at more here. The password is wedding.















We stayed in a wonderful bed and breakfast, The Venetian Mansion, here in Macon on our wedding night. It was great. I would highly recommend it. The owners were so sweet and the breakfast was yummy!

The next night we stayed at the The Glenn in Atlanta. It was nice, but we weren't super impressed with it. The other places we stayed were comparable in price and much nicer. We did have a great view out of our window.







We then went up to Cloudland Canyon State Park. The original plan was to camp for 3 nights but it was FREEZING (literally) and we slept in long johns the first night. The next morning, at 10:30, it was 24 with the windchill. What the hell kind of honeymoon is spent in long johns? :) So, we got a cabin for the next two nights. It was beautiful. We will be going up there again sometime when it isn't so cold. We drove around explored the 2nd day.









On Thursday we moved on to Chattanooga. We went to Rock City, Ruby Falls, and the Incline Railway. It was really cool. Its amazing how nature does such beautiful things. We then checked in to The StoneFort Inn. It was awesome. The people were so nice. Breakfast was included and was really good. Again, highly recommended.











We went to the Aquarium on Friday and acted like kids. I love aquariums!! Friday night we had a fancy dinner then took a relaxing soak in our outside tub.







Saturday we got up and headed home. The trip was easy and didn't take long at all. We had such a great time and I saw a bunch of places I want to explore next time we go back. I'm not sure why we haven't gone before. I love Chattanooga.



Now, back to the same ol' life, just as Mrs. Jourdan now :)

ITS COMING!!

Our wedding I mean :) 10 more days! I'm getting excited for the big day and all of that, yet a little nervous when I look at the list of what I have to do. I'm sure it will all come together. Bliss' mother and grandmother will be here on Monday then my mom, sister & family, father and step mother, grandmother, 2 aunts and an uncle will be here on Thursday. So there will be plenty of help for last minute things. Of course I have my friends too. They are always willing to help me out. They are great friends.

Last weekend was Bliss' bachelor party. He and some of his friends went to Destin, FL to go deep sea fishing. He had a great time. My party is this weekend. We are going up to Atlanta and going out to a club. I'm excited! I plan on having a great time. :)

Only 2 more days of work this week, then 2 days next week, then I'm off! I don't have to be back to work till November 3rd! YAY!

Alright, off to scratch some things off my list!
