First off:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!
What are you, 43??
Love you tons, you are the best father I could have ever asked for.

other updates:
- It’s cold
- we have so much snow in the driveway i have to do a complicated turning radius to get in
- things are busy
- american idol started again
- brian got a new computer and i’m so happy for him
- he also finished reading book 1 of twilight
- i made my gramma’s spaghetti sauce on monday which was quite a triumph
- gave a meal to some friends who just had a little one
- i have 7 bridal consults in the next 2 weeks, and i’m happy + overwhelmed but managing better every day as I put it in God’s hands
- the weirdest part about it is how i’m suddenly looking 4 – 18 months into the future and evaluating everything and where will i be then, how will this work, etc. i’m not used to such a long-term outlook.
- a few of my friends have been so supportive during this time and i can’t thank them enough. i know i can be needy and when my friends see it and are there it just makes it all easier.
here are a few pics of my booth from the bridal show, plus a model who had really pretty hair. I have all the materials stored in my basement all wrapped and preserved so I can re-use them next year!
Now I’m just going to keep plugging away and stay warm!

Rachel,
You’ve got me quivering in my boots! Good thing you’re not in my zip code. I’d have to close up shop and sell used cars.
Your booth looked great. Happy New Year

DUDE! These are awesome! Everything looks beautiful. If I lived anywhere near you, I’d have dropped by just to touch all the pretty things and ogle the large prints.
