Merry Christmas!

Well would you look at that! 2008 has definitely flown by even quicker than last year! I can't believe it's already Christmas again... We're at about 3 months left until the wedding (AHHHH!!!) and, obviously, I'm just about ready to go insane :)

Tyler and I spent the past few days in Bandera, Texas near San Antonio at Medina Ranch. You should look it up, it was seriously amazing! It's this wide open area full of all kinda of animals... Raindeer, Antelope, Zebras, Caribou, Deer, Foxes, and Elk. I posted a video of Tyler on Facebook interacting with the animals that has me laughing every time I watch it!

We did some shopping in Boerne, the guys played golf, we cooked every meal, played Apples to Apples, watched home movies, had a little pool tournament between me and the guys (Normally I can hold my own, but this trip Tyler beat me every game), and had shared plenty of laughter while Blaine (Tyler's sister, Kelly's husband) video taped the entire trip.

So this Christmas we shared in the gift giving with both Tyler's family, then my family, and then with each other all on Christmas Eve night. I absolutely love his family and couldn't be marrying into a better set of in-laws. They have already accepted me as one of their own and I feel completely blessed to be apart of it very soon.

94 days... but who's counting?!

Tomorrow morning, I'll be leaving with my family for Arkansas to visit the Talley's and then head over to Dallas to spend Christmas with the Burleson's! Tyler has some work to do here in Katy so he was not able to make the trip :( but he will be greatly missed!

Once I return, there will be much more wedding planning to do such as picking out the fabric for bridesmaid dresses, officially registering at places for shower and wedding gifts, and starting to look at ideas for invitations!

Hope you all have a wonderful Merry Christmas and may Christ bless you and your families in the coming new year!

Love from us both,
Aimee and Tyler

Hellooo!

How awesome is this?! Now you can find out everything there is to know about Tyler and I being engaged and getting married (as if facebook wasn't enough)! We've finally set the date for March 28, 2009 and we couldn't be more excited :)

For the most part, this blog will just be me updating about our lives but maybe every once in a while I can twist Tyler's arm to write an entry or two ;) We're sending out our "save the dates" the first of this next week so be checking the mail for your little reminder.

Things have been so crazy with all the planning we're doing in so little time but we just really didn't want a long engagement- so we're making it work! Please please please pray for us and our families, that we actually make it through this process without killing each other (mainly my mother and i) and actually get to enjoy this time we have.

Tyler and I are planning to stay here in Katy and I'll be moving into his house in Falcon Point. I'll actually be kicking out his roommate (sorry Mike!) but we are loving the idea of still being close to our families and friends.

Stay tuned for exciting updates!
Aimee (soon to be Hennessee) Talley
