Ties ... Save the Dates ... and Engagement Pics

Hi Guys,
SO it's been an eventful month!! So to start with, the pink paisley ties that we picked for the wedding party were no where to be found. That would have been fine, except that we had 3 of the 5 ties already purchased. So after calling everywhere, including the company that makes the tie we were told that they are discontinued. Belk's in Birmingham Alabama happened to have TWO left, so they sent them to us after our frantic searching turned up nothing. They arrived today and YAY they are the same! (I was kind of holding my breath)

Sarah, Justin's Girlfriend, made us THE most gorgeous save the date magnets. They are so cute, and I can't wait to send them out! We'll be mailing them out on Saturday. I had to figure out how to export the address list that I have on Excel onto Word because that's the only way to print up the labels. I think I've gotten it figured out... we'll see!

Last Saturday Casey and I and the dogs (Shelby and Izzy) went up to the mountains for the day to take our engagement pictures (and christmas card picture) with Hope and Corey our wedding photographers. Apparently everyone and their mother had the same idea to go up to the mountains on Saturday to SEE THE LEAVES. I mean, yes, they were pretty and made for a great backdrop (which is why I picked that day) but really - have these people never seen leaves before? Maybe we're just spoiled because we grew up in new england, but they're just leaves. We spent probably 2 hours sitting in traffic as people would just randomly stop in the middle of the road to take a picture.

As soon as they are posted online, I'll share the password or post some of them on here. Don't be surprised when one of the pictures turns up on your christmas card :).

love you all!
