heidi's shower






this past weekend we had a shower for heidi drummond (soon-to-be casey) at our house! this was the first time i'd hosted a real planned party and stuff so i learned a lot about what all goes into it. we had some good food, fun decorations and lots of presents! we outfitted heidi properly for marriage as well as for our nite out after the shower! she was not a fan of the attention it could draw but it's all part of the deal! we even gave her some eagles iron-on undies so she could be a good fan for sam on game days :-) good times.

the faro hotel

well, no pictures to go with this post, just ramblings of my head. we've recently had insane numbers of people staying at our house on a regular basis. bear with me here while i recap a few. we had a new teammate and his wife during tryouts, some friends of aaron's from high school (who also brought more friends in a quick surprise event), another couple from aaron's old days, my parents, then my sister, and now another family (mom, dad and baby) that has recently joined the team...they will be with us for a few weeks. all this has transpired in the last month. needless to say we are blessed with tons of people that are willing to drive and visit us which is awesome! we also have been blessed with spare rooms (though small) for people in need to stay. so it makes for the perfect combo for perpetual hosting. that said...i now know that there is a limit to how much you can pack into a short month! so when all is said and done...i'll need to sleep for a long time to recover! and of course, aaron is not nearly as weary from it all as i am...figures huh..being laid back and all! good thing we have some balance in this house!

welcome to the whirlwind we call our lives!
