Showers, Weddings, and More Showers!!!

So I realized I have been really bad about doing this whole blogging thing, which sucks because I really do want to do it!! The problem is, the ONLY thing going on in the life of the Fleury's these days is bridal showers and weddings, so there really isn't a lot to report. (Seriously, I/ We have had something every single weekend since August!!) But it is all for something so wonderful and special.

So as most people know, my baby sister Kristen is getting married on 12/11/10 to Matthew Stokes. And even though pretty much everyone knows this already, I am the one that set them up on their first date!! (along with my dear friend and former co-worker Jill Vogt), so the fact that we are counting down to their BIG DAY is as much a big deal to me as it is for them.

Kristen and Matthew have had some beautiful showers from dear family friends on both sides pretty much every weekend so I wanted to share some pics from those showers, as well as the AWESOME bachelorette weekend I threw for her in Athens, GA this past weekend. We had SO much fun all weekend, but the highlight (in my opinion at least) was Saturday night when we reserved a private room for a couple hours at a Japanese restaurant called Shokitini and had our own private karaoke party.

I also attended the wedding of my cousin Drew to his new bride Kristin last weekend and could not be happier for this beautiful couple!! I have never seen a more loving, beautiful, excited couple on their wedding day as I did with Drew and Kristin and I am so happy to have been a part of their big day, congratulations to you both!!

Enjoy the pics from the last few weeks!!

SYTYCD!!!

Last night was my annual Girls Night Out at the So You Think You Can Dance concert tour, and as usual it was a great night of performances!! I went with my friends Hilary MacIsaac, Caroline McNeely and Leslie Finger, and we enjoyed our annual tradition as much as ever!! I am including a few pictures I took at the show, but since my camera is a POC they aren't great, and don't do justice to the FANTASTIC seats we had this year!! Everytime I go to the concert it makes me miss my old dancing days, but I do love that dancing shows have made such a comeback in the last few years thanks to reality tv shows like Dancing With the Stars and SYTYCD, always great entertainment!!

The Life of a Cat

Need I say more? These kids definitly have a nice life!!

Happy First Gameday Weekend!!

So this weekend was the first Auburn football game of the season, War Damn Eagle!! Needless to say, Jason was VERY happy on Saturday, as was I! We had a fabulous night watching the game, eating and drinking over at our friend Tommy's parents house with Tommy, Kate, Amanda and Jason along with some of Kate and Tommy's friends. Thanks for having us yall!! But I was definitly most excited to spend some time with my favorite Roomie, Amanda. I always look forward to our visits, especially since they are few and far between with her and Jason living up in Chicago. But I am looking forward to being a part of their wedding in a couple months!

Luckily, this next week will be my last week only working 2 days a week. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE only working part-time, but it can definitly get kinda boring just sitting around the house some days. But now that the weather has been cooling off I have enjoyed taking some daily walks around the neighborhood. We live in the BEST neighborhood and we have a ton of walking trails and sidewalks so I definitly enjoy my daily walks!

Anyhoodle, that's all for now!!

A Little Bit About Us...

So for my 2nd post I thought I would tell a little bit about us. I won't go too far back b/c that's a lot of years (30 to be exact, we are getting old!!)

Jason and I met in college at Auburn University, during his senior year and what my dad refers to as my "victory lap" aka my 2nd senior year. :) Ironically, we had a bunch of mutual friends all throughout college, but didn't meet until the fall of 2002 through some of my sorority sisters. We started dating and 3 1/2 years later got engaged right before Jason left for New Haven, CT to begin grad school at Yale University Medical School in the Physician Associate program. A year later we were married on August 25, 2007 and 2 days after that I moved up to CT with him while he finished school.

In December 2008, Jason graduated and we moved back to Atlanta with our first "kid", our cat Hamden, and in with my parents while we saved up to buy a house. In June 2009 we bought our first house and a few months later adopted our 2nd "baby", a sweet kitten we named Bella.

That's all for now!!

My First Blog!!

Hey everyone!!

So after reading friends blogs for years, I have finally decided to join in on the fun and start my own blog!! I'm not sure how often I will post, at least until I figure out what to talk about, but who knows, I will probably get as addicted to this whole blogging thing as I am with good old Facebook! Haha!! Anyhoodle, that's all for now!!
