Okay, so yes I agree, it has been quite some time since I last blogged (i've been reminded by quite a few people!!) But since my last blog I have been so blessed to have gotten busier with work. I now work about 3-4 days a week in Gwinnett for a WONDERFUL dentist who I just love, she is so sweet and passionate about what she does. And then I also work 1 day a week in Alpharetta for a very high end dental office, patients at both offices always get a kick out of the fact that I travel so far for work. But I don’t mind it, not now atleast. Until Wesley and I have kids, I’m okay with commuting, i'd rather commute to work than make him commute to school everyday (how sweet of me, yes I know!)
Here is a picture of my room at one of the offices, I love my view!!
Speaking of Wesley, my smart fiancé did wonderful his first semester of pharmacy school. Came out making all A’s and one B+. So proud of him. There is nothing he cannot do I swear!! I am so proud of you Wesley!! Here is an adorable picture of him I found at his house, makes me so excited about someday having a mini Wesley running around.
Okay so Wedding talk time… I made a few changes. Changed my mind about doing the black and white waverly theme, and fell in love with peacock feathers. So don’t be surprised if you see peacock feathers in the wedding.
Also, here is a pic from the bridal show that I attended with my Mom, Nana and future MIL. Im just late getting the pictures up!!
Speaking of weddings, my best friend and maid of honor got married in October! I am so happy for her. It was a very emotional day for me, why?, because I love that girl so much and loved seeing her dream wedding take place. Here are some pics from her wedding.
Beautiful Bride!

My Best Friend on her wedding day!!
Bridemaids update. In October I was able to meet with all the bridesmaids and let them try on different dresses. It was so much fun having them all together. I am so blessed to have such wonderful friends. Well the girls all decided on which dress they liked best and I hate to say it but I am positive that I have the MOST BEAUTIFUL bridesmaids EVER!!! After trying on dresses we all went to Chilis to have dinner with my amazing mother and enjoyed eating way too much food and laughing way too loud. It was such a good time, other than the excessive caloric intake. Unfortunately I dont have the pictures yet on my computer so I will have to upload them later!!! :(
A few weeks later my mom and I picked up my wedding dress. Getting that phone call that it was ready was so surreal. We went and tried the dress on and that’s when it all set it, I am going to be marrying the love of my life in that dress. Thank you mom for helping me pick out the dress!! I love you more than you will ever know!! :)
Wesley also went and got fitted for his tux over the break, here is a pic I snapped of him while we were talking details for the wedding.
Here is a picture of my sweet Gracie, sorry just had to throw this in there.
So even more exciting news, Wesley and I signed our lease for our FIRST place together. We are so excited. It’s a beautiful apartment complex in Athens. We are so excited to have our own place and own privacy as a married couple. It was so surreal signing the lease without any parents being involved but I guess that’s just part of growing up. Here are some pictures from the signing day.

Christmas this year was especially important, it was my last Christmas at home with my family and oh how bittersweet it was. My mom and I definitely had our crying spell J There is nothing more that I want than to marry the love of my life but leaving my best friend/mother will be the hardest thing ever. Thankfully I have a fiancé who I know will help dry my tears those times when I really miss home and thankfully we wont have to be away from our families for that long, just three years then we can move back closer to home.
All the sugar cookies we baked and decorated Christmas Eve!
The Yummy treats we baked hundreds of for all of my co-workers and our friends.
So this last week was absolutely filled with wedding planning. My mom and I met with the owner of the wedding facility for 4 and ½ hours on Tuesday! We talked about everything from the dinner menu, to the centerpiece decorations to what we want to have thrown as we walk out. At the end of the meeting my eyes were spinning and I was definitely feeling overwhelmed. Were meeting again this Sunday to talk more, I never knew wedding planning was so involved but I am just so thankful to have such wonderful people in my life helping me with this process. That afternoon we met with the DJ for our wedding.
Wednesday was filled with buttercream icing and cake, lots of it. Wesley and I, along with our mothers went cake tasting! After three different bakeries we found one that we just LOVED. The Cake Box in Griffin, GA had the most delicious cakes and Wesley and I both fell in love with a wedding cake and grooms cake from there!!
Alrighhty that’s it for tonight, sorry so long but that’s what happens when I wait 4 months to update, I promise ill TRY to update more often!! J Leaving you with a picture of me and my man from New Years Eve, our 6th one together!!
<33 Brittany
