Emily and Joel's Wedding Pics

A couple months ago Erik's brother got married and I was privileged enough to take their photos. Here is a sample of their day! Congrats guys, we are so happy for the two of you. :)

Last months before Elizabeth turned 2

Here are some pictures of this spring. Wow has time flown, we just can't believe Elie is already 2. We will be getting some pictures up from her day and parties next week!

Elie LOVES her Sugarland!

Elie's favorite band is Sugarland, no matter what she is doing she always drops it to listen or watch!

What a great day!

Wow!! I can't believe it is all over! All that planning for one day. But, I have to say, it was an AMAZING day. The pictures are done and back from the photographer, record time. To see the slideshow go to http://www.brberndt.com/melissa/

I will be getting out family ones and all that in a few weeks, if there is anything you specifically want, just let me know and I can get them printed.

Halloween

Argg...

Summer is gone...

As Elie was putting on her coat, hat and mittens this morning I realized summer was gone. I started thinking of the great but busy summer the three of us had. Here are some fun captures of the summer.

One of the first days of warm weather,
she HAD to wear her Mexico dress!

Finally a new post

Okay... I know I know this needs to be updated.

So... we are not still stuck in a snowstorm anymore, thank goodness. But we are stuck in the crazy schedules of school and everything else that is going on. Lately we have been doing a lot of traveling to different events such as: my Grandparent's 60th Anniversary Party (CONGRATS to them!), three weddings in the past two weeks, and lots of our wedding planning.

Things are coming along with the wedding. It seems like one thing gets done and three more things get put on the list of things to do. But the colors and flowers are picked out. All the dresses are ordered, mine should be in in the next month. We have registered at Target, Pampered Chef and Gander Mountain. Invites are being sent out right before Thanksgiving. And, this weekend we are having our Engagement Pictures taken by our photographer Ben. Soo, all in all things are happening. We are soo excited and can't wait to share the day with everyone. Keep praying for good weather!

Elizabeth is growing faster than ever. She talks all the time and is always wanting to learn more words. She loves acting like she is older than her actual age. Her favorite past time is playing with all her babies; feeding or changing their clothes, taking them for walks, reading them books. She is adorable and wonderful. We have some stray kitties in our parking lot and every time we come home or leave in the morning she looks for them and says "Mow". If she sees any she gets all excited and has to say hi and wave. What a peach.

School is crazy an very busy. We are both taking full loads and trying to finish up. This is both of our last semesters!!! YAY! I have portfolio presentation in 10 1/2 weeks, how scary!! This semester is going to fly and we are not going to know what to do with ourselves. It seems almost every night after Elie's bedtime routine one of us is heading out to do homework.

Well, I better get going, class is awaiting my pressence. Hope all is well with everyone, I will soon get pictures of the little one up!
