Life in the Girls’ Dorm

Over Christmas break I had this ridiculous idea to get out my wedding dress. I was thinking about how much it cost and that I only wore it one day! My whole family was together so I talked my sisters and my mom into getting out our dresses and having a fashion show! We laughed so hard putting our dresses on and remembering our wedding days. I think my Mom is just the cutest, her dress fit her perfectly! After that, we put them all back in the closet. Who knows when they will surface again.

I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas. We had a great time. My parents came to Chicago to spend the holiday with us. We were really busy the entire time, but it was so much fun. It was a perfect time of eating good food, seeing Chicago, shoppping, playing games, and laughing.

We also spent some time with my sister, Allison, and her family. We got to attend my nephew’s Christmas performance at his school. We had a really fun time with Allison’s family. Her kids make us laugh so hard. I got my hair highlighted while visiting them, so I am no longer a brunette…I am so happy to be blonde again. We went on a double date and had so much fun catching up with Ty and Alli.

Before heading to see my sister, we spent time with Brandon’s family. We celebrated Christmas with the Mick’s. Christmas was extra special this year due to three new babies! It was so fun to be around our nephews who are 6 mo. and 9 mo.

After a few quiet days in Chicago we leave again tomorrow to head to Des Moines for two weddings.
