a new start!

This weekend, Lee and I spent most of our time packing and dumpster diving as Lee likes to call it, for boxes! We got our entire kitchen packed up in boxes with the exception of a few things we'll need for the week. Our entire living room is packed and ready to go..with the exception of our TV! The bathroom is packed up..with the exception of necessary toiletries..you get the picture! We spent a LOT of time doing this! Friday nite we hit up our fav mexican joint one last time..sad but soooo good! We headed over to the hospital to pick up some boxes and then met up with Hope and Bobby at the movies for Bobby's birthday! We went to see "He's just not that into you!" HAHAHA! The movie was great!! HOWEVER, if you were in Hope's situation you most DEFINETLY wished you had picked a different movie..awkward! But it made the whole thing seem more funny. I told Hope to look on the bright side..the sequel to that original book is called.."You're not that into him either!"..well according to Suzanne, I've read the original but not the sequel! Anyway, the movie was funny and I loved it!
Saturday was the packing day! It literally took us the entire day to finish and we were exhausted! My apologies go out to Hope and Chad who invited us to a party Saturday nite...would've been wonderful but we just couldn't swing it! Love you guys! Instead we finished our evening by relaxing on the couch. I made my homemade spicy tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches! YUMMY!! after a little couch time we went to bed!
Sunday was great! We got up and headed to church..yes, I got to show off my ring to everyone! :) hahaha! Then we met my entire family for lunch at shakers as a last hoorah/goodbye/engagement party! Jenny and Chase came along too! The food was so yummy and we had a great time. After lunch we went downtown to the coffee shop to meet with our photographer..for more on that refer to the wedding blog! :) Last nite we packed a little more and watched a great movie! Mr. Magoriums wonder emporium! Ok..it was on TV and I had recorded it and thought..why not?? I never imagined it would be soooo good. WE loved it! I love whimsical movies like that! It reminded me of Willy Wonka meets Dr Doolittle meets the Santa Claus! If you haven't seen it, I recommend it! I want to read the book..you can tell its good! :) That was our weekend...our last one together in Roanoke and it was fabulous!!...PS the snow is gorgeous and even though I left my apartment later than usual and had to walk much slower..I still made it to work on time! weird..
