One Wedding and Two Christmas'

One Wedding and Two Christmas' is exactly what this past weekend consisted of...
It all started on Friday. One of Michael's great friends from college, Patrick Jones, was getting married and asked Michael to be a groomsmen. The wedding was in Opelika/Auburn. Patrick had the guys on a tight schedule (my type of guy)... The groomsmen were all staying at the Hotel and Conference Center so I dropped Michael off there on Friday afternoon and went shopping.. LOVE IT !!! I checked into my hotel and got ready for the Rehearsal Dinner.
Michael and I (yep that is us) before we walked into the Dinner !!

Russell is one of Michael's Best Friends (he was his best man at our wedding) and was also a groomsmen. I know Michael loved seeing all these guys. They were his best friends at Auburn and are still very close.
Patrick and Michael on Wedding Day.. Don't they looked so Handsome !!

Some of the Groomsmen at the Reception
I am going to be honest... I loved being in Auburn and being able to enjoy it without one zillion people there.. But even more than that I loved seeing Michael all dressed up in a tux.. He looked so handsome and made me think of our wedding day.. What in the world that was almost 6 years ago, but my man still looked hot in a tux !!
Saturday night after the reception we headed to Prattville for Christmas number one. Michael's Sister, Stacey, and her family are moving to St Louis and stopped by for a quick Christmas on their way there.
Sam, Stacey's husband, with his Florida Sweatshirt that we got him.. He loves the Gators as much as Michael loves Auburn.. So as long as we get him something that has to do with Florida he will love it. And since they are moving from the heat of Tampa to the snow of St Louis, I think a sweatshirt will be needed.
Stacey with one of the gifts we got her. It's a perfume bottle (i loved it, in fact.. I think I may be getting one too)
Out of all the presents we got Alexis the Tinkerbell Lip gloss was her favorite.
Here is Alexis showing her " Dar-Dar" Grandmother the Lip gloss.

I hate that it was such a short visit, but glad we got to spend time with Stacey, Sam, and Alexis..
Sunday we woke up and drove to Fayette, Alabama (small town about 45 minutes north of Tusculoosa, where my parents grew up), Home to McCabe Family Christmas !!
I am one of 12 cousins, plus aunts,uncles, and grandparents.... that all equals craziness and many pictures.. So Christmas #2 will be my next post !!!
