Hamilton Family

The year of 2011 brought me a a ton of memories and one of the most amazing changes in my life. Wedding planning took over a large portion of my year and all the things that come with getting married: bridal showers, bachelorette parties and all of that. I can't believe that Payden and I are officially a married couple. Our wedding day and our reception are two days that I will never forget and I am so blessed to be married to my best friend. I was not the only one from my group of friends that got married in 2011 so I was a very busy lady playing the role of bridesmaid and friend and going to a million showers, parties and weddings for all of those around me. I am so happy that so many of us got married in the year of 2011 because it brought us many bonding moments and great memories that we will forever share. The year of 2011 brought me so much, but the whole year wasn't a easy road. The school semesters were rough and I had a very rollercoaster relationship with family duri

Payden and I celebrated our "first" Christmas this year. We have spent every Christmas together since we have started dating, knowing that this relationship was in for the long hall but this year was our "first" because it was the first one we celebrated as a married couple! I will forever cherish this season and remember how happy we both were. We had such a great time at both sides celebrations and really enjoyed everyone's company. Not to mention we got soem really nice gifts, which is always a plus. I am so excited to see how things change every year at the holidays as both sides of the family grow and as we decide to start growing our little family as well. (No need to panic, these are just thoughts, nothing is set in stone and NO we are not currently expecting...). I am just really excited to see what the future has in store for everyone in our lives. And I am really looking forward to what the year of 2012 brings us all!! Here are a few pictures fro

So I have been planning to graduate this upcoming May (2012) but Wichita State has decided to change the graduation requirements for my major, which has added 10 hours needed for me to graduate, which now means I am aiming for graduation in May of 2012 now. It makes me super mad to have to add another two semesters to my schooling, but there is no point of over working myself and trying to take a ton of hours just to fit graduation in this May. So keep you fingers crossed this new plan works out and I can finally become a college graduate. Mandy, my best friend is almost 5 months pregnant and it is so crazy to be apart of this journey with her. I can only image how I am going to be whenever Payden and I do decide to start a family. Mandy is dealing with this whole thing really well considering it wasn't a planned event. I am so excited to see if the baby is a boy or a girl and to finally be able to meet the little one! So much is going on and it is so strange to think that I am a

With this Holiday Season I have alot of Christmas trees in my life. Christmas trees are one of my favorite things about the holidays and they always put a smile on my face. I decided to dedicate a whole post to the Christmas trees in my life. First and most importantly to me, Payden and I's first tree as Mr. and Mrs. It might be small but we are happy with it and it makes me happy to finally have our own tree and to start traditions betweent he two of us. At work there are alot of trees. Rusty Eck Ford is very obsessed with trees, we have four on the show room floor and people have them in their own offices or departments. Here are the trees I see on a daily basis while at work. The main show room floor tree that my friend Larry decorated. It took two days to decorate Then there are the themed trees that we have on the show room floor. The Wichita Thunder Tree The white themed tree   and my favorite themed tree the Willy Wonka tree The tree in my personal office at wo
