I'm MARRIED!!!


Yes, I am married to Brett Turner, the love of my life!!! On September 12, 2008 at 6:30pm is when I walked down the beach, said our vows and became Mr. & Mrs. Brett Turner! :o) The wedding was perfect and the weather was great (for those who do not know, our wedding was at Hilton Head Island on the beach). I did cry a little which made Brett teary eyed (but he will not admit it), we made it through the vows and then when I attempted to sing....all went down. I had surprised Brett by singing "From This Moment On," only two versus though. That is when all my emotions hit me along with nerves. Brett was so surprised and said I did a great job. :o) The ceremony went by so fast and when I think about it, I remember it all. We had 16 guests at our wedding, our close family! The reception was very casual and at the beach house my parents had rented for the week. Our wedding day was perfect and what we both wanted. I do not have my pictures back yet, but when I do, I will post some. :o)

We are back to reality and now there are changes happening (some we did not expect at all). Brett found out the day he went back to work, 3 days after our wedding, that he is losing his job November 7th due to restructuring. Wow, that was an awesome gift from his company. But the good thing is, he gets two months of severance pay and benefits.....now it is time to find a job in this horrible economy. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as Brett submits resumes and prepares for interviews.

Ok, now I have bad news for all my scrapbook friends.....I am officially leaving A's next Saturday, October 4th~~this will be my last mania. :o( I love working there and hosting manias, however there are other things in my life that are important and other things I want to do. If you can make it, try to come to mania on October 4th~this will be my last. But, there is an upside, I can start using my coupons.....hehehe!

Oh yeah, the picture above is from graduation, May 2008.

Well, other than that, our life is great! Brett and I are exploring our options at this moment and we do not know which path God has in mind for us. The path we would like, we are hoping it all works out because it is a dream of ours that will come true. I will keep everyone posted! :o)

Need to Update.....and I was tagged! :o)

Ok, I am sorry, I know it has been a while but my life has finally somewhat calmed down. Here is a little update of my life:

1. As of May 10, 2008 at 10am I am officially finished with school. I am a graduate of Marketing which I obtained from Brenau University. Now it is time to start paying off my student loans and possibly start my Masters in a couple of years.

2. Just think Brett proposed to me on August 1, 2007 and in THREE months, we will tie the knot! I can't believe how time has flown by and I still have a lot to do.

3. My job it GREAT! I still love it, even though at times it can be stressful, it is a challenging job and I love challenges.

It's been a while.....sorry!

I am sorry for not posting in a while, but I've been extremely busy! Since my last post my life has become somewhat less stressful as far as school, but there are other things that have happened since then.

First, I am counting down the days till my graduation on May 10, 2008 at 10am! I have three more classes, four more months to go and I will be done. Then my sister is having her second baby, Samantha Dawn Price, sometime in February. My brother will be graduating from high school at the end of May, I can't wait for him to graduate....he has accomplished so much this past year with his grades. Then September 12th, will be here before I know it and I will officially become Mrs. Brett Turner! I have almost 8 months to go....yet I feel like I have so much to do. I need to find a dress, find a location (waiting on my grandparents timeshare information), determine what kind of food to have at the reception (thank-goodness only 15 people to feed), make my message in the bottle invitations, get our marriage license, and so much more. But we did get some things knock off the list of the "to-dos," our Save the Date announcements made and delivered (oh so cute!) and our registry. Brett had so much fun scanning everything, I think he really enjoyed that....I had my camera and totally forgot to take pictures.....and I scrapbook.....apparently it was not on my mind. 2008 will be the best year for me and Brett! We have so much to look forward to.

Ok, now for the things that suck in life....the little things that could be big ones. Our family found out that my Grandpa has a tumor between his skull and brain and Thank God and his angels for watching over him, it is NOT CANCEROUS!!!!! I am so relieved by that when we heard the news! The tumor he has is the smallest in the whole world and he is very lucky. They are not planning on removing it now, but will keep a watch on it every six months. But now the doctors have to figure out why he is going blind on occasion for up to five seconds (that he says seems like forever). Please pray they do find out what is going on with that.

Then my dad, who I love so much and I am a "Daddy's girl!" He is having surgery January 17th and having part of his tyroid or all of it removed. The lumps they found our NOT CANCEROUS but they are going to do the surgery anyways. Brett and I will be with my mom and dad for a couple of days to be there to help out and such. Please pray that everything is successful and nothing goes wrong.

Ok, I am all updated....thanks Laurel for reminding me about this....I finally have time while I am on break from school!

Oh, check out our wedding website:
