Today was Allison's baby shower! Her precious friends at church put together the most spectacular party. We were amazed by all of the time and thought put into each and every detail! And let me just say that this baby girl is going to be the best dressed baby girl that there ever was! I have never seen so many cute clothes!! Allison is SO LOVED by SO many people and that was proven once again at this shower. She has so many wonderful friends because SHE IS such a wonderful friend...and sister! I was proud to be by her side today for such a sweet celebration!
Baby Girl is should be arriving sometime very soon. She is due exactly one month from today, however we expect her to come earlier.

Reasons why being a RENTER stinks...
While there are some benefits to renting, there are also things that STINK about it. This weekend, we arrived home to find that our landlord did this new "paintjob" on the front of our townhome. If you think you're seeing seafoam green...you are. If you think I like it...I DON'T!
I stood outside in the front yard staring at these awful green windows for about 20 minutes. Then, I started looking for houses online to move into. Then, I said a few choice things about our landlord. Then, I railed on and on about how ugly our house is now and that I just don't think I can live here. Doug was a little scared of me...that might be putting it lightly. Completely AGAINST his nature, he called the landlord (at my demand of course) to notify him that quote..."Holly is not happy about the paintjob!" Yes, he threw me under the bus, but at least he made the call! We've been told that it will be reversed. Hmmm....it better get "reversed" or I'm gonna be "reversing" myself right on out of here! Uh oh, this might mean that I am high maintanence afterall! That's a joke! I KNOW I AM!

Our Trip in Pictures
Here's a little montage of the pictures we took on our trip to New York City. Most of the pics are self explanatory. Some are not, so I thought I'd provide a little bit of insight: You'll see pictures of the place where we stayed, The Hephzibah House. We also captured some Dinos for the Goodyear kids (both at FAO Schwarz and the Museum of Science and History). There's one picture of a crowd gathered outside the Broadway show, Equus, starring Daniel Radcliffe (aka Harry Potter). We stood out there and waited to catch a glimpse of him, but he was so stinkin' short that we couldn't see him! There's a picture of a subway rat that's hard to make out...it's the one of the ground with the trash. Yay! You'll also see quite a few pics of the World Trade Center site. Someone went a little bananas trying to capture the construction of the new Freedom Towers. Enjoy! We sure had a fun time. We've already sat down and made a list of all the things we want to do next time we visit!

The Big Apple...AMAZING!!!
We just returned from what was one of the best trips EVER! We had the pleasure of attending my sweet friend, Leighanne's, wedding in New York City. We left last Friday morning and returned late Monday night. It was a wonderful time FULL of fun and excitement! I'm working on a little montage of photos, but I thought I'd go ahead and post a few of the trip highlights now...
On Friday evening, we went to see The Phantom of the Opera on Broadway. It was fabulous!!
On Sunday, we got to meet Courtney, Jonathan and Emi for brunch at Sarabeth's...again...fabulous!!
And then there was the main event...the beautiful wedding and super fun reception for Adam and Leighanne.
On Monday, we rode the Staten Island Ferry around the Statue of Liberty.
This trip was so much fun and we're so happy that we got to go!!!
