Wedding Festivities, BRITNEY & Our House is for SELL!!!

I made it with pussy willows I bought at Seibels awhile back. I just used spray glue and then glued each little willow onto the paper mache bunny and the eggs. This is the kind of stuff i would love to do for people, so please pass the word around!!
Okay, next...BRITNEY was awesome! She's back and looking great! Allen and I had such an AWESOME time together it was ridic! Here are some pics but they just didn't turn out that great. Those of you who are familiar with Philips Arena know that the Club Level seats are great but they pics just doesn't do them justice.


So after a weekend of Britney and the Georgia aquarium, I came back and worked until Tuesday and then its off to Selma for Ashley and Charlie's wedding. Ashley and I rode down together Tuesday night and met Becky at the Selma Country Club for dinner, which was yumalicious! We got up Wednesday morning and Ashley and I hopped in my car (my extremely full car) and headed to Carillon Beach, its right next to Rosemary Beach. Ashley, Becky, Honey, Papa, John Allen, Allen and I all stayed in an awesome house until Friday. Here's a pic:
On Friday we all relocated to the Carillon Inn which was equally as nice. On Friday all the friends and family started to trickle in for the wedding. It was so much fun because we all got to hang out at the beach all day Thursday and Friday because the weather was SO NICE! Thank goodness! On Friday night we had the rehearsal dinner and a Meet and Greet that followed the dinner for all the guests at 30-A Cafe in Seaside. Here's a pic:


On Saturday we all woke up and the girls had a brunch at the house we were staying at that was given by the bride's family and the guys had a breakfast to go to given by friends of the groom. Here are some pics:

Then after the brunch we all headed to the beach for some relaxin before the wedding. The weather forecast called for 80% chance of rain but low and behold it turned out to be a beautiful day and never rained ONCE!

Our eventful life!
So, most of you know by now that our house was broken into last Thursday afternoon or morning. We don't know. The police think that they had been casing our house and knew when we were gone as well as our neighbors. They came in through our kitchen window and went straight for our new flat screen TV in our living room and then proceeded to walk straight out the front door with it. My first reaction was that they had hurt Harvey and I was going to kill someone but they didn't. He was just as happy as he could be when we got home that afternoon. We have been thinking about putting out house up on the market because we need more space, this just verified that we needed to move. Its not that we live in a bad area of town, its just that the burglars know what houses to go to and they are very sneaky about it! So, wish us luck trying to find a house! Here's a picture of what is left!
Also, I know a lot of my friends now what is going on with Allen and I trying to have a baby. So, felt like I could write something about what was going on with us and give everyone an update. We finished our first month of Clomid with no success and are about to start with the second cycle. They have up my dosage to 100mg and are hoping this works. I am hoping for a progesterone level around 15 when I get my blood taken on Day 21, this past time was .04!!!!!!! So disappointing! Please keep us in your prayers and I'll try to keep everyone updated as we move through this process!

So, I've been sucked in again
I also have to admit that Allen and I are addicted to watching The Bachelor. We love it! I haven't watched it in years but surprise...I got hooked! I pretty sure all of you out there have a "secret" show you watch that you really don't want anyone to know about. Do spill.....
I thought I would throw this picture in too, Liv's first ponytail. It's kind of messy but she wouldn't stand still. It's soooo cute though!

The sweetest baby......
I took these pictures the other night of Allen and Harvey as we were both laying in our usual positions on the couches, watching American Idol. I swear sometimes I forget how spoiled Harvey is because to us it's "normal" for him to lay under the covers, sleep on our pillows in bed or eat off our forks at dinner (hehe). I know the later sounds really gross but I know some of you out there do it too! Here are a few pics of Harvey sleeping with Allen on the couch...he is such a muffin! Also, I am going to post a picture of Olivia's bedroom. I took some pictures the other night because I realized we've never shared any pics with anyone and a lot of friends haven't been over to see Lin's house so I thought you might enjoy!
