Back in DC

I have been out of town and not posting, but I am back! My mom, sister and I went to Charlotte over the weekend for my cousin Megan's bridal shower. Its been almost a year since driving down, the last trip being a 12 hour trek right smack dab in the middle of the December 2009 blizzard. It was fun to see Megan again, play silly bridal shower games (one of which I won!), visit with the grandparents and other family, and just generally have a lazy weekend. While there we went to the Southern Christmas Show, which was Christmas on steroids and sold lots of little crafty and infomercially gizmos. Bridge and I bought gifts for the men in our lives, which I just realized I can't tell you about or I'd ruin the surprise. Someone remind me after Christmas and I'll fill you in. Since I spent today unpacking, doing laundry, baking pies and addressing STDs (save the dates, but this abbreviation cracked me up when I saw it on a wedding blog) I don't have too much of interest to share. So, I thought I'd send out another wedding post that I've had sitting in my 'too post' box for a while now. The theme of the weekend was, after all, weddings. (Well, and Christmas, but we'll get there after Thanksgiving).
