Go Deo?

"Go Deo" means Forever in gaelic (Ireland's old native language). Forever has meaning for Mike and I because our first dance at the wedding will be to Forever by Ben Harper. On our first road trip to Montana the song came on in the car, we were on our way to Big Sky ski resort to bask in the sunshine. He said "when I get married I want to dance to this song." Melt a girl's heart!

I went with Forever in gaelic because we met on St. Patrick's Day almost 6 years ago and the holiday has always had fun meaning to us both. I like to say the luck of the Irish was in our favor. You'll find that as the wedding draws nearer and at the wedding there will be very subtle pieces of the Irish theme worked into our day.

I found this picture from New Years a few years ago and loved that the date was on the wall and loved even more that we're still together...Go Deo!

Christmas and New Year Fun!

For New Years Eve Mike and I stayed at a gorgeous lodge about an hour away from Billings. I seriously felt like I was in a movie. We partied in a little spot called the Piney Dell Inn. One of many cocktails. A New Years Unicorn.... Big smiles before the new year rang in. Sleepy dog in Montana. More sleepy dogs on Christmas morning in WA. Pirate patches from Santa...makes sense right. This is one of my Grandma Moro's Christmas cactus's. She passed a way about 5 years ago and this cactus continues to bloom throughout the year. My Grandma Moro loved Christmas time and I can't help but feel she's near during the holidays when her plant is in full bloom. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everybody!

10th Annual Ornament Exchange!

All the gals...including some very new ones! However

I'm not sure what happened to our 3 year old (Jillian)...she was probably admiring her

new Hello Kitty necklace and bracelet.

Merry Christmas everyone!

The Happenings Around Here...

O Christmas Tree! And so the holidays begin! A beautiful noble tree, 1,950 lights, a roommate and best friend...priceless.

AND...

The victory crowd waiting to enter The Coug... The girls...as you can see we're all smiling from ear to ear. Butch! Oh the glory! This was still shining bright the next day. Go Cougs! Renting this RV was the funnest, we hooked up down behind

Sellas and had heat, running water and plenty of beer. It was super cost

efficient and I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Babies! Babies! Babies!
