Welcome!

This little blog started on our wedding website, which kept family and friends up to date on the planning and details. Of course this is where we will provide all of the recaps of the wedding and everything after. We look forward to keeping family and friends up to date on our lives here in Texas and all of the adventures we share as newlyweds!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month in case you didn't know!

Spread the word, donate, get involved!

There are a ton of ways to raise awareness through Twitter, Facebook, Blogs,ect.

Facts to Know!

  • Breast Cancer Suvivors are Counting at 2.5 Million Strong!

  • A woman has a little less than 1 in 8 or 12% chance of developing invasive breast cancer.
