Oh boy...has it been 2+ months

I can't believe how time has flown and the last time I posted was June 17th! So much has been going on and the best way to capture it all would be quick bullet form (very efficient). So, here we go:

• Bachelorette Party: Mom and I took a road trip to NYC in June to celebrate Monica's bachelorette weekend! We went to a place in Hoboken where you can make your own purses, had an awesome dinner on the river and then went into the city to Carnival. Picture a carnival, complete with games and prizes, for adults. It was a blast!
• Birthdays: We have had a bunch of birthdays! Mine was on July 3rd - had a low key day with breakfast at the Log Cabin and then a surprise dinner with the whole family. Mike's birthday was August 1st which included breakfast at the Log Cabin (yes - we love that place) and a steak dinner. August 5th was Gianna's 2nd birthday and we had a little party at school and then had a family get together on Saturday (complete with bouncy house)!
• Transition to the New House: As of July 10th, we are now the owners of a single family, 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home on 1 acre. We have loved it so far and have been focusing on getting everything unpacked and trying to grow grass (it's harder then it looks).
• Wedding Preparations: We are all gearing up for the wedding of the year on August 28th; The nuptials of Monica & Brian! Gianna and I just had our dress fitting yesterday, shoes have been ordered and the final details are being handled! We are all so excited and can't believe it is less then 2 weeks away!!
• Lastly, as you can see in the pictures, Gianna's shirt says 'Big Sister'. Yes - we are pregnant due with our 2nd child in early February! Gianna is excited and understands that mommy has a baby in her tummy. It will be a busy fall and winter.

I've included a bunch of pictures below to highlight a few of the things that were named above and many more that weren't. I'm going to try to post more and not be so distant from our 'blog fan's'.
