Nicole & Gina's Store Opening!

Today our friends Nicole & Gina had the grand opening of their bridal boutique in South Pasadena! It really seems like 2008 is going to be an exciting year for everyone!

A lot of people showed up to celebrate. Nicole, Gina and their husbands Ryun and Sean really did an amazing job getting the store set up and decorated! It was so beautiful - and the gowns were exquisite!

They had some nice hors d'oeuvres set up - I felt so guilty because the baby was making me very hungry!! I tried not to clean them out of food... ;) But I was camped by the food for a while!

They really did a wonderful job with their store, and I can't wait to see how it does! They've already been very successful at booking appointments with brides who are interested in purchasing gowns!

New Year's Eve

Our friend Walter put together a New Year's Eve party that was thrown at our house... we had a wine tasting and video game night... it was a lot of fun! Obviously I didn't try any of the wines, but I had a lot of sparkling cider! :) We had two game systems set up, so of course most of the guys were glued to that for most of the night, while the rest of us sat around the dining room table and talked. It was great having people over to the house... I actually feel like the house is finally "done" being decorated, save for the baby's room. I'm glad we were able to get that done before the baby comes.
