16 Days, and 1 hour, and 45 Minutes!!!!

Eric and I can't believe how close our wedding date is. We both don't feel like it's real but we're thinking once we get through finals it will seem less surreal. We are also so excited about Christmas. We are already planning a gingerbread house making challenge. I held a center where me and my preschoolers made gingerbread houses. I should have taken a picture of what these four year olds did... it was amazing. Anyway, I have extra materials that Eric and I can use. I also want to watch the Grinch 50 times and Elf 52 times to catch up to me and Rachel Orr's rate from last holiday season. Well, I am so excited about everything that is going to happen in the next three weeks. It's mind blowing... I am going to be married? In two weeks? I'll have a husband!! Crazy Crazy!

Engagement Pictures!

Ok, guys, I'm giving in... I didn't want you to see our engagement pictures until they came out in our invitations but I am having trouble choosing the best one. Help me out!!! I need your input.

On a more serious note... Thank you so much for taking our pictures Mom and Kate. Thanks for working with Eric and I, even though we are goofballs and we aren't always the best at cooperating. We love you and thank you for all your time to help us out.

THANK YOU!!!

I also have to remember to give a special thanks to Michele. She feeds Eric and I Subway with her dining plus all the time. We are so grateful for her looking out for us. She always thinks of us when going to eat on campus. We always enjoy this time spent with her and her good friend Sarah. They are so fun to be around. Thanks Meesh! Love, Eric and Jillian

Hello Friends!

So, it's been too long since I've done two things. The first is blog... the second, and most important thing I have neglected to do, is to say hi and catch up with some of my very best friends. I have been playing phone tag with some of you. As silly as this sounds, sometimes even a missed call from any of you makes my day because I knew you were thinking of me. I just have to say that I love you girls so much and I am so grateful for how you have touched me. All of you have made me so happy as I have felt your love and support throughout the past decade or more. I want you girls to realize how grateful I am for you even though we all live in different places and play phone tag. I can't wait to see my best friends again soon!
