a birthday weekend.

I (Amber..seriously, you should have known that because Jeremy has yet to write his own post :) ) Anyways, I went to Fort Wayne for the weekend to hang with the fam and celebrate my dad's birthday. Now, I am really blessed because along with my family being really supportive and loving, they are also pretty cool and funny and now that I am 21 and not 16, I like hanging out with them :)

After running errands with my mom and sister, my dad came home and we had a dinner that I think I will actually be able to make for Jeremy! (Seriously, I have 8 months to become a good cook). So, I hope he is ready for a lot of chicken tacos :) After dinner we went to Target to get the most amazing game ever- Phase 10. The Lee family introduced me to this game and I've wanted my parents to play it ever since... and 4 months later, we finally did :) Seriously, if you want some entertainment you should go to Target and pay $4.99 to get this game. It will most definitely produce some "Uno! Dos's!" out of your mom and some "5,6,7,8,11, wait.." out of your sister. I told you my family was funny :) In case you are confused, the outside of the game looks like this: After that fun night, we celebrated my dad's birthday!!! The day consisted of an early church service, Bob Evans (first time I ever cleared my plate from there) and then hanging out until a jazz festival in downtown Fort Wayne. Fort Wayne has an annual huge festival called Three Rivers and Sunday night was the final night.. After the festival were the best fireworks ever. But before any pictures, I want to give you a taste of the talent my sister and I have been given.. just click the play button on the picture..

Happy Birthday Dad! I hope it was a great weekend for you :)
It's on to Banquets this week at the Hilton and so far, it looks like it might be a relatively easy week.. except that I threw up tonight. i don't think I've thrown up since I was in a crib but apparently something in my stomach was at war. After some OJ and homemade muffins (thanks mom), I am feeling better :) Anyways, I'm enjoying my final weeks at the Hilton...and so excited for the light I see @ the end of the tunnel :)

Sweet dreams!

We are the Lee's!!.. well, not quite. On March 6th, 2008 Jeremy proposed to Amber and on March 27th, 2009 we will finally be Jeremy and Amber Lee. After the "I do's", we will be starting a new life in Nashville, Tennessee, far away from our friends and loved ones. We want to stay in contact with everyone so we've created this blog to give updates and hopefully hear from you as well :)
