WE ARE PREGNANT!

So its been half a year since I blogged - sorry - life has been quite busy ;) Our Russell Family will be expanding in April 2015 ! We are so excited to meet this little person and new addition to our family! so far my pregnancy has been great and I have felt good for the most part. 1st trimester I was somewhat tired at nights and didn't have the best appetite but otherwise - all great!

I will hope to do more updates as the time gets closer and the little one arrives ;)

Merry Christmas!

Day at the Park

A few weeks ago after work, Jonny and I took Cole to the park that is right by our house! He loved it and it was so fun to take him! I look forward to many more park days with him!

Happy Spring!

Love this last one...... ;) 

Spring is ALMOST here....

Sorry its been a while. I haven't been the best at keeping this updated and am sorry for those of you who read this :)

I am much better at instagram ( www.instagram.com/mererusell19  ) as its faster and on my phone,  so this takes a back seat, sorry :(

Spring is almost here......I can't wait! Longer days, more time outside, landscaping projects we want to do, etc.... I can't wait!

I just had to pop in and say HI !!!! I hope to be better and blog more often this spring and summer if anything exciting happens!

Cole's 2nd birthday

I am behind on Cole's birthday but our sweet nephew Cole Cameron turned 2 on Dec 23rd :)

 I was actually able to go this year (had the flu last year) so I was SO excited. He had an "Elmo" themed party and he was in heaven playing with all the kids and being the center of attention :)

He is the sweetest little thing and I can't imagine him not being in our lives....we love you to the moon and back Coley Cameron :)

Here are a few pics of his BIG day  :) I still can't believe he's 2!!!!!!

 

 

Our Wedding - Oct 2013

I know this post is LONG overdue. Time got away from me after the wedding, then the honeymoon, and now the holidays....tis the season :)

Married life is wonderful and we are enjoying it!  I can't believe its been 3 months since our wedding...seems like it was just yesterday. We wish we could go back and do it all over again and again. 16 months of planning for a 3 day fun fill weekend!

It was a wonderful fall October day!  I still haven't gotten all my pictures back from our photographer but here are a few random ones and some snapshots from our friends that they took and a few from the professional photographer (more to come).......

We are very blessed to have wonderful family and friends and we love you all so much. It was the perfect day! We are looking forward to the future and what it holds.

Thanks to all of you who were there with us that day and I am so excited to finally be Mrs. Russell :)

 

 

T minus 26 days.....

I can't believe in about 3 weeks I will be Meredith Russell :) Sounds so funny doesn't it? Different after 35 years of having "steen" as my last name if will feel weird to give that up but I'm excited for next chapter in our lives ;)

I'll post pics after the wedding and get back on track of blogging! Sorry!!!

Til then,

Meredith Steen :)

M.I.A

Sorry I have been so bad about blogging....I guess you could say this wedding has taken top priority! HA :)

I don't have a lot to post except we have been spending lots of time with family and friends ....and planning our big day.... 2 MONTHS to go!

I can't believe it! It will feel so good to be finally married and Mrs Russell :) (I still think I should be Mrs Steen-Russell ) :)
35 years with Steen as my last name......its hard to let go ya know!

This next month I have a bridal shower that Monica and some good friends are throwing me....and my bachelorette party in Kansas City! I can't wait!  Then our honeymoon to Mexico in November!

I will try and post some pics next time......until then....Happy Summer everyone! Can't believe all the kids will be starting back to school here soon.....crazy how fast it goes!

Love - The Steen-Russells  (for 2 more months..haha) :)
