Love this time of year.

So I may be a little Early.... but I ordered cute and simple Easter cards to send to family and friends. I am excited. It has been beautiful weather here in Texas and things are going great.

Love and miss you all.

One Month Down

WOW! Time really does fly. I can't believe I have been married a whole month.

Seriously though, it doesn't even feel like we had a wedding. Looking back on it, I think to myself, all that arguing and planning and stress was for what exactly? It has come and gone and life is great.

For those of you who didn't know. We went to Savannah,Georgia for the first part of our honeymoon. We stayed at the Hyatt, which I recommend for anyone. It was amazing and they were so nice to us. Of course when in Savannah, visit Paula Deen....Hey Y'all!!! =) The Lady and Sons was on our list. It was just good home cooking. Jordan and I really enjoyed it.

Also, Savannah is the town where the movie Forest Gump was filmed. Jordan is a big fan. So we walked to Chippewa Park and took some pictures. However the bench that Tom Hanks sat on, is not there anymore. It is in a museum. Figures!

We left Savannah after two days and headed to Shreveport, Louisiana. Longest Drive ever! But worth it.

We stayed at Sam's Town hotel and casino. It was a gift from Jordan's unlce. Had dinner, saw the town, visited Bass Pro and won 300 dollars from a quarter slot machine.. =) Oh yeah Great Trip. We had a great time.

Now its back to life and work in Texas. Jordan and I have a cute 2br/2b apartment. Of course I've been in decorating mode. It is only a half mile from the Fire Station so it's super nice not having to get up at the crack of dawn for him to go to work. I am subbing a lot for a few schools. I will be back in school by May and then it will be on to find a permanent job. I will be happy when that time comes.

I am really happy with life and things going on right now. Also excited for upcoming events this year.

My maid of honor, Ashley is getting married July 20. I started selling Thirty-One on the side and have had great success with it. I am planning to go to their conference in August with Martine.

Christy Russel is pregnant and expecting in October and Jordan and I are flying to Atlanta for Thanksgiving to drive up to the Smoky Mountains with the family!!! SO VERY EXCITING.

I am going to make it a goal to update my blog more often. I love hearing from you all and miss everyone at home in Florida. So plan a vacation to TX.

Much Love,

Connie Russell

 Call us crazy, but we also celebrated our first Valentine's Day together as a married couple. We stayed home though because we were just tired of being on the go. We watched Lady and the Tramp on the New Edition Blue-Ray and I made Spaghetti for supper. It was a great night.
