Happy New Year!

I know right two weeks have passed im sitll here wishing new year. But its still January 2011 has just begun and what a way to ring in the new year with a family wedding. *Meaning a new addition to the family * i hav a sister in law : ) As for the wedding it was very much so a family affair especially with gramps very hands on and involved with the preperations. Alhamdulillah everything went well except for some minor glitches. Like the ushering issue. Nevermind that, we are all very glad everything else went smoothly.

My big brother is a married man!! lol cant believe it. *So happy for both of them* best wishes for both and i  pray for them a lifetime of happiness.

It was fun,challenging, most of all tiring helping with the preperations of the wedding. Now that everything is done. Im in need to go to a spa for some relaxation time and pampering.

As for the new year i received a handbook for 2011 which i think will be very helpful to me. Since sometimes im just so serious and stressed. Im in need of guidelines.
