The Sexy 7: Megan, Courtney, Katie, Lindsey, Lauren, Lynn, me
Just Engaged!
The date we got engaged
About a month before the gift exchange, Katie's boyfriend (now fiance!) will pick names for the gift exchange and then email who we have to buy our present for. It works out great because it's always a surprise who we have. This year I had Lindsey and bought her a pedicure. I thought she could use some pampering since she's 8 months pregnant. Katie had me and I was super excited about my present.
She gave me an engagement ornament for our first Christmas tree next year. Since neither one of us has ever had a tree, we are definitely in need of ornaments for next year.
Just Engaged!
The date we got engaged
Katie currently lives in Chicago and told me that these fleece-lined leggings are all the rage there. I was actually on the hunt for some new leggings and these are super soft and super comfortable. I love them!
These leggings are amazing!
And for those who are curious, I was informed I forgot to mention what I gave Todd on Christmas. His big present was a cooking class at Sur La Table and then I got him a bunch of smaller things like a few DVDs, a cutting board, a serving tray for cheese or appetizers, and a bottle of mead from Brothers Drake Meadery. If you couldn't tell, Todd loves to spend time in the kitchen & cook.
His new serving tray which, knowing him, will probably be used for cheese & crackers
