2008 in Pictures

I figured that it would be a fun idea to wrap up this past year with some pictures of the highlights!
In April, Steve and I went to our favorite place for a long weekend... the Smokies! We had a nice weekend away and were able to make some additional arrangements for our wedding.

We stopped at Maker's Mark Whisky distillery on the way home and got to dip our own bottles of whisky.
Shortly before baby Ashlynn made her grand entrance into this world we had Kristen's baby shower...

And on May 25, 2008 Ashlynn Rae arrived! We have had such fun this year watching her grow and learn new things so quickly!

Now that the baby was here, the attention turned to our wedding that was fast approaching! In June and July we had three showers thanks to our generous family, friends, and co-workers!


And finally on August 11th, I became Mrs. Carrie Bruns! Every day that goes by, I am more and more in love with Steve and see how perfect we are for eachother!

In October, we decided to take a long weekend and head up to the Mackinaw Island area and check out some of the fall colors. Lucky us, we picked the perfect weekend and got to see the colors at their peak!


Freezin our butts off on the ferry over to Mackinaw Island!

And as if we hadn't had enough fun this year, Steve took me to Fair Oaks Farms in Indiana on my birthday. It was really neat to tour a dairy farm and get to see two calves born on my birthday!

The "Dairy-Go-Round" where the cows come to get milked.

Brand new baby calf- so cute!

Hope you enjoyed my quick little look back at this past year. I'm looking forward to 2009 and hope that it's even better than 2008!

Make sure to read below to see pictures of Ashlynn's 1st Christmas!

Carrie, I remember you from Meg's wedding and even before that she would talk about you. Thank you so much for your words of encouragment and prayers, they really mean a lot to me right now. You and your hubby look so great together!
