Thanksgiving

Our first Thanksgiving as a married couple was so amazing!! We had an awesome time catching up with friends and family... even ended up meeting Chace Crawford! pretty fun.

We put up our Christmas decorations today!!!! they are amazing.


It's perfect for our first Christmas :)
Stay tuned for my Christmas list, 5 things I love this season, and some redecorating in the sweet little apartment.

the wedding went so amazing!!!!! I'm so incredibly anxious to see all the pictures and the video! It was so amazing to see everyone. It was the most spiritual, unexplainable, moving experience of my life. the honey moon was so fun and relaxing, but we are just so happy to be home, married, and living normal lives!! I hope to start this blog thing regularly so everyone can keep up with us and our many many crazy times ahead.

love to you all!
lesley JARBOE! :)

2 years ago

i moved into our little green plex, promptly moved out 3 weeks later and into the pier landing. it doesnt seem like that long ago.... which is really strange. its so strange how much ive grown up since living in shreveport.

I moved into my brand new apartment last week! It's beautiful and I'm in love. The best part is that my sweet friend Kaci moved with me :) and we moved right across from my other loves, Mel, Binny, and Keek. Love. My.Life.

They are helping me plan this wedding while Michael tries to graduate :)

Speaking of, Kyle and Jana's Wedding was this past weekend and if I didn't get it that I was getting married before, I sure got it now! Seriously though, it was a beautiful wedding, and I'm so happy for our friends .

Everyone needs to come to Michaels graduation, Saturday May 8, 2010 at 10:30 am at the Centenary Gold Dome. He's the class speaker... I'm a such a proud wife-to-be!

I have currently lost 33.8 pounds.... im so proud of myself!!! Here is a before and after... woof.

I still have about 15 more to go, but i cant believe i actually did it!! it feels so amazing. I have to give credit to Jenny Craig and my support system ((who look AMAZING as well)) Melissa Wise, Britney Winn and Carrie Mercer.

Heres to a few more! haha i want chips and queso. kill me. :)

3lbs...

down! yaya!

6weeks

okay so heres the deal... i have not a clue if anyone reads this damn thing but im going to julie/julia this bitch and keep a log of not cooking, but my weight loss.

if you dont know i started the jenny craig program last october and ive lost 20 lbs to date. i feel so amazing about my loss but im not even half way to my goal. my wonderful friends and i are turning hard core and they are doing the 6 week body makeover and i have decided to just HARDCORE do this thing for 6 weeks. i have been doing this program but been MUCH more lax than i did at the beginning of this journey. so, im going to keep a blog of all of my success and trials and just to keep track and to keep accountable as well :)

i got all my food this week and i did well today until i had newks lol but i did well eating there but no more going out to eat. 6 weeks, i can do this. i can get the extra 25 lbs off :)
