David and Diana's Wedding

It is always so much fun to celebrate at a wedding! Brendan and I have gone to our fair share of weddings but, his weekend was a first for both of us. We attended our first Jewish wedding which is completley different than anything we had experienced before. We had a total blast but for our liver's sake, I hope it's awhile before we attend another one :)

The wedding of David(Brendan's buddy from high school) and Diana was at the Georgian Terrace in downtown Atlanta across from the Fox Theatre. Brendan was a groomsman, so in addition to attending the super fun wedding, we also attended the rehersal dinner. Thanks to Ellen for capturing the weekend with her camera. Bren and I are awful about remembering to take pictures, especially asking for shots of the 2 of us so I can say I finally have a new profile picture that doesn't involve our wedding from 2 years ago :)

Rehersal Dinner @ La Baraonda! Super yummy and lots of Pinot Noir :)

A rough start to 2013...

Hey Yall,

I had been contemplating blogging about January or debating if I should just ignore the fact that January 2013 was quite possibly one of the worst months in the Bakers' (albeit short) history.

After going back and forth in my mind, I decided that ignoring the month of January also meant I would be ignoring all the prayers, well wishes and love that surrounded us in a very tough month. Before I go any further please know that I will never ever be able to say thank you enough to those that laughed, cried, loved,  and prayed for my family during December and January. 

Without rambling too much longer January was a rough patch for the Bakers. We lost my Grandma Nall on January 19th. It was hard to lose my Grandma but, I know in my heart that she is very happy to be reunited with her husband and oldest son. 

Also just days before my Grandma passed away, our dear friend Caldwell Robinson's grandfather passed away. Mr. Glenn was the smartest man I have ever met and incredibly creative. He loved Brendan as if he was one of his many grandchildren.

In addition to losing Mr. Glenn and my grandma, my hubby 2 other deaths to cope with. The gentlemen that passed away were pivotal in Brendan's baseball career and I know that when he suits up later this Spring Coach Devore and the other man, who's name escapes me, will be on the forefront of his mind. 

Needless to say both Brendan and I were thankful to see the morning hours of February 1st and leave January behind. February will be fun with 2 weddings of dear friends and a Pat Green concert!
