Our New Toy

John and I decided to buy ourselves a fancy camera for Christmas.  We have been talking about getting one for awhile now so when we couldn't think of anything to get for Christmas...bingo!  We wanted something that we could use on vacations and also I wanted a SLR camera.  Since most SLR cameras are big we were excited to find the Sony Nex5N that was a compact SLR.  We love it!  Here are a few pics we took this weekend of our beloved Charley!  Can't wait to get to Italy and take some awesome pictures...oh and to learn how to use this thing!

Merry Christmas to all of our family and friends from the Isom/Cannons (can't wait until its just one name)!

143 Days...but who's counting?

Wow in less than 5 months I will be Elissa Cannon!  Crazy to think about and even stranger to see it written out!  I could not be more excited for the day to come.  I have started posting some links to the right with Wedding information and will try to keep the blog updated on information for our guests.  This week we sent out our Xmas Card/Save the Date and working with the lady that is doing our invitations to finish up final touches.  John and I also have finished registering which I have to say was very overwhelming and we are both glad we are done with that!  We also have scheduled our food tasting, my hair trial, have looked at tuxes (pretty sure we know what we are going with) and booked 2 of our hotels while in Italy for the honeymoon (3 more to go! Still looking for a hotel in Venice, Florence and Paris...suggestions welcome!)

The next few weeks are filled with holiday festivities.  John and I have so much to be thankful for this year and are looking forward to spending time with our family and friends.  With all the hustle and bustle of wedding planning it will be nice to take a break and relax with our loved ones.
