So, we just passed the one year countdown (October 20). How exciting! But a little nervewracking. A year seems like a long time, but there's a lot to do in this year. On Friday, all night I was thinking - at this time in one year we'll be at the ceremony. At this time in one year we'll be married! At this time in one year, we'll be at our reception ( Read more... )

We signed the contract for our reception site yesterday.  The wedding will be October 20 of next year!  Next up is to find a place for the actual ceremony.  Hopefully not as stressful as the first part.  Last night Lauren, Matt, Michele and I went to DTE to see Blake Shelton and Trace Adkins.  Good concert!  Even Michele, the country-hater, was ( Read more... )

I put a hold on the place.  Now I just want my parents to see it before we decide, but I think it's a done deal.    Major weight off my shoulders. How super exciting!!!  Once that's confirmed, deposit in, it's time to start deciding the other things (cake, flowers, and the million other details).  Let the good times roll!

I've spent the last week looking nonstop for wedding/reception locations.  I have looked at 21 different places.  Finally, on Friday, I think I found one!  Now we just have to figure out if we can afford it.  Keep your fingers crossed for me!!

All I can think about is the wedding.  People are seriously asking such detailed questions already.  I' ( Read more... )

Matt proposed last night.  I'm getting married!!!!

After all this time being careful to not burn for Lauren's wedding....I have been careful at work....on vacation....over weekends....know where I got burned?  Lauren's bridal shower.  Bummer.  Hopefully it lightens, but it happened today, and although I'm not hurting at all, its really dark and noticable.  I especially love how it's in the shape of ( Read more... )

Got a new car today.  Its awesome.  I am feeling a bit of separation anxiety though, and I miss Jane.  I'll bond with my new car too I suppose, right?

I've had an annoying day.  Work was fine.  Went to Lovers Lane to pick up a present for Lauren's personal shower.  Stressed over what to buy way too much.  Seriously.  Spent an hour there.  Went to Saturn for an oil change and to get a shaking in my car checked out.  Oil change - fine.  But, they said my rotors have been turned once, so they can't ( Read more... )

I was stuck.  Now I'm not.  I've lost 31.5 pounds to date.  Yay!
