for our loyal reader

apparently there are people out there who read this thing, or at least 1 future sister-in-law anyway! ah let's see what we need to catch you up on...
  • we bought a townhouse in brentwood! it's 3 beds, 2.5 baths, 1 car garage, about 1500 sq. ft. we're super excited we could afford something like that, and can't wait to move in. it hasn't been built yet, so we got to customize everything and pick our own upgrades. we'll put up with apartment dwelling until november and then we get to move to the first place we can officially call "home."
  • invitations were mailed out yesterday. a whole lot of stuffin, lickin, and stickin. now you get to send them back. don't worry -- we addressed and put the stamp on them for you! just fill out the card, donate some saliva, and drop it in the box.
  • the dog/cat merging hasn't progressed at all. i have scratches on my arm, and blue has scabs on his nose. i don't know what we're gonna do. anybody want some cats?!? (hopefully meg won't read this either!)
  • i love wedding showers! megan goes away for a couple of hours and comes back with a car-full of stuff. then i get to put that year of unloading chick-fil-a trucks experience to use finding the best way to fit everything into a tight space. there need to be showers for men, except you'd call them something manly like... i dunno. but you'd get tools and man toys.

that's all i've got for now. we're under 2 months away, so a lot more will be happening in the next few weeks. we'll try to keep you up to date!

showers, fittings and houses

So, it's been awhile since we've last posted...sorry for the delay! In that time we have traveled to both Iowa and Georgia and attended 2 showers. In my opinion, showers are great wonderful things where old, embarrassing stories are told, but you get wonderful presents out of the deal! I thank everyone for the wonderful gifts that we received!

Meanwhile, we travel ever closer to the wedding day! The blogger has it all marked out, but I believe we're at like 9 1/2 weeks!!! That is absolute craziness! Everything is coming together though, and I'm really not stressing too much. We have to finalize tux selections, address and send out invitations, and have one last planning session at Cedarwood before it's all said and done.

I have my first dress fitting this week, so that's pretty exciting! I'm not exactly sure what takes place at a dress fitting, but I'm taking along a good friend who also has no idea what's going on so it'll be a good time!

In other news, we're working on buying a house. Round one didn't go through as planned, so we're back to square one and ready to start looking again. I have to say, for being a buyers market things aren't dropping as much as you would expect. But, we've found some good possible contenders so we'll see how that all goes!

Other than that, there's not much new...maybe Jason will post with more interesting stories!!! :)
