In Retrospect

A few pictures taken on dave's camera after the wedding, i cant wait til we actually get the real pictures.

At the luncheon. The food was so good. I dont know how to make roman chicken, but it was... heavenly.

work is like a snail... it goes way too slow.

Honeymoon

So while i am waiting for david to get out of class- one of the two we dont have together, i thought i would put some pictures on. We didnt take very many on our honeymoon. I hate taking pictures when there are tons of people around and you have to inconvenience someone else to take it.

The Bellagio gardens. This is a huge birdcage, cool place, crappy photo.

The Venetian mall umbrellas.

Ok, so its been a long time since ive been able to post anything... So i figure i need to make the time if im gonna keep this up. To start out- an apology for the drought of our blog posts. David doesnt write posts, and thats where it all falls to me. Becuase of the wedding, i think ill claim insanity for the 3 months of summer, especially the month july. There were so many things to do, and it was so frustrating feeling like i couldnt stay organized and on top of everything. Anyway. Its all over now, and its not really important to give a play by play, because it was a stressful time and now we've moved on to bigger an better stress. School started and its great. David and i have most of our classes together which is awesome. I love having him there to ask questions. I work at Salon K, and love it so much more than Dallas Roberts. Sorry no pictures today. But maybe we'll have some soon.

So we just started this blog, and it feels a little weird to be honest. Kinda voyeristic. But i am definitely one of those people that go's and reads all my friends blogs. So here goes, for all my voyeristic friends who want to know whats going on in the deep dark places of our minds, i present: OUR BLOG.

Wedding update number one: We are still engaged. :) nothing new there.

Update numer dwa (pronounced, noo-mair d-va, its polish, like my fiance) All the plans are going well, and are almost done. We have about 7 weeks ahead of us, and stress levels for a wedding in my family are at an all time low.

The only thing im worried about is whether my parents house is going to be ready, along with the bridesmaid dresses. After david and i got engaged my parents decided that this was the opportune time to pull out all the carpet in the dining room and on our staircase, and put new real hardwood floors in, none of that laminate stuff... I thought it was a great idea, until i found out they were going to be doing it all themselves. Ahh... home renovators. Do-it-yourselfers... i salute you...except when you have a wedding to host... in your house in two months. *SIGH* Now the bridesmaid dresses come into play because about a week into the engagement i decided to start looking for everything... including bridesmaid dresses. Can i just tell you... the colors of the fashion season are definitely not brown, blue, or green.

So my genius idea was for my mom to make the dresses i envisioned. She, of course, thought it was a great idea. So we bought the fabric, and now its just sitting because my parents are still working on the staircase. So now 7 weeks til the wedding, and neither are completed. Here's to hoping... Stay tuned to find out when it will all be finished... i know i will.

Along with trying to find my bridesmaid dresses that first week, we tried to find a photographer... We were successful in that field. He is amazing... his name is Jimmy Bishop with Gideon Photography, click here for his website, or here for his blog (look under engagements and we were his first post on this blog if you want to see more photos). We were lucky to have gotten our engagements done super early, about 6 weeks ago. Ever since then both of us have been absolutely obsessed with them.

The reason i bring this up is because lately i have been putting them in a scrapbook for the wedding and its been so hard trying to choose which ones to use! I love the little crafty projects though, its fun when David gets involved too. He sits down with me and helps me cut things out and gives his opinion on which pictures go best with which scrapbooking paper. I have my own little Christopher Lloyd (minus being bald, small, and overly opinionated about the need to fill a room with furniture and chotchkies, oh yeah and he isnt gay). I love it. He has adopted all of my hobbies, and loves to go shopping with me. Its perfect!

Its not so fun right now though

becuase i work in the afternoons and evenings and he works from 2am til about 1pm. Crappy hours, but gotta have the moolah...

Anyway, i think thats all for now... i'll let you know when the need to vent in written form bubbles forth.
