Our life in a nutshell...

Don’t you hate when people start blogs, convince you to read said blog, get you excited (or even the least bit interested) in their life and then out of no where they stop blogging and you're left stranded without any inclination of what they are doing....Are they alive? How are their wedding plans coming along? Do Ron and Bethany not eat anymore because I haven't seen a new recipe in weeks? Ok, maybe that was a bit over the top and not that any of you reading really "care" that I haven't blogged for over a month; however, I still feel like I am slacking on my ONE resolution for the year.

Work has pretty much consumed my days, nights and weekends lately as it is my busiest time of the year. If I can just get through the next couple of weeks and a few more events, it will be smooooooooth sailing for the rest of year, per se. Knowing how crazy my spring workload would be, Ron and I worked hard to get a lot of big ticket items planned or booked for the wedding back in the fall and winter. Come June, we can start all the DIY crafting and fun projects. J

So what have the last few weeks entailed, you ask? Here's a quick recap of what we have been up to.
  • Booked our DJ and got a phenomenal deal on the price and package.
  • The search for an apartment/condo/townhouse/house has begun. We are not ready buy anything quite yet but are very interested in renting (possibly a house) for another year or two.
  • Wedding invitation design/concept has been finalized. I found my inspiration via Pinterest, of course, and created an invitation that fits perfectly with our theme. 
  • Linen colors have been chosen and they are FABULOUS!
  • Went on another walk through with our caterer at Danada House and semi finalized the layout of the cocktail reception, guest book room (yes, we have a whole room dedicated to it) and then of course, the atrium where dinner and dancing will take place. J
  • And last but not least, Ron has started to pack and get ready for his move at the end of the month. He'll be moving home to save some money until we get married. 
That's been our life in a nutshell. I can't wait to have my evenings and weekends back and I'm sure Ron will be happy to have a break from attending all my events. J He's such a good sport. Up next on our agenda is a wine festival and specialty food tasting in early June. Stay tuned for that blog post.

Only 162 days to go...
