Quick Update!

So, I thought I would update the blog. I have been a little negligent in my blogging duties. Things have been busy! The boys are full swing into baseball now- we have already done 2 tournaments (Go Bombers! They just placed 1st in the opening city tournament! Go Dragons- they are undefeated and looking to dominate their league!!), and several games. Whew- I get tired just thinking about them all!!



So, the house is moving along. I have been picking out lights, flooring, and furniture like crazy! I guess now it is time to start spending that money…after saving for it so long, it is a little sad to actually have to start spending it! But I am excited to have nice, new things!



So, the wedding planning is at a nice place right now. We are ahead of schedule on the plans. My photographer just recently shot a small wedding at our venue. The link to her blog about it (including some pictures) is here. I am very excited about the idea of having such an awesome photographer taking pictures of us at such an awesome location!



Speaking of pictures, I have booked us to take our engagement pics, and I can’t wait. I think it will be fun- I am hoping for a nice, fun time- I love the idea of getting some cute, fun shots in addition to the typical romantic ones. I hope they come out the way I am envisioning them!



So, I am looking for good suggestions for that old-time (or new with old time sound), classic romance music- think Nat King Cole, Michael Buble, Diana Krall, etc., that would be fun for a wedding. I also would love any ideas for other fun music to put on my playlists for the wedding. So, if you have any ideas, please let me know!



Thanks!

It Looks Like A House

So, we have been working on the house, and as promised, I am posting some pictures!  Here are the most recent pictures I have taken of the house.  The framers will be finished framing it out this week- how crazy is that!  Anyways, here they are!!!

WE HAVE A DATE & A VENUE!

Yay!  So, we really have a date & a venue now!  I am so happy! 

We are getting married June 22, 2011 in Del Mar, California at the L'Auberge Del Mar.  I can't wait! 

On a different note- our house is underway!  They have been framing, and it looks like a real house is going to be there now, and not just a pile of dirt!  I have not downloaded the pictures yet, but as soon as I do (hopefully later on today), I will upload them here.  I am just thrilled!

I hope this finds you all having a great and wonderful Easter- blessings & peace to you all, and may this day of rejoicing be filled with love & joy!
