Let's start at the very beginning...

Hello, great big blog world... here I am. :)  

So... I've decided to join the blogging community, because soon I will have family living all across the country who will want to hear all about Robert's and my life here together.  And they want to be kept up to date on wedding plans.  And see pictures of us and our new home (if we ever find a place to live, that is).  And... not gonna lie... I just like to talk. :)  

Here's where we are right now:  I have SO much to do!!  Still waiting for confirmation from the reception site lady, who promised (2 1/2 weeks ago) that she was putting us on the calendar to reserve the site for our date... yeah, I haven't heard anything more from her... such as the rental agreement she was going to mail us.  Hope we're still on the calendar, because we ordered invitations on Friday, and put them down as the place for our reception! 

I confirmed the menu for the reception yesterday, which is one more thing to cross off the list... it's so satisfying to accomplish the little things.  Or is food a big thing?  In any case, it's taken care of.  :)

Speaking of food, mom and I tasted the most AMAZING cake at the wedding expo a couple weeks ago.  I'm not telling what kind it is, but I wanted to go back for seconds.  You're gonna have to show up at the wedding to taste it.  Seriously.  Amazing.  Cake.  I can't wait to eat it again. 

I tried my dress on again last weekend, just to see what it looks like again.  I'm still in love with it, and I want to wear it everywhere.  However, I don't want my sister Shari to help me into it again.  She stuck her hand in my armpit to pull the dress up, and it was a strange feeling.  I love you sister, but no thank you. :) 

Robert and I are still looking for a place to live.  The lease on my apartment is up at the end of March, so I'm hoping to not be homeless.  We're watching craigslist for rental houses (I am SO done with living in apartments!), and looked at a beautiful, brand-new house last weekend. We're still trying to decide what to do.  I, of course, think with my heart and fell in love with the house immediately.  My sweet fiance thinks with his head and is still weighing the options. He's just the best. :)

Well, I think that's where we're at for now.  Thinking about the details overwhelms me, but at the same time, thrills me.  My future is a happy place.  I'm so blessed.
